Make Your Lawn Now 
Don’t Wait Till Next Spring 
Do It The Alphano Way 
T he ALPH.ANO way is the quick, sure 
way. The way that requires the least bother 
and work; and insures prompt and lasting results. 
It’s the way that solves weed troubles. 
It’s the way that overcomes the handicap of 
soils, no matter whether it’s heavy, packy clay; 
or light, barren sand. 
It’s the way that prepares the 
soil so that it withstands in a 
surprising way, scorching sun 
and drying winds. 
It’s the way that produces that thick, springy 
sod, as no other way will do in the same time; 
or for anything like the same expenditure. 
Full details and explicit directions for the 
Alphano way of making new lawns, or repairing 
old ones; are told and amply illustrated, in our 
Lawn Book. It tells fully of 
their care and fare. Send for it. 
Alphano supplies every fertiliz- 
ing need for your lawn, trees, 
flowers, vegetables and shrubs.
