LAWN SILICATE 



FOR KILLING WEEDS IN LAWNS 



Positively effective and absolutely guaranteed or money returned. 



I AWN SILICATE is unquestionably superior to any preparation ever applied as a top 

 dressing to lawns to destroy Plantain, Buckhorn, Dandelion and other low growing, 

 flat leaved weeds that a lawn mower will not kill. It is odorless and is easy to apply. 

 Does not stain or injure hands or clothing. It is positively the most economical, 

 quickest and most effective method of getting rid of weeds ever devised. €tA 5-lb. package 

 covers 200 to 500 square feet. It does not kill the grass, but the weeds are practically all killed 

 in 24 to 48 hours, and afterwards literally burned up and blown away. €tThis is not a "fairy 

 tale." We invite investigation. It is sold on "money back guarantee." 



RETAIL PRICES, S-lb. package, 25c; 10-lb. package, 50c; 100-lb. bag*, $5.00; barrel lots in bulk, 4^c per lb.

BULB DECISION AFFIRMED. 



Johannus Jacobus Van Meeruwen and 

 Johannes Tegelaar, bulb growers in 

 Holland under the firm name of Van 

 Meeruwen & Tegelaar, lost for a second 

 time in their suit against August S. 

 Swanson, the former Minneapolis flo- 

 rist, when the supreme court affirmed 

 an order, April 25, of Judge H. D. 

 Dickinson, of the Hennepin county dis- 

 trict court, in favor of the defendant. 

 The syllabus by Justice Oscar Hallam 

 states that the Hollanders solicited an 

 •order of bulbs and asserted that Swan- 

 son had ordered some but later were in» 

 formed by him that he had sold out his 

 Tausiness to another party. The third 

 jparty refused part of the bulbs when 

 they were shipped and the goods per- 

 ished in consequence. The Hollanders 

 then sued Swanson, but the court held 

 "that he had not agreed to buy any 

 bulbs. 



SWEET PEAS AT LOMPOC. 



Lompoc valley has become a Mecca 

 :for sweet pea growers this year, though 

 in 1912 only seven and one-half acres 

 ■were grown, aside from those grown by 

 W, Atlee Burpee & Co. 



In 1912 the Burpee firm had about 

 160 acres of sweet peas, all told. Five 

 acres of these were grandifloras, eight 

 «cres were the old winter-flowering 

 type and the remainder were principally 

 the most up-to-date standard Spencers, 

 with numerous novelties and Floradale 

 selections. In the present season, an 

 «rea of 200 acres is about all the Bur- 

 pees can claim as their share of the 

 total space planted with sweet peas.
