A Perfect Setting 
FOR A 
WAYSIDE GARDEN 
ISA 
WAYSIDE LAWN 
After years of experience and constant experi- 
mentation, WAYSIDE GARDENS is able to offer 
blends of lawn grasses that will thrive under all 
normal and most sub-normal conditions. WAYSIDE 
mixtures do not contain Clover, as the great ma- 
WAYSIDE SUNNY 
A blend of the finest available grasses 
to meet WAYSIDE GARDENS exacting 
specifications. Carefully selected strains 
of seeds for their resistance to weeds, 
crabgrass and fungous diseases, their 
tolerance to drought, and for rich color 
and finer texture. If fertilized twice a 
year, and clipped to not less than one and 
one-half inches, this superb blend will 
produce a beautiful, almost indestruct- 
ible turf. Sow at the rate of five pounds 
to 1000 square feet. 
1 1b. $1.40, 5 lbs. $6.75, 25 lbs. $33.00 
50 lbs. $65.00 
jority of lawn growers prefer the finer textured 
grasses. WAYSIDE mixtures do not contain Bent 
Grass since the addition of Bent Grasses adds to the 
maintenance problem and causes the mixture to 
be more susceptible to fungous diseases. 
WAYSIDE SHADY 
A similar blend in color and texture to 
WAYSIDE SUNNY. Blended of seed 
strains that will thrive in areas receiving 
little or no direct sunlight. Careful 
selection of the proper seed strains 
solves half of the shady lawn problem. 
This mixture will produce a superior 
lawn provided the shaded areas are reg- 
ularly fertilized and watered at least 
once a week during dry periods. Sow at 
the rate of five pounds per thousand 
square feet. 
1 1b. $1.40, 5 lbs. $6.75, 25 lbs. $33.00 
50 lbs. $65.00 
Some gardeners prefer the color and fine texture of Bent Grasses and will take 
the necessary precautions to prevent fungous infections—others like Clover in 
their lawns. 
For these gardeners, we separately list the finest White Clover and Highland 
Bent, both of which may be added to our regular SUNNY MIXTURE. 
WAYSIDE WILD WHITE CLOVER 
The finest White Clover that can be purchased. Very small 
leaves, low growing and abundant growth. Can be sown separately 
or mixed with WAYSIDE SUNNY at the rate of one-half pound of 
Clover to five pounds of lawn seed. 
Y% 1b. $1.00, 1 1b. $1.75, 5 lbs, $7.75 
WAYSIDE BENT FOR LAWNS 
A hardy, highland Bent that is more resistant to disease than 
other varieties. Should be used in sunny areas only (Bent will not 
* grow in the shade). Mix with WAYSIDE SUNNY at the rate of 
one-half pound to five pounds of lawn seed mixture. 
Y% 1b, $1.00, 1 lb. $1.75, 5 lbs, $7.75 
We Learn from the English 
We are indebted to a noted English gardener for the Exclusive 
Plant Food we use in growing millions of plants of superior qual- 
ity. Among other things, he said: 
“A lawn should not be treated like a hayfield, but like a 
permanent garden. Therefore, | object to chemical fertil- 
izers for lawns. It is not the QUANTITY of grass cut from 
the lawn each week, but the DENSITY AND LUXURIANCE 
OF THE GRASS which produces the effect of walking over 
a thick velvet carpet that counts. If you want a thick lawn 
in which there is no room for weeds, it is essential that you 
use a properly balanced ORGANIC Plant Food—one that 
sinks deeply into the soil for the grass or plant roots to go 
after. That is where the moisture is, and you will find it 
unnecessary to water so much in summer.”’ 
WAYSIDE’S superior Plant Food’ is made from bone meal, dried 
blood, ground fish, and muriate of potash, in proportions recom- 
mended by the “old country’ expert. These long-lasting in- 
gredients, heavy with life-producing qualities, give your lawn a 
well-balanced diet, containing in just the right amounts those 
things that go to make strong roots, sturdy and bright green 
leaves, a profusion of foliage. It does not stimulate, but nourishes 
any and all plants and imparts to them a youthful and lusty 
vigor. It disintegrates slowly. Use it consistently year after year, 
and your lawn will be among the most beautiful.
