LAWN GRASS SEEDS 
Prices on Grass Seed subject to change. The pound prices do not include postage. 
100-pound prices are by freight or express, at purchaser’s expense. 
HOW TO MAKE A LAWN 
The best soil is a good medium texture; the surface should be thoroughly pul- 
verized and smocthed to the desired grade, removing ail large stones, roots and hard- 
ened pieces. When the soil is firm, level and suitably moist, sow Lawn Grass Seed 
at the rate of 75 to 100 pounds per acre, or a pound to 200 square feet (a space 10x20)» 
It is unwise to be too economical in the quantity of seed used, if the best results 
are desired. The seed should be sown broadcast and as evenly as possible, then given 
a thorough rolling or tramp well with the back of a spade. Seed must be well firmed 
in soil. Our lawn seed does not contain Crab Grass seed. 
SOWING 
The sowing of grass seed in late summer or fa!l is highly recommended. Sowing 
at this time of year causes the young grass to “stool out,’ whereas if planted during 
hct weather it tends to grow tall and slender. For this reason it requires a greater 
quantity of seed. Fall planting is also beneficial in that it prevents the re-seeding 
of weeds. Spring planting is also satisfactory, but should be done early in order 
that the ycung grass will cbtain a good growth before warm weather. 
Water lightly but thoroughly. It is not adviseable to “soak” the ground until the 
new grass has been cut. m 
New turf should have its first cutting when the grass is from 2 to 8 inches long. 
Set the blades of the mower high to clip only the ends of the young grass. 
The continuous growing of oNe crop impoverishes the richest soil. Blue grass 
is no exception and when not fed with the proper fertilizer, soon turns sour. Blue 
Grass is a permanent crop and requires richer feeding than most crops. It must 
be thorcughly enriched if it is to live and grow.
