you’ll get disgusted with the old-fashioned 
hoe. There is only one tool with which 
every stroke counts, and that is 
The Gilson Weeder 
So light that a child can work it with ease. 
So thorough in its work that it never misses 
a weed. So easy to operate that even the 
beginner can do more and better work with 
it than can the “old hand” with a regular 
hoe. 
See the Gilson at your seed store or write 
us for special circular and dealer’s address.
