In Knowing 
WHEN, 
WHERE 
and 
WHAT 
You Planted. 
Labels are-the “systematizers 
that help you keep track of 
your Garden, and here you have 
a complete assortment of more 
than 300 GARDEN LABELS 
from the little 3^-inch copper- 
wired one for marking individ¬ 
ual trees, shrubs or plants, to 
the big 12-inch Label for mark¬ 
ing Garden rows, — indeed, a 
Label for every purpose and 
two marking pencils. 
Also you must have straight rows in 
the Garden for straight rows grow better, 
look better, and “work” easier with the 
gain in space that comes with orderly ar¬ 
rangement. So in this same box you will 
find coiled ioo feet of the VERY BESI 
BRAIDED COTTON GARDEN LINE. 
The LABELS, GARDEN LINE and 
PENCILS are very substantially and at¬ 
tractively packed in a hardwood box. 
A MOST ACCEPTABLE, USEFUL 
AND UNIQUE GIFT. 
The Price is $3.75: All Delivery Charges Paid.

It isn’t a Palace 
Nor is it a Shack 
W E have more than twenty-five feet frontage 
but still we’re pretty close to our neighbors. 
Just the same, people will stop to admire our 
house. Architecturally it isn’t extraordinary. 
What makes them do it? 
The lawn. If we ever had good judgment it was when we 
decided to invest in a few plants and shrubs. The founda¬ 
tions needed something badly. Our clothes line and garage, 
visible from the street, looked better hidden. 
Moon’s Nurseries were called on. They were very kind. 
First their catalogue. Then many helpful hints on what best 
suited our particular stone foundation. Moon’s even showed 
us how to make our lawn look much bigger by an ingenious 
arrangement of plants. The cost wasn t much, and it has 
immeasurably improved the appearance and value of our 
property. 
We know they can and will help you if you will ask. Moon s have a 
tree or plant for every place and purpose. This is Spring planting 
time. Write for Catalogue B-4.”

Every American Fence 
Expresses 
A Personality 
O UR fences are not con¬ 
tent to just “surround 
property." They aim to ex¬ 
press distinctly, the motif 
that reflects itself, in the 
home and grounds. 
To you, whose feeling 
for the “eternal fitness of 
things” does not comfort¬ 
ably brook even a fence as 
a “non-conformist,” the 
wide range of expressive 
American Fences which 
you may select from, will 
appeal to you. 
From the strictly practical 
standpoint, these thoroughly 
well-made fences, will fulfil 
your most exacting require¬ 
ments. They will effectually 
protect and remain free from 
repair needs practically in¬ 
definitely. 
Send us a brief description 
of the location you desire to 
fence. Our Service Department 
will then at once make sugges¬ 
tions as to the most logical 
meeting of your particular re¬ 
quirements. Suggestions chat 
will be accompanied by illustra¬ 
tions and prices. 
This Advisory Service is en¬ 
tirely free of charge or obliga¬ 
tion. 
Our Book of Fences is yours 
for the asking.
