Something more than 
servants. A little less 
than friends — these as¬ 
tonishing little electrical 
appliances — that wait 
only on a touch or turn 
to whirl instantly to 
work. 
They’ll do anything— 
the family laundry—the 
family toast—and there’s 
a very clever one that 
puts a wave in the hair 
of the really important 
half of any household. 
You needn’t know much 
of the mechanics, the 
armatures, the different 
currents. But as house 
executive you should 
know where to buy the 
electrical aids and house¬ 
hold equipment listed be¬ 
low. What they will do, 
their limitations, possi¬ 
bilities, and operating 
costs. 
Check the ones below you 
wish to know about and 
send it to House & 
Garden. You will receive 
a surprising amount of 
information that has 
been gathered for your 
use.

PUT UP A WEATHERVANE 
It gives your country place a 
touch of rare individuality 
which makes it easy for week 
end motorists to find you. 
It tells which way the wind is 
blowing—a point of increas- 
ing information in these days 
of private airplane owners. 
A Wcathervane is an unusual 
decoration particularly if the 
designs come from

THE ORIGIN OF GARDEN BEAUTY 
Many country places of great size owe the brilliance of 
their grounds to my garden at Mayfair. The owners 
have visited me during the height of the Tulip or Nar¬ 
cissus season; after seeing my displays they realize that 
‘‘Cream Quality” bulbs are necessary to every finished 
estate. 
The Blue Book of Bulbs 
gives the family history of almost every bulb it lists. It 
also contains valuable cultural directions, with comprehensive 
lists of varieties. You need only ask for it to get a copy.
