MERION BLUE GRASS 
Developed by the Greens Section of the U. S. Golf Assn. Stays green 
all summer. Makes such a dense turf that crab grass cannot possibly 
thrive in it. Resistant to leaf-spot disease that thins out lawn turf and 
lets weeds come in. Grows quickly, spreads rapidly, forms a thick, com- 
pact, deep green sod that wears well. Does not become dormant and 
brown in July and August. 
Requires less mowing than other grasses to keep the lawn looking 
well cared for. Some authorities say only one-half the mowing is neces- 
sary. A little seed goes a long ways. Use one pound per 1000 sq. ft. to 
build a new lawn. Half that amount when reseeding. 14 Ib. $1.35;
