That Lawn of Yours 



can be made just as smooth and velvety, of as 

 full even growth, free from tufts and weeds as the 

 one you have always admired, if you will use a 



DUNHAM ROLLER 



Patented. 

 Our book entitled " The Proper Care of Lawns " tells all about lawn 

 making and keeping. Explains some of the little known uses of a Lawn 

 Roller and tells why the patented features of the Dunham, the Roller 

 Bearings and Sectional Construction make it by far the best, most 

 economicaii and easiest to operate.

of using the black pipe in such places, 

 where it is carrying water most of the 

 time and is often lying in the dirt. I 

 heard of a grower recently, near Chi- 

 cago, who in building had his angle- 

 iron purlins and his ventilating ma- 

 chinery all galvanized, as well as much 

 other iron and steel work about the 

 greenhouse. 



Galvanized hinges, nails and screws 

 can be purchased of the dealers in 

 greenhouse material, and common nails, 

 etc., should not be used at all. I could 

 never be induced to put in a trussed 

 house unless all rods, nuts, etc., were 

 galvanized. Cast iron does not rust 

 away, and good wrought iron, the kind 

 we used to get, is almost as good, but 

 the more the metal is worked the more 

 liable it is to rust. H. G. 



LAND SALT. 



What is land salt and how should it 

 be used? E. M. 



Land salt is a somewhat coarse brand 

 of salt, which can be advantageously 

 broadcasted on land about to be seeded 

 down to hay. It kills out quantities of 

 weeds and does not injure the grass. 

 It is also valuable for applying to as- 

 paragus beds, and for spreading on road- 

 ways to kill out weeds. It is well to 

 apply it in dry weather, as it will then 

 kill out weeds more effectually.

Nantucket, Mass. — Fred Fisher and 

 Henry Fisher are each erecting a 

 greenhouse here. 



Pittsfield, Mass.— John White, on 

 New West street, and Miss Mary Grey, 

 his bookkeeper, were married March 20. 

 Mr. White has a prosperous, well es- 

 tablished business. For several years 

 he has defied all efforts of the Con- 

 solidated railroad to buy his property 

 for a railroad freight yard, and now 

 the company owns land all about him. 

 Although he has been offered a large 

 sum for the land, he has steadily re- 

 fused to sell. 



Independence, Mo.— A. Blankenfield, 

 at Fiftieth street and Belinda avenue, 

 succeeded recently in obtaining from 

 the Kansas Natural Gas Co. the sum of 

 $1,000 in payment for greenhouse stock 

 that was frozen several years ago, 

 when the gas company was under con- 

 tract to supply the necessary fuel for 

 the heating of the houses. Mr. Blank- 

 enfield stated that in March, 1906, the 

 gas pressure was so low that his plants 

 froze and the cost to him was $4,000. 

 He sued the company, with the result 

 that there was a compromise made for 

 $1,000.
