IT CAN HAPPEN TO YOU! 
“Only God Can Make a Tree” wrote 
Joyce Kilmer in his immortal poem. You, 
however, can make a lawn that will add mu 
measurably to your home surroundings. 
There are several dependable methods 
for those who desire the very finest of lawns. 
Where the area is not too extensive, the First 
Choice naturally is the use of Cultivated Sod. 
This method produces a lawn as the sod is 
being laid and, while the initial cost is slight" 
ly higher, there is an ultimate saving in its 
permanency. 
For Second Choice. Spade up area, apply 
fertiliser in accordance with requirements 
disclosed by a soil analysis, sow i or 2 cover 
crops, which are to be worked into ground 
to provide humus; then seed (preferably in 
autumn) with Dauernheirrfs Special Mixture 
of selected grass seed. This method requires 
i l A to 2 years to develop a satisfactory lawn. 
For Third Choice. To lay ordinary pasture 
or field sod; or, if lawn is partly established, 
the following treatment could be provided. 
Hand weed as weeds appear. Ordinary sod 
often contains many weed seeds which may 
take from one to two years to eradicate. 
Apply several dressings of rich top soil free 
from weed seeds, and seed with Dauernheim’s 
Special Mixture of selected grass seed. 
Following your selection of either of 
the above methods, there inevitably arises 
the question of maintenance — a problem 
which cannot be left to chance or indiffer" 
ent treatment. We know Grass as it has 
long been one of our “pets,” if you will. Our 
advice on the best way to take care of a 
lawn after its establishment is available to 
our customers at all times. Come personally
