In a great measure the reputation of a seed house depends upon the quality 
of the grass seed mixtures offered. Because it is an item that is almost 
universally purchased by anyone who has any ground whatever, and because 
there has been and is such a wide variance in the quality of the lawn mixtures 
offered, it becomes increasingly important to acquaint the purchaser of grass 
seed with the history behind a quality mixture. 
A grass seed mixture may be offered under any brand name. However, 
regardless of the name, the basis of all good grass seed mixtures must neces- 
sarily be the same. The important feature of a good mixture 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 com- 
pounding of a high class grass seed mixture. We have prided ourselves upon 
the super-quality of our grass seed mixtures which have established a reputa- 
tion in the past 25 years.

Wild White Clover A comparatively recent introduction of this 
strain of Clover. It is very vigorous 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 vig- 
orous than any weed, and because of its all Ground excellence 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. One pound 
is sufficient for 800 square feet. Price: 1 Ib., $3.00; 5 Ibs., $14.00.

Destroy Japanese Beetles In Your Area For All Time 
“JAPIDEMIC” 
MILKY DISEASE SPORE POWDER 
U. S. Department of Agriculture Formula 
Made Under Government License and Supervision 
U. S. Department of Agriculture has finally found the specific control of 
Japanese Beetles, the Milky Spore Disease which remains ever present and 
active for all time on the ground. Infact, its effectiveness spreads by means 
of bird droppings, wind, etc. 
Experiments proved that in less than two years the beetle population of 
the most highly infested areas has dropped almost 60% and in three years 
have become almost non-existent. The parasitic disease attacks the larvae 
adhe ground and need only come in contact with the larvae to cause 
infection. 
Non-Poisonous, Perfectly Safe to Use 
Full instructions for many methods of application appear on each package. 
It is easiest to apply by mixing proper amounts with fertilizer and distributing 
it at the same time. The material never spoils. It can be kept for years and, 
remember, once your ground is inoculated, it remains inoculated forever. 
For gucranteed beetle protection, use it yourself, induce your neighbors 
to use it, and influence your local civic organization to use it. 
t Price: $5.15 per Ib., postpaid anywhere in U.S.A. 
No discount for quantity. One pound sufficient for 4000 square feet.
