The Wizard Lawn Producer 
Kalaka is a mixture of choicest selected 
grass seed and a powerful concentrate of dried 
animal manure from which all chaff, weed 
seeds and impurities are eliminated. Seed 
and fertilizer are mixed in scientific propor- 
tions, the mixture goes into the ground to- 
gether, the seed germinates with moisture 
and the grass comes up anywhere. Needs 
only soil — moisture. 
Ideal for public and pri- 
vate grounds where a 
thickly knit turf and lux- 
uriant green grass Is 
demanded 
Hundreds of users have 
proved the efficiency of this 
magic grass grower and it is 
used successfully in largest 
public grounds. It is sown like 
any seed but goes further; is 
more easily cared for, hence, saves time and 
money.

Comas Siberica Alba — Red T^wigged Dog^vood, A most beautiful Shrub 
as well as a hedge plant ; for 
winter effect its stems and 
branches are a bright crim- 
son. Unlike many of the 
other Dogwoods, it is suited 
for hedge work, as many of 
them will not stand pruning. 
This variety originated in 
Siberia and is a special strain, 
there being a number of 
others much like it, but not 
so hardy or brightly colored. 
Its hardiness and winter col- 
oring makes it very attractive 
for City Hedging; it is also 
valuable fur clumping in 
shrubs.
