n ■ 4 THE 
fJ(Unl FINEST 
LAWNS ARE 
THOSE THAT 
ARE SOWN IN 
LATE AUGUST 
and EARLY SEPTEMBER 
The reason for this is easily under- 
stood if the following simple facts are 
considered: 
(A) By Midsummer all weeds 
have sprouted and made their 
season’s growth. Therefore in 
Autumn weeds offer no com- y 
petition to the new grass. 'j 
(B) Lawn grass seed sown by early 
September has two full months 
of the best growing weather of 
the year, before cold weather 
stops further development. | 
(C) By September dry soil condi¬ 
tions are over. Cool nights 
and heavy dews promote rap¬ 
id and sturdy growth. Next 
Spring this growth will con¬ 
tinue without check, thus 
producing a tough, thick, 
deep green turf that will far 
surpass any Spring sown lawn.

Each year we are asked over and over again if Breck’s Shady Spot Lawn Grass Seed can be used in con¬ 
junction with Boston 1 ark. Actually, our Shady Spot Mixture was designed for just this purpose. The two 
mixtures may be sown side by side, the one in full sun, and the other in shade or semi-shade. In texture and 
color they will blend to perfection. Lse Shady Spot for all places not in full sunshine—-under trees, and here, 
there, and everyw here, such as the shady side of buildings and along borders where shrubs or trees cast partial shade. 
The mixture contains no Clover. Sow at the rate of 1 lb. to 300 square feet.
