F ertilizers 
Fertilisers for the Lawn, We must 
have humus before we can have plant 
food. Organic fertilizers, such as 
Milorganite, Bone Meal, Blood Meal, 
etc., can supply this humus, but inor¬ 
ganic fertilizers, such as most com¬ 
mercial preparations, should not be 
used without first applying Manure, 
Peat Moss, or other forms of humus.

Phosphoric Acid, 1.50 per cent; Potash, 
1.50 per cent. This is a splendid, com¬ 
plete fertilizer. Dried, pulverized and

cover 240 square feet one inch deep. 
Per bale, $3.50. 
Milorganite. The ideal turf fertilizer. 
Milorganite is a unique plant food for 
grass. It is free from weed seeds, and 
more effective than natural manures 
without producing objectionable odors 
and unsightly surfaces. Being supplied 
with all the growth producing plant 
food elements, it differs from ordinary 
fertilizers by producing results over 
longer periods. Applied in the spring, 
Milorganite maintains rich velvety 
grass throughout the summer. A sec¬ 
ond application in early fall is often 
advisable t<*> produce vigorous turf 
capable of withstanding adverse win¬ 
ter 'weather, and enables the grass to 
start off earlier in the spring. You 
can obtain equally good turf by using 
30 to 40 pounds Milorganite per 1000 
square feet of area, at each applica¬ 
tion. In renovating old lawns where 
the grass is unusually thin, the use of 
some grass seed is advisable. It should 
be sowed after applying the Milorgan¬ 
ite and raked lightly to barely cover 
the seed. 100-lb. bag, $3.25.
