Patented Ventilated cone 
shaped plant cover 
SAGE HI-CAPS 
THE NEW VENTILATED PLANT PROTECTOR 
Taller than others, these 12-inch high covers give growing plants more 
protection and over a longer growing period. Especially adapted to 
Tomatoes and Peppers, as well as all other vegetables. 
A more even temperature is maintained and overheating of the plant 
prevented, by the ventilation opening at the top. This produces hardier 
plants which give earlier and better crops. This ventilating feature also 
permits inspection of the growth of the plants and gives easy access for 
dusting. 
For the small gardener, these Hi-Caps are now available in handy 
packets of 20 and 50 caps complete with cardboard setter. 
Prices 
20 Hi-Caps with Setter $ .50 250 Hi-Caps with Setter $3.75 
50 Hi-Caps with Setter 1.00 1000 Hi-Caps only. 10.50
