HOW TO MAKE A LAWN LIKE THIS 
Sow from now until Nov. 1. Fall rains work It In the ground and the cool 
fall weather gives it a better start than it gets spring planted. Use 1 lb. to 
every 400 sq. feet to thicken up your lawn. Rake good, sow your seed, and 
then rake it in. Roll with a heavy roller. If you have one. Grass likes a firm 
seed bed. After a hot summer you’ll be surprised what you can do to your 
lawn with a little seed. See prices to left. 
I recommend my “Hurry-Up” 20-day mixture. It’s made especially for fall 
seeding and is faster and generally more satisfactory.
