nter on Lawn Making 



IF you want to tread exultantly on a soft, 

 springy, rich, velvety turf, you must sow bet- 

 ter grass seed than you can commonly buy. 



There is as much difference in seeds as there 

 is in hats or shoes. 



Much of the grass seed sold weighs only six- 

 teen pounds to the bushel because it contains 

 chaff and light weight seeds. Our lawn mixture 

 weighs twenty-two pounds to the bushel, indicat- 

 ing the complete absence of chaff, and is com- 

 posed of the finest and purest seeds that it is 

 possible to secure. 



Different grasses are at their best at different 

 times. Our seed is carefully mixed so that the 

 kinds composing it succeed one another in bright- 

 ness of foliage with the result that the lawn, 

 even in its first year, will have that bright rich 

 green appearance from early Spring until covered 

 with snow in Winter. 



We have given this branch of our business 

 years of careful study and believe our mixture 

 is as perfect, scientifically and practically, as study 

 and experimenting can make it. 



Our grass seed is used on such notable estates 



as those of W. K. Vanderbilt, John A. McCall, C. D. 



Wetmore, William Waldorf Astor, Whitelaw Reid, 



Cornelius N. Bliss, Clarence Mackey, Ogden Mills,
