No. Town State | CHOICE FLOWER SEEDS - General List } OST flowering plants will live in almost any soil, but to give them a fair chance to develop, some care should be taken to make the ground suited to their needs. The soil best adapted for flowering plants generally is a light, friable loam, containing a sufficient amount of sand to render it porous. Many flowers are better if produced on plants of vigorous growth, hence a portion of the garden should be prepared by deep digging, thorough pulverization and liberal enriching with large quantities of well-rotted manure. Since some other varieties produce the largest and finest colored flowers when grown on rather light, poor soil, a portion of the garden should not be enriched. While some seeds need special treatment, the following general rules will apply to all. Make the surface of the soil as fine, smooth and level as possible; do not plant when the ground is wet; cover each lot of seeds to a uniform depth, which should be not more than four to six times the diameter of the seed; press the soil firmly over the seed; plant in rows so that the starting plants can be seen easily; thin out the young plants to prevent crowding and keep entirely free from weeds.

Plants are generally known and described as Annuals, Biennials and Perennials. The term annual is applied to plants which flow'er and ripen their seeds the same season. Hardy annuals are those which may be sown in the open ground. Half hardy annuals are those which should be started in the house and trans- planted to the garden. The term biennial is applied to plants which flower the second season after planting and then perish; the term perennial to plants which to flower year after year. ADONIS.

Plants from seed sown in the open ground in May bloom finely in September and October. For July and August flowers sow in March or April in cold frame, spent hot- bed, or in pots or boxes in the house. Cover the seeds about half an inch deep with rich, light soil, and when the plants have three or four leaves transplant about 18 inches apart each way into well prepared beds. Manures too fresh or used in too large quantities sometimes induce disease in Asters. When used they should be thoroughly well decayed and mixed with the soil. Small quantities of slaked lime or fresh wood-ashes stirred into the surface of the Aster beds form good tonics for the plants and>eep disease and insects from the roots.

To obtain fine blooms it is better to sow during summer and transplant the seedlings in cold frames in September, protecting during the winter with mats or shutters. Pansies delight in a cool, moist, well drained soil, enriched with decomposed barn-vard manure. They should never be allowed to suffer for want of water.

Their beauty and fragrance, together with their vigorous growth and the ease with which they are grown, make them one of the most popular of garden annuals. They will thrive in any garden and bear all summer an abundance of beautiful fragrant flowers of many wonderful shades and tints. Our Sweet Peas are unsurpassed in selection, purity and vitality. CULTURE Early in spring make a trench three to four inches deep in rich, mellow soil, so arranged that no water can stand in it, and plant the seed in the bottom, covering at first only one inch deep. In soils at all heavy, or composed largely of clay, put about one inch of sand in the bottom of the trench and sow the seed on this, covering with more sand. Cover the row with a board to shed the rain and protect the soil from the hot sun, but remove this as soon as the young plants appear. When the plants are two inches high, cultivate, and as they grow gradually fill up -the trench. When the plants are about five inches high it is desirable to furnish some support for the vines to run upon, prefer- ably a wire netting firmly supported by stakes to prevent sagging, but strings or brush are often used with satisfactory results. The roots should not be allowed to become too dry. Water applied thoroughly once or twice a week, preferably early in the morning or in the evening, is usually better than light sprinkling more frequently. The blooms should be picked before they form pods, or the plants will soon stop flowering. Haskell’s Peerless Mixture.

The old method of selling seed by the pint, quart, peck, bushel, or fractions thereof is hereby dis- continued. Seeds will hereafter be quoted by the pound and hundred pounds. You will find it more accurate, more fair, and more sensible than the old method of buying by the pint, peck, or bushel. Recommendations as to quantitv to sow will be made on the pound basis instead of by measure. There are several reasons for this change. 1. The weight of a bushel of one kind of seed is practically never the same as that of another kind of seed. Even the weights of two single bushels of the same commodity may differ, due to difference in size of the individual seeds, vegetables, or whatever makes up the bushel. The old system was, therefore, unavoidably inexact,, frequently inaccurate, and never quite fair to both buyer and seller. 2. The new method is exact, accurate, and fair to all. 3. The new system permits of quicker, ijiore accurate parcel-post rating. 4. The Cental System, long used in Europe, is the coming method of selling seeds, vegetables, foods, etc. It has already been adopted by law in several states. Parcel Post Information Parcel Post rates now apply to all seeds, bulbs and plants and are subject to the same rates as all other mer- chandise. 1st and 2d Zones include all places within the distance of 150 miles of Lewiston.

ASPARAGUS German, — Gpargel. French, — Asperge. Spanish, — Esparragos. One ounce for 60 feet of drill. A convenient bed is about six feet wide, with a path two feet wide on each side. This will require six rows one foot apart, and a bed of that width 50 feet will be ample for an ordinary family, requiring about one pound of seed. It will require about three years from the time of sowing until the bed is in full bearing, but once established, it is good for twenty years. It should be sown in drills one foot apart, and when the plants are four or five inches high they should be thinned out so that the plants will be nine inches apart from each other in all the rows. Great care must be taken for the first year to keep down all weeds as soon as they appear, else they will choke and destroy the young seedling Asparagus. The deeper the soil and the more manure used, the greater will be the crop. Conover’s Colossal. The best known, and one of the most desirable sorts. Pkt., .10; oz., .20; X lb., .60 Palmetto.

Pkt., .15; X Lb., .25 BEET German, — Runtel Rube French, — Betterave Spanish, — Beteraga A rather light soil, well enriched, is best suited to the cultivation of the various beets. The mangels and sugar beets in particular, require very liberal manuring. For an early crop of table beets, sow the seed as early as the ground is in condition to work; light frosts will not injure the young plants. For a main crop, sow the first of May; and for winter beets, the last of June. Sow in drills, 12 to 15 inches apart, and about one inch deep, pressing the earth firmly upon the seed, — a very important matter. Use about six pounds of seed per acre, 1 oz., 50 feet. Thin out when the plants are large enough. The varieties for table use should be left three or four inches apart. TABLE BEETS Crosby’s Egyptian.

BRUSSELS SPROUTS (Species of cabbage; cultivation the same) German,— Rofen-Kohl French, — Chou de Bruxelles Spanish, — Berza de Brussels One jounce will sow a bed of forty square feet, and pro- duce about 3,000 plants This is a delicious vegetable, superior to either bore- cole or spinach. The small, cabbage-like heads which grow upon the stem are much improved by a moderate frost. Sow in hotbeds in March or April, and in the open ground in May. Dwarf Improved. Produces excellent, compact sprouts; very sure cropper. Pkt., .10; oz., .20; K lb., .75 CABBAGE German, — Kopf-Kohl French, — Chou Pomme Spanish, — Berza One ounce of seed produces about 3,000 plants. Early varieties are grown from seed sown in hotbeds in February or March, only moderate bottom heat being required. Transplant into other frames without much, if any, bottom heat, as soon as the plants show the fourth leaf. In April, or as soon as the ground can be easily worked, set out in rows three feet apart, and about eighteen inches between the plants. The ground should be thoroughly stirred with cultivator and hoed every week till the^plants cover the ground. For a fall crop, sow in the open ground in May, in hills the proper distance apart, using a liberal quantity of manure in the hill, besides that which is plowed in; thin out to one good plant in each hill. In the same way crops may be sown to lay in for the winter use, planting seeds as late as July 1. Seeds can also be sown in shallow drills; when the plants are large enough, can be trans- planted, setting the plants in rows three feet apart and two feet apart in the row. If the young plants .are troubled with the cabbage fly, sprinkle them with tobacco dust, air-slaked lime, slug-shot or wood ashes, while the dew is on them. To keep off the cabbage worm, sprinkle with Dalmatian insect powder or Bug Death. Danish Ball Head The wide and unfailing popularity of the Danish Ball Head cabbage is simply wonderful. It seems to adapt itself to all soils and conditions. The leading characteristics of the Danish Ball Head cabbage are: First, that it is a sure header; second, that it is of unapproachable solidity and weight; third, that it is an extra good keeper; and fourth, that it is a good seller. It is a medium to late cabbage, but is generally grown as a late crop. It is sure to head, the heads being round, hard and extremely heavy, though not extra large. It can be grown in close quarters, on account of its com- pact habit. Pkt., .10; oz., .40; lb., $1.50 All Seasons. An early Drumhead, sure -heading, solid variety. Desirable for early or fall use.

Extra early variety, ball shaped and evenly maturing. Best for market gardeners. Pkt., .10; oz., .40; lb., $1.50 Enkhuizen Glory. It is an early cabbage, but still of large size, solid and of the best quality. It is one of the largest early cabbages we have seen, and may be set out as late as the last of July or first of August in this latitude, and will make large, fine heads for late fall or winter use. The great merit of this cabbage lies in the perfect uniformity of its growth. The plants are compact, have few outside leaves, can be planted close together, and will produce a very large crop. Pkt., .10; oz., .40; yi lb., $1.50 CARROT German, — Rhore French, — Carrotte Spanish,— Zanahoria One ounce will sow 100 feet of drill; 3 pounds required for an acre Carrots require a very finely pulverized soil to grow them to perfection. A good, light and well-enriched sandy loam is the best for this crop. For field culture, sow in drills feet apart, so as to cultivate by horse. Market gardeners sow in drills about 15 inches apart and cultivate by hand. For early crops cover yi inch deep, and thin to 6 inches apart in the rows; for late, cover inch deep and thin to 4 inches. Danvers Half-Long Carrot PULVERIZED SHEEP MANURE is an excellent fertilizer for Gardens and Lawns. It is entirely free from weed seeds. Put up in 50 and 100 pound bags. 15 Danvers Half-Long.

Pkt., .10; oz., .20; X lb., .60 CAULIFLOWER German, — Blumenkohl Spanish, — Golifior French, — Chou-fleur One ounce of seed will produce 1,500 to 2,000 plants if sown in open ground, or about 3,000 in frames To raise good Cauliflower there is nothing so essential to success as good seed. The best Cauliflower seed is very expensive, but it is worth to the grower ten times as much as cheap and carelessly grown seeds. The best results are obtained from using Snowball for main late crop, as well as for early use. Early Cauliflower are difficult to raise and are not of the best quality, but when the plants are set out in July and the heads form in October, there is no difficulty in getting fine, large heads of first-class quality. The seed should be sown in open ground or cold frames about the middle of May or first of June, on good soil. When plants are large enough, transplant to rich, moist soil. These remarks refer to Snowball for main late crop, as well as for early use. Henderson’s Early Snowball. This is undoubtedly the finest ever introduced. It is the earliest and pro- duces beautiful snow white heads of the most delicious flavor. The seed we offer is' pure and genuine, and sure to prove satisfactory Pkt., .20; oz., $2.50 Extra Selected Dwarf Early Erfurt.

CELERY German, — Sellerie French, — Celeri Spanish,— Apio One ounce will produce 3,000 plants Sow seed the first or second week in April in hotbed or cold frame. As soon as the- plants have attained a height of three inches transplant, setting them four inches apart. As fall approaches draw earth up to the plants, keeping the stalks well together. When well blanched it is ready for use. Some of the varieties, such as Golden Self-Blanching and White Plume, may be blanched by simply placing a board 12 to 15 inches wide on edge on each side of the row. Boston Market. The best and most popular sort for cultivation. Pkt., .10; oz., .75 Giant Pascal. A strong grower and wonderful keeper. Quality very fine. Pkt., .10; oz., .50 Golden Self-Blanching. A self-blanching early golden- colored variety that is very popular. Pkt., .10; oz., .75 White Plume.

It is surpassed by none in tender- ness. y lb., .20; 1 lb., .35; 2 lbs., .60; 12 lbs., $3.00 Golden Bantam. The fact that the grains of this variety are yellow is an indication of hardiness and its value for early planting and early maturity. It is a rapid grower, and produces ears measuring about 5 inches, but the smallness of ears is fully hicide up by the deliciously sweet flavor and tender quality of the corn when cooked. It is a fine variety for the home garden. 0 U\ b., .20; lb., .35; 2 lbs., .65; 12 lbs., $3.50 FIELD AND FODDER CORN •Prides will be quoted on application on the following corns.

THE ORIGINAL ECLIPSE CORN PLANTER AND FERTILIZER DISTRIBUTER For Planting Field or Ensilage Corn, Beans, Peas or Beet Seeds Will accurately distribute all kinds of Commercial Fertilizer, Damp as well as Dry, Pulverized Hen or Sheep Manure. Plaster, Ashes and all other Fertilizer of a like Consistency. The fertilizer is taken from the top of the hopper by a revolving scraper, then drawn to the center and falls through a tube on the valve, which opens and lets the fertilizer drop on each side of the seed, placing a layer of earth between the seed and the fertilizer. All is then cov- ered at a uniform depth and rolled, which give's a quick growth and even stand. Six changes can be made in the amount of fertilizer to be used, varying from 50 to 450 lbs. per acre. When ordered, special gears will be furnished which will sow 600 or 1.000 lbs. to the acre. 17 CHERVIL One ounce will sow about 300 feet of drill Cultivated like parsley.

Pkt., .10; oz., .60; X lb., $1.25 CUCUMBER German, — Gurfe French, Concombre Spanish, — Pepino One ounce will plant 50 hills; 2 pounds will plant an acre Culture. — For earliest use, sow the seed in the hotbed or greenhouse in February or March, in warm loam, where the temperature is about 90 degrees. Cover half an inch deep, and when the plants are of fair size transplant into hills (made in the greenhouse), four plants in a hill, so that when the weather permits, the whole hill can be moved to the open ground by means of tins made for that purpose. Plant for general use in the open ground about June 1, in hills 6 feet each way, and thin to three plants in a hill. Fine old manure (about six cords per acre) is sufficient; or, better still, plant on land from which a crop has been taken, and which was heavily manured for that crop. Davis Perfect. As now selected, this popular new variety is well worthy of praise. The long, even fruits are of fine form, with an intensely dark rich green skin. With very few seeds, the solid white flesh is of superb quality for slicing.

Pkt., .10; oz., .20; lb., .60 20 MELON, MUSK German, — Melone French,— Melon Spanish, — Melon One ounce will plant about 50 hills (2 to 3 pounds in hills) per acre Melons thrive best in a light, rich soil. Plant early in May, when the ground has become warm and dry, in hills six feet apart each way for Muskmelons; eight feet for Watermelons. Previous to sowing the seed mix a few shovelfuls of well-rotted manure in each hill, and plant in , each twelve to fifteen seeds; after all danger of bugs is over, thin out to three plants per hill. When about one foot long, pinch off the tips to make them branch, as it strengthens the growth of the vines and makes the fruit mature earlier. Feed liquid manure occasionally. A few hills for early use may be had by sowing on pieces of sod in a hotbed, and when warm enough transplant to open ground) Musk Melon Emerald Gem Melon. The Emerald Gem is entirely unlike any other muskmelon yet introduced. The melons are about the size of the Netted Gem, but unlike that variety, the skin, while ribbed, is perfectly smooth, and of very deep emerald green color. The flesh which is thicker than any other native melon of the size, is of a suffused salmon color, and ripens thoroughly to the thin green rind, which is distinctly defined. The flesh is peculiarly crystalline in appearance, and so very juicy, sweet and rich that it almost drops to pieces. It matures very early and is quite productive. Pkt., .10; oz., .20; X lb., .50 Rocky Ford. This new Muskmelon is similar to the oval strain of Netted Gem. The strain here offered originated with the melon growers in the vicinity of Rocky Ford, Col., who have shipped this melon from that distant Western point to Eastern markets. The melons grown by them are so fine in quality as to out- sell all others, and the demand for such melons has been far beyond the supply. Pkt., 10; oz., .20; ^4 lb., .50 Long Yellow Musk. A long, large melon of peculiar musky flavor; a rich, yellow color, both inside and out. Pkt., .10; oz., .20; K lb., .50 Early Hackensack.

Cuban Queen. Very productive; flesh bright red, very solid, crispy and sugary. MUSTARD German, — Senf French, — Moutarde Spanish, — Mostaza One ounce will sow 75 feet of drill As an ingredient, the green Mustard imparts a de- lightfully pungent flavor to the various forms of pre- pared salads. For early crops the seed may be sown in a hotbed in March, and for general crop at frequent intervals through the spring, in drills from eight to twelve inches apart. White London. Considered the best for salads and spinach; leaves light green. It is best when about four inches high. Oz., .10; X lb., .15 ONION Select the cleanest, richest land on the farm for the Onion crop. If onions were grown on the land the pre- vious year, so much the better, but any good corn or potato land will do. Broadcast fifteen to twenty cords of fine, well-rotted manure to the acre and plow not deeper then six inches; harrow thoroughly, cross plow, and harrow again, after which hand rake with wood rake and remove stones and rubbish. Sow four to five 21 pounds of seed per acre in drills twelve to fourteen inches apart and about one-half inch deep. See that the Seed Drill is equipped with a good roller, that will press the earth firmly upon the seed. Sow as early in the spring as the ground can be properly worked. There is seldom necessity for thinning Onions if the land has been properly manured and seeded. After the Onions are three to four inches high, an application of about five hundred pounds to the acre of fertilizer, rich in available nitrogen, strewn between the rows, will be very beneficial. Keep the Onions growing by never allowing the weeds to get ahead and the acre should produce in a good average season, five hundred to seven hundred bushels. When the tops are down, the Onions may be pulled and left on the ground, and should be frequently turned with a wooden rake until tops are dried. Yellow Globe Danvers Yellow Globe Danvers. Undoubtedly the best known and most popular of all onions; the earliest yellow vari- ety; is entirely free from stiff necks. Globular in shape; has a small top. It is the most productive onion grown.

Pkt., .10; oz., .40; X lb., $1.00 Southport Red Globe. The onions from Southport, Ct., generally command an extra price in New York markets, because of their beautiful shape and color, due partly to the variety grown and partly to the favorable soil and the extra care taken in handling the crop. Pkt., .10; oz., .40; X lb., $1.00 Prize-Taker. A globe-shaped variety of delicate straw color, growing to a very large size. It ripens up hard and firm, the flesh being pure white.

Set in rows a foot apart and three to four inches between them in the row. Any good soil will suit them. When grown in quantities, high cultivation is given in order to forward the crop for an early market. They are ready for use as soon as the bulbs begin to be of fair size. Those not used in green condition will ripen early in July and make nice onions. Potato and Top onions are grown from bulbs only. Moss Curled PARSLEY German, — Peterfile French, — Persil Spanish, — Perejil One ounce for 150 feet of drill Parsley succeeds best in rich, mellow soil. As the seed germinates very slowly, it should be sown early in spring, previously soaking the seed for a few hours in tepid water. Sow thickly in rows a foot apart and half an inch deep.

Send for catalog and prices. 22 PEAS German, — Erbren French, — Pois Spanish, — Guizante One pound for 50 feet of drill; one to two bushels in drills for an acre Peas come earliest to maturity in light, rich soil. For general crop, a deep loam or a soil strongly inclined to clay is best. For early crops decomposed leaves or leaf-mold should be used; or, if the soil is very poor, strong manure may be used. For general crops a good dressing should be applied, and for the dwarf- growing kinds the soil can hardly be too rich. When Sutton’s Excelsior grown as a market crop, peas are never staked; for pri- vate use they are generally sown in double rows, and the tall varieties staked up by brush. For an early crop sow as soon as the ground can be worked, and make repeated sowings every two weeks for succession. After the first of June sowing should be discontinued until the middle of August, when a good crop may some- times be secured by sowing an extra-early sort for fall use. If sent by mail add .08 per lb. ; and for each additional lb. to the same address add .01. All marked thus (*) indicate wrinkled varieties. Extra Early Dwarf Varieties *Bliss American Wonder.

The plants are very tender and sensitive to cold, and planting must be delayed until settled warm weather. The general principles of culture are the same as those given for cucumbers and melons, but the plants are less particular as to soil. The summer varieties should be planted four feet apart each way, and the winter sorts eight 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 slightest injury will increase the liability to decay. Improved Hubbard.

A light soil, well manured the previous year, is the best. A few hundred pounds per acre of quick-acting fertilizer will have a tendency to make the roots smooth, and to make the rapid growth so essential in producing sweet and palatable turnips. 27 Extra Early Purple Top Milan (Flat).

The lowest market price will be quoted on application. SPECIAL ATTENTION While we carry several grades of the different varieties of seeds, we recommend our Purity Brand as the very best the market affords. These seeds are strictly Northern grown, and are selected by us because they possess the two essential qualities of purity and vitality. It is well known that there have been large quantities of Grass and Clover Seed sold as pure, which official analysis has shown to contain large percentages of adultera- tion. This not only defrauds the planter by selling him a worse than useless article, but inflicts injury also by filling his land with noxious weeds. We list Grass and Clover Seed according to their quality, grading down from our Purity Brand, which is always the best. Timothy, Clovers, Millets, Red Top in several grades Purity Brand Lawn Seed Our own mixture, from the purest seeds obtainable. We can surely please you on this brand.

The above recommendations are condensed and are somewhat subject to change depending upon conditions in various sections of the country. Where an effective combination Insecticide and Fungicide is desired, ” Bordo-Arsenate” used at same strength as indicated for Dry Powdered Arsenate of Lead will give splendid results. Dry Powdered Bordeaux Mixture can be used as a dry dust just as it comes from the package or in combination with equal quantities of Dry Powdered Arsenate of L ad or Arsenate of Calcium. When using Dry Powdered Bordeaux Mixture as a wet spray use from three to five pounds to fifty gallons of water for the control of most fungus diseases. Dry Powdered Insecticides can be used for dry" dusting- just aa they come from the package. For the convenience of the home gardener, the above table will be of interest. Dry Powdered Arsenate of Lead where used at strength of one pound to fifty gallons of water, should be used at rate of two to three teaspoonfuls to one gallon of water. Dry Powdered Arsenate of Calcium where used at rate of three-fourths pound to fifty gallons of water, should be used at rate of two to three teaspoonfuls to one gallon of water. Dry Powdered Bordeaux Mixture when used at rate of three pounds to fifty gallons of water, should be used at the rate of from nine to twelve teaspoonfuls to one gallon of water. Dry Powdered Bordo-Arsenate. when used at rate of one pound to fifty gallons of water should be used at rate of three- to four- teaspoonfuls to one gallon of water. ADVISED DUSTING SCHEDULE FOR APPLES Time: 1. Late winter Spring Material: Dormant dust, soluble sulphur compound for liquid spray To Control: Scale and early scab 2. Prepink Bud: 7 to 10 days before pink bud — just as the blossom buds commence to swell Use “Pomodust” Apple scab 3. Pink Bud: Just as the buds begin to show pink Use “Pomodust” Apple scab, bud moth, case bearer, and canker worms 4. CALYX: Just after Use Fruitex @ Apple scab, codling petals fall. 85% sulphur and 15% Arsenate of Lead moth, caterpillars of all kinds 5. 10 to 14 days after Calyx Use Fruitex Late broods of codling moth, lesser apple worm, and green fruit worm 6. About July 5-15 Use Fruitex Apple maggot or R.R. worm trypeter Three or four are the principal dustings to date — after this watch out and more or less dustings can be saved. NOTES (A) In damp season on varieties like McIntosh Reds and R. I. Greenings susceptible to apple scab apply a light dusting every 10 days, making 100 lbs. of “Sulfodust” cover 200 trees 20 yrs. of age. (B) After Aug. 20th use “Sulfodust;” it contains no poison, and is cheap protection from apple scab and sooty blotch. (C) Railroad Worm. Trap to find date of emergence and dust immediately with Fruitex. Thus period usually first or second week in July. Repeat again in 14 days. QUANTITY TO USE For 20 yr. old trees use about one lb. Pomodust, Fruitex or “Sulfodust.” Smaller or larger trees in proportion. APHIS. In case of heavy infestation of aphis, use A-l according to severity of infestation.

It can be used without fear of weeds and foreign grasses that always follow the application of ordinary stable manures. For the lawn there is nothing better, and its con- venience makes it the logical fertilizer. There is no straw or other refuse in it as is always the case with crude manures. Barnyard manure should never be applied to a lawn, as it usually contains seeds of noxious weeds, which germinate and grow. A few wmeks will show surprising results. Its use on the vegetable garden will double the yield and insure better vegetables, also hurry the growth for earlier table use. Probably the best way to use it is to scatter it broadcast, harrowing or raking it lightly but reserving a little to use in the hills or drills. Then the young plants will have some nourishment close at hand to give them a good start.

Gardeners and farmers who have used Farm- ogerm would not be without it. Farmogerm Stays Good Indefinitely Farmogerm keeps for years. Because of the method of sealing the bottle — a patented stopper which admits filtered air and keeps out all impurities — Farmogerm is just as good in five years as when first bottled. Other inoculants get weaker each day — Farmogerm always has its full strength. Just add water and shake the bottle and sprinkle over the seeds as directed. Your crop will benefit beyond your expectations. Farmogerm is Economical No other inoculant on the market is so strong and virile; no other inoculant will thoroughly treat as much seed. The one-acre size bottle of Farmogerm is suffi- cient for 15 pounds of clover, 20 pounds of alfalfa, 100 pounds of Canada Field Peas, 60 pounds of Vetch, etc. A special composite culture is prepared for peas, beans and sweet peas — ^4-acre size only. You’ll get more peas and beans, and larger sweet peas by using this. Ask for No. 5, price 50 cents. Farmogerm prices are; 1-acre size, $1; 3-acre size, $2.50; 12-acre size, $9.

Remember, it is not how many chicks you HATCH that counts, but how many you RAISE. Chicks that hatch out weak Queen Standard and wobbly, and live but a few days, mean nothing to you but trouble and loss. They make one sick of the poultry business. Most of the chicks you lose in the first few weeks die because they did not have, when hatched, enough strength or vitality for a good start. Proper Insulation The Queen is doubly insulated. First we use double walls of California Redwood, forming a dead air space. Second, corrugated strawboard is used between the wooden walls. Queen Hot Water Heating The Queen System of hot water heating prevents the drying out tendencies found in hot air incubators and provides a soft, uniform heat over every part of the egg chamber — a heat that is most natural for the hatching eggs. The circulation of water through the radiator prevents any moisture being added or taken away from the eggs. When it becomes necessary to remove the lamp, the hot water circulating through the radiator maintains an even heat within the egg chamber without the slightest variation. Built of California Redwood The Queen is the only In- cubator that carries out the double redwood wall con- struction all around, and provides a double wall front, in the way of two separate doors. The outer door is a solid panel of redwood that is hinged entirely independ- ent of the inner door. The inner door is also containing a panel of glass the full length and height of the egg chamber.

Price $36.75 Queen Brooders The Queen Col- ony Brooder is a new and improved design of brooder stove. It is made of highest quality iron castings that will wear and last indefinitely. There are no drafts on the smoke pipe of the Queen. The check rests on top of the stove and opens outward when the fire is too warm, thus giving a gen- tle inflow of air to retard the heat. While the opening of the draft to increase the fire is located at the top of the stove, it opens into the fire at the base through an opening extending down the side to the bottom. This feeds the draft into the fire from underneath with no opening below the hover. As will be seen from the illustration, the check and draft lids are cast together and operated together. Thus, when the fire is too hot, the wafer expands and closes the draft and opens the check, both at the same time. When it is too cool the wafer contracts and closes the check and opens the draft. This keeps^an even heat all the time. No. 1, 42 in. Hover, 600 Chicks, Shipping Wt. 77 lbs. Price $21.50 No. 2, 52 in. Hover, 1,200 Chicks, Shipping Wt. 104 lbs.

Price, $18.00 International Sanitary Hover Advantages possessed by the International Hover and not to be found in any other brooding device. 1. It is warmer at the curtain than near the center. This causes the chicks to distrib- ute themselves just back of the edge of the curtain where they have a consistent sup- ply of fresh air and plenty of room. 2. It is entirely circular and has no corners for the chicks to crowd into. 3. The lamp holder can be lifted out through the top’of the hover by a person standing up. This makes it unnecessary for the operator to kneel in the dust andjmud to tend his lamp. It gives ample heat under the hover without so heating the surrounding floor space as to cause leg weakness among the chicks Price: Sanitary Hover, 28 in.

How It Works All working parts are made easily accessible. The base with all working parts is quickly unscrewed and opened up for cleaning or adjustment. The plunger is pushed down into the crown of the weed and the hole is enlarged by moving the handle with a circular motion. Then by pressing down the handle, the valve opens, the desired amount* of weed killing solution is deposited in the centre of the root to be killed and the work is done. Price, $1.00.

Pure Colonial Paints have qualities which distinguish them from other products now on the market. The brief ques- tions and answers given below will tell you why “Colonial” Paints are better and worthy of your use and sale. What was the material originally used in making paint? Before paints were prepared and sold ready for use, the principal materials used in making paint were white lead and linseed oil. Did these materials make an ideal paint? These materials did not make an ideal paint. They were good as far as they went, but they did not go far enough. It has been found by many severe tests and much careful experi- menting that better paint can be pro- duced by combining zinc in right pro- portions with pure lead and linseed oil. Why does this make an ideal paint? The zinc counteracts the tendency of the lead to powder and chalk, greatly increasing the life of the paint. It also makes a whiter paint and when used with lead as a base for the various colored shades of paint it serves to make a combination that takes coloring matter readily. What are other superior qualities of prepared paint? The combination of zinc and lead enables the manufacturer to get the largest possible quantity of linseed oil into each gallon. This is very im- portant, as pure linseed oil, more than any other ingredient, gives durability and life to the paint. What do all good paints contain? _ All good prepared paints contain zinc, lead and oil. Zinc is used in the form of oxide of zinc and lead as car- bonate of lead. Is it necessary to use these in combination or will lead and oil do as well? Years of experimenting have dem- onstrated that carbonate of lead alone when used with zinc does not give the highest degree of efficiency, but, when HOUSE PAINT SECTION combined in the right proportions, the combination is ideal. Is it necessary that the right proportions of these be used? The proportions in which the nec- essary pigments — oxide of zinc and carbonate of lead are used, are im- portant; when combined in incorrect proportions the paint will be far from satisfactory. It should be borne in mind that the mere fact that a paint contains white lead and zinc does not necessarily mean that the paint is good. The form in which the lead is used, and the correct proportions, are most essential. Is Colonial Outside White a strictly pure paint? Colonial Outside White is an ab- solutely pure paint, containing nothing but pure carbonate of lead, pure oxide of zinc, and pure linseed oil, with the necessary drier. How are these materials put to- gether?? These materials are intelligently and honestly handled so as to give the maximum paint value in each can and color. What does our Mechanical and Technical Skill mean? The Colonial Paints represent the best practical paint knowledge in the field today. It has been on the market for twenty-six years and is sold in practically every important field in the world. It enjoys as wide a sale as almost any other paint on the market. It has achieved its success because it has always given better results than can be obtained from other paints. Is the consumer’s interest best served in purchasing Colonial Pre- pared Paint? The*man who buys lead and oil and prepares it himself or who has a painter prepare it cannot possibly make a paint equal to the Colonial Paint. It is a case of hard work against exact formulas and grinding with pow- erful machinery. It is taking chances on the quality of raw material against the certainty given us by our labo- ratories. What other features make us best fitted to serve the public? If it were not for prejudice no one would ever buy lead and oil when they could get the Colonial Paints with their superior quality. We use the finest grade of paint material and machinery of our own design, built in our own machine shops, and we are able to make a paint that has the greatest durability and therefore the greatest economy. Colonial Paint produces the finest finish and is the best paint made. 68 How may the proper amount of paint be estimated? To ascertain the quantity of Colonial Paint required for two coats: Measure the distance around the building; mul- tiply that by the average heights, which will give the square feet of siding; divide that by three hundred (the number of square feet the Colonial Paints cover, two coats to the gallon), which will give you approximately the number of gallons of Colonial Paint to buy for the body; then add one-eighth to one- fifth of this quantity, which will give you the amount for the cornice and other trimmings, waste, etc. How is Colonial Paint successfully applied? Colonial Paint is prepared ready for use, and is as heavy in consistency as is ever required. Under some cir- cumstances it must be thinned before use, in accordance with the directions which appear on each package. Where possible employ a good painter. What are other essentials in mak- ing a good job? Stir the paint thoroughly from the bottom and pour it back and forth from six to ten times from one bucket to another, before attempting to use it. Success in painting depends upon the use of good materials properly mixed and stirred to a uniform con- sistency and carefully applied on a proper surface under favorable con- ditions. What are conditions to be avoided in application? The important thing is to know what to do and how to do it, and when not to do and how to avoid it. Good results should never be ex- pected when paint is applied under the following conditions: Over a surface which is wet and frosty. Over a sur- face which is covered with smoke and grease. Over green or pitchy lumber. Over a previous coat of paint which is not thoroughly dry. Is a good first, or foundation coat of especial importance? If cracking, peeling or scaling occurs •on buildings painted with good pre- pared paints, it is in majority of cases traceable to the priming coat. The importance of a correct priming coat is not generally appreciated. It is the foundation, and if that is wrong, no paint can wear satisfactorily. Any thing is not good enough for priming; the very best is none too good; therefore use Colonial Paint thinned down with lin- seed oil and turpentine, to allow the pigment to enter the pores of the wood, giving it life and a solid foundation for successive coats. COLONIAL PAINTS WHAT IS BRONZITE? What is Bronzite ? Bronzite is a specialty green paint. It is not an ordinary ready-mixed green. It is one permanent intensified green. What makes Bronzite perma- nent ? There are certain chemical reasons why green — the average green — is a notoriously poor color to hold. It is the disregard of these chemical facts in the making of ordinary greens that causes them to fade and disintegrate. What is ore base ? It is Kolonite — composed chiefly of iron, silica and carbon, when finely pulverized it has a durability and retaining power never before found for paint making. farther than that of an ordinary paint. This is a fact. Painters who use Bronzite for the first time often remark that a brush full goes farther than any green paint they have ever before used. Is Bronzite equally good as an outside and inside paint ? Decidedly it is, because of its resistance to weather conditions Bronzite is ideal for exterior uses. As Bron- zite is the best outside green it naturally follows that it must be the best Has the Rock kL to mb back ib m up ” NATURAL' The Ore of Kolonite MAKES THE PAINT OF BRONZITE What other materials are used in the manufacture of Bronzite ? With the highest quality of chem- ically-correct green and Kolonite we use strictly pure linseed oil, and by means of a special process remove all impurities detrimental to long life in paint. What additional factors figure in Bronzite’s superiority ? We have the advantage of twenty- five years’ experience in developing Bronzite to its present high standard. The quarter century that Bronzite has been on the market is long enough to make or break any product. The fact that Bronzite is the leading green paint, is a big consideration to distributers and dealers who know how vitally manufacturing experience and leader- ship contribute to the successful selling of a paint specialty. Today Bronzite is better than ever. inside green, inside con- ditions being much less severe than outside. In what size packages is Bronzite put up? Liquid Bronzite — in 1-gallon, Vi- gallon, ^-gallon, 1-pint, H-pint tin packages, in 5-gallon packages, and in barrels. How can the painter or other user prove Bronzite claims before he buys? Any painter or other user interested in a superior permanent green paint can obtain a liberal-sized working sample through one of our dealers. These testing samples have sold many thou- snads of gallons of Bronzite during the twenty-five years it has been on the market. What are some of the principal uses inside and out? Woodwork, floors, furniture, mat- ting, window shades, screens, walls, suggest a few of the many interior home uses of Bronzite. What about Bronzite as an out- side mill and factory paint? Bronzite is extensively used on the outside of all kinds of mill and factory buildings — wood, brick, concrete, metal siding, wood and enamel, window frames, wire screens, gratings, water tanks, fences, all kinds of roofs, etc. It would be difficult to find a better exterior preservative paint than Bron- zite. What about Bronzite as an in- side mill and factory paint ? It is used for dadoes, column bases, trim walls, machinery and wide variety of other interior mill uses. Why does Bronzite cover more surface than the average green ? The density of the ore base and the pigment gives a heavy body that lit- erally causes Bronzite to “stretch out” FLOOR AND DECK ENAMEL FLOOR AND DECK ENAMEL is the result of a scientific investi- gation as to the best materials, and the proper manner of combining them, in order to produce a desired result, viz : An enamel that will dry quickly, be firm, and successfully withstand to the greatest possible degree the hard usage to which floors and like surfaces are necessarily subjected. FLOOR AND DECK ENAMEL is manufactured with the express aim of furnishing a durable and handsome coating for all floors. It dries with a beautiful lustre, is elastic, very tough and absolutely free from the stickiness found in ordinary enamel. While it has the qualities necessary for the best floor coating, it may also be ap- plied with satisfaction to any surface exposed to the weather where the shades in which it is made suit the taste, and where a beautiful finish is desired. The combination of materials composing FLOOR AND DECK ENAMEL make it a valuable disinfectant. Floors will not keep in good condition if neglected or abused, Finish your floors well in the first instance. A stingy economy in such cases is unwise. Then keep them in good shape by a little attention and work. If properly done at first, the subsequent care of them is much easier and the satisfaction immense. 69 COLONIAL PAINTS r A short cat- echism for all Distributers, Dealers, Master Painters, Building Con- tractors, Ar- chitects, Own- ers, and ail others who are looking for more light on the sanitary wall finish question. A ready-reference text for the many questions arising on /the subject. What is Vel-ve-ta? Vel-ve-ta is a sanitary washable non-absorbent coating for walls and general interior painting — new work and old. There are dozens of flat wall finishes. Why Vel-ve-ta? Because of the materials from which Vel-ve-ta is made and the manner in which these materials are combined. Vel-ve-ta’s peculiar method of man- ufacture and the composition of its elements are patented. It is a dis- tinctive product. What are some of the character- istics of Vel-ve-ta materials and the process of manufacture? Under the miscroscope, Vel-ve-ta shows an even, homogenous surface, without spaces between the molecules. The irregular particles of the soluble content are brought together into per- fect cohesion with one another through the medium of a binder. This pro- vides . an air-tight film of protective covering through which dampness can- not penetrate. A wall finish may be of a very fair degree of whiteness, but this may not be permanent. Also many times tints are not lasting. Does Vel-ve-ta stay white and do the tints last? Vel-ve-ta _ white stays white; its whiteness is inherent; it does not dis- color when not exposed to weather. Also the colors and tints are lasting. Some wall finishes show laps and brush marks. Will Vel-ve-ta do this? Vel-ve-ta should be flowed on and evened up like a varnish. It will not show laps or brush marks. Will Vel-ve-ta crack or “alliga- tor?’* Absolutely no. Neither will it peel nor chip. In what form does Vel-ve-ta come? Flat and Enamel. In what tints? In thirteen tints and white. These tints can be greatly multiplied. What about cost? WHAT IS VEL-VE-TA? Figure the cost of a wall-finishing job, not by the price of the material, but according to the amount of surface the material will probably cover. Vel- ve-ta ’s increased covering capacity — due to the superior materials used, fine grinding and perfect amalgamation — gives the lowest possible cost in actual results. What about its application to different surfaces — new and old? It is equally good for new and old surfaces — for any surface: painted, kalsomined, sand-finished and plas- tered walls; painted and unpainted woodwork; painted and new metal surfaces; decorative plaster figures; concrete; inlaid work; interior marine work; burlap, tapestry, shade cloth, etc. Any surface and material not exposed to weather can be improved and decorated with Vel-ve-ta. It can actually be applied over old wall paper. When can it be used for one-coat work? For walls, in any tint or color, Vel- ve-ta makes a most beautiful, clear, even finish without stippling, laps or brush marks. In fact, Vel-ve-ta has many uses heretofore undreamed of as being possible with one coat of anything except kalsomine. W e espec- ially recommend it for one-coat work. When should Vel-ve-ta be used for two-coat work? Metal ceilings with one coat Flat White and one-coat Gloss make a beautiful enamel finish with but two coats. In colored, one coat only need be used. What about woodwork? Woodwork of any grain or color can be covered with one-coat colored for a satisfactory job. A very fine job is the result of one-coat Vel-ve-ta Flat and one-coat White Eagle Enamel, making a white job that can actually be rubbed with rotten stone and water. Some “washable” finishes won’t wash. Will Vel-ve-ta? N The homogenous nature of Vel-ve- ta makes a paint film that is water- proof. Wash it as often as necessary i without injury to the surface. A veiy desirable feature where soft coal is used. How does Vel-ve-ta compare witht the old fashioned lead and turpen- tine? There is no comparison from the- standpoint of results. Vel-ve-ta is. infinitely better. From the stand- point of cost, it costs only half as- much, because it covers twice as much j surface by actual tests. Its first cost j is but little more than that of kal- somine. Over a five-year period, Vel- ve-ta is much cheaper than kalsomine. - It can always be renewed over the old coat. It does not require washing off. Also — it can always be cleaned with soap and water; kalsomine can- not be. Discriminating painters and decora- tors obtain beautiful results by using Vel -ve-ta white and tints in the finest. \ residential work. Architects, painters, contractors and owners alike are well pleased with Vel-ve-ta for this pur- pose. They are equally well pleased with it for the “big” office building, “institutional” and other jobs. Its great economy makes it the ideal wall finish for “big” work. Incidentally, for this reason, many dealers and painters are going after “big volume” business with Vel-ve-ta and getting it. Vel-ve-ta Enamel. A Handsome Pure White Enamel Finish. Holds its lustre indefinitely and easy to apply. Also in tints and colors. International Elastic Carbon Paint A practical, scientific blending and grinding of oils and pigments mak- ing a paint of enduring elasticity, for shingle, felt, canvas, paper, asphalt, tin and iron roofs, bridges, machinery, tanks, iron or steel buildings, smoke stacks, boilers, burners, brick, tile, concrete, farming tools, wagons, also the huUsfand bottoms of vessels and boats. SBBafifl 70 STOPS/aLEAKS STORMTIGHT is an adhesive compound, ten times thicker than paint. It does not dry out nor become hard and brittle. Under the slow curing process that it undergoes, the top surface becomes firm but the body of the material underneath remains pliable and elastic, so that it readily conforms to the expansion and contraction of the roof surfaces. It retains its rubber-like con- sistency indefinitely under all weather conditions. Stormtight is the result of years of scientific research. Hundreds of exposure tests were made on every kind of roofing material, under varied weather conditions. These tests were closely watched. One by one the harmful ingredients were rejected, the wrong combinations eliminated, until the present formula was arrived at, which gives you a roofing product* with the following ideal characteristics: A one-piece covering without joints or nail holes. Impervious to rain, snow, wind and sun. Unaffected by gaseous vapors, acids or alkalies. Will not harden, crack or peel. Highly fire resistant. Low in cost. Stormtight can be applied in any weather, by anybody. It sticks to any kind of roofing material; no matter whether the roof is wet or dry, hot or cold, you can stop a leak a few minutes after you discover it. Stormtight is a scientific blend of oils, special waterproofers, reinforcing pigments and asphalt, based on years of investigation and practical tests.

This Outfit is composed of our No. 612AM Self-Oiling Bulldozer, 2)4 x 3 inch, Pump mounted complete with a 34 H. P. Motor, Pressure Gauge and Electric Switch. The Air Chamber on the Line Pipe is of sufficient size to properly cushion the stream and at the same time not to allow any unnecessary surplus water, as is the case in all Storage Tanks. It is never necessary to draw more than one gal- lon of water until the pump starts, after which it pumps fresh water direct from the supply to the faucets. OPERATION: The Myers Direct Water System is of sufficient capacity to pump directly against the faucets supplying an ordinary residence. The opening of any faucet starts the Pump. Fig. 2211.

The Power End consists of a one-piece casting which forms the base of the pump and oil reservoir and encloses all working parts, protecting them from dirt or injury, and securing safety of operation. From the oil reservoir in the base, oil is carried by the main gear to the highest parts of the pump and by a system of channels distributed to all moving parts and returned again to the reservoir. This system of flood lubrication contributes quiet operation and long life, with a minimum of attention.

Only 36 inches to the top of box — 6 to 10 inches lower than other spreaders — a big time- and labor-saving feature. Easier on the Horses. The high wheels on this spreader, from 4 to -8 inches higher than used on other spreaders, give it a light-draft advantage. The load of manure, which in itself weighs a ton on the average, is moved back to the beater on an apron which runs on many rollers — the load is not dragged. The location of the beater in relation to the apron is such that the teeth engage the manure as it is fed to them in practically a horizontal position — they do not work against the load as it moves backward. Does a Better Job of Spreading. You can load the John Deere just right for the most effective spreading — flat on top and from the front to the rear.. Deere J. B.

It is full oversize, handsome, dependable, and can be used on either light or heavy cars. Thousands of users find Richlands the most satisfactory tire they have ever bought, not only in low cost of mileage, but in comfortable, care-free driving. The perfect “grab” of the thick, tough tread, which has exceptional non-skid quality, the resiliency of the large air space and the balanced side wall construction, are features that instantly impress the motorist. For these reasons the Richland is recommended to dealers as a first class business builder, since its reputation for satisfactory performance travels rapidly. This inspires enthusiasm for active sales effort and assures reward in steadily increased volume of business. We offer the Richland with full confidence in its quality and the service it will render. Standard Cords This tire is designed to fill the requirements of those who wish a cord tire that can be used on cars already equipped with regular size tires of either cord or fabric type. It is built of the same high grade materials as the Heavy Car Type Richland and with the same care throughout. It is an all black tire and naturally lower in cost because of its smaller size, yet is capable of long endurance. The same principles of construction are used as in the Heavy Type cord, which makes it easy riding and desirable from every standpoint. It is a very popular tire and warrants the fair trial it bespeaks by its attrac- tive appearance. Energetic sales promotion in its special field will be well repaid. “Sure Service” Tan Tubes The Richland “Sure Service” Tan Tube is not intended to give out — it must wear out only after long service — longer than the tire it supports. It is very heavy and made extra large to fit all over- size cords. Laminated construction from several plies of thin sheets of the finest rubber obtainable insures against porosity, and it is specially treated to resist the heat developed by tires in hard service. The valve seat is reinforced with heavy fabric. The extra long splice prevents weakness at that point — in short this tube is absolutely the perfection of tube manufacture and the service it gives confirms every claim made for it. 102 Richland Tires and Tubes Commercial Service Cords PRESENT day demands upon pneumatic truck cords call for the utmost of skill in manufacture that can be embodied in them. Richland tire engineers have met the many problems of construction in the most gratifying manner. The Richland is a husky, dependable truck tire. It has great strength and toughness, yet sufficient resiliency to carry equally well heavy loads of dead weight without the jolt and jar that cause injury to the truck itself, or lighter loads of fragile character, where the traction wave is less and higher speed is possible with safety. Non-skid properties and in resistance to rut wear and side-wall chafing it is unsurpassed. It is particularly well adapted to bus or heavy limousine use. The edges of the tread are bolstered against rolling wear and to insure even wear under all road conditions. Individual and fleet owners who keep accurate records of tire costs, find that the Richland Commercial Service Cord delivers high mileage at low cost, with minimum lay-up for repairs. Recommended for all trucks using the following sizes: 32x4 33x4 34x43^, 33x5, 34x5, 35x5, 36x6 Fabrics The Richland Fabric has been brought to a high degree of excellence and durability. It is an all black tire, built of the highest quality materials throughout, with the same integrity of purpose that characterizes all Richland tire production. It has a very tough and effective non-skid tread, which delivers higher than average mileage. Its popu- larity grows rapidly wherever introduced, and it can be recommended with entire confidence in its satisfaction-giving quality. Grey Tubes The Richland Grey Tube is composed of the very best materials and made throughout with the care that is characteristic of all Rich- land production. The splice is extra long and is steam vulcanized. The valve stem is strongly reinforced. This tube can be recom- mended with certainty that it will more than meet the expectations of buyers. 103 INDEX A Auger, Post Hole 61 Axes, Chopping GO Axes, Ice 60 B Bag Balm 47 Bags, Feed 49 Balls, Ox 48 Bands, Leg 41 Barrows, Wheel 101 Bars, Ice 60 Baskets, Galvanized 64 Baskets.

The reg- ister will support a weight of 2,000 pounds. The return air pipe can be adjusted to any basement height of 6 feet or more. The combination register, copper oxidized and beautifully finished. The CaloriC name in center is your guarantee. The proper ratio of the warm air outlet to the return air section has been care- fully determined after years of tests and experi- ments. Absence of angles reduces friction and prevents pock- eting of air. This in- creases the volume of air that passes in and out of the CaloriC furnace. This insulating air cham- ber acts as a positive di- vision between the bodies of warm and return air. This patented construction prevents the radiation of heat to the basement. The air is constantly circulating through this channel, Pat- ent No. 1346801. Casing and caps are drawn together by special lugs to make an extremely tight fit. No cellar dust or ashes can be drawn in through these joints. The absence of sharp angles in the air and fire travel adds materially to the heating efficiency and saves fuel. The famous CaloriC double-ribbed fire- pot is made of the best grade of pig iron and in- sured for a period of 5 years by the CaloriC Mon- ey-back Guarantee. The insulating chamber ends at a proper height from the base of the Cal- oriC, permitting a free and easy flow of return air to the hot castings Inside casing is one inch longer to deflect ample supply of cool air into circulating air channel. The sturdy braces and sup- ports make the CaloriC the most rigid type. This con- struction prevents warping and holds the inner and outer casings an equal dis- tance apart. The large scientifically pro- portioned air passages of the CaloriC give it a greater heating capacity than any other warm-air furnace. Large, straight channel in- sures an adequate supply of return air, so essential to great capacity and ef- ficiency. This patented CaloriC divi- sion plate makes possible the straight flush front con- struction, and provides for an equal circulation of re- turn air through the four sides of register. This ex- clusive feature insures a cool cellar. Imitators dare not copy this design. The Caloric radiator is placed directly in the center of the CaloriC where the greatest volume of heat is generated and distributed through the center of the register. Handy cleanout for remov- al of soot. Outoide shaker handle is convenient and easily op- erated from standing po- sition. Eliminates dust from cellar. Tight fitting fuel door pre- vents escape of smoke and gas. The CaloriC water pan is large and properly placed so that the heated castings evaporate the water rap- idly. This produces a balmy, moist, warm air, conducive to good health. The pan is low and easy to fill. The ashpit door is dust- proof and contains an easily regulated damper. CaloriC grates are durable and readily cleaned.
