PULVERIZED HYPER-HUMUS is a scientifically prepared soil organic from an unusually fine deposit of well-de-composed sedge peat, naturally impregnated with lime.

Practically Non-Acid Free from Weed Seeds Alive with Bacteria

Bents and other grasses thrive on greens enriched with Hyper-Humus. This natural organic helps prevent brown patch by maintaining dis-ease-resisting turf. Used with fertilizers, Hyper-Humus eliminates danger of injuring grass roots. We have done much research on greens maintenance and are in constant touch with greenkeepers and greens committees. Just now, our capacity is taxed to the limit, but we welcome corre-spondence.

Let us help you plan a course to be proud of. Write today, stating your problem.

BALL WASHERS

Popular with players because they thoroughly clean balls with speed and ease . . . with-out slopping or harmful scrub-bing of cover paint. Ball is protected because the Henry washes it with rubber instead of old-fashioned brushes. Popular with greenkeepers because their heavy pressed steel jacket is unbreakable and rust proof; they are quickly and easily serviced; no rotten brushes requiring frequent replacement.

HENRY BALL WASHERS will solve your ball washer problem permanently.
