WATERING 



(Never just "Sprinkle',' a lawn) 

 It is much better to soak a lawn well once a 

 week than to sprinkle lightly each day. Right 

 after cutting is an especially good time to sprinkle 

 as the water will reach the roots promptly and 

 evaporation will be reduced to a minimum. 



FOR • THE • GARDEN 



If you would have your gardens the envy of 

 your neighbors, feed them. Food is just as neces- 

 sary to plants as to animals. For economical rais- 

 ing of small vegetables and to have early returns, 

 the ground should be carefully prepared and 

 ARMOUR'S LAWN AND GARDEN GROWER 

 broadcast 4 to 6 pounds per 100 square feet and 

 work well into the top soil a few days before plant- 

 ing. For larger vegetables in rows, use 3 or 4 

 pounds to each 50 feet of row. For melons, 

 cucumbers, potatoes and other hill or wide row 

 planting use as above or work a scant handful into 

 each hill. It is best to wait several days after apply- 

 ing any fertilizer before planting seed, but if this is 

 not possible, be sure that the fertilizer does not come 

 in direct contact with the seed, otherwise germina- 

 tion may be retarded or even impaired. 



FOR -FLOWER -BEDS 



Prepare the bed by working up the soil and 

 broadcast from 4 to 6 pounds of ARMOUR'S 

 LAWN AND GARDEN GROWER over each 100 

 square feet and work it well into the top soil. 

 Wet down thoroughly and let stand a few days 

 before planting or setting out plants. Apply 1 or 2 

 pounds per 100 square feet during the summer. 

 Care should be taken that the fertilizer docs not 

 come in direct contact with stems or foliage. 



POTTED • PLANTS 



(For 8-Inch Pots) 

 One-half teaspoonful of ARMOUR'S LAWN 

 AND GARDEN GROWER, either mixed into the 

 top soil or the same amount stirred into water and 

 applied to the earth around the plant, will be found 

 effective. Keep well watered. Repeat in 30 days.
