PAYS FOR ITSELF

IN CUTTING DOWN CUTTING COSTS

IF yours is an 18 hole course, isn't it so, that it takes four men the best

part of half a day with hand mowers, to do the job right?

Suppose then, one man could do the same job in less time and do it better, would you be interested?

Easy enough to figure how that saving would cut down your cutting costs.

"But", you reply, "a Worthington Over-

green runs into money."" Our reply to that is: What if it does run into money. It doesn't actually cost you any money, simply because it pays for itself in the money it saves.

Of course if saving money doesn't interest you — well then, send for the catalog just the same. Some of the other good things this Worthington Overgreen does may be of interest.

Fairway Watering costs

are Down! Most clubs know the vital impor-tance of adequate watering for improving and protecting their turf.

Few, it seems, know what a modern fairway watering system costs— they are guessing, and guessing al-together too high.

Today fairway watering costs are down. Let us give you accurate in-stallation and operating cost infor-mation gained from experience with hundreds of installations.

Save • • • # Your investment in turf from

disastrous results of drouth.

9 Your membership roster from m i g r a t i n g to neighboring watered courses.

# The costs of experimenting with unproved equipment and faulty installation. Let the other fel-low do the experimenting.

Men Who Really Know Machinery... BUY TORO!

GO around to any section and ask the most prominent

Superintendents just what machinery to buy. Three out of four will answer "Toro".

There is a reason for this, because for fifteen years the Toro name has been associated with progress in high quality construction and courtesy in dealing with users.

That is why today the vast majority of able Superin-tendents will answer your request in two simple words— "Buy Toro".

Shop around if you wish. You will find cheaper machinery, but if you follow the judgment of experienced men, your choice will be Toro.

"U.S ." Royal Golf Hose is as strong, resilient —tough as a tire, because it is built l ike a tire —the only lawn hose that is. That's why it can take so much abuse. That is why it stands up under the r o u g h e s t , t o u g h e s t t r e a t m e n t , year after y e a r . . . . Furthermore, "U.S ."

"U.S." Royal Cord is made by the world's largest producer of rubber —the "U.S." trade mark behind this hose is your guaran-tee of dependability.
