As a result of years of experimenting and actual experience in 
developing turf for airports, Stumpp & Walter has developed special 
formulas that contribute not only to ease and safety of operation, 
but present pleasing panoramas to airport patrons. Our turf experts 
are at the service of airport managers, to make specific recommenda- 
tions where necessary. Upon request, this service is given without 
obligation. Write, phone or wire and our representative will be glad 
to tell you how you may seed for a well-matted, yielding, wear-resistant 
turf at perfectly feasible costs. 
A good grass field is safe because in bad weather, as well as good, 
the surface is even and firm; and by using grass varieties that have 
tough wiry leaves and very deep roots, a sod can be obtained that 
will not readily develop ruts and mud-holes. 
In dry weather, dust is absent from a grass field. There are no 
stones to be caught up by the slipstream to annoy passengers and 
damage wing surfaces, no grit to settle on motors.

Distinctive marking may be helpful to the pilot on an all-grass 
field; and if wished, the field may have runways of dark green against 
a lighter gray-green for the remainder of the area. When this mark- 
ing is desired, use our Superfine Quality seeds for the runways and 
our Fine Quality seeds for the remainder of the field. The effect may be 
enhanced by applying Special Grass Fertilizer to the runways before 
seeding, and by top-dressing them every spring and fall; it also helps 
if the runways are mown more frequently than the out-field.

Turf Grasses and Their Cost 
The law in most States requires that an analysis tag be placed 
on all packages of lawn seeds. Please read it. 
Kentucky Bluegrass, Chewing’s Fescue, and Bent Grasses 
are the principal permanent grasses in northern lawns. Shade 
Bluegrass is good in both shade and sunny mixtures. 
These varieties should PREDOMINATE in a good mixture. 
Unfortunately they are expensive. Our mixtures may appear to 
cost more, but the use of the best seed is proper economy, sav- 
ing much weeding and renovating expense later. 
_ Redtop is a semi-permanent nurse grass and a moderate percentage is ad- 
visable in most mixtures. Perennial Ryegrass is semi-permanent too, and 
another good nurse grass, particularly in shade formulas and for spring sow- 
ing; but it should form only a moderate percentage of the mixture. White 
Clover, where desired, may form a very small proportion of the grass mixture. 
Common Ryegrass is an annual, and should only be considered as a nurse 
grass or for temporary lawns. We do not recommend Timothy for lawns. 
Meadow Fescue should not be confused with those very desirable Turf Fescues, 
Chewing’s, Red and Creeping. It is coarse and not suitable for good lawns. 
Common Ryegrass, Timothy and Meadow Fescue are quick to start, and 
cheap. A lawn sown with them may get a head start the first few weeks, but 
eventually it will be surpassed in permanence and good color by lawns sown 
with better seed. Good seed is still the lowest cost item in producing turf.
