TIPS ON LAWN CARE 
Use fertilizer or plant 
food twice a year-—in Feb- 
ruary or March and again 
in August. 
Don’t cut lawn too short. 
2 inches high is best. 
Don’t ‘sprinkle’ your 
lawn—soak it. This keeps 
the roots growing down. 
Deep roots stand more 
‘drouth, more foot traffic. 
For a new lawn, plow or 
spade at least 6” deep, 
break up clods, work in 
humus and use fertilizer. 
Sow 1 Ib. seed for every 
200 sq. ft. of new lawn, 
half as much for repairing 
old lawn. Roll bed firm, 
and soak with water. 
See Page 50 for lawn ferti- 
lizers and mulching.

Remarkable NEW Moraine Locust 
This is a brand 
new, vigorous, fast- 
growing, seedless 
tree having much 
the same shape as 
the American Elm, 
but not susceptible 
to disease. It’s so 
much better in so 
many ways we'll just 
list them for you: 
1. Thornless. No 
dangerous, ugly 
thorns like Honey or 
Black Locust. 
2. Vase shaped 
and wide-spreading 
when older, like 
American Elm. 
Branches arch up 
and out, easily reach 
over top of two-story 
house without ob- 
structing view or air 
circulation. 
3. Tolerant of smoke and soot. 
Thrives in city. 
4. Hardy as common Honey 
Locust. Should grow well from 
Texas to Ontario. 
5. A very clean tree. No seed 
pods and the falling leaves are so 
fine they practically disappear 
between the blades of grass. 
6. Hard wooded. No wind or 
snow damage. Bends under 
heavy strain, but rarely breaks 
or splits. 
7. Thanks to its vase shape 
and fine foliage, enough light 
comes through for good lawn 
growth, but shady enough to be 
Henry Field's Amazing 
HYBRID ELM 
Grows 8 fo 14 ft. per Year! 
Has all the good points of both 
the American Elm and the Chi- 
nese Elm—none of the bad. Ap- 
parently immune to Dutch Elm 
disease. The perfect cross for a 
shade tree; combines the perma- 
nence and beauty of the Amer- 
ican Elm with the rapid growth 
of the Chinese Elm. If you want 
shade in a hurry, you’ll get it 
with this Hybrid Elm. 
Its leaves are very large and 
dark green. The bark is smooth 
and a medium grey color. The 
branches are identical to the 
American Elm —straight and 
strong. It does not break in a 
high wind. 
And it is 100% hardy. Hot weather 
. . . cold weather—it’s all the same to 
this new hybrid. And hot or dry, growth 
doesn’t stop. 
PLEASE NOTE: Your 
Hybrid Elm will come to

planting because it grows 
so fast the roots have

of losing it. like mad.
