of building there, but have been dismayed by thought of 
labor, time and cost.

Hodgson cottages, bungalows, garages, playhouses, bird-

How Does Your , 
Garden Grow? 
V. 
G ARDENING becames even more fascinat¬ 
ing when you use Planet Jr. seeders and 
wheel hoes. They reduce the drudgery of plant¬ 
ing, hoeing and weeding, and keep the garden 
level, clean and flourishing. The Planet Jr. 
No 17 single wheel hoe is a particular favorite. 
It runs very lightly and you can guide it handily 
to root out lurking weeds. You’ll wonder how 
you ever managed without your Planet Jr. wheel 
hoe once you know the pleasure of running one. 
You’ll be delighted at the improved results 
you’ll get. 
Your local seedsman, hardware store or im¬ 
plement dealer can show you several popular 
Planet Jr. models. Or write for catalogue and 
choose from its interesting pages the Planet Jr. 
model best suited to your garden.
