all Sown Lawns axe Best 
Fall sowing of grass seed insures an established lawn for next sea- 
son. These are the lawns that usually remain green through the hot 
and dry summer due to the fact that their root system has had a 
chance to develop through the cool days of autumn and early spring. 
Schling’s Maxima Grass Seed Mixtures 
A grass seed mixture may be offered under any brand name. How- 
ever, regardless of the name, the basis of all good grass seed mixtures 
must necessarily be the same. The important feature of a good mix- 
ture is that it contains heavy, plump seeds from selected grass stocks 
that have been grown’ for the distinct purpose of seed production. 
Careful blending plays its part in the compounding of a high class 
grass seed mixture. We have prided ourselves upon the super-quality 
of our grass seed mixtures which have established a reputation in 
the past 25 years. 
Schling’s Maxima Special Lawn Mixture. This mixture is especially 
designed for all ordinary lawn purposes. Weighing 32 pounds per 
bushel, its quality is sufficiently high to challenge the foremost 
brand mixtures offered by any seed house. Lb., 90c; 2 Ibs., $1.75; 
5 lbs., $4.00; 10 Ibs., $7.50; 25 Ibs., $18.00; 100 lIbs., $70.00. 
Schling’s Maxima Shady Nook Mixture. Years of successful usage 
have proved to us that our formula for this mixture is correct. This 
mixture will produce a rich, velvety greensward even in fairly dense 
Snadeselb., 51.007 2elbs., $1.90; 5 lbs), $4.50; 10 Ibs., $8.50; 
25 Ibs., $19.50; 100 Ibs., $80.00. 
Wild White Clover 
A comparatively recent introduction of this strain of Clover. It is very vig- 
orous and of a thick, dwarf growth. An important feature is its lack of 
flowers which is a great advantage in maintaining a green lawn. Wild White 
Clover is more vigorous than any weed, and because of its all around excel- 
lence we recommend its use in the finest lawns whereas in the past we have 
never recommended the use of ordinary Dutch White Clover except for specific 
purposes. 1 Ib. is sufficient for 800 sq. ft. 1 Ib., $3.00; 5 Ibs., $14.00. 

Schling’s Bulb Fiber 
Especially prepared bulb fiber that has been improved by the addition of 
various essential minerals for the successful growing of bulbous flowers. 
This material enables one to plant bulbs in decorative bowls without drain- 
age, thereby enhancing the beauty of the entire arrangement. It is treated 
to prevent stagnation and putrefaction and never gives off an offensive 
odor. Such bulbs as Amaryllis, Roman Hyacinths, Paper-White Narcissi, 
Freesias, Calla Lilies, in fact, all bulbs that can be grown in the home thrive 
ecoeding well in this preparation. 25c per quart; 75c for 4 quarts; $1.35 
per peck.
