"I ^ fHAT constitutes real 
^ ’ value in Garden 
Hose? What kinds of 
Garden Hose are best to 
buy? How long should 
Hose last ? 
There is much confusion 
and misconception on these 
points. The fundamental 
facts^ briefly stated^ are: 
Garden Hose seldom wears out. It 
usually dies and falls to pieces. To 
give long service it must be built 
right, and to insure that it is built 
right the buyer must choose a stand¬ 
ard brand made and guaranteed by a 
reliable house. 
Garden Hose is of two kinds—sheeting 
hose and moulded hose. Sheeting hose is 
five, six or seven ply according to the num¬ 
ber of layers of strong rubberized sheeting 
wrapped around a seamless tube and finally 
enclosed in a rubber casing or cover. 
Moulded hose is made by vulcanizing seam¬ 
less tubes of rubber with double braided 
jackets of tightly twisted cotton. It is a 
heavier type construction than sheeting hose 
which is lighter and more fiexible. Each 
variety has its strong advocates. We de¬ 
scribe on this page the three leading brands 
on the American market, each the leader 
in its class. 
Good Luck Hose 
GOOD LUCK hose is similar in con¬ 
struction to BULL DOG but is slightly 
lighter. It has six plies and is strong 
enough to stand high pressure and 
tough enough for hard service. It 
is light and easily handled and will 
wear for a long time. 
Made in 25 ft. or 50 ft. lengths as desired, 
each wrapped with paper like an auto tire. 
Bull Dog Hose 
has seven plies of strong rubberized 
sheeting, the highest grade tube of 
any hose made and a tough all rubber 
cover that wears like iron. It was 
the original multiple construction 
garden hose and money can not buy 
a better quality. It has been on the 
market forty years and letters come 
to us frequently telling of lengths in 
service from fifteen to twenty years. 
BULL DOG costs more than ordinary 
hose but it is the best investment 
in 
Made in 25 ft. or 50 ft. lengths as desired, 
each wrapped with paper like an auto tire. 
MILO 
A corrugated moulded hose, the 
most popular brand in its class. 
Your dealer can cut it to any de¬ 
sired length. If you prefer 
moulded hose by all means specify 
MILO for its high quality and splen¬ 
did construction.
