ROYAL MISTYFIER—‘‘Better than Rain”’ 
The most practical and 
dependable sprinkler we 
know for both lawns and 
gardens. It throws a very 
fine misty spray over a con- 
siderable area, and the water 
settles right down into the 
soil without washing. It will 
not damage delicate blos- 
soms or wash out seeds, yet 
it will put on an enormous 
amount of water, in the way 
that does the most good. 
Rustproof, no moving 
parts, no pinpoint nozzles to clog, works at all pressures. 
$1.25 each transportation paid.

HOTKAPS and HOTENTS 
Hotkaps and Hotents are scientifically constructed wax paper cones which act 
as miniature hot houses when placed over the plant or hill of seed in the field. By 
using them the plants can be set out or the seed sown as soon as the ground gets 
warm, as they afford protection from frosts; this means earlier crops and better 
yields. In the home garden, Hotkaps and Hotents help to take the risk of disap- 
pointment out of early planted crops, and often enable the user to get fine early 
crops ready to eat weeks ahead of the neighbors. 
These practical field forcers are so constructed that when properly set they will 
withstand very heavy winds and beating rains. In addition they keep the plants 
safe from insect pests and are especially good for melons, cucumbers and other vine 
crops because the striped cucumber beetles which do so much damage to the young 
plants are kept out until the plants have become well established. 
Hotkaps and Hotents keep the soil around the plant in per- 
fect condition conserving soil moisture and preventing it from 
baking. They are especially recommended for vine crops and are 
ideal for early sweet corn growers as they permit earlier planting 
and earlier crops.

FERTILE POTS 
For Better, Earlier Crops 
Our new improved formula for these pots makes them better than 
ever! In cooperation with the manufacturer we have worked out a better 
proportion of manure to provide for a more even, steady growth of the 
plants. Seeds may be sowed directly in the pots or young plants may be 
transplanted into them. They will produce strong sturdy plants of cab- 
bage, cucumbers, melons, tomatoes, peppers and other crops and when 
set out these plants actually produce better and earlier vegetables. 
The pots are not removed in setting out. Simply set pot and all in the 
ground and the roots grow through the pot without being disturbed or 
checked in growth. The pot slowly breaks down, furnishing valuable 
plant food. 
We grow and ship all our own potted plants in No. 21% Fertile Pots, 
and they are used in large quantities by practical successful growers. 
The pots do not deteriorate in storage and may be kept indefinitely.
