SELECT VEGETABLE FIELD AND FLOWER SEEDS

care should be exercised as for vegetables, flowers or any other garden crop. The ground should 
be thoroughly plowed or dug to a depth of at least a foot, and enriched, if necessary, with a liberal 
application of Clark’s Velvet Lawn Fertilizer. The best time for sowing is in the spring, from March 
to June, or in the autumn, from August to the middle of October. The seed should be evenly scattered 
over the surface at the rate of four or five bushels per acre ; the whole should then be lightly raked 
in and well rolled, which greatly aids in the germination of the seed. 
During the summer the grass should be cut every week or ten days. In the fall or early spring, 
fertilizer should be applied as a top-dressing. 
For lawns requiring improvement, it is only necessary to sow our seed at the rate of a bushel 
per acre. 
A Word to the Wise. Do not use stable manure on your lawn ; it is unsightly and nearly always 
carries the seeds of objectionable weeds. Use Clark’s Velvet Lawn Fertilizer, which is always 
clean, pure and odorless.
