Landreth’s Lawn Grass Mixtures 
September and October are the Best Times to Plant a Lawn — 
The fall season is the best time to sow Lawn Grass Seed. The soil is warm and friable, 
with plenty of moisture from dews and rains, which not only hastens germination but en- 
ables the roots to become well established before freezing weather sets in. 
Competition 
from weeds is less, and root growth is well established before Spring. : d 
Our Lawn Mixtures are composed of the finest varieties of grasses, each of which has its 
season of beauty, and the result of this blending is the production of a sod that is always 
evergreen and velvety in appearance. 
QUANTITY TO USE—On new lawns sow 1 Ib. of seed to 200 sq. ft., 5 Ibs. to 1000 sq. ft.,
