HIGH PURITY .- 

STAIGREEN is a modern seed mixture that makes a good lawn. 
In it are fine, strong, and permanent varieties, of high purity an 
high germination; all are as free from seeds of harmful weeds as 
modern machinery can make them. STAIGREEN contains no 
crabgrass (guaranteed). 
The time-tested STAIGREEN formula is the result of years of 
experimenting and practical sowing on all types of soil. With it, 
many of the best lawns in the northern United States have been 
built. Under favorable conditions it will produce a deep-rooted turf, 
luxuriant, thick, and rich emerald-green, from early spring to early 
winter. 
Chewing’s Fescue is an important ingredient in the Staigreen 
formula. Being deep-rooted, and a robust grower in the heat of 
summer, it imparts to Staigreen a definite resistance to chinch-bug 
injury, drought, and summer scald.

Autumn-Made Lawns 
are Best 
Fall is also the most favorable time for 
renovating. Seed sown from August 15 to 
October 15 invariably grows well; thicker 
turf develops quickly under the influence 
of autumn rains and cool nights. You will 
have fewer weeds.
