FARQUHAR’S SPECIAL GRASS SEED MIXTURES. 
~~ = 
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 velvety 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 pound per bushel of grass seed. Per lb., 25; per 100 lbs., at 20 cents per lb.: per 1000 Ibs. 
at 18 cents perlb. Sow 50 lbs. per acre.

and it has been very satisfactory. The grass is of a beautiful color, very thick, and is now ready to be clipped off for the third time. It attracts
