To this end they are provided on the foliage surface with tiny stomata or breathing organs, which perform a function very similar to that of the human lungs. They breathe in gases and ex- hale waste products, and at no time are inactive. The atmosphere of Pittsburgh and environs has a tendency to clog up tnese little organs with soot and dust. The new leaves borne in the spring of each year do not seem to be in num- ber adequate to supply the needs of evergreens as they are with decid- uous varieties. As a consequence, evergreens first begin to look scraggly, languish for a period, and then die. Another element that seems to attack the hardiest living plants is the volatile sulphurous gas which is here in such great quantity. Evergreens are particu- larly susceptible to this form of poisoning. We try to discourage the use of evergreens except where temporary effects are desired or on estates removed from the smoke stone.

SMITH COMPANY, PITTSBURGH, PA Ornamental Grass, Eulalia, Lilies - Lilium Lilies are a valuable addition to the garden and should be planted more extensively. The auratum and speciosum varieties do not arrive from Japan until very late in the fall and the ground where they are to be planted should be covered with a straw or manure mulch to keep the soil in condition for planting when the bulbs arrive. Each Doz. LILIUM auratum (Gold-banded Lily). Very large, hand- some white flowers, spotted with red and carrying a bright golden stripe in the center of each petal —speciosum Melpomene.

W. SMITH COMPANY, PITTSBURGH, PA. Asparagus Sprengeri. Palms, Ferns and Other House Plants The modern house Is not adapted to growing palms, ferns and other plants of this class, because of the lack of proper atmosphere and heat conditions. All such plants thrive best in warm and moist atmospheres, such as are possible within greenhouses in northern climates. Then, too, it requires the skill and knowledge of those who have made the study of such plants their life occupation. The results, therefore, ob- tained in the care of house plants by those who attempt it are variable; nevertheless, in all instances, the satisfaction of having the beauty of the palm, fern or croton in the home for even a little while is very great, and they do indeed add greatly to the cheerfulness and beauty of the home surroundings. The dry atmosphere caused by the various modern heating arrangements in the home is responsible, more than anything else, for the deterioration of house plants, and the best way to combat this is to spray the foliage frequently with water. Keep the plants out of draughts, either hot or cold, and water carefully and thoroughly when the soil shows signs of drying. Do not allow water to stand in jardinieres. Keep the plants as near daylight as possible. An application of lemon oil, or some other good insecticide is good When the leaves show signs of insect or scale life. A list of some of the most durable house plants, with sizes and prices, follows: ' Each ASPARAGUS sprengeri. This beautiful plant demands plenty of light, warmth and water.

U f||i’iif|iisOllitude, to sow a mixture of varieties of Grass Seed, for the reason that the best and most permari2,nklel^all^Ba.iifeplral^0jsi*^ry slow in getting started and making a good sod; in two or three y^rs, however, it will occupy the ground. Those varieties which have proper habit, color and early covering effect must be depended upon to help out until the Blue Grass can get well established. It is highly important that you sow good, fresh seed of strong germinating power. Our Lawn Grass Seeds are all tested, and, if the conditions are correct, will give the highest germination. A fairly good lawn for one summer can be made by sowing annual grasses, but these die the succeeding winter and you have your work to do again. There is no economy in so-called cheap lawn seed; it may be old and dead, or it may be cheap varieties of grasses not suitable for the purpose or that may not last more than one year. it A. W. SMITH COMPANY, PITTSBURGH, PA, Miscellaneous Supplies Fertilizer Commercial Fertilizers are much more satisfactory in lawn making than natural manures, for they contain all of the chemical elements essential to plant life, and are free from the noxious weed seeds that usually accompany manure. Fighting weeds is an endless task, which can be evaded successfully if the proper measures are taken to establish a good, dense catch of grass that will virtually crowd out weeds by its greater vitality. Smith’s Grower This Is a plant food that is soluble and immediately available to plants. If you will give the young, tender grass plants the advantage of obtaining nourishment without effort or delay, they will thrive, and in a short while will make a surprising growth that will preclude the possibility of weed growth. Smith’s Grower should be scattered upon the lawn areas at the rate of one pound to each 400 sauare feet, or 100 pounds to the acre, from the beginning to the end of the growing season, at intervals of about one month apart. In order to facilitate even distribution, it should be mixed with two or three times its bulk of pulverized garden soil or sand. During periods of drought the fertilizer cannot get into solution. For this reason it is well to give the lawn a good, thorough soaking subsequent to the scattering. All food is taken up by the root systems of plants when in solution, and is available as food only when in this condition. Its guaranteed analysis is as follows: Nitrogen, 4.52 per cent; Potash factual), 2 per cent; Phosphoric Acid, 5 to 6 per cent. Prices, f. o. b. Pittsburgh, are as follows.

Insecticides and Fungicides Arsenate of Lead Arsenate of Lead is used to destroy all leaf-eating insects attacking fruit trees, shade trees, vegetables, flowers and shrubbery, such as codling moth, curculio. canker worm, tussock moth, elm-leaf beetle, gypsy and brown-tail moths, potato beetle and all similar insects that feed upon the fruit and foliage. The Arsenate of Lead Paste may be used with either lime-sulphur solution or Bordeaux Mixture, combining in one application treatment for both insects and fungi. Prices, f. o. b.

Lime-Sulphur Solution Lime-Sulphur Solution is used as an insecticide to control San Jose scale, oyster-shell scale and all sucking or scale insects. For this purpose it is used at a dilution of one gallon to nine to eleven gallons of water, and applied during the dormant season, either after the leaves drop in the fall or before the buds open in the spring. The spring applica- tion, just before the buds open, will control leaf blister mite, plant lice and peach leaf-curl, in addition to the scale insects, and is usually considered advisable in well-cared-for orchards, where the scale is already under control and where the entire orchard can be gone over in the spring. The fall application is advisable where trees have not been previously sprayed, and are badly infested with scale, or where the size of the orchard, together with climatic conditions, renders spring spraying impracticable.

You can walk up to the machine before the water completes its circle — check the rotation temporarily, move the sprinkler to another location, or change the nozzle or distance adjustment. The oscillating half- circle movement is a fine convenience for sprinkling from house or walk. This sprinkler oper- ates on pressure as low as 15 pounds.
