DRESSING FOR LAWNS AND FLOWER BEDS. 
This Dressing is composed of ingredients that contain all the food required to 
sustain a healthy plant-growth. It is a tine and dry powder, and can be easily 
sown from the hand without inconvenience. On lawns, it produces a very luxuriant 
growth of dark green grass; introduces no weeds and leaves no filth, as is the case 
with stable manure. Applied to flower beds it gives a beautiful growth to plants, and 
a great profusion of flowers. To apply it to lawns, sow broadcast, when the grass 
is dry, from five to ten pounds for every 1000 square feet, during the spring months, 
and once during the summer after the grass has been mowed. For flower beds, strew 
it among the flowers, but not upon them, the same quantity as used for lawns, and 
stir it well into the soil. 
10 Pounds, 50 ofcs. I 25 Pounds, $1.00. I 60 Pounds, $1.75, I 100 Pounds, $3.00.
