Mew THInGeGs “FOR 19023.

NEW CUCUMBER, THE ‘‘CUMBERLAND.”

This hand- some cucumber is the result of eight years’

careful breed- ing by one of the leading growers in the Ras GE RE: er ays Ss United States. ites aod - It isacross of Parisian Pickle and Peerless White Spine, the successful combination of these two varieties making an ideal variety both for table use and for pickling. The vines are of strong, vigorous growth and very productive. The fruits, which are of handsome appear- ance, grow to a desirable size, very straight, firm, solid and crisp. Color is a rich pea- green, and flavor very fine, either when eaten sliced in the raw state, or after they have been pickled. Pkt. 10c; 0z. 30c; $ lb. 80c.

EBELING’S NEW BLOOD TURNIP BEET.

Description of Ebeling’s New Blood Turnip Beet you ordered from us this season: It is an early variety; the root is nearly round and is scarcely one-half in the earth. The skin is of a very dark red color and the flesh bright red. The leaf is long green foliage, spotted and striped in brown red. The root is about as long as that of the Detroit Dark Red Beet. Price 75c per lb ; oz. 10c. Yours truly, ANDREW LEROY & Co., Successors.

EBELING’S CRIMSON GIANT FORCING TURNIP RADISH.

This new Radish which I have the pleasure to offer to my customers for the season 1903 is an entirely new type, and differs radically from all the varieties hitherto in cultivation in so far as it grows more than double the size of those of other forcing varieties, without getting pithy or hollow.

Such sorts as Non Plus Ultra or Scarlet Globe measure 2 to 3 inches in circumference and weighs ¥ oz ; once passed this size they are unfit for use. The new Giant Radish, however, develops roots of 6 to 7 inches in circum- ference and over an ounce in weight, their pure white flesh remaining firm and crisp and of the mildest flavour, but notwithstanding the extraordinary size and weight of its bulbs it is secord to none as a forcing variety. .

The Crimson Giant Forcing Radish varies a little as to form, some of the routs being round and others inclining to oval, but its beautiful deep crimson color is quite constant. Packets only this season, 25 cents per packet.

THE DELICIOUS SQUASH.

The Delicious is the product of years in careful selection, crossing and isolating. About every known variety enters into its composition. We have been for years engaged in selecting by the test of cooking the richest among the class bearing a gr-en color, and these we crossed with the Hubbard. From the resulting cross we have been selecting each

a season for our seed stock the thickest meated specimens and the very best for quality. The result is a squash that by uni- versal agreement surpasses the Hubbard and Marblehead. Its color is almost uniformly of a green shade, with occasion- ma, ally a blue specimen, it being

&’ just about as pure in this re- spect as was the original Hub- bard, which weighed between five and ten pounds. In thickness of flesh it surpases nearly every variety the color being a dark orange. For table use no squash compares with it in its remarkable combination of fineness and compactness of grain, dryness, sweetness and exceeding richness of flavor. Itisa fall and winter squash, being excellent at all seasons, but like the old Hubbard, though at any time excellent, does not acquire its best quality until winter. When half grown it will be found to surpass in quality most varieties when fully ripe. Price per packet 20c.

4 F. H. EBELING, SEEDS AND HARDWARE.

EBELING’S The large, white heads resemble cabbage in their solidity. and

frequently weigh two and thr ds each. The quality i

6 oe quently weigh tw ee poun c q y is

WONDERFUL superb, being crisp, rich and tender. It withstands the heat well, LETTUCE. making a fine variety for all seasons. Ounce 25 cents.

ONONDAGA This new early, large, fine oblong, netted, green fleshed Melon was

originated in this city and has become a great favorite with the dealers, MUSK MELON. and much songht for asa table melon. A great yielder, very hardy,

firm fleshed, attractive in appearance, a ready seller— one of the best introductions of recent years. Price, ounce 25 cents; pound §2 00.

WAVERLY The heads are of the cluster type, long and well filled. The straw is usually of a bright, amber color and strong, erect growing, and in ordin- OATS. ary seasons grows somewhat taller than many other varieties of oats.

The grain as will be seen from the sample is exceptionally heavy, with large meaty kernels, and the spiklets usually contain three grains instead of one as in most other varieties. Price $1.25 per bushel.

JAPANESE This new Millet is of Prof. Brooks’ introduction It has been sown all

(Panicum Ve the United States and has given astonishing results,

BARNYARD C -. So rapidly has it advanced in popular favor that the

HES GUN, demand far exceeds the supply. On our New York seed

MILLET. farm it has reached a height of 6 to 7 feet and a yield of 6 tons or more

of cured hay per acre. In Massachusetts it has yielded 21 tons of green

fodder per acre. Asa soiling crop it can be cut three or four times, if not allowed to head.

The stalk, though much larger, is softer and bears double the amount of leaves of the other varieties.

KAFFIR Is the only non-saccharine Sorghum adapted to northern growth. It is not equal to the saccharine varieties for forage but produces a heavier CORN. crop of seed which is valuable as food for poultry and cattle. It thrives in regions of the western states which are too arid for the certain pro- duction of other grains. Culture same as for the saccharine varieties. $1.75 per bushel.

SOJA OR This Bean as yet so little known in the eastern states is of great value

as a forage plant, a soil renovator and food producer. It will grow SOY BEAN wherever white beans flourish and will yield within 90 days from plant-

ing, 8 to 12 tons of green forage more nutritious than clover. Will store in the soil a considerable amount of nitrogen and if allowed to mature will produce from 20 to 60 bushels of beans, richer in protein and having a higher feeding value than any other food grown, for cattle, sheep or swine. The beans should be ground before feeding. Seed should be planted after the ground is thoroughly warm. Drill 28 to 830inches between rows. 10 to 15 quarts per acre. leaving plants 4 tc 6 inches apart in the rows. There is a large and increasing demand for northern grown seed at good prices. Why not save some?

SORGHUM. Early Amber is the earliest and hardest Saccharine Sorghum and

should be sown after the season for corn planting when the ground has become thoroughly warmed. It will thrive on any soil that will produce corn. Prepare the ground as for corn and before sowing the seed, harrow two or three times at intervals of 5 to 7 days to kill weeds. If to be cut for forage, drill the seeds in rows 24to3 feet apart, cover 1} to 2 inches deep, roll the ground after planting and harrow lightly to con- serve moisture. Cultivate as you would corn. If for hay or pasture sow broadcast 1 to1% bushel of seed per acre or drill 10 to 20 pounds with a grain drill.

DWARE The true Dwarf Essex Rape is valuable as a fattening food for pasturing sheep in autumn. It is particularly adapted as a ‘‘catch crop,”’ ESSEX for it grows best late in autumn. In the northern states it can be sown at

any time from May until the end of August, but in the southern states it

RAPE. | should not be sown until September or October for winter pasture. Its

fat ening properties are said to be twice as good asclover. Sow ten or

twelve pounds per acrein drills fifteen inches apart. When sheep are feeding on Rape they should at all times have access to salt. Per pound 8 cents; 100 pounds $6.50.

If in doubt what to grow on your land sow The man who makes two weeds grow where clover seed. You can’t have too much of it | but one grew before by sowing the seed on his and feed it out on the farm. well prepared soil isa fool. Buy clean seed.

Ripens as early and is the best of the Dent varieties, Something that is bound to take the place of the common field sorts with the advantage of its being a much larger yeilder. We havea fine stock. Price $1.25 per bushel.

ALFALFA This vaiuable forage plant should have a place on every farm - where the soil conditions do not prohibit its growth. It can be grown on any fairly well drained ground, a limestone soil being most desirable, and will send its tap root down through permeable soil until it strikes water, depths of 60 feet being reached. While a thin soil above rock has been thought to prevent its successful growth, in our southern states it flourishes on strong lime soils even when the rotten limestone rock comes within a few inches of the surface. In New York State it is grown largely in Onondaga County. It is counted the most valuable forage crep at the State Experimeut Station at Geneva. Where the soil in a heavy clay loam, and throughout the western part of the state there are many well established fields in situations varying from river bottom lands to hill tops.

The FIRST essential in growing Alfalfa is clean soil, the seedling is slender and easily smothered by weeds.

SECOND, sow fresh American grown seed 30 pounds to the acre. The seed may be sown broadcast or drilled in.. Seeding is generally done in the spring and early summer.

THIRD, cut when just commencing to bloom whether the plant be large or small if allowed to form seed the growth of the plant ceases. Three cuttings may be made during the season in this latitude after the plant becomes established.

The yield of hay is from four tons to the acre upward, depending upon the fertility of the soil. The hay is palatable and nutritious, and is composed almost wholly of muscle forming elements and should be fed with corn meal for fattening purposes. Experiment Stations place the feeding value of Alfalfa hay at $20.00 per ton as against Timothy at $12.

SPELTZ This has proven a great success in this neighborhood. Frank : Matty and J. C. Surbeck of this city, and J. P. Tuck of Chitten- ango, N. Y., can be referred to by any who are in doubt. It is neither wheat, rye nor barley, and yet it appears to be a combination of these. It is more like wheat than any others mentjoned. All kindsof animals seem to thrive on it. Yields 80 bushels of richer food than corn, besides giving as much as four tons of good fodder per acre. As a green grass hay food it often gives 100 leafy stalks from one seed, which shows its heavy stooling properties. The heads are somewhat similar to two-rowed barley, the spikelets being separ- ated from each other in such a manner that the crop is not easily injured by the weather. The culture of Speltz is same as for wheat or oats, sow 50 to 60 pounds to the acre. In the green state it makes an excellent pasture. Cut when the grain is past the middle stages of milk, when it will make splendid grain and lots of straw hay of excellent quality. Thresh like wheat, but not so closely. The hull and kernel can then be fed or first ground, Price $1.00 per bushel. .

F. H. EBELING, SEEDS AND HARDWARE. COW PEAS.

The principal varieties grown in the nothern states are the black and whippoorwill, a brown striped pea. ;

Sow after the season for corn planting when the ground is thoroughly warmed. Moet of the failures with this crop have resulted from sowing too early, the seed either rotting or the plants making but a teeble start from: which they never fully recoverand often being choked out by weedx.

The g:ound should be tree from weeds and to make it so, should be harrowed two or three times at intervals of five to seven days before Peas are planied.

Sow 1 to 1% bushels per acre, if broadcast, and if drill d, 20 to 30 lbs.

Drilling 30 inches apart and cultivating between the rows is the best method of culture the plants begin to run they should be allowed to cover the ground.

May be sown with oats for forage. one-third oats, two-thirds peas broadcast.

As far north as Michigan, Cow Peas have made a vine growth of 8 feet and root growth of 5to6 feet, and have matured over 30 bushels of seed per acre.

Sown alter early potatoes are dug, the Peas will make feed in 8 weeks. and leave the land in splendid condition for any succeeding crop.

This plant makes one of the best quick growing cover crops to plow under for enriching the soil.

MUSHROOM SPAWN.

CAMPIGNON, FRENCH. Culture—Mushrooms may be grown in cellars, under benches of greenhouses or in sheds, wherever the temperature of 50 degrees can be kept up throughout the winter. The beds should be made from November to February, according to the time the Mnshrooms are wanted, and it requires about two months for them to begin bearing. Secure fresh hor-e dung, free from straw and litter, and mix with it an equal bulk of loam from an old pasture. Keep this under cover, taking care to turn it every day ~ to prevent heating, until tne pile is large enough to make a bed of the required size. Three or four feet wide, eight inches de+p, and any lenght desired, are the proper proportions for a bed; but these may be varied. Prepare the mixture of loam and manure making the bed in layers and pounding down each with the back ofa spade. Leave this to heat through for a few days and as soonas the heat subsides : to 90 degrees, make holes in the bed abouta an foot apart each way, into which put pieces of === the spawn two or three inches in diameter; fill up the holes with the compost, and at the ex- piration of a week or ten days the spawn will have thoroughly diffused itself through the MUSHROOM BED. bed. Spread a layer of fresh soil over the heap to the depth of two inches. and cover with three or four inches of hay, straw or litter. Examine the bed often tosee that it does notget dry. Take special care however, when water is given, that it beat a temperature of about 100 degrees. Price 25c, perlb. s

_ The improvement in this flower during the last few years is truly wonderful.

The delicate shades to be had in the new Sweet Peas cannot be surpassed by even the rose. To get the Sweet Peain perfection it should be sown early in rich rather moist soil. Dig a trench about eight inches deep, fillin two inches of well rotted manure, then two _ inches cf rich soil in which the Sweet Peas should be sown cover with one inch of soil and as the plants grow keep filling till trench is level. In dry weather cover roots with litter ofany kind to keep moist and cool and you will be well repaid.

The seed may also be sown in a cold frame in April, or open border in the latter part of May, but will not aa so early. _ Transplant or thin out before the plant gets too - large.

CG Sow from ay to June, or in August. in a well prepared bed of light soil, covering — the seed lightly. Keep clear of weeds, and thin out the plants if too thick, dea vit. / early to allow them to develop their growth.

D_ Sow in Spring in a well drained pot or well prepared hot bed of light, peaty or eaae soil. Place in a moderately warm temperature. Shade from bright sunshine and keep moist, transplant when ground is in proper condition, orin open ground after May 10th for late flowers.

F Sow at any time ina pot prepared as follows: Let the ot be one-third full of drain- age or broken charcoal; cover th8 rough siftings of mould, and the surface with very fine soil, half of which should be composed of fine, sharp sand; water with fine sprinkler; scat- ter the seeds thickly over the surface, cover very lightly; keep from direct rays of the sun. As soon as the plant shows the third leaf, transplant into seed pans, three-fourths of an inch apart, giving a little air to strengthen them. When the plants begin to touch each

-other they should’be transplanted singly into small pots and keep them in a cool, airy ai of the green house near the glass. ° Re-pot them when necessary.

The best Lawns of Syracuse show what we are doing to promote this good work in our midst. For years we have studied the nature of grasses, their adaptation to soils, height, color, etc., with this object in view. We use in our mixture only grasses that harmonize in color and size, using both early and late varieties, that our lawns may remain green and beautiful all through the season. We are sure there is no better mixture for lawns than ours. Our Lawn Seed is Strictly Pure. We examine every variety under a glass hefore we mix them, that our lawn seed may be free from foul weeds. We use only fibrous rooted perennial grasses that will stand the drouth and close cutting without injury. We select grasses that harmonize in size and color in order to produce a fine velvety appearance and form a thick covering on the ground. Per lb., 25c.; per 100 Ibs., $18.00

NO. 6. Iron Age Combination Double Wheel

Hoe, Hill and Drill Seeder. Price $11.00 NO. 7. Iron Age Asa Seeder Only.

Price - - $8 OO

This tool is without question the most practical and complete com- bined garden implement ever offered the public, the ease and simplicity of adjustment, the lightness combined with great Istrength, the accuracy by which it drills or hills the seed, and the small amount of power required to operateit, are the most import-.

= ant features.

The wheel is made of steel, 16 inches high; the frame of pipe, coupled to malleable castings. In each form, whether a Seed Drill, a Double Wheel Hoe or a Single Wheel Hoe, it is equal to any tool or tools made especially for one purpose.

It places the seed in hills or drills, it plows, it rakes, it opens furrows, it covers, it hills, it hoes, it cultivates.

NO. 1. Iron Age Double Wheel Hoe. Price, $6 50 (The Drill Form of the Tool Shown Above. )

NO 8. Iron Age( Side Hoes Only ) Price $3 75 Ata glance one can see the great usefulness of this tool. The garden or farm is incomplete without at least one of them. kp

No. 11 (Same with Plow Only) $2.25

In the accompanying cut we show a tool of exceeding light- ness but of great strength, which is designed to do a greater \\. variety of work than any other tool of the same price. It will

NN accomplish all the work necessary in a small garden,—plowing, fur- rowing, covering, hoeing raking and cultivating. This tool is em- phatically a friend of the laborer or mechanic who can afford only a small amount of money ina garden tool, and whose few moments in a garden must be devoted to ‘“‘ straight-ahead”’ work.

THE NEW MODEL SEED DRILL, Price- - $7.50

The New Model Seed Drill contains all the good points of every old drill in the market, with this pointin addi- tion, the slide or hole through the slide where all the seeds have to pass, is adjustable, and the slide can be changed to a fraction by the operator, thus admitting exactly the quantity of seed required. The hole is diamond shaped, whichis another advantage for rough or irregular 2 shaped seed. CutT-oFrF—The flow ~~ im [G7 of seed can be instantly stopped / ging, Vycag con by aswinging cut-off, convenient- gly * Due o\ ly operated by a cord and ring on jj handle.

No. 22. ‘Iron Age” Combined Fertilizer Dis- tributor, Hill and Drill Seeder, Price $17.00

In these days of strong competi- tion in the growing of crops, it becomes necessary for the market gardener to make a study of the most economical use of fertilizers, and to obtain this economy re- quires such a tool asin accompany- ing cut, which applies the fertili- zerin connection with the seed, just where it will do its greatest good; or by the use of the same tool in its other form, as shown be- low by applying quick acting fer- tilizers to growing plants.

Although a tool designed to do so much, it is perfectly simple, light of draught, strong and per- fect in quality of the work done by it. These plows are adjustable in depth and width, which allows the adjustment at the depth at which the fertilizer is sown and allows its distribution in narrow streams at different distances. The plows are imme- diately followed by the coverers which draws the soil over the fertilizer just deposited.

The Fertilizer Distributor is thoroughly reliable in its distribution of fertilizer. It con- tains a force feed device which prevents stoppage by small lumps.

The Seed Sower Device is practically the same as used on Nos. 6 and 15 Combined Seed Drills. The seed may be sown in rows or dropped in hills at 4, 6, 8, 12 or 24 inches apart. For soft ground we can furnish a wide tire attachment.

No. 23.’ ‘‘Iron Age” Fertilizer Distributor (As a Side Dresser.) Price $12.50.

Hil! and Drill Seeder Attachment, $4.50.

The side or top dressing of growing plants has become a practice of greatimportance. It is not merely a matter of the ecouom- ical distribution of high priced fer- tilizers, but what is of more conse- quence, the placing of it just where the rootlets will quickly seize and absorb its chemical constituents.

,,

With the addition of the Hill and Drill Seeder attach- ment, this tool is identical with the No. 22 Combined Fer- tilizer Distributor Hill and Drill Seeder shown above.

This tool is operated by working astride the rows of growing plants, and the result accomplished will be most gratifying.

Gem Single Wheel Hoe, $4.50.

The popular GEM has been so largely used by the market gardeners that it needs no intro: B duction. Being made mostly of steel and mal- & leable iron it is strong, yet light in weight. Sure to please.

No. 60 “TRON AGE” PIVOT WHEEL RIDING CULTIVATOR.

PRICE, $35.00, Add for Plows 75e. Fallow Tooth $1.15.

Ball Bearings—It has wonderful ease of guidance, the pivots being vertical near the wheels, and the ends resting upon hard- ened steel balls.

Spring Pressure Lock-Down—To prevent the gangs from rising and slipping over hard places, we furnish this Cultivator with a spring pressure lock-down, strong enough to hold it to its work in stiff ground, but weak enough to allow the gangs to rise before damage could occur to them or the standards.

The Lever Gang Adjuster gives the operator immediate control of the width of his gangs. With this adjuster the gangs are always at equal distance from the center. One important feature of our Adjuster is that the gangs, and necessarily the teeth, are always kept parallel with each other, each tooth presenting its face squarely to the front at all times, and therefore will not throw soil toward the row when expanded, and from the row narrowed up, as is the case when the gangs are pivoted at the front. Especially is this Adjuster valuable where the distance must be changed frequently.

The Gangs are of such design as to give great strength—very rigid, so as to instantly follow the directions given by the wheels. For cultivating potatoes and all close grown crops the outside part of gang is removed, together with the standard and tooth.

The Standards are made of good steel and can be instantly adjusted in depth of angle of cut, or removed altogether by simply loosening one nut.

Points—tThe steel points sent out on the Cultivator are 2% inches in width and Io inches long, while we have, also, of the same length, points 14% and 3% inches in width, meeting a call for those extremes.

- The Wheels as shown in cut, have flanged tires to prevent slipping on hill sides. They are made of steel and while they may appear light, yet they are very strong and durable.

No. 70 “IRON AGE” Combined Pivot and Fixed Wheel Riding Cultivator, Price $36.00

Although a combined tool when used in either form, a Pivot or Fixed Wheel Cultivator. it is a thorough success, containing advantages over many tools made expressly as a Fixed or Pivot Wheel tool. The wheels are made of steel, 30 inches high with a broad face tire, 2% inches wide. They are adjustable in width at any point between 42 inches at the widest and 32 inches at the narrowest. This adjustment allows for the entire cultivation of rows 54 inches apart, and as close as 28 inches or even narrower.

PIVOTED GANG BARS—The gang bars are hinged or pivoted and the cultivating width can be quickly changed by the simple loosening and tighteniug of two bolts, They are of round bars of steel, with a groove that engages a rib on the tooth holder, thus preventing all dan- ger of turning on the bar, while the eye- bolt firmly clamps the tooth holder to the bar, with no danger of sliding. This com- bination also gives the facility of changing the position of the teeth on the bar or of

| {

increasing or reducing the number. BAS =F We call attention to our method of a - 4s

connecting the gangs in front—a connec- Ts tion of parallel links, giving an easy, swinging motion to the gangs, at the same time keeping them square to the front, instead of constantly changing the face of the teeth as occurs by the use of the ordinary single coupling. A SPRING TootH ATTACHMENT may be quickly and easily applied.

PRICE. With Fertilizer Distributor_.___-____ $75.00 Without ‘: oy hy Sa EH ecg.) 65.00 Pea and Corn Sower Attachment____ 5.00 Leveler Attachment _______ eT? WOON .95

A machine that is completely and thorough- ly successful. Has none of the faults of other planters and does better work than planting by hand.

The opening plow is a double mold plow which throws out on each side a free furrow of loose soil with no packing or wedging to crowd the future growth of the crop.

' The fertilizer distributor sows the fertilizer 10 a broad stream 6 to 8 inches wide, in any quantity desired and same is mixed thoroughly with the soil by the shoe. preceeding the potato tube.

The seed is dropped at 12, 14, 154, 17, 184 or 20 inches apart. The change from one distance to another can easily be made by changing sprocket wheels. The covering is accomplished by means of a pair of discs which cover the seed with a full free covering.

The seed is neither punctured vor injured in any manner while being deposited in the furrow below, so one may rest assured the seed, after it is planted, is in as good condi- tion as when first placed in the machine.

Every florist has experienced difficulty in obtaining putty [whether ordinary or white lead] for glazing, that is satisfactory for any length of time. The fact is putty is not adapted for greenhouse work. ‘‘ Mastica,’’ when applied, in a few hours.forms a skin or film on the entire mass, hermetically sealing the substance, and pre- venting the evaporation of the liquids, and remains in a soft, pliable and elastic condition for years. ‘‘ Mastica” is of great value in going over old houses with a putty bulb or machine on the outside of sash, as it makes it perfectly tight aud saves the expense of re-laying the glass.

Daimond Kdge Tree Pruner. .

The above Pruner is the most powerful Tree Pruner on the market. The strength and apse of this tool is wonderful, and the secret of it is that the nut remains where it is turned, for this reason the blades work inside the LINK NUT TIE, thus there is no friction on the head, or nut of the bolt, andthe blade always cuts tight to the edge of curved blade and “never becomes loose, as on other similar tools.

Two Row Deere Corn-Planter,

This plants two rows at atime and is the latest addition to the justly celebrated line of Deere Planters. It is 50 simple that it is next to impos- sible for it to get ‘‘out of fix,’° and in the matter of convenience is simply in a class by itself.

The drop works on the ‘‘edge selection”’ princi- pal, taking advantage of the fact that kernels of corn, while varying greatly in size, are compara- tively uniform in thickness. This gives the Plant- er an extremely accurate drop.

The valve mechanism is entirely enclosed with- in the shank, and is not affected by corn-stalks or other trash. The corn is forced out of the heel in perfect check, regardless ot the speed of the team, and thereis no clogging of the hee).

It is always ready for either hilling or drilling, no Change of the valves being necessary and no change of plates for the distances most used. The foot-drop is always ready for useandis convenient to the foot.

While the front and back frames are ex- tremely rigid, there is a spring connection between the two, allowing the Planter to follow the in- equalities of the surface of the ground.

The automatic reel is simple and effective, and’ So situated that it need never be removed from the Planter, althongh it may be taken off by simply removing one spring cotter.

An adjustable seat adds greatly to the comfort of tke eperator.

Automatic Poultry Feeder.

This Automatic Poultry Feeder will reduce the cost of feeding to a minimum, economize in grain, increase the percentage of fertile eggs and health of your flock. The scattering of grain on. the ground or in litter is unsatisfactory, as the fowls soon secure ail the grain, and are idle until the nextfeed. The more exercise they get, the. bet- ter the health of your fowls.

Our Automatic Feeder gives them plenty of ex- ercise, so that they do not overeat.

It will save 50 per cent of time in feeding, and increases the egg-production: The hopper holds sufficient grain for an ordinary flock for 24 hours ormore. The Feeder can be filled at night, and is ready for the fowls in the morning. Feeds fast or slow, works automatically, an inside cut-off regu- lates the discharge. No wood is used except for the platform, therefore there is nothing to get out of order.

The Feeder is suspended about four or five feet from the floor. and set to feed quite freely at first until fowls become accustomed to it. Surround Feeder by a pen about 12 inches or more in height and four or five feet square, which will prevent fowls from scratching litter away from Feeder and will give them additional exercise in getting in and out of pen.

Price $2.25 each ; 3 for $6.90 ; Dozen for $20.09.

CYPHERS NON-MOISTURE INCUBATORS.

The Cyphers Patent.Diaphragm, Non-Moisture, Self-Ventilating and Self-Regulating Incubators

For which we are authorized

agents, are guaranteed by the manu-

facturers as follows:

First:—To require no supplied mois- ture.

SECOND:—To be self-ventilating.

THIRD:—To be self-regulating,

FOURTH:—To operate with less oil and at less expense than any other make o incubator.

FirTH:—To be fire-proof, having the best, safest and most costly-built heater attached to an incubator.

SrxtH:—To be in all essentials the simplest and easiest to operate and con- : : trol, requiring less labor and attention ee al _ than any other incubator,

SEVENTH:—To be the easicst to set up, hence the most satisfaciory incubator for the noy- ice, and to be strictly automatic in operation, except the trimming of the wick, filling the lamp and turning the eggs.

E1GHTH:—To produce larger, stronger and healthier chicks and ducklings than any other style or make of incubator.

NINTH:—That where it is run in competition with any incubator of a different make, it shall, in three or more hatches, bring out a larger average percentage of the fertile eggs in good, healthy chicks and ducklings than does its competitor.

TENTH:—That each and every incubator we send out will do satisfactory work in the hands of the purchaser who will give it a fair trial, or it can be returned to us within 90 days, in good repair, less reasonable wear, and the purchase price will be refunded,

If you are in search of the best incubator manufactured, the one that will hatch the larg- est number of the strongest chicks or ducklings, the CYPHERS isthat machine. It is used to-day at thirty-two Government Experiment Stations in the United States, Canada, Eng- land, Australia and New Zealand. At these stations, which are operated at public expense, the Cyphers Incubators are used by the Professors of Agriculture and Poultry Managers for the purpose of demonstrating to students and poultry classes the scientific principles of arti- ficial incubation.

THE CYPHERS PATENT-DIAPHRAGM, NON-MOISTURE, SELF-VENTILATING AND SELF- REGULATING INCUBATORS have supplanted the old style incubators on the largest broiler plants. duck ranches and egg farms throughout the country, and to-day are used by a major- ity of America’s most successful poultrymen, including prominent fanciers, also by thous- ands of persons in all walk; of life

It Now Is NO IDLE BoastT that the sun never sets on the good work being done by the Cyphers Incubators. They are usedin every country on the globe where poultry is pro- duced for market, and are giving uniform satisfaction. Five minutes attention morning and evening positively is all the time required to take proper care of this unequaled hatch- ing machine.

THE STANDARD HATCHER OF THE WORLD.

Although the Cyphers Incubators cost but’a little more than cheaply-built, wrongly-con- structed, inferior hatching machines, they are wortha great deal more. Asa matter of fact they are what every earnest poultry raiser wants—a trustworthy, automatic incubator that with the least practicable a'tention will hatch the largest possible number of the strongest, largest and most vigorous chicks from a given number of fertile eggs. .

THE WHOLE STORY IS SUMMED UP in the Company’s final guarantee, which we, as their agents, are authorized to stand back of in every particular, namely, that the Cyphers Incu- bators will do satisfactory work IN THE HANDS OF EVERY PURCHASER who will give it a fair trial, or it can be returned and the price paid for it will be refunded. Could any proposition be fairer than this? Itis equivalent to buying a certainty in anincubuator. Our adyice to every reader of this catalogue is: Buy the best, then you will know you are right.

STYLE A OUTDOOR BROODER—Next to its incubator, the Cyphers Company especially prides itself on the three-

In the Cyphers Outdoor Brooder, Style A, with a total floor space of 36x60 inches, we have not only the double brooding arrangement, consisting of the hover and well-lighted apartment surround- ing the same, but for daytime use what amounts to a separate cooler brooder, or two brood- ers in one .

CYPHERS SECTIONAL BROODER.—These Sectional Brooders are made in three sizes, two, three and four sections. They are 88 inches wide and 11 inches high. Each section is three feet long. The materials used are the best. There are six heating pipes, substantial and lasting boilers and lamps, a safety expension tank, adjustable floors and heavy felt hover curtains. They are the most practical and inexpensive hot water brooders ever designed for indoor use in moderate temperatures.

The Cyphers Brooders are offered at low figures, quality of material, workmanship and size considered.
