How Much Seed? 
Skimpy seeding is costly in the 
long run. Plant enough to get a 
thick, heavy mat of grass and you'll 
need far less reseeding. The wise 
minimum for new lawn planting 
may be figured from this table: 
Size of Square Amount

20x50 1,000 
20x100 2,000 
50x100 5,000 . 
100x100 10,000 
For re-seeding, use at least half the 
amount.

A Good Lawn Starts From Good 
LAWN SEED 
_AND LOCALIZED KNOW HOW. 
Many fine lawns in our area got their start right here in our store. A 
knowledge of our climatic and soil conditions plus the experience of 
knowing what seeds grow best under given conditions is your assurance 
that we know what your lawn needs. 
UNHULLED BERMUDA GRASS 
Best for sunny exosure and summer 
lawns. Makes vigorous and persistent 
growth, lasts for years, stands long, hot 
summers well and grows well in any 
soil not too wet. Ideal for lawns, golf 
courses and athletic fields. Makes a 
tough, even turf without clumps and 
recovers quickly after cutting. For best 
results, sow when ground is thoroughly 
warm and moist. 
HULLED BERMUDA 
Highest grade Bermuda. Removal of 
the hard, almost water-tight hull 
speeds germination. With proper 
moisture conditions, seed germinates 
in one to two weeks and develops 
rapidly into a beautiful green lawn. 
WINTER RYE GRASS 
The winter grass for all the south. 
Fast-growing annual grass with long, 
flat leaves. Stands close and frequent 
mowings. Scratch seed into Bermuda 
sod for green lawn until Bermuda 
comes out again in summer. Makes a 
delightful green lawn in sun or shade. 
Must be replanted each year. 
KENTUCKY BLUE GRASS 
Deep, vivid green. Very narrow leaf 
blades. Plants are slightly creeping. A 
fine lawn grass under proper condi- 
tions. However, we recommend it only 
where it has been proved. 
CARPET GRASS 
Exceedingly hardy. Does better than 
any other grass in poor, sandy soil. 
The more mowing and trampling it 
gets the better it likes it. Good only 
in certain areas. 
RED TOP 
Good for low, wet spots. Stands wet 
weather, and even overflowing, better 
than other grasses. Does well on any 
good, rich soil. Often thrives where 
Blue Grass fails. 
WHITE DUTCH CLOVER 
Although not a grass, White Clover is 
used extensively to supplement lawn 
grasses in mixtures. Succeeds best on 
moist ground or during a wet season. 
OTHER GRASSES

listed here, we can supply just 
about any other variety you need.
