ELVELY 
LAWN GRASS MIXTURE 
THIS PERFECTLY BLENDED LAWN GRASS MIXTURE WILL 
GIVE YOU A LAWN YOU CAN MOW IN SIX WEEKS FROM 
PLANTING. VELVETY LAWN Grass Mixture is a combination 
of grasses and clover mixed in such proportions as to give 
you a quick, sturdy and beautiful lawn. The faster growing 
grasses contained in Velvety Mixture serve as nurse crops for 
the slower growing varieties which are eventually the dominat- 
ing grasses of the mixture. We placed Velvety Mixture on the 
market many years ago and from time to time have improved 
the blend by reducing some of the proportions and increasing 
the quantities of better grasses contained in the mixture until 
now in our IMPORVED VELVETY MIXTURE we have a grass 
that pleases wherever it is planted. Rate of seeding is 1 Ib. to 
250 sq. ft. Price, lb. 70c (by mail 80c).

BEWARE of LAWN MOTH 
(Sod Webworm) 
The damage by lawn moth grubs is no doubt the greatest factor 
in unsuccessful lawns. The adult of this worm is a night flying 
moth which on warm summer evenings will completely cover the 
lawn in some districts. These adults deposit eggs in the grass. 
Here they hatch in a few days into a grub. This grub is a whitish- 
brown worm with a bright dark brown head. Immediately after 
the grub emerges from the egg it enters the soil, where it feeds 
on the roots of the grass; and being possessed of a very large 
appetite it devours a huge quantity of grass roots daily. An army 
of these grubs that set to work in a lawn will cause large spots to 
die out all over it in a very few days. 
There has been a tendency in the past to liken this damage to 
“brown patch’ (a well-known grass disease), to lack of water, 
and, or to insufficient fertilizer, therefore, adding to the damage, 
fungicides have been applied, fertilizers have been spread on, the 
lawn reseeded and the grass has been drenched with water to no 
avail. A simple cure for this devastating grub is BARFOOT ROTE- 
NONE SPRAY, listed on page 47. For further data on the control 
of lawn moth please write us. Free literature will be sent’ you 
without cost. NS
