LAWN SEED 

Fine lawns are made only by careful prep- 
aration of the seed bed and relentless atten- 
tion to mowing, watering and weeding in 
the early stages. Use only the best grade of 
seed; it pays. Carefully spade and level the 
ground by raking. Roll or tamp until level. 
Carefully loosen the surface with the rake and 
sow seed. A mulch of steer manure or peat 
is very beneficial to maintain an even mois- 
ture content. First mowings should be made 
with the mower blades set 1/2 inches high. 
Never mow a lawn close. 
We offer the finest grade of grass seed ob- 
tainable at regular market prices. You can 
depend on our seed for the highest purity 
and germination. 
Annual Rye. Tough annual grass makes a 
quick temporary lawn but better used as a 
nurse crop with other slower grasses, in 
which case use a small percentage of rye to 
the whole mixture. 



The grass is always greener with these nationally 
renowned lawn products. Give your turf this beauty 
treatment—a nourishing meal of 
@ Scotts Lawn Food, a sowing of 
Scotts Lawn Seed, and follow the 
maintenance suggestions in free
