Ebeling’s Lawn Grass Seed 
EBELING’S LAWN SEED contains no timothy. 
Enormous quantities of so-called lawn seed are sold 
which contain little or no seed of permanent lawn 
grasses, but are chiefly composed of timothy, a coarse 
hay which comes up quickly, but inevitably ruins a 
ldwn* 
DON’T BE MISLED by cheap lawn seed—it sel¬ 
dom proves successful, and entails a lot of extra 
work to rid the lawn of weeds. Reliable lawn seed 
is the cheapest in the long run—even if the price 
is slightly higher. 
HOW TO MAKE A LAWN 
Have soil thoroughly spaded up, enriched with sheep 
fertilizers or ground bone, level and roll it well to 
make compact. Select a still day for seeding; sow 
one-half of the seed from north to south and half 
from east to west, rake it over and roll again. When 
grass comes up re-seed the bare spots. Mow grass 
when 2 inches high, and as necessary thereafter. 
Don’t rake up short clippings, as they make a good 
mulch. Always thoroughly soak a lawn whenever 
required, but never sprinkle lightly.

NON-WARRANTY 
Sometimes, though not often, our seeds do not 
come up after planting. This may be due to one or 
more of several reasons, such as covering too deeply 
or not deeply enough, too much or too little water, 
too cold weather or a baking sun which forms a 
crust too hard for the tender shoots to penetrate. 
Sometimes insects destroy plants at the surface 
before they are seen by the gardener. We cannot 
personally direct the use of our goods after they 
leave our hands; neither can we fully control any¬ 
where or at any time the operation of natural law 
as it affects seeds; therefore, we give no warranty, 
express or implied, as to description, purity, pro¬ 
ductiveness, or any other matter of any seeds or 
bulbs we send out, and we will not be in any way 
responsible for the crop. 
We are not bound for any definite time or quan¬ 
tity by the prices quoted in this catalog, and they 
are subject to change without notice. We recom¬ 
mend that you order as early as possible.
