ClarK’s Velvet Lawn Fertilizer. This lawn dressing was introduced by us several years 
ago, and sales since that time have increased largely each year. Stable dressing is always unsightly and 
otherwise objectionable, while often containing weed seeds. The Velvet Lawn Fertilizer is perfectly 
clean, odorless, cheap, and in no way objectionable, while it supplies to the soil the requisite food for a 
luxuriant and uniform growth of grass. It may be applied at any time during the year without injury to 
young grass, and a remarkable improvement will soon be noticed. The quantity required varies some¬ 
what, according to the condition of the lawn, but in most cases a 10-lb. bag will be found sufficient to 
cover 300 square feet of space. 5-lb. packages 25 cts., 10 lbs. 50 cts., 25 lbs. $1, 50 lbs. $1.50.
