What's 
that 
weed? AND  WHAT  TO  DO  ABOUT  IT 

You can control weeds so easily 

To  ENJOY a lawn free from weeds is not diffi-

cult  these  days.  First  you  clear  them out 
with  specific  controls.  Then  follow  a  mainte-
nance  practice  that  keeps  the weeds  from re-
establishing  themselves. 

The  key to  that  maintenance  is proper  fertili-
zation.  Scotts  fertilizers,  used  on  many  more 
lawns  than  any other  brand,  are  designed 
specifically  to promote  the thicker  turf  that 
discourages  weeds. 

The  photographs  in this  book  will  help you 
identify weeds  and select  controls.
