The making of a lawn is not a matter of chance. Good seed, proper fertilizer, 
the right soil condition—all are vital factors. 
If you are contemplating making a new lawn, or restoring an old one, let us 
help you with your problem. 
WORCESTER Worcester Lawn Seed is our own mixture 
I AWKI CCC^ mac * e f rom a formula which has been given a 
3CCU great deal of careful study and we are positive 
that no better general purpose lawn seed can be 
made. If this is used the lawn will be ready for the first cutting in 
about five weeks and with reasonable care an excellent lawn can be 
V maintained for years. We advise using 140 to 160 pounds per acre.

Lawn Seed 
There are only a very few kinds of grasses 
suitable for lawns. Seeds of these fine kinds 
are much more expensive than the seeds of 
other less desirable grasses, most of which 
make good hay, but do not make good 
lawns. The cheap seeds will often grow and 
cover the ground with green, but eventually 
the lawn wiil deteriorate and have to be 
re-made, which is a very expensive and 
troublesome thing to do. 
The Best Results are obtained by sowing 
the seed quite thickly, one pound or quart 
to 200 or 300 square feet, but sowing one 
pound on 400 to 500 square feet will make 
an excellent lawn although not quite as 
quickly. 
To Renew Old Lawns. Rake thoroughly, 
stirring the ground as much as possible 
without killing the grass. All moss and 
weeds should be removed as far as pos¬ 
sible. Sow half as much grass seed as rec¬ 
ommended for seeding a new lawn. After 
seeding, the lawn should be rolled.

CEMETERY The locations of many of the cemeteries with which 
u ■ yji I n r we are familiar, have been selected due particularly 
fVII A I UKt to the fact that the soil is well drained and quite 
often we find a sand or gravel top soil. This mix¬ 
ture is intended for such places, as we have selected the varieties of 
grasses which are best adapted to such soils. Price, lb., 40c; 5 lbs., 
$1.75; 10 lbs., $3.25; 100 lbs., $30.00. 
BANK and TERRACE We have had so many calls for a 
XA IYTI IDF mixture of grass seed to be used on 
#V»■ A I UKt a bank or terrace, that last year, for 
the first time, we offered a mixture 
for this purpose. It is mixed from grasses which naturally grow a 
strong, creeping root and are very valuable in holding the soil in place, 
preventing serious washouts during heavy rains. The seed starts quickly. 
Price, lb., 60c; 2 lbs., $1.20; 5 lbs., $2.75; 10 lbs., $5.25; 100 lbs.,
