To Thicken Your Lawn Sod 
Top Dress it Now With Alphano 
T HE first vigor of Spring growth is 
now over. The early fertilizer 
you may have used has mostly 
spent its force; or been carried down by 
the rains, below the roots’ reach. 
The hot suns of July will soon 
be here to suck the moisture out of 
the soil. 
The drying winds of August will 
follow. 
So now is the time to encourage for- 
tifying root growth by using Alphano 
freely as a top dressing, raking it thor- 
oughly into the soil. 
It will promptly stimulate the 
growth of the fine fibrous roots that 
make the thick sod mass found in per- 
fect lawns. 
It will absorb five times its weight in 
moisture and hold it for the roots. 
It will supply food the entire Summer 
through. 
It is odorless, making it possible to 
use it anytime, anywhere. 
It is finely pulverized, making its 
use easy. 
If you would know exactly what Al- 
phano is; and why it is the ideal sod 
maker -send for the Alphano Convince- 
ment Book. 
Alphano was placed on the market 
ten years ago.
