H^ilM PROVED VELVETY 
LAWN GRASS MIXTURE 
THIS PERFECTLY BLENDED LAWN GRASS MIXTURE WILL 
GIVE YOU A LAWN YOU CAN MOW IN SIX WEEKS FROM 
PLANTING. VELVETY LAWN Grass Mixture is a combination 
of grasses and clover mixed in such proportions as to give 
you a quick, sturdy and beautiful lawn. The faster growing 
grasses contained in Velvety Mixture serve as nurse crops for 
the slower growing varieties which are eventually the dominat¬ 
ing grasses of the mixture. We placed Velvety Mixture on the 
market many years ago and from time to time have improved 
the blend by reducing some of the proportions and increasing 
the quantities of better grasses contained in the mixture until 
now in our IMPORVED VELVETY MIXTURE we have a grass 
that pleases wherever it is planted. Rate of seeding is 1 lb. to 
250 sq. ft. Price, lb. 75c (by mail 85c).

A Few Words About Modern Plant Foods' * 
# A comparison of the flower seed offered today with that offered ten or fifteen years ago would 
bring out the fact that flower breeders have given us greatly improved varieties and colors for 
our gardens. These flowers are the result of careful, scientific work. 
Isn't it folly to expect these thoroughbred flowers to develop regal splendor on a food ration 
that is not complete.one that does not supply the eleven elements scientists have proved 
all plants require from the soil? 
SOME "DO'S" . . . Feed everything you grow with Vigoro. Keep the Vigoro off the 
stalks and stems of plants. Wash off promptly any that gets on them. 
For lawns, spread the Vigoro early before the grass starts to grow . . . just as the frost is 
coming out of the ground. Read the quick, easy-to-understand directions before using. 
SOME "DONT'S" . . . Don't use Vigoro as you use old-fashioned fertilizers. You need 
far less. 
Don't think that because a little is good a whole lot is better. 
Don't take someone's word for it; read the directions. 
Vigoro is the complete scientific plant food. Used by millons of gardeners annually, 
made by Swift & Company.
