LAWN SEEDS AND GRASSES 
U-3 GRASS, developed by the United States Department of Ag- 
riculture, is something new and different in creeping grasses. In 
fact, it still bears its experimental number, U-3, instead of a name. 
U-3 GRASS is similar to Velvet Grass (also a type of Bermuda) in 
texture, but far superior in every other respect. 
The color of U-3 GRASS is a dark, rich, satisfying green lasting 
longer into the cold winter weather and appearing earlier in the 
spring than Velvet grass and common Bermuda. Mowing is not a 
problem with the low-creeping growth habit and fine texture of 
U-3 GRASS. Its thick, carpet-like turf eases the crabgrass and weed 
control problem so common to lawns in this area. 
U-3 GRASS is sold by the square foot of sod. When planted ac- 
cording to instructions (furnished with each order), each square 
foot of sod will plant from 20 to 50 square feet of lawn area. It 
should be planted in May or June and usually becomes a solid lawn 
by July or August. Our supply is very limited. Order yours early 
to be sure it will be shipped'at the proper time. CAUTION: U-3 
GRASS does not produce seed. It can be started only from the sod 
or roots. We recommend U-3 GRASS for the sunny lawn area only. 
PRICES: $1.35 per square foot, postpaid. 5 square feet for 
$4.00, not prepaid. 10 square feet for $7.50, not prepaid.

Bermuda Grass 
Our EXTRA HARDY strain is ideal for Football Fields and 
Playgrounds. In this region, Bermuda grass lawns must be estab- 
lished from a strain of proven hardiness (most seed of Bermuda 
grass comes from southern, non-hardy strains). Our EXTRA 
HARDY strain of Bermuda grass has survived all our floods, 
drought and cold weather of the last 25 years. 
One bushel of Bermuda grass roots will plant between 200 and 
300 square feet of lawn area. Between May 15th and June 15th is 
the best time to plant. It should not be planted in the fall or before 
May Ist in the spring. Complete instructions for planting are 
furnished with each order. Prices are not prepaid.
