NICHOLSON'S EVERGREEN LAWN DRESSING 
"The Wonder Fertilizer" Prevents Sun-Burned Lawns , 
A beautiful lawn is one of the most attractive parts of your home. By using Nicholson’s Evergree’h Lawn 
Dressing, you can easily have a beautiful velvety green lawn all summer, until frost. 
Nicholson’s Evergreen Lawn Dressing is especially formulated for lawns and golf greens. It contains a 
high percentage of nitrogen that promotes a quick and heavy, rich green growth ; also contains other plant 
food elements that give a substantial root growth or foundation. 
If your lawn is built with a heavy root system which Nicholson’s Evergreen Lawn Dressing will do, it 
makes it almost impossible for weeds to grow or infest your lawn. Ten pounds of Nicholson’s Evergreen 
Lawn Dressing contains more actual fertilizer value than 200 pounds of ordinary stable manure, and it has 
no noxious weed seed in it—no bad odors; it is easy to apply and resembles sand in looks. 
WHEN TO APPLY NICHOLSON’S EVERGREEN 
The first application of Evergreen should be made in spring (April or May), then again any month during 
the summer; just apply and sprinkle down thoroughly. You will see a difference in a few days. 
DIRECTIONS FOR USING 
Proper quantities to use: 100 lbs. to space 50x100 ft.; 50 lbs. to space 50x50 ft. ; 25 lbs. to space 40x30 ft. 
On poor lawns, double quantities can be used with good results. The grass should be dry before applying 
the fertilizer, otherwise, if it is wet from rain or dew, the fertilizer will adhere to it and cause it to burn. 
Nicholson’s Evergreen Lawn Dressing is easy to apply by hand (it will not damage the skin), but care should be taken to apply it evenly. 
Do not try to cover too large an area at one time or you will have either started the application too heavily or too lightly. To insure even 
spreading we recommend that spaces about 10x10 feet or 4x25 feet be marked off by wooden stakes or stones, thus finishing your area as per 
measurements and amounts to use as stated above. 
After applying Nicholson’s Evergreen Dressing, a thorough sprinkling should be given to wash the tiny particles from blades of grass, down 
into the soil where they can do their work. 25 lbs., $1.50; 50 lbs., $2.25; 100 lbs., $4.00, f. o. b. Dallas. Ask for prices in ton lots.

PEAT MOSS 
Peat Moss improves the physical structure of the soil. It absorbs ten 
times its weight in water, or more, conserving it, releasing it for the 
plants in periods of drouth. 
Peat Moss makes soils favorable to beneficial soil bacteria, necessary 
to good vegetative growth. Plants consume humus and so do the bac¬ 
teria in their operation of transforming air nitrogen into valuable 
plant food. 
Seed sown in soil mixed with Peat Moss germinates more quickly 
than seeds in soil alone. Wet the moss several hours before forking into 
the flower beds for best results. 
After planting small flower seeds, it is a good idea to sprinkle dry 
pulverized Peat Moss over the soil surface, then soak gently but thor¬ 
oughly, no raking required. This aids seed sprouting extensively. 
Peat Moss is available to use in hotbeds and cold frames . also to 
work in the soil of your flower beds, vegetable garden, around trees, 
shrubs and hedges. It helps to hold the moisture and keep the soil 
from packing. It is also just the thing to use to top dress beds of 
bulbs after they have been planted. By giving rose beds a top dressing 
of about two inches of Peat Moss during the summer, it keeps the 
beds from drying out. 
Peat Moss is clean, has no disagreeable odor and is free from weed 
seeds. Large bales usually contain about 18 bushels. Price, 3 qt. carton, 
20c; I^-peck carton, 50c, postpaid. Not prepaid, 1-bu. carton, 75c; 
3-bu. carton, $1.50; 14 bale, $2.25; large bale, $4.25. 
Ask for Descriptive Circular and prices in larger quantities. 
AUXILIN 
“Plant Harmone” 
Auxilin, a root stimulating substance, replaces hope with certainty. 
Auxilin induces roots to grow on cuttings—to grow rapidly. No special 
skill, no special apparatus is needed to get these results. To treat cut¬ 
tings with Auxilin is as simple as immersing a finger in a glass of 
water. Indeed, the technique is not much more than that. The amateur 
grower can obtain better results with Auxilin treatment of cuttings 
than the most skilled commercial grower can attain without it. Commer¬ 
cial growers can increase profits and decrease losses by treating all cut¬ 
tings with Auxilin. Price: 1/6 oz. bottle, enough for 600 cuttings, 55c; 
14 oz. bottle, $1.05, postpaid.
