Lawn Qrass 
June is the ideal time to start a lawn 
Lawns play an important part in beautifying the home grounds, and once 
being established last almost indefinitely if properly cared for. 
Burpee’s Fordhook Finest Lawn Grass has been awarded many prizes, and 
the beautiful lawns on our Fordhook Farms in Bucks County have all been 
grown from the same blend of various American and foreign fine-bladed 
grasses which have proven to produce the best lawns under the varied 
conditions as to soils and climate met with in America. 
This special mixture will give a smooth velvety sod of a rich green color. 
It will make a thick turf and is free from common grasses which produce 
clumps and so frequently spoil the desired smooth effect. 
One pound of Fordhook Finest Lawn Grass seed will sow a plot of 20 x 20 
or 400 square feet, 80 pounds per acre are sufficient for careful seeding, 
but it is much better to use 100 pounds where it is desired to have a good 
close turf from the start. 
Ask for the free Burpee Leaflet “How to Establish 
A Lawn” giving complete directions for preparing 
the ground and sowing the seed together with the 
subsequent care and proper treatment of the lawn.
