Jo Mahe a Lawn 
Sow as early in the spring as possible. Dig or plow the ground deeply, 
pulverizing the clods. Work fertilizer into the soil 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 seed-bed. 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. Ask for our Lawn Grass

By actual experience we have found that when grass seed is sown on 
top of a lawn without preparation a large percentage of the seed is 
wasted. In our opinion, the best method is to cut the lawn with a lawn 
mower, setting the blades as close to the ground as possible, and then 
thoroughly raking the lawn with a heavy rake, taking out all of the 
dead grass and clippings which are on the lawn. This method will give 
the grass already in the lawn a good cultivation, after which seeding 
should be made. Then cut the lawn again which will give the lawn a 
good smooth appearance and pack the grass seed into the soil. The use 
of a roller, if available, is desirable. Then water freely. Apply good 
fertilizer generously (see below). 
Sow 1 pound of seed to 300 square feet, or thicker on damp spots.
