SPRING LAWN FERTILIZER 



Sheep manure is unequalled for top dressing the lawn in early 

 spring. Spread on while the ground is still frozen, the early 

 spring rains will wash in the fertilizing elements ready for the 

 young roots immediately growth starts. There is no danger 

 of carrying in weed seeds if sheep manure is used.
