Culture. Same as for sweet corn (see page 18) except given 
a little wider spacing—in rows 3 to 314 feet apart, and 15 to 18 
inches in the row. Grows more vigorously and is a little later 
in maturing than most varieties of sweet corn. For control of 
corn earworm see page 54.

from seed planting to the first harvest under average

Kilgore’s Lawn Grasses are especially adapted to Florida conditions. Our grass seeds are recleaned, well-bagged, and of 
highest quality stocks. 
Due to present uncertain conditions, all grass seed prices quoted are subject to change without notice. Bitter Blue- 
stemmed St. Augustine and Centipede Grass are used only for lawns. The other grasses listed and described on this 
page are used for lawns, golf courses and for pastures. For information on “When to plant grass seeds in Flor-

BERMUDA GRASS 
Unhulled—For lawns sow 100 to 150 pounds per acre, or 2 to 
4 pounds per 1000 square feet. For pasture, sow 25 
pounds per acre. 
Hulled—For lawns sow 75 to 100 pounds per acre or 1\% to 
2 pounds per 1000 square feet. For pastures sow 15 to 25 
pounds per acre. 
Bermuda grass is generally considered to be the finest of 
Florida grasses for maintaining a most beautiful and perfect 
lawn. It is of fine texture, can be maintained green practically 
the year around, is a rapid grower and produces a lush, 
green carpet of turf. However, it requires careful attention 
in maintenance. It prefers loam or clay soil and will grow 
well on sand or muck. 20 to 30 pounds per 1000 square feet 
of a complete fertilizer such as Vigoro or Vertagreen should 
be applied twice a year. Frequent weeding 1s desirable. ING 
though Bermuda grass will respond to watering, 1t will stand 
considerable drouth. A thorough watering every 5 to 7 days 
during periods of extended drouth should be sufficient. The 
grass may be clipped closely (34 to 1 inch) and frequently. 
Bermuda will not grow in shade. It spreads by surface 
runners and by underground root stalks. Seed can be planted 
from March to November at the rate of 2 to 4 pounds per 
1000 square feet.

conditions.

PENSACOLA BAHIA GRASS 
For lawns sow 100 to 150 pounds per acre or 2 to 3 pounds 
per 1000 square feet. For pastures sow from 
2 to 5 pounds per acre. 
This variety of pasture grass is sometimes used for low 
maintenance lawns. It is of fine texture and will remain 
green most of the winter (longer than Centipede grass). 
Will tolerate dry or infertile soils, but makes an open,
