LAWN AND GARDEN FERTILIZER 



Old and New Lawns Require Stimulating after the long drag through winter, or in the fall, after 

 the season of cutting and the heat of summer. For this purpose our high-grade Bone Meal is best adapted 

 to the wants of the lawn. It should be sown broadcast from the middle of February to the first of May for 

 spring, and from September to November in the fall. In preparing a new lawn use a liberal quantity 

 and rake it in thoroughly before sowing the seed. Ten pounds sow enough for 250 square feet. Ten 

 pounds, 50c. 100 pounds, $3.00. 167-pound Bag, $4.50. 



PULVERIZED SHEEP MANURE FOR LAWNS.— 5 pounds, 30c. 25 pounds, $1.00. 100-lb. bag, $3.00. 



MANN'S PERMANENT PASTURE MIXTURES 



Mann's Special Grass and Clover Mixtures are put up from grasses adapted to this section, in such pro- 

 portions as experience has shown are best suited to the different soils and purposes far which they are 

 recommended. Those for permanent pasture are composed of grasses which succeed each other in growth 

 and give a succession from the first of spring till late in the winter; while for those desired more for 

 cutting for hay we have combined grasses which ripen together. The different mixtures are prepared both 

 as to quantity and varieties best adapted to the soils and situations for which they are recommended. We 

 shall take pleasure in giving our customers the benefit of our knowledge and experience in regard to 

 mixtures to be sown, or we will be glad to advise them as to suitable grasses for their soils and pur- 

 poses at any time that special information may be desired.
