FOR RICH VELVETY LAWNS, FOR GARDENS, SHRUBS 
AND TREES ... USE WHAT THE GOLF CLUBS USE 
G OLF CLUBS throughout the land use more Milorganite than any other fertilizer. They have proved 
its superior merit in hundreds of comparative tests and by years of successful use. They prefer 
Milorganite because they must have exceptional turf at reasonable cost. Instead of constant re¬ 
seeding, they maintain sod by Milorganite feeding. 
Milorganite is a natural organic plant food, not a synthetic fertilizer. It is rich in organic nitrogen and the 
rare elements (plant vitamins essential to radiant plant health). Produced by scientific processes, it is free of 
weed seeds and harmful organisms of all kinds. Because of characteristics peculiartoMilorganite, it releases 
vital plant foods gradually throughout the growing season. As a result the generous quantities required to 
encourage thin grass to form dense sod can be supplied in a single application without danger of burning. 
For better lawns and gardens follow the simple practices of golf courses. You can have a rich, velvety 
lawn all summer long, your shrubs and trees will have luxuriant, dark green foliage, you can take pride 
in a garden filled with healthy flowering plants by using Milorganite. 
For Luxuriant Home Lawns 
On old lawns, Milorganite deepens color and converts sparse thin grass 
into thick dense sod. It produces quick coverage and insures better 
root development on new lawn seedings. 
Make two applications per year, one in spring and another in fall. Use 3 
to 4 lbs. per 100 sq. ft. on old lawns; 4 to 5 lbs. per 100sq.ft, on new lawns. 
For Healthy Flowers 
Scatter 2Vi to 3’/i lbs. per 100 sq. ft. and work into soil before plant¬ 
ing. This gives sturdy plants with dark green foliage. A second ap¬ 
plication, lVi to 2Vi lbs. per 100 sq. ft. worked into soil just before 
buds form insures better blooms. 
For Shrubs and Trees 
Massed shrubs, 3 to 5 lbs. per 100 sq. ft. Individual shrubs 1 to 4 
hondfuls worked into soil. 
Trees, 5 to 25 lbs. depending on sire. Place in holes spaced regularly in the 
area extending out from the trunk to where drip from outside foliage falls. 
To Eliminate Grubs, Earthworms and Weeds 
Earthworms leave unsightly worm costs, and grubs kill turf by devour¬ 
ing the grass roots. Both pests can be controlled effectively by treat¬ 
ment with lead arsenate and Milorganite. Simply mix Vi lb. lead 
arsenate with 2 to 3 lbs. Milorganite for each 100 sq. ft. of surface and 
apply uniformly. For complete control two treatments may be necessary.
