Wayside Gardens Shady Place Lawn Mixture 
The Ideal Mixture for Shaded Areas 
On nearly all lawns there are unsightly bare spots under the 
shade of trees, which have baffled all efforts to get into grass, but 
with this mixture there need be no further difficulty. It is a com¬ 
bination of fine, dwarf growing, evergreen varieties, which in their 
wild or natural state are to be found growing in the woods or other 
sheltered and shaded spots. Ground that has been densely shaded 
by trees is frequently "sour," and if the drainage is defective it is 
apt to be covered with moss and coarse grasses. In such cases an 
application of slaked lime, at the rate of one hundred pounds to 
each thousand square feet, or two tons to the acre, is an excellent 
corrective and sweetener, but the moss should be first raked off. 
Sow seed at the rate of 1 pound for 200 square feet, 5 pounds for 
I 000 square feet. 
(Remember the importance of keeping a shaded lawn fed reg¬ 
ularly) . Use Wayside Gardens Plant Food.

Special "Bent Formula” 
It Makes Every Lawn 
Like a Putting Green 
A combination of the finest recleaned grasses, using as a basis 
for this mixture the imported and domestic Bent grasses which are 
so largely used in the finer putting greens of today. 
A lawn seeded with this mixture and properly cared for will in 
truth make every lawn a putting green. On a lawn of this type, 
clock golf and other lawn games may be enjoyably played. 
It is imperative in maintaining a lawn of this type, that the 
grasses should be kept cut short and well rolled all through the 
season. Starvation of the grass plants is the most frequent cause 
of unsatisfactory lawns, and grass needs constant small applica¬ 
tions of fertilizer and plenty of water to maintain a perfect lawn. 
We advise seeding at the rate of one pound to cover a space 
of 1 0 x 20 or 200 square feet. 
Price, 1 lb., 95c; 5 lbs., $4.50. 
Express paid: 10 lbs., $8.50; 25 lbs., $20.00; 100 lbs., $70.00. 
Athletic Field Mixture 
This mixture contains varieties that will produce a sturdy, wear- 
resisting turf. The same formula has been used with outstanding 
success on many of the best athletic fields in the country. It con¬ 
tains no noxious weeds and is practically free of chaff and inert 
matter content. 
Express prepaid: 25 lbs., $10.00; 100 lbs., $38.00. 
Florida Humus 
The use of Florida Humus, applied liberally to the surface of 
the lawn, will help maintain a fine, even sward. An application of 
one-half inch as a top-dressing once a year is sufficient. Of all 
the brands of humus on the market today, we find Florida Humus 
the most desirable, for it is unusually rich in organic nitrogen, more 
than 2 per cent, and absorbs 5.81 times its own weight of water 
in five hours. It is a natural home for the soil bacteria upon which 
lawn-making and garden-making depend so much.
