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 and Sheep Ma- 
nure 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 ap- 
plication 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 occa- 
sional seeding. 
Prices: 1 lb., 60 cents; 5 lbs., $2.75; 10 lbs., $5.00.
