TAILOR MADE LAWN 
It comes in units of 50 square feet, is 20 feet long by 214 feet wide. 
TESTED AND APPROVED BY THE STATE OF NEW JERSEY AGRICULTURAL EXPERIMENT STATION AT 
RUTGERS UNIVERSITY 
SEEDS CAN'T WASH OUT—IDEAL FOR SLOPES AND TERRACES 
A Revolutionary New Product for Planting Lawns 
The Tailor Made Lawn is especially designed for gardeners without 
experience In sowing and making a good lawn. It consists of layers 
of crimped tissue (cellulose) paper with the grass seed, fertilizer and 
growth hormones evenly and properly distributed between the paper 
layers. It comes to you in rolls 20 feet long and 21 feet wide which 
are rolled out over a properly leveled surface. 
To get a perfect lawn all you do is roll out the ‘Tailor Made Lawn” 
over the prepared earth. By lightly sprinkling some soil over the soft 
crimped paper, your lawn making is completed but for the sprinkling. 
The seedlings grow up through the cellulose material and the young 
roots penetrate to the earth below. After several weeks an even stand 
of grass is estabiished and the cellulose wadding disintegrates. 
Grass seeds used are Kentucky Bluegrass 29.25%, Creeping Red 
Fescue 29.25%, Certified Colonial Bent 4.90%, Red Top 34.20%, 
Inert Matter 2.10%, weed seeds 0.30% (unremovable). 
We quote from a letter received by the manufacturer on March 3rd, 
fett from the New Jersey Agricultural Experiment Station at Rutgers 
niversity: 

“"....1 can report that | did make rather extensive tests of TAILOR 
MADE LAWN during the spring and summer of 1946. These tests were 
laid down in two different locations on slopes of approximately 25 to 
30 degrees. In each case the grass seed came through and produced 
good quality turf in spite of the fact that heavy rains were received 
very shortly after the seedings were made. The normal methods of 
broadcasting seed under these conditions were almost complete failures 
because the heavy rainfall washed almost all of the seed down to tne 
foot of the slope. In one location the heavy rains had washed the soil 
all around the area where TAILOR MADE LAWN was placed, but in 
spite of this, the grass still came through and produced acceptable 
turf. As far as the theory and use of this material is concerned, | do 
not hesitate to recommend its Use and feel it is a much better method 
of seeding than the usual method of broadcasting.”’
