TBe DINGEE S CONARD (b. Weht Hrove. Pa, 



The Dingee & Conard Co.'s Lawn Grass Seed. 



A Special Mixture of tke Best Natural Grasses for Making New Lawns and Renovating Old Ones. 



This mixture of Lawn Grass Seed is the result of careful experiment and comparison, and we regard it as 

 the best combination for general sowing. It produces a smooth, even and velvety green sward that is particularly- 

 attractive and pleasing. 



In preparing the ground for seeding, break to the depth of 10 to 12 inches with plow or spade and pulverize thor- 

 oughly ; be careful to see that the surface grading admits of free upper drainage, so that the water will not collect in 

 pools after heavy rainfall?. Sow the seed carefully and evenly in quantities of about one quart to each 300 square feet 

 (15 X 20 feet), or five bushels to the acre ; then with "a fine harrow or rake cover and give a top dressing of animal manure, 

 ground bone or some other good commercial fertilizer. Seeding may be done at any time during the Spring, Summer 

 or Fall months; but the best results are obtained by sowing during April, May, September or October; if the work is 

 done during the Fall months, a heavy top dressing of stable manure may be applied ; in the Spring, the gross matter 

 may be removed, leaving the surface "clean. If manure is used in preparing the soil, in the Spring it should be incor- 

 porated with the earth. To renovate lawns where the grass has disappeared in places— with a steel rake scratch the 

 surface thoroughly and aiter sowing a liberal quantity of seed rake the spot over well in order to cover. In cases where 

 the surface fan h has been removed or covered by a clayey or sandy subsoil it will be necessary to restore at least a part 

 of the original loam. The use of mau-ures and compost in liberal quantities will be of great assistance.
