MICHELLE RELIABLE GRASS SEED 
FALL SEEDING 
The cool moist weather of late summer and early fall afford an ideal condition for rebuilding a lawn that has suffered from drought, 
neglect, or the ravages of weeds. Seed sown at this time will show quicker growth, and has a tendency to stool or spread out, a condition 
not present during the warmer months. Competition with weeds is practically eliminated at this season, since the latter are incapable 
■of germination until Spring, by which time fall-sown grass is thoroughly established and the weeds have little chance to thrive. Seed 
may be sown successfully as late as October 15th, in the latitude of Philadelphia, but we would recommend the month of September for 
best results. 
Quantity to Sow for Lawns. We recommend sowing one quart to 100 square feet; one peck to 1000 square feet; one bushel to 
4000 square feet; six to eight bushels per acre on new ground without grass. In renovating established lawns, use half the above 
•quantities.
