our Northern climate and the base for most good lawn

with Blue Grass when sowing, to act as a nurse crop.

that reason makes an excellent nurse crop to sow with

10 Ibs., $2.90; 25 lbs., $6.75; 100 Ibs., $24.00. 
Why Grasses Act Queer at Times 
Present day scientists have done much to solve the 
mysteries of various plant diseases. 
plants like humans eat to live. 
They Know that 
A human being that 
is starved is always subject to a multitude of dis- 
eases. A well nourished body is less subject to ill- 
ness. So it is with plant life—feed your lawn reg- 
ularly and you will see an astounding change for 
the better—a healthier lawn, less subject to disease.
