H WILL’'S PIONEER BRAND GRASS SEED 
DIRECTIONS FOR MAKING LAWNS 
The seed bed should be spaded or plowed to a depth of 6 or 7 in, All lumps should be broken up, 
the surface smoothed with rake or plank and well firmed. Sow evenly on a quiet day, rake in well and 
roll if possible. Use seed at the rate of 1 lb. per 200 square ft. If possible water thoroughly at once. 
Good loam soil is best, for the finest lawn black dirt may be spread several inches thick but a good 
turf of the hardier varieties does not require it. 
| Our Emerald Mixture should be used for the best lawns where water is available. 
Red Top and Chewings Fescue are adapted to shady spots. 
For a little harder conditions but where some watering is possible, use our Dakota Mixture, 
For a good looking dry land lawn, farm yard or large public grounds use Buffalo Grass Stolons or 
Fairway Crested Wheat Grass.
