Shady Spot 
Lawn Seed 
In many la^'ns there are trees which sliade 
parts and sometimes nearly all the lawn, leav- 
iiiK unsightly places at times. Ordinary lawn 
seed does not give satisfactory results under 
these conditions. For sowing in such places 
we recommend the use of Special Mixture for 
Shady Places. In pr(*paring such places for the 
reception of grass seeds we recommend the use 
of slaked lime tjuite lilxjrally (at least 50 lbs. 
to 1000 ft.). The lime sweetens the soil and 
aids wonderfully in the growth of the grass.
