Warvsipe Garpens Exctusive Plant Foop 
Contains no fillers or useless bulk. One of the finest organic plant 
foods obtainable. FOR BULBS, LAWNS, FLOWER GARDENS AND 
ROSES. Used exclusively at Wayside Gardens in the production of 
millions of young plants. 
An English gardener in charge of one of that country’s 
finest estates, when visiting at Wayside, once said to us 
about their lawns: ‘‘We.do not treat our lawns like a hay- 
field, but like a permanent garden.’’ When questioned 
more closely, he told us about his objection to chemical 
fertilizers for lawns or permanent gardens, claiming that 
it was not the quantity of grass that was cut off a lawn 
each week, but what really matters is the density and 
health of the grass plants which make a carpet-like turf. 
‘“'Chemical fertilizers are fine for farmers who want to 
grow hay,” he said, “but the man who wants a real lawn 
better use a properly balanced organic plant food.”’ 
Another bit of information was his advice on fall fer- 
tilization. Apply organic plant food in October or No- 
vember, he advises. During the winter and early spring 
all nutriments sink deeply into the soil for the grass or 
plant roots to go after. That’s also where the moisture 
is. Avoid watering so much in summer, he said. If you 
use chemical fertilizers, watering must be done to pre- 
vent burning. 
Because organic plant food disintegrates slowly, it is 
excellent to use in bulb plantings as well as in Rose beds, 
or Hardy Plant borders. 
HOW WAYSIDE PLANT FOOD IS MADE 
Wayside Gerdens Organic Plant Feed is made according 
to an old and tried English formula. We know it’s tip-top 
because we use it exclusively on the millions of young 
plants we grow each year. It costs more than most chem- 
ical fertilizers because it is more expensive to make. It 
is made from bone meal, dried blood, ground fish and 
muriate of potash. We don’t put in any fillers to help 
make cheap, worthless bulk. You pay for and get noth- 
ing but plant food. You don’t need so much to gét the 
lasting results you want. We also know we can’t charge 
more than it is worth; competition does not permit. 
HOW TO USE WAYSIDE PLANT FOOD 
Wayside Gardens Plant Food is easy to use. If your 
garden is an established one, apply twice a year, March 
Ist and October Ist. Use 15 to 25 pounds for top dress- 
ing a space 500 square feet for Hardy Plants, Rock 
Plants, Roses, Annuals, and other flowering plants, shrubs, 
and bulbs. 
In making a new garden, double the amount and mix 
with the soil. Planting may be done at once. No burning 
is possible. For old lawns, use 10 to 25 pounds for top 
dressing 500 square feet. In making new lawns, use 
double the amount and mix with the soil. Seeding and 
bulb planting may be done at once. No burning effect 
will result. 
For potted plants, a 3-inch pot full of the food, mixed 
with a bushel of soil, will give you splendid results.

Do not be careless about drainage. Excessive 
moisture around bulbs in winter is usuaily fatal. 
Protect all bulbs against freezing, especially newly 
planted bulbs require careful protection from co!d.
