Wheelex''s Special Grass Soed Mixtures 

The Formation of Velvety Lawns 
The main point in having a beautiful lawn is to start right. In the first place, see that the ground is thoroughly 
drained and well prepared with 6 to 12 inches of good soil for the top dressing. The best soil is a good medium 
texture, neither very heavy nor excessively light. Have all roots, loose stones and lumps of earth removed, and the 
surface raked down perfectly smooth previous to sowing. Early Spring or Fall is the best time to sow the seed. 
When the soil is in the proper condition, level, and suitably moist, sow our seeds at the rate of 6 to 7 bushels per 
acre, after which rake lightly and give a thorough rolling. One pound of seed will sow a plot of about 200 square 
feet. When the grass has become sufficiently established it should be frequently cut. The oftener this is done the 
finer and softer the grass will be.
