Burpee's Famous Lawn Grass Seed 
The best time to start your lawn, or to repair it, is during the cool weather of early spring or in early 
fall. The weather at these times is favorable for the development of domestic grass but unfavorable 
for most weeds and wild annual grasses. Why not plan now to have a luxurious lawn that will add 
so much to the beauty of your home? Our leaflet, No. 20, “How to Establish a Lawn,” will be sent 
free upon your request. Sow 1 lb. of seed to 200 sq. ft.; 100 to 150 lbs. per acre.
