Shrubs • Trees
FERTILIZERS AND INSECTICIDES
TWELVE NOVELTIES
And Recent Noteworthy Introductions
of Flowers for my Lady’s Garden
1. ACROLINIUM. (Large Flowered Double Hybrids. Large daisy-like flowers which
can be used both in the summer and the winter. Blossoms can be cut for fresh
bouquets or can be dried for winter decoration. The color range is very attrac¬
tive, containing lovely shades of salmon, apricot, pink, rose and cerise, as well
as white and creamy tones. Pkt., 25c.
Calendula
Campfire
2. CALENDULA. (Campfire Dodger’s Improved Strain). A
new, free blooming Calendula in a beautiful dark orange
shade with scarlet sheen. You will love this one. Pkt., 25c.
3. CALENDULA. (Orange Sunshine). One of the finest novel¬
ties in recent years. The flowers are of the chrysanthemum
type in a light orange, vivid and penetrating. This one is
a winner. Pkt., 25c.
4. COREOPSIS. (Double Sunburst). Perennial. The common
Coreopsis has long been a favorite for its bright, snowy
golden yellow single flowers, now we have it in a fully dou¬
ble blossom that is a real attraction. Pkt., 25c.
5.
LARKSPUR. (Giant Imperial). One prominent gardener
says — “Larkspurs are simply a necessity to every garden.”
What would you think of a NEW giant strain that is vastly
superior in every way. Can now be had in three colors —
Carmine King, deep carmine rose; Coral King, coral pink; and White King, huge
glistening white. Pkts., 25c each.
6. MARIGOLD. (Collarette Crown of Gold). All-American novelty. Entirely lack¬
ing in the pungent, objectionable odor common to other Marigolds. Has large,
rounded double heads of flowers with a distinct collarette below. Color, a deep
orange. Seeds planted outdoors in May will bloom from July until killing frost.
Pkt., 25c.
7. MARIGOLD. (Gigantea Sunset Giants). Another sweet scented Marigold minus
the pungent odor. Flowers are very large, loosely formed in a mixture of orange
and yellow shades. A wonderful flower for cutting. Pkt., 25c.
8. MARIGOLD. (Harmony). One of the finest dwarf Marigolds. Medium sized
flowers in a bright color combination of deep brown guard petals encircling a
crested center of deep orange, tubular petals. For show in the garden as well
as for cutting this has few equals. Pkt., 25c.
9. NASTURIUM. (Double Orange Gleam). The most striking of the new Double
Nasturiums. Flowers are large, semi-double and very profuse. The color is a
deep glowing orange. Pkt., 25c.
10. NIEREMBERGIA HIPPOMANICA. (Perennial). A new perennial for rockery
or edging plant that must not be overlooked. The plant is about six inches high
and is literally covered with light blue, saucer-shaped flowers all through the
season. Pkt., 25c.
11. PETUNIA. (Dainty Lady). Received Award of Merit both from the All-America
Selections and the Royal Horticultural Society. This is a striking new novelty;
rather low growing single-fringed Petunia in a delicate golden yellow. So pro¬
fuse flowering that the blossoms literally cover the plant. Pkt., 35c.
12. VERBENA. (Hybrida Grandiflora Crimson Glow). The newest and one of the
most striking Verbenas. A large flowered vivid crimson variety, which in a bed
or border produces a solid block of color which is hard to equal for sheer beauty
and brilliance. Pkt., 25c.

One each of all 12 varieties ($3.10 value) for $2.25, postpaid.

Pages have been written about the new
Double Gleam Nasturium, yet the half has
never been told. Their delightful fragrance
and profuse blooming habits make them the
one outstanding introduction of the last
century. It is no exaggeration to say that
a single plant of Golden Gleam will bear a
thousand beautiful, fragrant blooms in one
season. Give them plenty of space, 12 to 14
inches, and feed with Vigoro fertilizer. For
top results pick blooms daily.

Zinnias
THE EASIEST FLOWER IN THE WORLD TO' GROW, THE MOST FREE-FLOWER¬
ING, THE MOST CONTINUOUS BLOOMING, AND ONE OF THE BEST FOR CUT FLOWERS.
Truly, the ZINNIA should be given a generous space in EVERY garden. The range of
varieties in the ZINNIA is noteworthy. From the giant California Mammoth, on plants
growing 3 to 4 feet high, they range down to the tiny Tom Thumb, 6 to 10 inches in
height. Some resemble large Dahlias, others resemble the Scabiosa. One variety is a
double for the popular Crysanthemum, another looks just like tiny Buttercups. Your whole
garden could be planted to ZINNIAS without danger of monotony. We list 8 distinct
varieties of ZINNIAS.

propogate to produce another mature
It is known as "AMORPHOPHALLUS RIVERI”
and all are again invited to watch its progress.
This strange lilly grows without water or soil. The
giant bulb (about 7 inches in diameter) rests in a
specially prepared bed. It will grow to a height of
about three feet at which time an enormous bloom,
about 15 inches in diameter, will appear. The stalk
will then continue to grow some three feet more.
After blooming the plant dies down to the bulb.
About May 15th the bulb will be planted outdoors
and in a few weeks will send up another “broom¬
stick” stalk and this time will produce a palm-like
set of leaves about three feet high. We now have
a “junior” “MORPHY” which we will endeavor to
bulb. Four years is required to do this.
COME DOWN TO OUR STORE AND WATCH “MORPHY.”
(We call him “Morphy” for short.)

Lawn Qrass Seeds
Making a lawn is a job that most of us only have to undertake once or twice in a
life-time. We build lawns for permanence, and for that reason we OUGHT to go
about it with the utmost care. We want the soil carefully prepared before planting
the seed and we want the VERY BEST SEED OBTAINABLE. Grass seed is one item
that it NEVER pays to shop around for and buy from whoever quotes the best price.
The BEST is always the CHEAPEST in the long run. Seed stores are required to
submit their seeds for tests of germination and purity while other stores are not
made to do so. For that reason some stores, who do not specialize in seeds, buy, and
sell, the cheapest grass seed that is offered them.
BUY YOUR LAWN SEED FROM A SEED STORE
Another thing to remember, when making a lawn, is that MANURE, in any form
whatever, is not necessary, not advisable, and should NEVER be used. Any form of
manure is liable to contain seeds of the most noxious weeds, and it is apt to contain
germs of plant diseases that may, and probably will, give you trouble perpetually.
NEVER USE MANURE IN ANY FORM ON YOUR LAWN
A mulch of PEAT MOSS and feeding with CHEMICAL FERTILIZERS is the mod¬
ern and the best way to make and maintain a lawn.

EeKy Wear
Gloves
Brussels Sprouts
A very delicate vegetable and deserves a more general cultivation than
they receive. The plant belongs to the Cabbage family and should be
grown and cultivatd like Cabbage. The “sprouts” which grow around
the strong, upright stems of the plant, look like miniature cabbages.
Very hardy, improved by frost. One ounce will produce 2,000 plants.
Half-Dwarf Improved. Bearing a large crop of small, solid, tender
heads. Pkt., 5c; ok., 20c; % lb., 00c; lb., 81.80.
Cabbage
A£ffiia/i£ tneai
xyeyetaMed id
CULTURE. One ounce of good seed will produce 2,000 plants.
For early Cabbages sow the seed in a hotbed in March or April,
covering the seed from one-quarter to one-half inch deep and
when big enough transplant to another bed. As soon as the
ground is in good condition, transplant outside in rows 2 feet
apart and 15 to 18 inches in a row. The soil should be mellow,
rich and well drained. For late crops the seed can be sown in
a cold frame or even in the open ground, and then transplant¬
ed in rows 3 feet one way and 2 feet the other, so as to be
able to work with a horse and cultivator. One ounce of salt¬
peter dissolved in 3 gallons of rain water, sprinkled over the
Cabbage or Cauliflower will destroy the green worm. The liquid being clear does not
color the Cauliflower or Cabbage heads. Fine air-slacked lime or tobacco dust sifted on
the young plants as soon as the fleas appear on the ground will prevent them from
doing harm.
Earliest Varieties
L\wd. ojj yAcjolo

as late Cabbage. Italian Green Sprouting. Pkt., 10e; oz., 35c; *4 lb.,
$1.00; lb,, $3.35.
Carrots
One ounce will sow 100
feet of drill; 3 to 4 lbs.
for an acre.
CULTURE. Carrots may be sown in hot-beds in February for early
use. In open ground from March to first of July; however, main crop
will produce best results if sown from first of May to first of July.
Thin out early plantings to 5 inches apart in the row and main crop 6
to 8 inches apart. The rows should be 10 inches apart for early crop
and 15 to 18 inches for main crop. Cultivation should be carefully per¬
formed to keep down the weeds, and deep hoeing between the rows
will give a large increase in the crop. Carrot tops, cut from young
plants, may be used for garnishing.
Ox Heart, or Guerande. Especially desirable for clay soil. Root is short
and thick and flesh is bright orange in color. Heart is tender and not
woody. Pkt., 5c; oz., 10c; 14 lb., 30c; lb., 80c.

market. Pkt., 5c; oz., 10c; 14 lb., 30c; 1 lb., 80c.
Danver’s
Half Long
Cauliflower
Early Snowball Cauliflower
Celery
One ounce will pro¬
duce from 5,000 to
10,000 plants.
One ounce will produce 3,000 plants. Cultural
directions for Cabbage apply to this crop, but the
soil should be more heavily manured. Keep ground
well hoed, and bring earth gradually up to stems.
Water freely, especially when they begin to head.
Never allow plants to become crowded in seed-bed;
transplant them writh great care, as any check will
injure, if not prevent formation of the head. For
late Cauliflower, set plants in a cool, moist place.
When heads form, the long leaves should be drawn
over and tied above them, to keep off sun and rain.
Henderson’s Early Snowball. One of the best types
on the market. Its compact habit of growth ren¬
ders it a very profitable variety to force under
glass, and it does well for late planting, as well
as for early crops. A sure header. Pkt., 10c; *4
oz. 50c; oz. $1.50; 2 ozs. $2.75; *4 lb. $5.00.
Early Paris. Medium
size. Pkt. 10c; *4
oz. 30c; oz. 80c; V4
lb. $2.50; lb. $8.00.
CULTURE. The conditions necessary for successful Celery
cultivation are good seed, plenty of manure and complete
fertilization, moisture and cultivation. The most suitable
soil is rich loam, finely pulverized and highly enriched with
30 to 40 loads to the acre of good stable manure. Sow
seed in boxes for early planting; later plants may be pro¬
duced from seeds sown in frames or open ground. Trans¬
plant 4 inches apart when 3 inches high, water and protect
until well rooted, then transplant into rows for garden cul¬
ture 18 inches to 2 feet apart, for field culture in rows
4 to 6 feet apart; set the plants from 8 to 12 inches apart,
supply plenty of moisture and see that plants receive thor¬
ough cultivation. They may be set either on the surface or
in well manured trenches 1 foot in depth. To blanch draw
earth around the plants, being careful not to cover the tops
of the center shoots.
Giant Pascal. By far the most popular Celery. Medium to
small size, but wonderfully well flavored. Pkt. 5c; oz. 20c;
y4 lb. 65c; lb. $2.00.

are started and plants set out in the same way as advised
for Celery. Celeriac is not usually blanched, but is very fine
when thus treated, and much hardier than the stalk Celeries.
Large, Smooth Prague. An improved form of turnip-rooted
Celery; round, smooth roots with very few side roots.
Pkt., 5c; oz., 25c; *4 lb., 75c.

for better vegetables
VEGETABLES must be fed to pro¬
duce crisp, tender roots or fruits.
When growth stops or slows down
on account of lack of water or food,
the result is a tough, stringy tuber.
VIGORO is the ideal food for vege¬
tables, flowers, shrubs, trees, or
lawns. It is so balanced as to in¬
gredients that it will be sure to
supply the needed elements. Truck
farmers are using it by the ton be¬
cause they find it pays them to do
so.
Kale or Borecole Kohl-rabi
One ounce will produce 2,000 plants;
4 pounds to the acre.
Drill in rows of 2 y2 feet and thin to 6 to
10 inches. The varieties are extremely
hardy.
Dwarfed Curled Green. Extensively grown
as winter greens. Sow in autumn in rows
1 foot apart and treat as Spinaoh. Plants
very hardy, 4 to 6 inches high. Pkt. 5c;
oz. 10c; *4 lb. 30c; 1 lb. 90c.
Tall Curled Scotch. Grows about 18 inches
in height and spreads, sometimes reaching
3 feet in diameter. Desirable for winter
use. Pkt. 5c; oz. 15c; *4 lb. 30e; 1 lb. 90c.
The seed should be planted in the open
garden in 18-inch rows and the young plants
thinned to four or six inches. It does not
transplant well, unless when very small.
Early White Vienna. The most desirable
variety for general use. It is very early
and has small tops. Color light silvery
green. Pkt. 5c; oz. 20c; % lb. 50c; lb. $1.50.

Leek
One ounce will plant 200 feet of drill;
4 pounds to the acre.
CULTURE. Leek is very hardy and very
easily cultivated. Sow early in spring in
rich soil V6 inch deep, in drills 1 foot apart.
When 6 inches high, transplant in rows 10
inches apart each way; as deep as possible,
so that the neck, being covered, may be
blanched.
Large London Flag. The oldest and best
known and most largely grown variety.
Pkt. 5c; oz. 20c; % lb. 65c; lb. $2.00.
Lettuce
CULTURE. Sow in hotbed or boxes in
February or March and in open ground as
soon as it can be worked; transplant to
rows 8 inches apart both ways. Extra rich,
mellow soil, high cultivation and moisture
are demanded by lettuce to secure best re¬
sults. Lettuce is hardy and makes better
growth when mercury is below 60 degrees;
when above 75 degrees the plant is soon
drawn out of shape. A succession of plant¬
ings, at intervals of two weeks, after first
outdoor planting is desirable. In August
any of the varieties can be sown either
outdoors or in frames. In October, Grand
Rapids and Denver Market, may be planted
in frame to head in winter. Always sow
seed thin and then thin out plants to stand
from 6 to 8 inches apart in row. Lettuce
requires good soil, carefully enriched with
well rotted manure, and well pulverized to
secure the best results. For hotbed and very
early sowing, we especially recommend Big
Boston, Grand Rapids, Early Curled Simpson
and Black Seeded Simpson.
Loose or Cutting Varieties
Black Seeded Simpson. One of the best leaf
varieties. Leaves are fluffy but not
crinkled. Tender and sweet. Pkt. 5c; os.

Heading Varieties
New York Wonderful or Los Angeles
Market Lettuce
Muskmelons
One ounce to 60 hills; 3 pounds to acre.
CULTURE. A rich, deep, sandy soil
worked and highly manured is of the utmost
importance. Plant when all danger of frost is
over, in hills 5 to 6 feet apart each way; scatter
a dozen seeds to a hill and afterwards thin out
to 3 or 4 plants. Cantaloupes and Cucumbers
are often destroyed by lice and should be well
sprinkled with slug shot when the plants ap¬
pear. When they have 4 leaves, pinch off the
end of the main shoots, which will cause lateral
branches to put forth sooner and strengthens
the growth of the vines.

One ounce to 10© feet

Radish
CULTURE. The soil for radishes should be
very rich, light and mellow, well broken by dig¬
ging, as their tender and mild qualities depend
much upon their rapid growth. For very early
use, sow in gentle hotbeds in February, and in
open air as soon as the ground can be worked;
then at intervals of ten or twelve days, for a suc¬
cession as long as they may be wanted. The win¬
ter varieties should be sown in August, lifted
before severe frost, and stored in the cellar.
Sow in drills 1 foot apart and cover lightly;
thin out while small to 3 inches apart. Hoe
often.

Salsify or Oyster Plant
CULTURE. The oyster plant succeeds best in some

early in the spring in drills 15 inches apart; cover the
seeds with fine soil 1 inch deep One ounce for 60 feet
of drill; 7 pounds to one acre.
Mammoth Sandwich Island. This plendid variety grows
to fully double the size of the old sort; is of superior
quality and delicate flavor. The Oyster Plant is one

CULTURE. This is a very important crop in our market gardens, and Is one of the
most easily managed of all vegetables, requiring but little culture and may be had fit for
use the entire season. The main crop is sown in September. It is sometimes covered up
in exposed places with straw or salt hay during winter, which prevents it from being cut
by frost; but in sheltered fields there is no necessity for covering. For summer use it may
be sown at intervals of two to three weeks from April to August. Spinach is best devel¬
oped and most tender and succulent when grown in rich soil.
Bloomsdale Savoy. Early and hardy and an
excellent variety for table or canning.

Squash
One ounce will plant 30 hills; 3 to 4 pounds
an acre.
CULTURE. The plants are very tender and
sensitive to cold, and planting must be delayed
until settled, warm weather. The general prin¬
ciples of culture are the same as those given
for cucumbers and melons, but the plants are
less particular as to soil. The summer varie¬
ties should be planted 4 feet apart each way
and the winter sorts 8 feet. Three plants are
sufficient for a hill. Care should be taken not
to break the stems from the squashes intended
for winter use, as the slighest injury will in¬
crease the liability to decay.

Sweet Com
One pound will plant about 180 hills; 10 to
12 pounds to an acre, in hills.
CULTURE. Sweet Corn should
not be planted very early in the
season; the soil must be warm
and should be a rich loam. If
planted too early the seed is apt
to rot. Sweet Corn will not make
any progress until the weather
is warm. If possible select a
sheltered location for the very
early kinds. A succession can
be continued with the later kinds
by planting at regular intervals
from June to middle of August,
thus insuring a continuous sup¬
ply of table corn throughout the
summer and fall months. Plant
the small early varieties in drills
2 y2 ft. apart and 10 in. apart in
the rows. The taller varieties
should be planted in drills 3 ft.
apart and 12 to 14 in. apart in
the rows. Rich manure worked
into the soil will increase the
crop.

The latest gardening fad is a LILY POOL in the yard and much pleasure is derived from
this idea. A garden pool relieves the formality of the old-fashioned garden and opens
up a brand new hobby for those who are looking for something new and appealing.
WATER LILIES are perfectly hardy in Colorado, being found in many of our high-alti-
tude lakes where their beauty adds much to the attractiveness of such places.
WATER LILIES should be first planted in pots, filled with good garden soil and a 1 in.
layer of coarse sand or gravel over the top to prevent the soil from washing out
and muddying the water. Sink pots about one foot below the surface of the water. In
winter the pots may be removed and placed in your basement where the plants will keep
nicely with an occasional watering. Concrete pools are best, but not necessary. Any old
tub or tank will make a nice pool if 2 ft. deep or more.

Fertilizers for Lawns and Gardens
Remember the cardinal principle of all gardening — that every¬
thing that grows MUST BE FED.. A farmer figures that the amount
of FERTILIZER necessary for a given field depends upon the bulk
of the crop to be raised. Did you ever stop to think what an enor¬
mous crop is harvested every year from your lawn! Cutting the
grass every week or two means that the soil must find nourish¬
ment for literally TONS of grass to the acre. FEEDING ONCE A
YEAR IS NECESSARY and twice a year is better.
VIGORO, the clean, odorless, balanced plant food is used by those
who know what is the ONE BEST FERTILIZER.

While rats keep clear of
baits and traps they can¬
not escape from CYANO¬
GAS. This makes CYANO¬
GAS the perfect rodenti-
cide. Widely used through¬
out the world by farmers,
warehousemen. Health De¬
partments, Government
Agencies, etc., etc.
Thrips, bulb flies, and all
bulb-infesting insects,
yield to CYANOGAS. Does
not rot the bulb, but has a
stimulating effect. Can be
used any time after bulbs
are dry.
Apply CYANOGAS to bur¬
rows of “dog towns,” using
a long-handled spoon. The
gas liberated from CYANO¬
GAS will reach all parts of
the burrows and kill all
prairie dogs that get a
whiff. Not recommended
for use in the Spring.
Nothing is surer, quicker
or more economical for
mole control than CYANO¬
GAS. Every 10 feet along
the runways make a hole
and pump in the powerful
CYANOGAS A-DUST. Treat
the entire runways at one
time. Complete instruc¬
tions with every can.
INSECTS
All soil, unless treated, is
infested with numerous
species of soil insects, such
as wireworms, millipedes,
symphilids, sow bugs, bugs,
grubs of imported beetles
and nematodes. Fumigate
the soil with CYANOGAS
to kill these pests.
Mix CYANOGAS G-FUMI-
GANT with the seed in an
old milk can, empty drum,
wooden case, churn or some
other device. Use about Vz
oz. to a bushel of seed. CY¬
ANOGAS liberates a gas
which destroys all insect
pests.

Don’t Wish for a Better Lawn —
Have One
Here is a new tool, filling a long felt want. SPIKE-TAMP la
a new unbreakable tool that quickly reverses from a Spiker to
a Tamper.
Spiking the lawn allows air and water to enter and breaks up
that hidebound condition of the turf, cultivating it properly. A
good lawn should be spiked once or twice every season. A poor
lawn, if properly fed, will become good after spiking.
When seeding or fertilizing, Spike-Tamp is simply invaluable.
Tamping prevents washing away of new seed, and Spiking an
old lawn improves aeration and absorbing of water by the soil.
Bacterial action is quickened and improved color of the grass is
at once apparent.
SPIKE-TAMP complete and ready to use, $3.50 Not Prepaid.

GROW YOUNG PLANTS FOR TRANSPLANT¬
ING IN FERTILE POTS
The FERTILE POT will speed up the growth of
seedling plants because it is made of pure plant
food and other chemicals in such a way that the
plant is nourished properly from its very infancy.
HOW TO USE FERTILE POTS. Use flats or
boxes that will hold the desired number of FER¬
TILE POTS. Place one inch of soil in the bottom
of the flat, then place the FERTILE POTS close
together on top of this soil. Fill pots and spaces
in between with soil. Water the whole bed until
soaking wet. Then place the seeds or small plants
in the pots. Water twice a day because the pots
are very dry and will absorb lots of water. The
roots will grow into, and through the pots and
thus obtain the plant food needed. When ready to
plant outdoors, plant pot and all.
Use size No. 1 for Beets, Celery, Beans, and Pep¬
pers
Size No. 2 for Lettuce, Cabbage, Corn, Cauli¬
flower.
Size No. 3 for Cucumbers, Tomatoes, Squash, The Fertile Pot
Melons, Egg Plant.
One grower has made affidavit that Squash grown in FERTILE POTS yielded four
times as much per acre as those grown the regular way. Flowers mature much more
quickly, and bloom with better color and sturdiness.

Pet Supply Department
Since moving into our new store one year ago we have added to our pet supply lines
until we now have the most complete line to he found between Chicago and the Pacific
vOAST*
The owners of dogs, cats and birds, by making a study of the items listed in this de¬
partment of our catalog will find it unnecessary to consult a veterinarian except in cases
of accident or injury to their pets. Study the “WHAT TO DO” page carefully.
YOUR
Sometimes when life has gone
wrong with you
And the world seems a dreary
place.
Has your dog ever silently crept to
your feet,
His yearning eyes turned to your
face, —
Has he made you feel that he un¬
derstands,
And all that he asks of you
Is to share your lot, be it good or ill
With a chance to be loyal and
true?
Are you branded a failure? He
does not know
A Sinner? He does not care —
You’re Master to him — that’s all
that counts —
A word and his day is fair.
Your birth and your station mean
nothing to him;
A Palace and Hut are the same;
And his love is yours in honor and
peace
As it’s yours through disaster and
shame.
DOG
Though others forget you and pass
you by —
He is ever your faithful friend —
Ready to give you the best that is
his
Unselfishly, unto the end.

Bulk Dog Foods
The general use of table scraps is not to be recommended for
the reason that city dogs fail to get the necessary exercise to rid
the system of the excesses of carbohydrates and starches that are
found in table scraps. The most serious objection to this practice,
however, is the lack of “balance” in such feeds. MODERN PRE¬
PARED DOG FOODS, such as we list below, are the result of years
of study and research into the requirements of perfect, balanced
feeding requirements for the average dog.
Items marked thus * are, in our opinion, feeds that are best used
as supplemental feeds, that is to say that we do not regard them
as being perfectly balanced for city dogs. These prices are NOT
PREPAID.

Canned Dog Foods
In spite of what you may have heard to the contrary
many of the canned foods now on the market are decidedly
valuable additions to the ration of dogs and cats. It is
true, however, that, in the manufacturers' race to meet
cut-rate store competition, many brands on the market
are worthless and even totally unfit to use. We believe
that a safe guide to go by is the price. Any canned dog
food priced at less than 10c, for a one pound can, is prob¬
ably one to avoid.
PRICES ARE NOT PREPAID, please include postage,
and, if in Colorado, the State Sales Tax. All are 1 lb. cans except where so stated

WHAT TO DO
99 A FEW SUGGESTIONS AS TO THE CARE AND
CONDITIONING OF MAN’S BEST FRIEND, THE DOG.
No dog owner intentionally neglects or mistreats such a faithful friend, yet, because
of inexperience, our pets sometimes suffer and become badly “run down” before we realize
It. Unfortunately, they can not tell us when they feel badly. It is our duty to observe
their actions and be forewarned as soon as the danger signals appear.
WARNING SYMPTOMS.
Cloudy eye balls; hot,
dry nose; snuffling; sneez¬
ing; discharge from the
nostrils; listlessness; in¬
clination to get off in a
corner or under furniture;
loss of appetite; indicates
distemper or severe cold.
We recommend DEL¬
CREO, see page 61.
Gagging or choking cough, especially aft¬
er violent exercise; cloudy eye balls; rough,
harsh hair; intermittent appetite; lack of
“pep”; dragging hind quarters; indicates
worms. We recommend Cooper’s Combina¬
tion Worm Capsules, see page 61.
Frequent scratching when no evidence of
fleas or sores is found; rough coat; indi¬
cates improper diet. Give yeast; Pep-In; or
Rex Hunter’s Condition Powder.
Inflamed skin; scabs; sores; loss of hair
in patches; indicates eczema or mange.
Most types start with small red spots where
hair is thin. These multiply rapidly, form
blisters which eventually break and dis¬
charge pus, then scab over. If not cor¬
rected will cover the entire body and prove
fatal. Apply Quadine according to direc¬
tions on bottle. Also correct the diet and
give yeast or Pep-In with every meal.
These are only a few of the many sym-
toms that may indicate that all is not well
with your dog. If in doubt ask for FREE
dog book, or write or call us and describe
symptoms fully. No charge for this service.
FEEDING.
A good rule to go by is 1 ounce of food
daily for each pound of dog’s weight for
puppies, and half this amount for grown
dogs. This may vary, however, depending
on climate, exercise, and breed of dog. A
feeding schedule that has been found to fit
the average dog is as follows —
7 a.m.Noon 5p.m. 10 p.m.
Weaning
to 3
months
X
X
X
3 months
to 6
months
X

to 1
year

Ask for FREE feeding schedule. This
little booklet tells the correct weight of
every breed of dog, the amount to give,
and explains the whole feeding problem in
detail.
WORMING.
Worm puppies 4 times their first year.
Grown dogs should be wormed not less than
every six months.

and furniture. We carry a very complete line. PRICES ARE POSTPAID.

of great beauty and interest in the home.
By using about two inches of our aquarium
sand in the bottom, plants of many kinds
grow luxuriantly and with the fish swim¬

is truly pleasing. Our selection of Aquar¬

‘RMMfTHE ROOSTS
WITH "BLACK LEAF40
BEST CONTROL FOR POULTRY LICE
Black Leaf 40 Works While They Roost
It has been demonstrated that “Black Leaf 40,” undiluted,
painted on the top side of the roost will control body lice.
This saves the labor of handling each bird, either to dust,
dip or grease. “Black Leaf 40” does not harm the birds nor
retard egg production. We regard this discovery as one of
the greatest aids to poultry raising in the last generation.
One ounce of “Black Leaf 40” will paint from 12 to 15 feet of
roosts. One pound will paint 190 to 240 feet.
Prices — One ounce bottle 35c; five ounce bottle $1.60; 1 pound
bottle $2.25; 2 pound tin $3.25; 5 pound tin $5.S5; 16 pound
tin $16.66. Black Leaf 40 being a nicotine poison. Add!
postage if by mail.
Grange Garget Remedy
A dairy association product, 65c postpaid.

deodorant. We know of nothing that will take its place.

This picture shows a corner of our new store devoted to fish and sup¬
plies. We carry a complete line of fish globes, aquariums, foods, water
plants, and anything the aquarist can use.
We do not attempt to catalog all of the items carried in stock. Out-of-
town customers are urged to come in and inspect our varied pet supply
line. We believe that we have just about every worthwhile item that goes
with an up-to-date pet supply store.
We are continually adding to our tropical fish line. We have ample
space for this purpose and as fast as we determine what varieties will do
well in the average home we will add them to our stock.

Bugs .
Insects cause a loss of over two billion
dollars a year to agriculture. A large per-
centge of crop destroying insects have an
adult flying stage. The Lyon Lantern causes
the adults to electrocute themselves as soon
as they fly — before they have laid their
eggs. This lantern has killed more than
3,000 codling moths per night. It has con¬
siderably reduced the worminess of grow¬
ing and stored crops and protected their
values. First class produce has a price and
market, but wormy products are a loss and
a waste.
Increases COMFORT
The Lyon Lantern increases the comfort
of porches, etc. — it kills the tiny gnats
which go through window screens. It is
ideal for porches, lawn parties, gardens,
orchards, etc. It is not dangerous to birds,
animals or humans.
Increases PROFITS
Losses which occur because of the ab¬
sence of a Lyon Lantern amount to many
times the cost of this efficient equipment
It creates more profits by an increased yield
which is free from poisonous spray residue
and insect damage.

Correct Fertilizers Make Better Gardens
SUDBURY SOIL TEST KIT enables you to determine the correct fertilizer to use
for your ground. Another method is to take samples of soil from different parts of
your yard and send to a laboratory for a test.
Hit-or-miss gardening- methods are no longer popular with the thrifty, skillful garden¬
er. He is unwilling to risk good seed or good stock by planting in soil that may be un¬
suited to their needs. Neither does he want to buy expensive fertilizer — or to invest his
own time and labor — until he knows by test that he is doing the right thing.
Successful gardening is based upon a knowledge of plant requirements plus analysis
of the soil that will make possible intelligent adjustment to plant needs.
The Sudbury Soil Test Kits are designed to make this essential information instantly
available to the amateur gardener. They are so simple to use that any gardener can make
quick, practical tests that will show the acidity of his soil and any possible deficiency in
nitrogen, phosphorus and potash. Each kit is accompanied by complete instructions and
tables of plant needs.
This knowledge is the gardener’s best insurance of success. It shows him the amount
of lime, and the amount and kind of fertilizer that his plants need for strong, healthy
growth. It also helps him to avoid the extravagant use of materials which, in excess quan¬
tities, will do more harm than good.
Sudbury Soil Test Kits are used for field testing by many leading growers from coast
to coast. They are saving money and contributing to the success of skillful amateur
gardeners everywhere.
