Beller Seeds Make Better Lawns 
YOUR LAWN WILL BE ONLY AS GOOD AS THE SEEDS YOU SOW. Since the seed is the least 
costly part of a new lawn, the few cents additional per pound for the best will be saved many times, in 
better germination and freedom from weeds. — 
Lawn-Making Suggestions 
First spade deeply. The addition of 
weedless steer manure, leaf mold, peat 
moss, or other humus material at this 
time is advisable but not essential. Rake 
to the desired grade and water thoroughly 
to settle the soil evenly. Waiting for two 
weeks to allow the surface weeds to ger- 
minate is a wise plan. Hoe these, then 
rake the final grade and broadcast the 
seed evenly, and cover with weedless steer 
manure, or peat moss, at the rate of five 
sacks per 1000 sq. ft. Sprinkle with a 
fine spray, keeping the surface moist at 
all times, but avciding any puddling. 
All prices subject to change 
without notice. 
“Better Lawns’ Mixture. Contains fine- 
bladed, permanent lawn grasses only 
(does NOT contain Clover or Rye

joy to see, and possess. Sow 5 Ibs. per

bladed, permanent lawn grasses only, 
which thrive in full or partial shade.

tures for sunny locations. Sow 6 Ibs. 
per 1000 sq. ft. Doubly recleaned seed, 
per Ib. $1.35. 
White Dutch Clover (Trifolium repens). 
Forms a rich, green carpet by itself, 
but is usually combined with Blue Grass 
as a nurse crop, or for quick winter re- 
sults. Sow 4 Ibs. per 1000 sq. ft. Per 
Ib. $1.40. 
Chewing’s Fescue (Festuca rubra sp.). A 
hardy, drought-resisting, fine-bladed 
perennial for either sun or _ shade.

by itself for results on poor or sandy 
soils. Sow 6 Ibs. per 1000 sq. ft. Per 
Ib. $1.00. 
Seaside Creeping Bent (Agrostis maritima 
select). This exceedingly fine-bladed 
grass makes a beautiful, velvety turf, 
tending to keep out weeds. Grows well 
in either sun or shade, but requires 
careful attention, with frequent mow- 
ing and regular watering, morning pre- 
ferred. Sow 4 lbs. per 1000 sq. ft. 
Per Ib. $1.85. 
Pacey’s Perennial Rye Grass (Lolium 
perenne select). A quick, serviceable

1000 sq. ft. Per Ib. 25c. 
Bermuda Grass (Cynodon dactylon). Very 
resistant to drought and heat. For a

ners and reseed with other grasses. Sow 
4 Ibs. per 1000 sq. ft. Per Ib. $1.25.
