ESLANdLime 
R-k Land Lime is special y prepared for use on the soil, and is an unusually pure calcium lime, 
being made from a lime-stone which analyzes from 93 to 97 per cent, calcium carbonate (Ca C 0 3 ), 
with less than 2 per cent, magnesion carbonate (Mg C 0 3 ). It is a combination of calcium hydrate 
and calcium carbonate, made in accordance with the recommendations of the various Agricultural 
Experiment Stations. It is shipped in the form of a fine white powder in ioo-pound cloth bags. This form is most 
convenient, as it is ready for immediate distribution on receipt or will keep indefinitely when stored in a dry place; size and shape 
of package admit easy handling*; loss of time and labor necessary to slake and sift ordinary lump lime is obviated, and the fine¬ 
ness removes all danger of breaking machinery of a spreader. 100-lb. bags $i.co, per ton $12.00. Price on application for car lots.

Breck’s Lawn and Garden Dressing 
I he verdict of all who have used Breck’s Lawn and Garden Dressing is that it is 
the most complete and satisfactory Lawn Dressing ever placed upon the market. It 
is manufactured expressly for us and we vouch for its containing all the constituents 
required to produce a luxuriant growth. We believe beyond a question that ours is 
the only absolutely odorless Lawn Dressing. It is also so clean that the most fas¬ 
tidious person can apply it without offending the organs of sight and smell. It being 
quick in action, the effect can be seen immediately after the first rain or the spiinkling 
of the hose, and going directly to the roots of the grass, stimulates them to greater 
activity, thereby thickening the sward and producing a firmer growth, which remains 
rich, green and velvety throughout the season. Its superiority over stable manure can 
scarcely be estimated, as the latter, in addition to disfiguring the lawn by its unsightly 
appearance, also gives out an unpleasant odor, and always contains weeds and other 
undesirable seeds. Great care should be taken to distribute the dressing evenly, and 
in no greater quantities than recommended on the tag which accompanies each bag, as 
a too liberal application will injure the sward. It can be applied at any time during 
the year, from April to November, as often as the grass seems to need nourishment. 
Never apply the dressing while the grass is wet 
with dew or rain. Any time the grass is perfectly 
dry will answer, but the best time to apply it is 
just before a shower. It is equally as suitable for 
flower beds and all vegetable crops as for the lawn.
