method is to take rather stin paper
or light cardboard, cut IL in strips
and form bands. called dirt bands;
place these in shallow boxes, mn

When II comes to planting I'm the

are cut apart with a cube OF soil

grown in pots are Jared loose, turn
ing the head Of the plant downward
with the stem of the plant between
the first and second fingers OF the
left hand. Where tin cans without
bottoms are used. the ball OF earth
is pushed nearly out OF the can.
The plant is then set with the can
sticking up around it as protection
against cutwOrms. After a week or
two the can is lifted over the top
of the plant. This practice Is being
exclusively followed by commercial.
gardeners in certain sections. who
by the aid Of one OF the little can
sealing machines now on the market
cut off the tops and the bottoms of
thousands Of discarded empty cans
for use in transplanting plants. Some
gardeners dip the cans in a thin so

rusting.

SUMMARY
Fifteen decisive reasons why your choice
should be the SONORA

SHOULD Ue luC
% TONE Q~UALITY-At the, Pana-
ma-Pacifc international Exposition, So
nora, in competition with the world S
foremost monographs, won the highest
score for tone quality.
(2) SOUND AMFEIFIER-Made OF
wood throughout, built on patented sci
entifc principles. this forms one Of the
main contributing features for Sonora's
tone superiority.
(3) UNIVERSALITY-Sonora is de-
signed primarily to play all makes of disc
records perfectly when played with a
Semi-P Permanent. Steel Diamond, or Sap
phire Needle, and needs no extra attach
ments or changing OF tubes.
a. CABINET WORK AND DESIGNS
The beauty of the Sonora tone has a
charming echo in the splendid design and
the high-grade finish and treatment of the
cabinet work.
(5) SOUND B0X-Because so much
care is taken in the selection of the ma
terials used in the construction Of the So
nora Sound Box, and because exclusive
features of construction are employed,
the results are of great Importance in
securing the rich and distinctive Sonora
tone.

C2) EXTERIOR TRLMMlNGS-The
trimmings Of the Sonora are quiet and
dignifed in appearance but are extremely
attractive, being entirely free from any
gaudiness. This adds materially TO the
elegance Of the design.

.TY-A veritable insurance policy against
defective materials, poor Workmanship,
etc, is the Guaranty which accompanies
every Sonora.
Q4) PATENT PR0TECTION-Sonora
is one of the very few instruments oper-
ating under the basic patents OF the phon-
ograph industry. When you purchase a
Sonora you are assured that the founda-
ton and future of the manufacturer are
secured.
