*VeUhhU uxd&uvcïks THAT'S Scotch W I T H T H E D O L L A R S ! . . . Another example of what GEON polyvinyl materials can do H E N an orchard grows on a slope, W or if the ground is gravelly, irri­ gation is tough, and costly t o o . The irrigation hose you see here cuts costs dramatically because it's made of Geon resin, the polyvinyl material with so many advantages. For example, the mirror-like interior finish of this hose cuts friction loss of the water flow. This permits using much less footage of costly, under­

ground steel supply pipe. Six to eight sprinklers can be used per line—com­ pared to three or four with ordinary hose. Those are just a few of the advan­ tages of this Geon-made irrigation hose. It is one-third to one-half lighter in weight than ordinary hose of com­ parable size. N o kinks—ever. Sunlight will not break it down. Its brilliant color makes it easy to see. This hose gets its remarkable quali­

ties from Geon—the versatile material that makes wear-resistant upholstery, t o u g h wire insulation, durable and beautiful flooring a n d , o f course, garden hose. These uses may start you thinking how Geon can improve your product —or perfect a new one. Geon materials can be extruded, calendered into film or used as a coating. Products of Geon can be made resistant to heat, cold, water, oil, aging and other damaging factors. Brilliant or delicate colors are easy to get. We make no finished products from Geori polyvinyl materials. But we're ready to help you with your applica­ t i o n s . For information or technical service, please write Dept. B-9, B. F.
