cially yours truly.

with a very good turnout for the
first meeting of the fall. Sid
Baunsgard took over as presi-
dent for Chuck Bridges who was

about the bridge as conunJttee
chairman. He reported Commis-

into dry dock this month for its
second semi-annual Coast Guard
check and to make any repairs
they deem necessary while it is
in Tacoma.
Two Islanders have been con-
fined to the hospital recently.
Three weeks ago Gordon Sim-
mons was taken in and stayed
for five days at that time. He
came home briefly and then had
to return. He just came home
last Friday from his second trip
in three weeks. All your Island
friends hope you are coming
alon. lots better by now, Gordon.

What to consider--late su,n,,,er/early fall
IT'S LAWN SEEDING TIME A GAIN!
This dry summer was hard on lots ,of Mason CoUn'
Now is the time to put new seed on that dr/and
This is also the time to build that new lawn yog

Is matted turf a problem? Use our gasoline po

FERTILIZING A MUST
Nature is most cooperative then. It's the season when you can
make two blades -- or even four -- grow where one grew before.
The result is a thicker, greener lawn... Why? Because, typically,
days are warm but nights are cooler, with heavier dews. Generally
the pattern of rainfall is better too. These conditions, combined
with shorter days, slow up vertical growth as the plant directs its
energies toward the development of tillers, nature's way to thicken
the turf.
