CENTRAL PARK LAWN SEED 
brjf « 
Scene Around Music Stand, Central Park. 
HOW TO MAKE A LAWN. 
The ground should be thoroughly plowed, then harrowed until the surface is completely pulverized. 
When the seed has been sown a light harrow should be applied, after which the surface should be made smooth 
and even with a roller. 
To make small plots or to replant bare spots, rake the ground well, then sow the seed and rake it in lightly and 
make the surface smooth with a roller. 
When the grass is well grown cut it frequently. The oftener it is cut the finer and thicker the lawn will be. 
Grass seed may be sown at any time during the spring or fall. 
One quart of the CENTRAL PARK MIXTURE is suiScient to sow about fifteen feet square ; an acre will require 
from three to four bushels. To produce a good lawn it is always best to sow the seed thickly.
