Wetsel’s Lawn Grass Seed 
HOW TO MAKE A LAWN AND 
WHEN 
Lawn Grass can be sown either spring 
or fall. Spring sowing should be done in 
March or April and fall sowing in Septem- 
ber or October. One pound of seed will sow 
300 to 400 square feet. Dig or plow the 
ground 6 inches deep, pulverizing the clods. 
Work fertilizer into the soil at the rate of 
4 pounds to 100 square feet and rake till 
smooth. Broadcast the seed thickly, half 
one way and half the other, cover lightly 
and roll or pack the soil to provide a firm 
seedbed. Cut when two inches high and cut 
regularly. Water generously twice a week; 
oftener in dry weather. Pull out weeds and 
coarse grasses with a lawn weeder and sow 
seeds where the weeds were. For lasting 
results give the lawn a good application of 
fertilizer in the fall and spring. If you have 
lawn problems bring them to us. 
If ordering Grass Seed by mail, add 10c 
for first pound and 1c extra for each addi- 
tional pound.
