zA BEAUTIFUL LAWN 
It is universally conceded that nothing contributes so much to the beauty and attractiveness of the Home Grounds, the Park 
and the Cemetery, as a smooth, uniformly rich-green, well-kept lawn, which, to be perfect’ and a pleasure to walk on, should have 
a firm yet elastic and carpet-like surface. To secure this should, therefore, be the first consideration in laying out or renovating 
old grounds. 
Turfing with fine old pasture sod, at one time a popular plan of making a lawn, is now-almost entirely superceded by seeding” 
because of ‘the expense and difficulty in obtaining good, clean turf. On the other hand seeding is not only inexpensive but is 
in reality the only means of securing a fine and permanent lawn, depending only for its complete success on the thor- 
oughness with which the ground is prepared, the quality and quantity of the seed sown, and the subsequent care of the lawn. 
Our extensive experience in the seeding of lawns and exhaustive experiments with all kinds of lawn grasses have demonstrated 
beyond a doubt that many kinds are valueless, being too coarse or bunchy, and that one kind of grass alone can not be relied upon, 
in our climate, to produce and maintain a fine lawn. It is only by using a proper combination of several suitable varieties, 
sown liberally, that the most satisfactory results can be obtained. 
CURRIE’S LAWN GRASS MIXTURES are the result of years of study and careful observation, which, if our directions are 
followed in seeding, never fail to produce quickly a-thrifty growth of fine, velvety, rich green grass, continuous in 
verdure from early spring to winter, and creating a springy, dense, carpet-like turf and permanently beautiful lawn. 
THE QUANTITY OF SEED REQUIRED.—There is no fixed rule, but a liberal sowing is always satisfactory, while a light 
seeding is a waste of time and usually disappointing. A beautiful lawn may be produced in a few weeks, or it may not approach 
perfection for two or more seasons, according to the quantity of the seed sown. We have frequently, when in a hurry for a fine, 
close turf, sown at the rate of seven bushels of 20 Ibs. each to the acre with the most successful results, but in general the following 
quantities will produce the best results: 1 qt. to 250 square feet, 1 1b. to 400 square feet, 5 Ibs. to 2,000 square feet, 20 lbs. to 8,000 
square feet, 100 lbs. per acre. For renovating old lawns, about one-half-the above quantities, on the average, is required.

mixtures sent out by the trade, remember that the natural weight per measured 
bushel of our mixtures is 20 lbs. per bushel, while that of most mixtures is only 14 
Ibs. per bushel To obtain this exceptionally heavy weight per bushel, we must 
and do use onky the heaviest and best samples of the various grasses which com- 
pose our mixture. This is in itself a guarantee against sowing weed seeds, as the 
heavier the mixture the more thoroughly recleaned have been the component 
grasses. Per lb. 20c; 5 lbs. 75c; 20 lbs. $2.75; 100 lbs. $12.50.
