How Any One Can 

 Grow Mushrooms 



Delightful Occupation — Delicious Delicacy for the Home 

 Table and a Good Income if you Wish. 



I have been growing mushrooms for over I have shown thousands of men and 



twelve years. I probably know more about 

 the subject of mushroom culture than anyone 

 else in America. From a start with a few 

 dollars' capital I built up the largest mush- 

 room farm in America, with acres of bed 

 space in cultivation. By actual experience 

 I have learned just how mushrooms can be 

 grown and what 's even more important, 

 how they can not be grown. 



Growing mushrooms is really no more 

 difficult than growing radishes. 



It 's just a matter of knowing how. 



Every failure in the mushroom business 

 can be traced to poor spawn and unreliable 

 information.

women how to grow mushrooms successfully. 

 Most all of them are now in the business 

 growing for profit and making a good income 

 without interfering with their regular occupation 

 with this wonderful, easy, pleasant pastime. I 

 hope soon that a mushroom bed will be as common 

 as vegetable gardens. 



I have written a little book which gives truthful, 

 reliable, experienced information about mushroom 

 culture, where mushrooms can be grown, how to 

 have a mushroom bed in your cellar, etc. It also 

 tells about spawn and how to secure really reliable 

 spawn. I shall gladly send you this book FREE. 



If you have never tried mushroom growing, or 

 if you have tried and failed because of the causes 

 of which I have spoken, write for my free book 

 in which I will show you beyond the shadow 

 of a doubt that you can have a fine mushroom 

 bed. Address

You Qrind It 



Where You 



Find It 



Don't Waste Your Strength and Your Time Doing a Poor Job 

 With a Dull Mower. 



Turn your machine upside down and attach the Unique Grinder to 

 the wooden roller with the hook and thumb nut. Then it is in position 

 to grind every revolving blade to a keen edge in a jiffy, whether it be a 

 right or left hand blade mower. To grind the stationary blade, the steel 

 gauge is placed on the top of the blade, thereby holding the stone at 

 the proper height. 



The "Unique" Lawn Mower Grinder 



is so simple that anyone can use it with ease and do a perfect job in 10 minutes 

 or less. Not a single adjustment of the mower is disturbed in using the grinder. 

 It saves the expense of frequent custom grinding, saves the time of waiting for 

 the work to be done, makes the grass cutting easy work that's quickly done 

 and properly done. 



For mowers of any size up to 22 inches wide.
