June Time! Rose Time! 
Now is the winter of your discontent 
made glorious summer by the myriad 
roses blooming in regal splendor 
across your garden. Now comes the 
time of the fullest enjoyment of Na¬ 
ture’s most beautiful gift. And now 
comes the time to take special care 
of your blooms to preserve them in 
their greatest abundance. 
In June remember to pick your Roses. 
As beautiful as roses are upon their 
graceful stems they are equally beautiful 
upon your table and in your rooms. 
Frequently-cut roses bloom more freely. 
Watch for the rose beetle and rose slug. 
They come in June. Spray every ten days 
for three weeks with a half pound of 
arsenate of lead to ten gallons of water. 
About June 10, begin to nourish the Teas 
and Hybrid Teas with liquid manure. 
June 20, look for mildew. Upon its first 
appearance apply, with a dust gun. “All 
in one” (we have it), a ground dust mix¬ 
ture consisting of 90 parts sulphur and 
10 parts of arsenate of lead. Repeat the 
dose in a week if necessary.

work out of mowing lawns. Light—

easily as a rake. Cuts lawn perfectly 
-—leaves no wheel marks or ridges—trims close 
to walls, trees, etc. No hand trimming necessary. 
Simple—Durable—Entirely Different 
MontaMower is the result of ten years develop¬ 
ment—no gears—no long blades to get out of order 
or break—eight pair of circular, toothed cutters 
driven by eight wheels shear the grass evenly. 
MontaMower is built overstrength—made from 
finest steel—cutters will last from two to four years 
without replacing or sharpening. Can be easily 
replaced at very small cost. 
Light — Handles as Easily as a Rake 
Weighs only 7'/2 lbs.—can be operated by a woman 
or child without effort—easily carried to and from 
basement. Practically silent in operation. Thou¬ 
sands of satisfied owners all over the country. 
Unlike ordinary mower 
MontaMower trims cleanly 
right up to walls, fences, etc. 
MontaMower leaves no 
fringe around trees to be cut 
by hand. 
“Our MontaMower attracted quite a number of on¬ 
lookers and all were interested in the rapid manner in 
which this mower cut down the thick grass.” 
Our files are full of similar expressions from enthusiastic users.
