PERFEGRO BRAND 
HIGH QUALITY SEEDS 
Perfeg'ro Lawn Grass Seeds 
For making a new lawn or for reseeding es¬ 
tablished lawns, use our special recleaned grass 
seed. 
There is nothing that will improve the ap¬ 
pearance of your home so much as a well-kept 
lawn with a flower bed or two and a liberal 
planting of shrubs along the borders. To have 
a good lawn it is necessary that you get your 
soil in fine condition, that you sow a sufficient 
quantity of good seed, and that you take care 
of the grass after you have a stand. 
Our Lawn Seed has all been thoroughly re¬ 
cleaned, is of high purity and germination. 
Sow at the rate of 1 pound to 150 to 200 
square feet. 
When making a new lawn, be sure that the 
soil is well drained and that a sufficient amount 
of fertilizer has been incorporated in the soil, 
using a fertilizer rich in plant food. 
As a top dressing, use pulverized sheep ma¬ 
nure or a highly concentrated commercial fer¬ 
tilizer, avoiding barnyard manure, which is not 
only unsightly, but contains large quantities of 
weed seed as well.
