Lawn Qrass Seed 
The lawn is the most important factor in the development of the home grounds. It furnishes the setting for the 
house and puts the finishing touch on an attractive home. Proper grass seed mixtures cannot be selected and com¬ 
pounded in a haphazard manner. It requires precise knowledge and experience to produce a formula that will meet the 
varying conditions of soil, situation and climate and produce throughout the entire season a beautiful green sward. 
Through years of experimentation we have developed Lawn Grass Mixtures which we can unhesitatingly recommend. 
They are composed of only plump, clean, vigorous seeds which are sure to produce satisfactory results. 
How To Make a Lawn 
The ground should be well spaded and thoroughly raked, so that the soil is fine and free from lumps and its surface 
smooth, even and firm. If a thick, heavy sod is wanted quickly seed should be sown at the rate of one pound to 150 
or 200 square feet. It takes twice as much seed to make a lawn as it does for raising hay and it frequently happens that 
good results are not obtained on account of scanty seed. A dressing of granulated Peat Moss on a new lawn is very 
beneficial. See below. 
EMERALD LAWN GRASS MIXTURE 
This seed is specially prepared for the intermountain 
region, and is composed of the best fibrous, deep-rooting, 
spreading, intermingling, fine leaved, low-growing grasses 
and is especially adapted for our Western arid climate and 
contains nothing but the purest of seed.
