as it comes from the stockyard pens, only it is thoroughly dried and put through 
pulverizing machines. If you have never used pulverized manure you will be 
destroyed Wlth the resvilts. The weed seeds and bugs have all been 
Applied on the lawns in early spring or fall and a deep green growth will 
quickly follow, which will remain throughout the season under favorable conditions For 
applying at time of seeding down new lawns, nothing will gi ve better results. For'lawns 
apply on the surface broadcast ion pounds to the 1.000 square feet; for the garden two to 
three times this amount, depending upon the soil, two or three tors to acre.

Lawn Grass Seed Mixtures. 
We offer only the best grade of grass seed the market affords, and as you will note, 
offer it by weight. The old way of selling seed by bulk measure was at best very unsatis¬ 
factory to the purchaser. Modern recleaning machines now make possible the removing 
of much of the chaff and foreign matter, so that seed so treated is very much heavier for 
the same bulk, much less quantity being required. See instructions on each package. 
Quantities to use of the following mixtures : 1 lb. to 400 square feet; 100 lbs. for one acre. 
Edgewood Mixture for General Use.

lawn areas, pleasure grounds, golf links, etc., and for re-seeding the bare places a wi 
appear in established lawns, and for thickening thin lawns.
