The increasing demand for a Lawn and Golf Dressing that is odorless, safely 

 applied and quick in effect, has compelled us to take up this important matter and 

 give it a close study, which we have done, and we are pleased to state that in the 

 production of Elliott's InvigfOrine we have produced a Lawn and Golf 

 Fertilizer that has no equal, being convenient, portable and clean, inducing a 

 rapid, rich green growth and a most velvety appearance. This preparation is in 

 every way more desirable than manure, avoiding the unsightly litter, disagreeable 

 odor and weed seeds which cause an endless annoyance. Should be sown broadcast 

 in spring or fall, or may be applied in mid-summer without in.jury to the grass.
