Lawn Grass Seed 
LOUISVILLE LAWN MIXTURE 
This blend of fine-leaved grasses with White Dutch Clover is recommended for use in 
reseeding established lawns, patching thin spots, and for seeding newly graded yards where 
a permanent stand of Kentucky Blue Grass is desired. Ready for cutting after 30 days 
of good weather. This seed should be broadcast evenly to avoid a patchy appearance. 
For New Lawns. The soil should be well prepared, and Bone Meal or Sheep Manure 
should be well incorporated with the soil. Seed should be sown at the rate of 1 pound 
_for every 300 square feet, selecting a time when there is no wind. After sowing, roll or 
rake lightly. 
For Old Lawns. Bare spots should be vigorously roughed with a steel rake. An 
application of SHEEP MANURE will act as a stimulant to patches lacking plant food. 
Scatter the seed as evenly as possible, then rake or roll lightly. 
Several sowings are better than one. Do not risk all your seed at one time. The 
seed may be washed away by a downpour of rain immediately after planting. A good plan 
is to sow a part of your seed walking East and West — the next time walk North and South, 
in this way assuring an even distribution. Very good success can be had from scattering 
seed on a soft snow. In spring it is well to rake out all dead grass before sowing. 
Use Grass Seed Generously. Where lawns are kept in neat condition, the plants do 
not produce seed as Nature intended. This deficiency must be supplied by an occasional 
seeding.

This seed should be used only on well-established 
lawns, as it does not “‘stool out” or produce a turf 
until the second year. On newly-graded soil, 
Blue Grass should have a nurse crop of Red Top 
and White Dutch Clover.
