This is a KING IRON 

 FRAME GREENHOUSE 



as practical as it is inexpensive. 

 Built for people who want to grow 

 flowers and vegetables in winter and 

 yet do not care to invest in one of 

 our large houses. 



This little house is built along the 



same lines as the KING houses that 



are so popular with commercial growers. Every bit of space can be utilized. 



The two compartments can be run at different temperatures, and the combination 



service and boiler house is a triumph in Greenhouse arrangement. 



We recommend this house as practical, profitable, economical and 

 a source of great pleasure to every lover of growing things. 



King Channel Bar Greenhouses 



Have unique features which should be studied by every prospective builder of a 

 greenhouse. They are not only the most productive, but they have a grace and 

 style which makes them an ornament anywhere! 



Write for prices on this little house and ask us to send 

 you bulletins No. 43 on the King Channel Bar House.

don't grow by accident. They are the 

 result of care — in the preparation of the soil 

 and the selection of the seed. You can't 

 plant ordinary grass seed and expect a 



m perfect turf. The seed must be a mix- 

 ture of grasses which will give permanent 

 growth and produce a thick, close turf. 

 If to this carefully tested mixture of high 

 quality seed is added plant food, which 

 goes into the ground with the seed, ready 

 to stimulate its growth, a lawn of exception- 

 ally sturdy growth and velvety texture 



■ is the result.

Fertilseed is the result of exhaustive tests with 

 various natural and cultivated grasses, the mixture which 

 was found to produce the finest and most vigorous 

 lawn under all conditions. It is treated to insure 

 quick germination and continued growth; and so cer- 

 tain are results that The Kalaka Co., makes the fol- 

 lowing unqualified guarantee: 



1 SOO Sq. Feet of Lawn Guaranteed for $2 



Every $2 package of Fertilseed is absolutely and un- 

 qualifiedly guaranteed to produce 1,500 square feet of 

 luxuriant lawn. Never before has lawn seed been so 

 guaranteed, because with ordinary seed it would be im- 

 possible to produce such a lawn. Fertilseed is the per- 



THE KALAKA COMPANY 



feet blending of superior seed, highly and richly fertili- 

 zed. It cannot fail to produce the results you want. 



If you have had difficulty in making grass grow on 

 your lawn, you should read "Vigorous and Velvety 

 Lawns," by Edwin A. Kanst, landscape gardener. We 

 will send it to you WITHOUT CHARGE.

The most successful 

 market gardener today 



is the farmer who invariably runs his garden 

 on the "intensive-plan." 



No farmer can be said to raise cabbage on 

 the intensive-plan unless he uses a real "in- 

 tensive-fertilizer." And a real "intensive- 

 fertilizer" is merely a fertilizer that is ALL 

 FERTILIZER — without filler — without 

 30% to 40% waste. 



Nitrate 

 of Soda 



is Nitrate — all Nitrate. It's fertilizer that's 

 all fertilizer. Because it's 100% active and 

 immediately available. 



Our "cousin European farmers" get phenomenal re- 

 sults by buying material "straight" and mixing them 

 into balanced fertilizers. You can do the same. 

 And save money. 



May we send you "Market Gardening with Ni- 

 trate?" It's an "eye-opener" to every market gardener.
