| MUSHROOM SPAWN 
Contrary to a rather common belief there is nothing mys- 
terious in the cultivation of the Mushroom and they may be 
easily grown by following directions given in our pamphlet 
on “How to Grow Mushrooms,’ which we furnish free with 
all orders for Spawn. Sample copies by mail, 5c. 1 brick to 
every square yard. : 
PURE CULTURE MUSHROOM SPAWN. 
y Prepared in America from selected Mushrooms grown un- 
3 | der cultivation. The Spawn is perfectly fresh and its growth 
b is therefore quicker and more vigorous than that of imported 
a Spawn. As Pure Culture Spawn is inoculated from pure spore 
cultures of selected varieties it is true to type, free from for- 
q eign moulds and parasitic diseases and of maximum strength 
r and prolificness.
