SHIPPING SEASON 
We begin shipping orders in the fall as soon as stock is properly 
matured and dormant enough for transplanting. Shipping continues 
through fall and winter and early spring. We highly recommend EARLY 
PLANTING. lf you get your plants out in fall or winter, they will be 
established when spring comes, and you will get better growth than 
you will from spring planting. However, you may safely plant through- 
out the winter and spring, whenever the ground is not frozen, and 
uniil actual growth siarts in the spring. 
DEPENDABLE GRASSES FOR YEAR AROUND LAWN BEAUTY 
EXTRA FANCY HULLED BERMUDA GRASS SEED 
(Cynodon Dactylon). Will grow on almost any 
soil, and is the finest grass to sow in the South 
for summer lawns. In order to have the best suc- 
cess in the growing of Bermuda Grass the seed 
should be planted in the spring or late summei, 
when the weather is warm or moist. If sown be- 
fore a wet spell the seed will come up in a very 
short time after rain. Have the ground well pre- 
pared, then sow the seed broadcast. After the 
sowing run a roller over the land so as to firm 
the surface, as Bermuda Grass requires a firm 
seed bed. For lawns sow 5 to 10 pounds to every 
1,000 square feet, 20x50, mixed with dry sand 
before sowing. Price: Lb., $1.35; 2 lbs., $2.60; 5 
lbs., $6.35; 10 Ibs., $12.40. 
CARPET GRASS (Axonopus Compressus), Carpet 
Grass is very satisfactory for planting in shaded 
spots, under trees, etc., where Bermuda will not 
grow. It is used extensively in South Texas and 
other Gulf Coast sections for general lawn pur. 
poses. It is a perennial creeping grass that forms 
a close compact turf, has a broad leaf and rather 
heavy stem and grows well on land short in lime. 
This grass is worthy of a trial in shaded spots 
where you have not been successful in growing 
other grasses as it seems to require less plant 
food than other grasses. Price: Lb., 90c; 2 lbs., 
$1.70; 5 lbs., $4.00; 10 lbs., $7.75.

RYE GRASS. This grass makes an ideal winter 
lawn when properly planted. It must be planted 
thick, using one lb. of seed to each 100 sq. ft. 
otherwise the plants will produce a heavy stem 
and your results will not prove satisfactory. 
When planted as directed you will be more than 
pleased. A green winter lawn at the time most 
lawns are dead makes an attractive setting for 
your home—giving a glow of warmth through 
the cold months. Price: 1 lb., 50c; 2 lbs., 90c; 5 
Ibs., 2.25; 10 lbs., $4.25 postpaid. 
WHITE DUTCH CLOVER (Trifolium Repens.) Used 
in planting in shaded spots, also for winter lawns 
with mixed grasses. Price: Lb., $1.60; 2 lbs., $3.00 
postpaid. 
CENTIPEDE GRASS. This grass will stand more 
abuse and get along with less care than any 
other lawn grass. Although not a “Miracle 
Grass,’ it requires only common sense treatment 
to give maximum results. Especially drought 
resistant, therefore well suited to the long hot 
and dry summers of the southwest. 
A low growing perennial grass, spreading by 
creeping stems that root at each joint, thus form- 
ing a very dense resilient mat of stems and 
leaves. Has no underground runners and so may 
be easily controlled. In appearance, half-way 
between St. Augustine and Bermuda. Although 
it does not usually stay green in winter, it greens 
22 

up sooner than these oiher two grasses. At ma- 
turity, Centipede grows to a height of 3-4 inches. 
Since it requires so little mowing, usually 3 or 
4 times a year, it has become known as the 
"Lazy man's grass.’’ Where beauty is of sec- 
ondary importance, it demands no attention, once 
it is established. 
Ideal for home lawns, grass plots around in- 
dustrial plants, cemetery plots, school grounds, 
athletic fields, golf course fairways, terraces, 
road shoulders, erosion control and many other 
places where a hardy grass is needed. Centipede 
will definitely grow on any soil, regardless of 
fertility, if it is properly drained. 1 bushel grass 
roots will plant 300 to 400 sq. ft. Although true 
that Centipede grass will crowd out weeds and 
foreign grasses, a newly planted lawn should 
be kept free of weeds until the grass has a good 
start. PLANTING INSTRUCTIONS WILL ACCOM- 
PANY EACH SHIPMENT.
