FOLLOW THESE SIMPLE STEPS IN MAKING 
A BEAUTIFUL, MORE WEED-FREE NEW LAWN 
The lawn area is of greatest importance in any land- 
scape plan. You want it to be weed-free, thick and sturdy 
so it can take hard usage. The best way to assure that kind 
of a lawn is to see that it is properly made and properly 
maintained. Here are six steps to successful new lawn 
making: 
1. Spade deeply. At least to a depth of 6 inches. 
P2.. Pulverize the soil thoroughly, working in humus ma- 
terial (such as peat moss) or sand as required to con- 
dition the soil. 
3. Put on 4 pounds of a dependable fertilizer such as Vi- 
goro per 100 square feet of area and work it into the 
top inch or two of the seed bed. 
4. Seed, with good grass seed. You need a carefully cleaned 
seed, low in weed content and high in germination, to 
get a good lawn started quickly. 
5. Roll the lawn to compact the soil and assure good con- 
tact between soil and seed. If you do not have a roller 
find some means of tamping down soil enough to as- 
sure contact. 
6. Water with a fine spray daily until germination of seed 
is complete. Carpet grass seed requires 9 to 10 weeks 
(sometimes longer) to germinate. 
TO KEEP YOUR LAWN LOVELY 
12 Soak the lawn when you water it. Soaking once a week 
is much more beneficial than daily sprinkling. 
2. Feed the lawn regularly in early spring and again in 
early fall with Vigoro, or a similar complete plant 
food. 
3. Reseed bare spots as they occur. You don’t want weeds 
to get a foothold. They will if sturdy, thriving grass 
plants are not there to keep weeds out.

..- but we sure can’t say the same thing about northern and eastern seed catalogs 
-..+ pretty and nice as they are for their own sections. You see, folks . .. lots of 
plants that make themselves at home up there in those cool climates and grow 
right tall and sturdy just can’t make good down South. They just seem to get poorer 
the more they’re exposed to our kindly old sunshine. Lots of folks come in com- 
plaining about certain types of seeds they order up North. That’s why we urge you 
to buy only seed which is recommended for this section. Your chance of making 
a good crop will sure be improved.
