Wood's 
“Arasan Treated” 
Lawn Grass Seed 
MADE WITH ONLY THE FINEST QUALITY TURF-PRODUCING GRASSES 
Chemical protection for lawn, pasture and hay crop seeds, te provide heavier stands of healthier plants, 
offers a new type of “crop insurance” for both home owners ard farmers, thanks to research in seed dis- 
infectants carried on by the DuPont Company and checked by experiment stations. 
The DuPont Company, who for many years have given the farmers of the country the benefit of bigger 
and better crops as a result of seed treating chemicals for grain ard vegetable seed, recently announced re- 
sults of two years intensive research on the treating of lawn grass seed. Their results show increases in 
final grass stand as high as 4614% of the treated seed over the untreated. This is because the chemical 
coating (Arasan) protects the seeds from rot, “damping-off,’ biight and other fungi diseases until they 
have an opportunity to establish themselves in the seed bed. These tiny seeds can carry but little reserve 
food to nourish them until their own food gathering root and leaf systems are developed. The protection 
given them by ‘‘Arasan” helps assure the seed buyer a thick, healthy stand from a normal seeding. 
We are happy to anzounce that we are now offering Arasan Treated Lawn Grass Seed to our customers. 
Take advantage of this extra service by buying Wood’s Arasan Treated Lawn Grass Seed for a better growth 
of grass and finer lawn.

To Make a Lawn 
The fall months are always considered as being particularly 
favorable for the seecing of new lawns or the reseeding of old 
ones. For new lawns, preparation of the seed bed is of the 
greatest importance and too much care cannot be given to this. 
The ground should be broken and thoroughly pulverized to a 
depth of at least six inches. If the land needs lime it should be 
applied at this time and well worked in. Repeated raking of 
the surface at intervals of several days will aid in killing any 
volunteer foreign growth and help to provide a clean seed bed 
One or two days before seeding, work a good application of 
Wood’s High-Grade Sheep Manure into the top two or three 
inches. Broadcast the seed evenly, half one way and half the 
other, cover lightly either by raking or with a drag and roll with 
a light roller. Keep moist, using a fine spray to avoid washing 
and after germination is well started, water only when nece's- 
sary. Pull out any weeds that appear. 
What Grass to Sow 
In Virginia and farther north, in westerly sections of the 
Carolinas and farther west, sow Wood’s Super-Green, Wood’s 
Evergreen and Shady Park Lawn Grasses. In other parts of 
South sow Wood’s Emerald Park Grass. Under trees and shaded 
places sow Wood’s Shady Park Lawn Grass. 
Renewing Old Lawns 
Ivery Fall and Spring sow more seec, Cut the grass close, 
apply a good fertilizer and rake in and broadcast the seed evenly, 
one pound or more per 500 square feet, according to the stand 
and again run the mower over the lawn. This will put the seed 
into the soil, Water freely. 
How to Cut Your Lawn 
Cut when two to three inches high and keep cut regularly but 
never shorter than one and one-half inches unless during cool 
weather. Be sure your mower is kept sharp. A dull mower 
bruises and injures the grass. During hot weather it is adc- 
visable to raise the mower blades. 
Wood’s Winter-Green Lawn Grass 
As its name implies, this Lawn Mixture will produce a beau- 
tiful green lawn through the winter months when many other 
grasses are dormant or not at their best. Especially recom- 
mended for broadcasting on top of established lawns to freshen 
them up during the cold months. To seed, simply cut the exist- 
ing lawn close, rake with a sharp rake, broadcast 1 to 2 lbs. of 
Wood’s Winter Green Lawn Grass per 100 square feet and again 
run the mower over the lawn. The result will be a velvety 
green lawn through the winter months, For best results, seed- 
ing should be done not later than October, although later seed- 
ing will produce good results if the weather remains open.
