AUTUMN IS IDEAL FOR REBUILDING THE LAWN 
The cool, moist weather of late summer and early fall affords an ideal condition for re- 
building a lawn that has suffered from drought, neglect, or the ravages of weeds. Seed sown 
at this time will show quicker growth and has a tendency to stool or spread out. Competition 
with weeds is practically eliminated at this season, since weeds are incapable of germination 
until spring, by which time fall-sown grass is thoroughly established. Seed may be sown suc- 
cessfully as late as October 15 in the latitude of Philadelphia, but we would recommend the 
month of September for best results. 
Quantity to Sow for Lawns: We recommend sowing 5 pounds per 1000 square feet, 
150 pounds per acre on new ground without grass. In renovating established lawns, use half 
the above quantities.
