Shady Place 
Lawn Seed 
Consists of shade-tolerant grass varieties, 
properly proportioned, together with sorts 
which do well in sunny situations. So the 
formula may be used for dense shade as well 
as for those portions of the lawn which reach 
out into full light. Use as a minimum allow¬ 
ance, 1 pound to 300 square feet, or 150 
pounds per acre. Usually it is easy to obtain 
turf under trees when our Shady Place 
Formula is used, but in very stubborn cases 
it may be necessary to renovate the lawn 
every season for several years, proceeding 
thus: Add lime every autumn at the rate of 
50 pounds per 1000 square feet; fork the 
land lightly in the spring, and apply Saw- 
conure, 50 pounds per 1000 square feet; rake 
smooth and sow Shady Place Lawn Seed, and 
rake again to cover the seed. Sow some 
further seeds to renovate the lawn at the end 
of summer. Lb. 75 cts., 2 V2 ^bs. $1.75, 5 lbs.

, • 
All I ..1 A. mixture of the wonderful Bent Grasses, 
i Orniula.. dwarfest sorts in cultivation, creeping 
in habit, and capable of producing a dense mat of the finest silky 
turf. To these is added a proportion of high-quality Red-Top. In 
rich soil this formula will produce a turf finer in texture than a lawn 
of the ordinary type, and the creeping character of these varieties 
causes them to almost “felt” together and produce the soft, luxurious 
feel of an expensive rug. The turf is a deep, rich green color. 
For best results the soil must be inherently good and should have 
rotted manure or Sawconure and Emerald Grass Fertilizer worked 
into it. Every spring and autumn, and several times during the grow¬ 
ing season. Emerald Grass Fertilizer at the rate of 25 pounds per 
1000 square feet should be applied to the turf.

pounds per acre. Lb. $1.10, 2V2 lbs. $2.65, 5 lbs. $5, 12lbs. $12,
