Lawn Grass Seeds 
(ASK FOR PRICES) 
For making a new lawn or for reseeding estab- 
pene lawns, use our special recleaned grass 
seed, 
There is nothing that will improve the appear- 
ance of your home so much as a well-kept lawn 
with a flower bed or two, and a liberal planting 
of shrubs along the borders. To have a good 
lawn it is necessary that you get your soil in 
fine condition, that you sow a sufficient quantity 
of good seed, and that you take care of the grass 
after you have a stand. 
Our Lawn Seed has all been thoroughly re- 
cleaned, is of high purity and germination. Sow 
at the rate of 1 pound to 150 to 200 square feet. 
When making a new lawn, be sure that the 
soil is well drained and that a sufficient amount 
of fertilizer has been incorporated in the soil, 
using a fertilizer rich in plant food. 
Lawn Grass Seeds are in very limited supply, 
especially Kentucky Blue Grass which the past 
season was a very short crop. This makes it nec- 
essary to use other fine tuft grass to make up 
the shortage of Blue Grass. Order Lawn Mix- 
tures, aS these will make a good lawn. 
As a top dressing use a balanced Fertilizer, 
such as Vigoro or. Sacco, or incorporate the fer- 
tilizer in the soil before sowing the seed. Do not 
use barnyard manure for top dressing.

mediate showing that will be followed by a good

any other mixture ,

KENTUCKY BLUE GRASS 
Special Recleaned Seed 
This is the most widely used grass for Lawns; 
forms a close, thick turf and is very hardy. Seed 
is slow to germinate and must be kept weli 
watered with a fine spray until it is established. 
BUFFALO GRASS FOR LAWNS 
Treated to hasten germination. This is a low- 
growing long-lived drought-resistant perennial 
grass that spreads by numerous surface runners 
Profuse branching of runners enables this grass 
to form a dense»sod. The leaf surface is a gray 
green, turning to purplish in late fall. Seed should 
be applied at the rate of from % to % pound 
per 1,000 square feet of lawn area. The seeding 
rate is readily obtained by spacing the seed 
% to % of an inch apart in the rows or by drop- 
ping 15 to 20 seeds per foot of row, in rows one 
foot apart. After the lawn is up requires very 
little water, making it an ideal grass for farm 
lawns, parks and cemeteries. 
CANADA BLUE GRASS 
A more rapid grower than Kentucky Blue Grass 
and equally good for pasture but not as suitable 
for lawns. This is an excellent pasture grass for 
poor, dry land and should be more largely used 
for this purpose. 
WHITE DUTCH CLOVER 
This is a low growing clover used principally for 
lawns in a mixture with Blue Grass. It germi- 
nates quickly and acts as a protection for the 
slower germinating Blue Grass.
