WILSON’S EVERGREEN 
—Standard for Two Decades— 
Wilson’s Evergreen produces a smooth, green 
velvety lawn with a thick and permanent turf. To 
supplement the slow growing perennial grasses and 
to smother out weeds, Wilson’s Evergreen contains 
a small proportion of Dwarf English Rye Grass. 
This grass, in our extensive experiments, crowded 
out weeds and reduced the labor of eliminating 
them to a minimum. Being an annual, the Rye 
grass disappears after the first year leaving the 
fine grasses, of which Wilson’s Evergreen is com¬ 
posed, in complete possession. A small quantity of 
white clover is added to help thicken the under sod.

WILSON’S EVERGREEN WITH BENT 
—a fine new formula for discriminating 
home owners— 
This special mixture has been formulated to meet 
the demands of those who want a finer lawn—one 
that looks like a putting green. Wilson’s Ever¬ 
green with Bent is made up of a combination of 
fine, recleaned grasses using as a basis the imported 
and domestic bents. 
In maintaining a lawn of this type, the soil must 
be rich and it must be kept so. To prevent the 
starvation of the finer leaved grasses, a dressing of 
WILSON’S LAWN FERTILIZER in the Spring and 
Fall will work wonders. Wilson’s Evergreen with 
Bent is a finer lawn seed mixture for discriminating 
home owners everywhere.

Serious injury has occurred on many lawns, as a re¬ 
sult of the feeding of small, white grubs on grass 
of Asiatic beetles, Japanese beetles and June beetles. These 
lawns, and thus the better appearing turf in July and August 
grubs than lawns which were neglected and brown during 
application of lead arsenate powder. Ten pounds mixed with

Fifteen pounds per 1,000 square feet may be necessary on severely infested areas. Lead arsenate 
is poisonous to man, and consequently care should be exercised to avoid taking it into the mouth and 
stomach. However, treated lawns are perfectly safe for both man and his pets after the lead 
arsenate has been wa,shed into the soil.
