How (o Make the Lawn 
Dig the soil about 6 inches deep and take care that no subsoil is brought 
to the surface. If the area is poor, draw in additional top-soil. 
Scatter Sawconure on the dug earth at the rate of 100 pounds per 1000 
square feet, or S. & W. Co.’s Emerald Grass Fertilizer, using 50 pounds 
per 1000 square feet, or one ton per acre. Rake to a smooth surface and sow 
Staigreen, Shady Place, or other of our lawn seed mixtures, at from 1 pound 
(nearly 2 qts.) to 2 pounds to each 400 square feet, or 100 pounds (4 to 5 
bushels) to 200 pounds per acre. Rake the area very lightly and roll. 
The best season to make a new lawn is very early in the spring, or m 
the autumn. Winter seeding, even on snow, is also practical. Lawns made 
in summer or late spring are usually infested with weeds the first year. 
Use LAWNSPREAD.* Improves Lawns—Grubproofs Soil 
A complete top-dressing in dry powder form—mixture of Plant-Foods, Grass Seeds and Lead Arsenate 
LAWNSPREAD contains screened, sterile soil-materials, approved 
grass-foods, and high-quality grass seeds; in the mixture, also, are 
ingredients to deter earthworms, Japanese beetles, and grubs; others 
to protect against fungous diseases. There are no weed seeds in 
Lawnspread, and it is almost odorless. Lawnspread may be used 
wherever grass fertilizers would be applied, but it is a complete 
treatment, and better results may be looked for. 
LAWNSPREAD is a dry powder packed in units containing one- 
half bushel and weighing 25 pounds. In a dry, cool place, Lawn¬ 
spread may be stored up to four weeks without impairing the ger¬ 
mination of the grass seeds contained in it. 
To renovate thin or bare turf, roughen the surface and broad¬ 
cast one unit on each 10 by 20 feet. If necessary, repeat at intervals 
of a month until a perfect turf has been obtained.

DIRECTIONS FOR USING LAWNSPREAD 
Broadcast evenly; rub the powder off the leaves with the back 
of a rake. 
As a tonic for any lawn, use one unit on each 20 by 20 feet at 
any time. An ideal treatment is to make four applications a year— 
in March, April, September, and October. Use every month on 
crab-grass, grub-infested areas, or on brown-patch-infested lawns. 
Care of an Existing Lawn 
Mowing. As soon as new grass is 2 inches high, begin mowing it. Afterward cut 
twice a week, setting your mower so that it cuts the grass moderately long, especially 
during July and August. You need not remove clippings; if they are unsightly it shows 
that you do not cut often enough. 
Rolling. It improves a lawn to roll it once a month, but only roll when the 
land is dry; otherwise you may squeeze it into too compact a mass for the grass 
to grow. 
Weeding. Our seeds are as free from weeds as care can make them; aH soils, 
however, contain seeds of weeds and many of them start to grow along with the 
grass; these, ordinarily, are not removed from a new lawn at first, because mowing 
will kill most. Six weeks after the first cutting, however, take out whatever weeds 
may then be seen. It is important to dig deep down for dandelions and plantains, 
while for crab-grass it is sufficient to cut the plant off at the ground-level. Mix four 
teacups of STAIGREEN with a pailful of soil and fill all weed-holes. 
Routine Feeding. Use Lawnspread, described above, or spread Emerald Grass 
Fertilizer every spring, at the rate of 25 pounds per 1000 square feet, and Sawconure, 
at 50 pounds per 1000 square feet, late every autumn. Lime_ every second winter, 
at the rate of 25 pounds per 1000 square feet, will be helpful in most sections. 
Chinch Bug may be controlled by several sprayings of Rotene. 
Earthworms may be eradicated with Vermol. 
Japanese Beetle and White Grub may be killed by using Lawnspread or Senoled 
Brown Patch may be checked by spraying with Semesan. 
Lawnspread is described above. 
Lawnspread will not burn the grass, nor will it injure btrds$ 
cats, or dogs 
*Trade-Mark Registered, Patent Pending 
No seeds are purer and grow more vigorously than 
the grass seeds in Staigreen, which is a mixture of five 
distinct varieties, and for lawns around the residence 
Staigreen cannot be surpassed. For shade and special 
conditions use mixtures shown on the preceding page.
