How to Make a Lawn 
The best time to plant a lawn is either early in the spring before dry weather begins, or late in 
the summer so that the grass will get a good start before winter. 
A good lawn requires a rich, well drained soil. The ground should be well prepared by making it 
as fine and smooth and mellow and well leveled as possible. Before seeding a good fertilizer such as 
our Lawn and Garden Fertilizer should be scattered broadcast evenly over the ground at the rate of 
1 pound of fertilizer for each 50 square feet of lawn, and then well raked in. The seed should be 
scattered evenly over the surface at the rate of 1 pound for each 300 square feet of ground. Select 
a day when no wind is blowing, and divide the seed into two equal parts; then take half of the seed 
and sow it, walking across the lawn and sow the other half walking lengthways, thus insuring an even 
covering. After the seed is sown, rake it in lightly by drawing the rake toward you in a series of 
light strokes, raking only once in the same place. If possible roll the ground after seeding, but if no 
roller is available, tamp the seed into the ground with the back of a shovel and if the soil is dry, 
sprinkle lightly, being careful not to float the seed. For the first three weeks, or until the grass is 
well started, if the weather is hot and dry, the ground should be kept moist but never allowed to dry 
out, but also must not be soaked, so it is necessary to watch it closely and sprinkle whenever needed, 
but not too much. Later, when the grass is well started, it should be well watered about once a week 
during the dry season. The young grass may be cut as soon as it is 2 inches high and after that keep 
it mown regularly. Close cutting will kill most of the weeds, but what few remain should be taken 
out and the holes filled with good soil in which you have mixed some grass seed.
