The House Famous for Lawn Grass Seed’s 
“NEW LAWN FORIVIULA” Prepared 
Especially for Chinch Bug Infested Areas 
Many beautiful lawns throughout certain 
areas of the eastern coast of the 1 niter! States 
and elsewhere have been completely destroy¬ 
ed as a result ot the extensive ravages of a 
recent lawn pest, the Chinch Bug. 1 his btig 
is of the sucking insect type and does its dam¬ 
age to lawns by piercing the grass blades and 
shoots near the soil level and sucking out 
the juices of the grass. 
Certain grasses have been found to be high¬ 
ly resistant to the attacks of this insect and 
it is a careful blending of these grasses that 
make up our “Permanent Turf.”

BURNETT’S “BANK AND 
TERRACE” MIXTURE 
f-^ 
On sloping banks it is often necessary to 
use sod, as heavy rains wash the soil off before 
the grass seed has time to germinate. It is 
sometimes even necessary, in sodding very 
steep banks, to use pins 8 or 10 inches in 
length to pin the so(ls in place, to prevent 
them from being washed down by excessive 
rains before the grass roots have had time to 
fasten in the soil. The I errace mixture which 
we offer is composed of deep-rooting grasses 
which, if once established, will hold the soil 
and prevent washing. e advise lil^eral ter- 
tilization and seeding so that the grasses may 
be (luickly established.

The most logical control of this and 
other lawn pests is tlirough the establish¬ 
ment of various individual grasses which 
are less susceptible to insect injury. We 
highly recommend our new “Perma¬ 
nent Turf” Formula for this purpose. 
(.SV^* above). 
Experimental work has shown the 
most effective chemical control to be 
either pure Toliacco Dust or Rf)tenone 
Dust, applied at the rate of 2 to 4 lbs. 
per 100 sq. ft. Application should be 
made during the hottest part of tlie day 
and the material tboroiigldy brushed in. 
There are two broods, application for the 
first should be made in early June and in 
early August for the second. page 70.)

BURNETT’S “SHADY PLACE” MIXTURE 
Tlie most serious lawn insect pest in recent years. 
The grubs feed on the roots of the grass during May 
and June and again in .\ugust and September. The 
serious increase of this pest tlireatens 
the very existence of our gardens and 
lawns. Earnest cooperation of all within 
the infested area in fighting the Japa¬ 
nese Beetle is the only solution to the 
control of this menace. Grub proofing of 
lawn areas with Arsenate of Lead kills 
the grubs and safeguards the lawn from 
damage. 
Kate of A ppliratioH —1 lb. to each 100 
sfp ft. Apply either in early Spring or 
late Summer. Rake in tlioroughly. See

When a lawn is much shaded, either in whole or in part, the shaded portions should 
he sown with Burnett’s ‘‘Shady Place" Lawn Grass Mixture, which is a combination of fine, 
dwarf-growing evergreen varieties, which, in their wild or natural state, are to be found grow¬ 
ing in the woods or other .sheltered or shady places. Under or in the immediate neighborhood 
of large trees fertilizers should be applied liberally and freciuenth’, for the trees absorb the 
fertilizer and impoverish the ground. Ground much shaded is very frequently sour, and if 
the drainage is defective it is apt to be covered 
with moss. In such ca.ses an application of lime 
or wood ashes raked in will sweeten the soil, but 
the moss should be first removed with a sharp 
steel-toothed rake. Lb. 75c., 5 lbs. .$3.50, 12 '2
