CENTIPEDE grass forms a thick heavy turf that 
will crowd out weeds, but it is advisable in newly 
set-out lawns to eliminate weeds and foreign grasses 
until the CENTIPEDE plants start forming runners. 
PLANTING may be done at any time of the 
year when sufficient moisture is available, although 
Spring planting generally gives quickest and best re- 
sults. 
The MAINTENANCE of Centipede grass its 
simple as this grass seems to be entirely immune to 
so many of the pests and diseases often bothersome 
in other grasses. The main care an established Centi- 
pede lawn requires is occasional mowing. Mowing 
three or four times during the year is usually suffi- 
cient and care should be taken that the grass is NOT 
MOWED TOO CLOSELY, as this may result in 
permanent damage. Where a perfectly smooth lawn 
or ground cover is not necessary or desired, the grass 
does not require mowing as it will only grow ap- 
proximately 4 inches tall.

It would, of course, be possible to fill page after 
page about the wonderful results obtained from this 
grass all over the South. We have merely scratched 
the surface and feel that no promotional sales talk 
is desired or necessary. 
We are not “GRASS BROKERS” but were 
among the very first to realize the possibilities 
CENTIPEDE GRASS offered. We have grown, 
planted and sold it since 1926. In fact, we planted 
-vhat we believe was the first CENTIPEDE GRASS
