Boot Bee Smokers Always Smoke 
The Root smoker bellows is bound by a pro¬ 
jecting metal strips to give a hand-hold—a very 
great help in handling the smoker. The Root 
smokers have an anti-spark device that prevents 
sparks being blown out the draft tube to start 
possible fires, and also prevents smoke being 
sucked into the bellows where smoke would de¬ 
stroy the leather.

OUR SILVER JUBILEE 
We are this year celebrating our 
quarter centennial and take this op¬ 
portunity to thank our many friends 
for their loyalty during all these years 
and also to the still greater number 
whom we have been privileged to 
serve for a less number of years. Our 
great aim has always been quality and 
the public may rest assured that our 
efforts in the future will be doubled, 
if possible, in order that we may ren¬ 
der better serve by supplying a higher 
quality of seeds. 
We are looking forward with plea¬ 
sure to the next twenty-five years of 
service as we confidently expect that, 
with the experience gained the past 
twenty-five years, together with the ex¬ 
perience to be gained in the next fu¬ 
ture years through a fuller research of 
the untold and unthought of possibili¬ 
ties of development in the seed busi¬ 
ness, will enable us to produce two 
blades of grass where only one has 
grown before.
