Park Lawn Grass Mixture
In my lawn mixture I use only the highest quality, extra clean seed, and free from weed seeds, which abound in inferior grades. I use only the choicest low growing grasses and a lawn produced from my seed will maintain a rich, dark, velvety appearance and a permanent sod.

The Preparation and Care of a Lawn
The ground must first be thoroughly prepared by draining, if necessary, and spade or plow to the depth of 6 to 12 inches, according to the nature of the soil, applying a liberal quantity of well decomposed manure, bone meal, or pulverized sheep manure ; the latter we recommend as being lasting in effect, not liable to burn the grass, and free from weeds. Clean the ground thoroughly and rake perfectly smooth and level, as much of the success depends upon this part of the preparation. The seed should be sown ona . calm day, that it may be applied evenly and at the rate of sixty-four pounds per acre, or one pound is sufficient for 600 square feet. After the seed is sown the ground should be rolled with a light roller or evenly tamped with the back of a spade. The plat should be mowed every ten days from May until September, using a sharp scythe in preference toa mower until a close turf is formed. Frequent mowing and rolling is necessary to main- tain a close even turf. April and September are the best months for sowing lawn seed.

Sseedsman 41 Washington, corner Eddy Street, Providence, R. I.
In presenting my catalogue for the coming season, I wish to thank my many friends for their liberal patronage in the past, and to solicit their favors for the future.
FIRM CHANGE. Since the last issue, the partnership existing the past seven years has been dissolved. This will in no way affect the most critical part of the trade, viz. Seeds and Bulbs, which have been under my personal care.
SELECTION OF STOCK. My connection with the seed trade for more than twenty-five years should have eminently fitted me to secure stocks that will prove satisfactory to the most critical trade, as I have been able to demonstrate to those who have trusted me with their seed orders.
LOCATION OF STORE. My store will be found on the northwest corner of Washington and Eddy streets, one block from Dorrance or Westminster streets, and within a short distance of the Union Railroad Station.
SEEDS BY MAIL. For the benefit of out-of-town buyers, I pay postage on all seeds ordered in packets, ounces and one-fourth pounds. Add for prepay- ment of postage on large quantities at the rate of eight cents per pound. Peas and Beans, fifteen cents per quart. Corn ten cents per quart.
EARLY ORDERS are always advisable, as the stock of many varieties is liable to be exhausted early and many times good stocks are not obtainable later.
PACKING AND DELIVERY. I make no charge for boxes and packing and deliver all goods free within the city limits. Seamless bags are charged fifteen cents and small cloth bags ten cents each.
While the greatest care is exercised to have all seeds pure and reliable, I do not give any warranty, expressed or implied. If the purchaser does not accept the seeds on these terms and conditions, they must be returned at once, and the money that has been paid for same will be refunded.

MUSHROOMS
Mushrooms may be grown in a warm cellar or shed in winter, or in the open airin summer. Take par- tially dry fresh horse manure and lay itin a heap to ferment; turn and mix it well every few days, and when well and equally fermented, which will be in from ten to fifteen days, it may be made into a bed four feet wide and about two feet deep, mixing it well together and beating or treading it firmly. As soon as the temperature of the bed falls from 75 to 50 degrees, the spawn may be inserted, in pieces about the size of a walnut, about two inches deep and six inches apart. Cover with loamy soil about two inches deep and beat it down evenly and firmly. Finish off with a covering of clean straw or hay about a foot thick. Water when necessary with luke-warm water, and expect mushrooms in from four to six weeks.

SWEET PEAS
Fragrant climbing annuals. Seeds should be sown early in spring to enable the vines to get a good strong growth before the warm weather. Make trenches six inches deep, in which the seed should be sown, covering them two inches. As soon as the plants show through, fill in the trench, which will secure a deep root and allow blooming through the heat of summer. Keep the flowers picked off as fast as they come into full bloom, for if the pods are allowed to form, the plants will stop blooming.

Their green leaves are surmounted with a cluster of lovely trumpet shaped flowers.

The Seed Drill is complete in itself merely requiring to be bolted with two bolts to the wheel frame. As a drill it opens the furrow, drops the seed, covers and rolls it and marks the next row at one passage. It can be set to sow shallow or deep, thick or thin, as desired, and handles all garden seeds. The flow of seed can be instantly shut off to turn rows. The agitator is a revolving brush which will not injure seed in the slightest. .
Combined Drill Seeder and Double Wheel Hoe, $10. Combined Hill and Drill Seeder and Double Wheel Hoe, $11.
THE “NEW MODEL” SEED DRILL
Drills of similar construction are usually provided with a series of holes of varying sizes through which | the seed is passed, which of course, do not always fk give an opening of the exact size required. As will be readily seen, by reference to the sectional cut, this adjustment is accomplished by use of a pear- shaped opening, passing under the bottom of the seed reservoir, which is provided with a perforation Wm, / 7S of similar shape in a reversed position. This slide of ey FB | can be instantly adjusted to size indicated by index. (i S Ae The index is placed in open sight, immediately under we the eye of the operator, and as stated above, canbe %& . quickly adjusted to the slightest variation desired, — — as the names of the principal seeds are plainly shown Stee on the index itself, it is not necessary to refer to any / table of reference. The flow of seed can be instantly stopped by a swinging cut-off, conveniently operated by a cord and ring on handle. Price, $7.50.

“IRON AGE” DOUBLE WHEEL HOE For the cultivation of garden crops, it is an indispensable implement. With it one person does the work of several men with great ease. One great advantage which this double wheel hoe possesses is that it can be made into a practical single wheel hoe in a moment’s time. The wheels are 16 inches high, enabling the wheel hoe to run easy and without yielding to the depression of the soil, as a low wheel will do. The frame being made of tubing coupled to ma//eab/e castings gives great strength, together with lightness. Price, complete, $6.50. THE “GEM OF THE GARDEN” : Single Wheel Hoe fo greater proof can be given of the popularit: of a eal or Pf its ee ea a simple fact of a continued demand for it. In the past few years there have been placed about fifteen thousand of the ‘‘Gem” Wheel Hoes in the hands of gardeners, and we are not aware of a single instance in which it has failed to give entire satis- faction to the user. It is not a toy, neither is ita tool made of light Ey, castings, calling for con- stant repair. the ‘‘Gem”’ being largely made up of steel and malleable tron. The set of slender. stir- ring teeth, each stamped from one piece of steel, cannot be excelled for thorough work, especially = in hard soil. Price, complete, $4.50. With teeth Se ——————— only, $3.25. THE “IRON AGE” HILL AND DRILL SEEDER This is the most complete tool ever offered by the manufacturers of the ‘‘Iron Age” implements. It has only been placed upon the market after a most thorough experiment and field tests. The wheel is 16 inches high, made of steel, with a 2-in. tread. The opening plow is clog proof and can be instantly adjusted, The hopper is low; therefore the delivery of the seed is close to the ground, thus making possible accurate spacing. The distance of spacing the seed can be instantly changed by simply removing a small wheel at the side of the hopper and reversing it, or by putting on another. The flow of seed can be instantly stopped or started by a convenient finger latch on the handle. Price, $10.00. “IRON AGE” SINGLE WHEEL HOE My

This tool is, in regard to the work done, almost a counterpart of the Double Wheel Hoe, and t eae
_ same remarks as to its construction, extreme lightness and ease of operation will apply with equal force

between the rows, although plants of small growth can be hoed on both sides at once by placing
on the left side. With this single wheel tool, spaces of exceedingly narrow width can be work
