Burpee’s Lawn Grass Seed 
The best time to start your lawn, or to repair it, is during the cool 
weather of early spring or in early fall. The weather at these times 
is favorable for the development of domestic grass but unfavorable 
for most weeds and wild annual grasses. Why not plan now to 
have a luxuriant lawn that will add so much to the beauty of your 
home? The Burpee leaflet, ‘‘L 20—How to Establish a Lawn,” will 
be sent free upon your request. For new lawns, sow 1 lb. of grass 
seed to 200 sq. ft. of space; use 100 to 150 lbs. per acre.
