Dingee Special Lawn Grass Seed 



for Fall Sowing 



It produces a smooth, velvety green sward of 

 attractive appearance. Sow the seed carefully and 

 evenly at the rate of one quart to a space equal to 

 15 x 20 feet; two bushels will sow one acre. After 

 sowing, cover the seed by raking or harrowing it. 



Seeding may be done at any time during spring, 

 summer or fall, but the best results are obtained 

 by sowing during April, May, September or October. 

 Where fall sowing is practiced a top-dressing of 

 manure is recommended to protect the roots of the 

 young grass during the winter. In the spring the 

 gross matter should be removed, leaving the surface 

 clean. To renovate lawn, loosen the soil on the bare 

 spots with a steel rake, and, after sowing a liberal 

 quantity of seed, roll or rake again to cover the seed. 



Price: By mail, 50 cts. per pound; in bulk, 

 by express, 45 cts. per pound, 20 pounds or 

 more.
