CAPITOL CITY LA WN GRASS SEED. 



Our mixture of Grass Seeds for Lawns, Farks, Tennis and Cricket grounds is composed of the finest varieties of 

 grasses each of which has its season of beauty, and the result of this blending is the producing of a sod that is not only 

 alwavs'eTer<'reen and velvetv in appearance", but of the color and beauty of the emerald. 



Seeding i's preferable to sodding, because it is cheaper, and will soon cover the earth with a luxuriant growth of 

 thrifty grass and if fertilized spring and fall will last indefinitely. 



Frequent mowing prevents natural seeding, which grasses annually supply in abundance to restore and thicken 

 sod. Hence when the srass is iniured bv tramping or thinned by other cause, the best and most natural method to 

 restore its beautv is to sow seed plentifully. Use two pounds of seed on a space 20x40. or SOO square feet. 



These seeds should be covered verv slightlv and a roller run over the ground after sowicg. Pt. 10c. Qt. 20c. Lb. 25c.

LAWN FERTILIZER. 



Old and New Lawns Require Stimulating, after the long drag through winter, or in the fall after the season of cut- 

 ting and the heat of summer. For this purpose oiu- hish grade bone meal is best adapted to the wants of the lawn: 

 It should be sown broadcast, from the middle of February to the first of May for spring and from September to Novem- 

 ber in the fall. In preparing a new lawn use a liberal quantity and rake it in thoroughly before sowing the seed. 

 10 lbs. sow enough for 250 square feet. 10 lbs. 30e. 100 lbs. $2 50.
