FERTILIZERS FOR LAWNS 
All lawns need feeding each year to keep them in a healthy 
condition. The safest guarantee against weeds in the lawn is 
thick, well-nourished healthy grass. 
There are many good fertilizers in the market for this pur- 
pose and at greatly varying prices, each, of course, having its 
merits. But for an economical and effective lawn fertilizer 
we recommend Premier Brand Pulverized Poultry Manure. 
An organic fertilizer, heat treated to free it from weed seeds, 
easy to apply, the plant food quickly available but lasting 
through the season. Apply in early spring at the rate of 
35 to 40 lbs. per 1,000 sq. ft or about 34-ton per acre. An 
additional light application in early fall is also beneficial. 
Price of Poultry Manure: 
50 lbs. $2.00, 100 lbs. $3.50. 
500 Ibs. $13.00, ton $50.00. 
Our Landscape Department is qualified and equipped to 
offer help and suggestions in making new lawns or recon- 
ditioning old ones.
