“My lawn never looked 
so line” 
writes a user of Calcium-Humus from the far south. “The 
spots that were burnt brown this time last year are now a 
perfect green—which stands out brightly against all surround¬ 
ing lawns.’’ 
Protect your lawn now against summer sun. Unlike manure 
and the raw commercial fertilizers, 
CALCIUM-HUMUS 
can be used advantageously in summer weather. Gives 
quicker results because nature had perfectly blended the con¬ 
stituent elements over a long period of years. 
Our Free Booklet H tells how to get best lawn results with 
least work and worry. Includes also full data on our offer of 
prizes for new uses of CALCIUM-HUMUS.

I T is a wonder that no one thought of such 00 V„\ 
a lawn mower as this before. ^ J ( 
W/ Mr. R. E- Olds, the famous automobile '11 
W designer, invented and perfected the Ideal Power Lawn Mower, and it 1 
f will do for you what it is doing for many others. 
Its 35-inch cut makes quick work of lawn-mowing. It is handled easily. 
The operator has only to guide it. It trims neatly and cleanly around 
flower beds, walks, and under shrubbery. It takes sharp grades, hillsides 
and terraces with ease. It rolls the turf as well as cutting the grass, leaving 
a perfect, velvety lawn. 
The Ideal Power Lawn Mower is just the-thing for parks, boule¬ 
vards, golf courses and country places. It is fast displacing the 
lawn—spoiling, horse-drawn mowers and heavy, clumsy power a jk jjjNfc 
mowers costing $1,200 and up. r, 
Write at once for our beautiful booklet, “Lawns of Velvet,” 
and learn more about this efficient, low-priced mower.
