Partial view of residence and giounds of Mr. Charles Dingee. Lawn sown with Dmgee Lawn Grass Seed 



Dingee Special Lawn Grass Seed 



The best Lawn Grass Mixture for general sowing, as proven by careful experiment and comparison. It 

 produces a smooth, velvety green sward of attractive appearance. In preparing the ground for seeding, break 

 it 10 to 12 inches deep with plow or spade and pulverize thoroughly. The surface should be raked perfectly 

 level to prevent the formation of pools after heavy rainfalls. 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. Rolling is also in general practice. 



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 practised, 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, 35 cts. per pound, 2 pounds for 65 cts. In bulk, by express, 25 cts. per pound, 10 pounds 

 or more, 20 cts. per pound, or about $5.40 per measured bushel; a legal bushel of 14 pounds will cost $2.80.
