CE FOR EVERY NEED 
This year of all years, DO NOT WASTE SEED! Good seed is in short supply and it is high 
in price due to a very short crop last season. Provide or select favorable soil and weather 
conditions and do not overseed. Use from 3 to 4 lbs. per 1000 sq, ft, when seeding bare 
ground and less when reseeding over an old lawn. Avoid late Spring seeding if possible. 
March is much better than April; April is much better than May, 
SPECIAL PURPOSE GRASSES 
Kentucky Blue Grass — Considered by 
many as our most valuable native grass. 
It forms a close, thick turf of rich dark 
green color. Being rather slow in ger- 
minating, it is usually used in combina- 
tion with other grasses. This is espe- 
cially true in making a new lawn.

25 Ibs, $46.25; 100 lbs. $178.00.

tucky Blue, but somewhat coarser. Es- 
pecially adapted for use in hot dry loca- 
tions, on hillsides and on thin soils.

MERION BLUE GRASS FORMULA 
Merion Blue Grass is a single plant selection from Kentucky Blue Grass which 
gives new hope to lawn enthusiasts because of its ability to continue growth and 
retain its healthy green color through the hot dry months of summer, and its thick 
growth, discouraging weeds and Crab Grass, It has been tested and proved through- 
out the country for the past several years and is highly recommended by the U. S. 
testing station at Beltsville, Md., and also the U. S. Golf Association. Now, we offer 
you this fine formula (containing 40% Merion Blue, 40% Illahee Creeping Fescue, 
10% Colonial (Highland) Bent Grass and 10% superfine Red Top Grass), which is 
suited to either full sun or shaded areas. Its advantages: (1) fewer mowings, (2) 
better color, (3) fewer weeds, and (4) disease resistance. Cost of seeding compares 
favorably with the common lawn grasses. Because of its spreading habit and smaller 
seed size, one pound covers 600 to 750 sq, ft. Lb. $3.00; 10 lbs. $29.00; 25 lbs, $71.25. 
Note: We have available a limited amount of straight Merion Blue Grass 
at $4.95 per pound; 5 pound lots or more @ $4.85 pound.
