It Really Soaks the Soil 
SOIL-SOAKER is a simple device for efficiently watering lawns or 
shrubbery with the deep-soaking method which Drumcliff has always 
advocated. 
The device is a light canvas hose or tube. One end is fitted to attach 
to your garden hose; the other end is closed. When the water is turned 
on the tube fills up, then the pressure causes the water to SEEP THROUGH 
the pores of the canvas throughout the entire length of the tube and 
sink slowly into the ground. 
No fine spray squirting into the hot, dry air to evaporate; no water 
wasted by falling on sidewalks or other areas where it is not wanted. Water 
goes on s-l-o-w-l-y and steadily; soaks in deep.

Soil-Soaker can be used effectively even in the strongest No. 1 
wind; saves water; prevents washing of loose soil; no chance No. 2 
to annoy pedestrians by sprinkling the sidewalk or passersby. é 
Easily moved from place to place. Made of canvas scien- 
tifically treated to resist mildew. May be twisted around 
trees or shrubs to put water just where you want it. 

TERRACE- 
How to water — 
your Lawn for 
best results 
If you cannot give the entire lawn a 
thorough soaking in the same day, divide 
your lawn into definite sections and water 
one section each day. Remember, fre- 
quent light sprinkling is a waste of time 
and water and may harm your lawn. 
If your soil is heavy and does not absorb 
water as rapidly as it falls, remove the 
sprinkler as soon as you see the water is 
running off the surface or lying in pools. 
Sprinkle another section, then return to the 
first section after the first application has 
soaked in. 
Watering in late afternoon or early eve- 
ning avoids some surface evaporation (and 
resulting waste of water) but don’t be 
afraid to water your lawn during the day. 
A morning shower of rain will not destroy 
your lawn; neither will your artificial 
shower do so. 
Water the lawn after mowing, not just 
before. 
Soak the lawn thoroughly every seven 
or eight days in normal weather; every 
four or five days in hot, dry weather. Omit 
sprinkling when Nature does it for you. 
When seed is newly planted, keep the 
surface soil moist continuously with a 
fine mist spray until the seedlings are one 
or two inches high. Do not flood or soak 
new plantings but keep them moist. Never 
let newly planted ground become hard, 
dry or caked. 
Water thoroughly immediately after 
applying fertilizer. The feeding does your 
lawn no good until water carries it to 
the plant roots. 
Water more heavily or more frequently 
under large trees. 
The most effective method we have yet discovered for 
watering difficult areas such as terraces and narrow parking. 
Works equally well on lawns, shrubbery, flower beds and
