streets, our parks, and our playgrounds. No grounds can even approach completeness without

Measured in beauty and time-saving Hicks Big Evergreens are the cheapest investment you can make. 
You can get them by the truck-load or car-load, and know they will live—we guarantee them.

of international reputation prefer and use Hodgson

way. They are properly ventilated and yet can be 
comfortably heated in the coldest weather. 
Feeding, egg gathering, watering and cleaning can 
be accomplished far more easily where Hodgson 
Poultry Houses are in use. And they are practical 
and easy to erect. Send for catalogue X, which will
