November ijth. 



Messrs. R. & J . Farquhar & Co.. Boston, Mass. 



Gentletnen: — I have used your Lawn Grasses for the past eight years and have found them of extra fine quality and entirely free from 

 foul seeds. Your Putting-Green Mixture is the finest I have ever seen — the greens at Bretton Woods produced from it are unrivalled. 



Yours truly, G. S. MERRITT, Prof. Golfer. 



FARQUHAR'S FAIR GREENS MIXTURE. 



This is composed mainly of perennial native grasses and two very important European grasses which have proven of great value 

 for Fair-Green use. They are all of dwarf, spreading growth, forming a close velvetv surface which improves from year to year if given 

 proper care. It contains no clover, which is objectionable on account of making the surface slippery. If white clover is desired, the 

 quantity sown should not exceed one-half jxiund per bushel of grass seed. Per lb., 25 cents; per 100 lbs., at 20 cents per lb. ; per 1,000 

 lbs., at 18 cents per lb. Sow 50 lbs. per acre. 



FARQUHAR'S GRASS SEED MIXTURE FOR PUTTING=GREENS. 



The hardiest and finest low growing Grasses are contained in this Mixture. It produces a beautiful and lasting green turf cal- 

 culated to withstand hard tear and wear. Quart, .30; by mail, .40; peck, $1.50; per bushel of 20 lbs., S6.00. 



FARQUHAR'S GRASS SEED .\HXTURE FOR TERRACES. 



A mixture of strong, deep-rooted Grasses for banks or terraces. Although the Grasses are strong and deep-rooted, they \y\\\ pro- 

 duce a fine green velvety surface, and also prevent washing away during heavy rains. Quart, .30; by mail, .40; peck. Si. 50; per bushel 

 of 20 lbs., $6.00. 



FARQUHAR'S GRASS SEED MIXTURE FOR SHADY PLACES. 



This is a mixture of extra fine grasses adapted for growing in the shade and under trees. We recommend the use of this mixture 

 wherever other grasses on account of shade have failed to make a close sward. Quart, .35 ; by mail, .45 ; peck, S2.00 ; per bushel of 20 

 lbs., S7.00. 



Mrs. L. F. Nicoll, Newburgh, N. Y., August 20, 1909, writes: — " I v/»uld like to take this opportunity of expressing to yoit the abso- 

 lute satisfaction we have found in one year's trial of the seeds you hair sent us. Evervthing has done very nicely and as vty gjrdeniT has 

 already told you, we are particidarly proud of our lawn, which though seeded in the drought last suinnwr, is no-ie and hjs been all summer 

 as handsome as many a lawn of many season's growth."
