"Sunshine Shop” 
That’s Its Name 
I T’S called that, because after all, that’s what it really is. 
It’s just one of the cheeriest, sunniest of garden spots 
imaginable. 
A place where, say what you will, cares have a way of slipping off. 
You ask why? 
There’s but one answer. 
It’s wholesoineneSs. 
The digging in the dirt a bit and playing with vour flower friends, 
has no equal for putting you on the sunny side of the street. 
But quite the best of all, the whole family share in the joys of 
the flowers grown. 
For its very modest price —and it certainly is modest —there is 
now no reason why you can’t have this Sunshine Shop. 
Send for the Sunshine Shop Circular, or for our general catalogue 
of larger houses. 
They fully give the facts. 
We build everything, from this modest little Sunshine Shop to 
the finest and largest ranges of greenhouses.

The First Really New 
Lawnmower for Generations 
Ten years of experiment and development were 
necessary to perfect MontaMower. Simple, durable, 
built to give satisfaction and long service. Light— 
handles as easy as a rake. Weighs only 7Jibs.— 
operated by a woman or child without effort—prac¬ 
tically noiseless. 
Trims and Cuts at Same Time 
MontaMower is so designed that it cuts right up to walls, 
trees, etc.—no fringe left—no handwork necessary. Cuts grass 
perfectly—leaves no marks or ridges does not pick up sticks 
or stones. Thousands of satisfied owners. 
Easily Kept Sharp 
MontaMower cutters resharpen themselves like scissors they 
will last from two to four years. At end of that time cutters 
can be replaced by new ones at no more expense than sharp¬ 
ening ordinary lawnmower. 
The MontaMower has one qualification in common with ordi¬ 
nary lawnmowers. It will not operate satisfactorily in wet, 
swampy places nor in loose sand. The best results are obtained 
by cutting the grass when it is fairly dry. 
^ Weeds 
Weeds—must go! They sap the garden’s fertility, keep back 
the cultivated crop. Getting rid of weeds becomes a pleasant 
pastime with the good help of 
Gilson DUBL-DUTI KIL- WEED Kultivator

blade is sharp on both sides.
