FARQUHAR’S SPECIAL LAWN GRASS MIXTURES 
FARQUHAR’S “EVERGREEN” LAWN GRASS 
A mixture of the finest American and European grasses adapted to lawn-making. The formula for this mixture is the result of a life-time 
of practical experience in making and maintaining lawns. Neither pains nor expense are spared in obtaining grasses of high vitality and purity. It 
is our constant aim to make Farquhar’s Evergreen Lawn Grass the best, purest and most permanent Lawn Grass sold. For the formation of new 
lawns sow not less than 100 lbs. per acre. One pound will sow a plot 20 x 20 feet or 400 square feet. For renovating existing turf, use one-half 
this quantity. Price per lb., 60 cts.; 5 lbs., $2.90; 10 lbs., $5.75; 100 lbs., $55.00; Bushel of 25 lbs., $13.75 
FARQUHAR’S “BOSTON PARKS” LAWN SEED 
This formula has been used for many years in the Boston Park Department and in the Metropolitan Parks of Massachusetts. It is un- 
questionably one of the best mixtures for parks or where a free-growing, hardy-wearing turf is desired. Sow not less than 75 lbs. per acre and in 
many cases 100 lbs. will be an advantage. Price, 65 cents per lb.; 10 lbs., $6.25; 100 lbs. $60.00. 25 lbs. and upwards at the 100-lb. rate. 
FARQUHAR’S “SHADY PLACE” MIXTURE 
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. 
Sow at rate of one pound to 300 sq. ft. Price per lb., 60 ets.; 5 lbs., 
$2.90; 10 lbs., $5.75; 100 Ibs., $55.00. 
FARQUHAR’S “TERRACE” MIXTURE 
A mixture of strong, deep-rooted Grasses for banks or terraces. Al- 
though the Grasses are strong and deep-rooted, they will produce a fine 
green velvety surface, and also prevent washing away during heavy rains. 
Use one pound to each 300 sq. ft. Price per lb., 60 cts.; 10 lbs., 
$5.75; 100 lbs., $55.00. 
FARQUHAR’S “SEA-SHORE” MIXTURE 
A combination of various dwarf deep-rooted Grasses adapted for 
lawns near the salt water. The seeds should be sown early in the season, 
so that the young plants may be well established before warm weather. 
FARQUHAR’S “FAIRGREEN” 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 vel- 
vety surface which improves from year to year if given proper care. It 
contains no clover, which is objectionable on account of making the sur- 
face slippery. Use about 150 lbs. to the acre. Price per lb., 65 ects.; 
100 Ibs., $60.00; 1000 lbs., $550.00. 
FARQUHAR’S “PUTTING-GREEN” MIXTURE 
The hardiest and finest low-growing Grasses are contained in this 
Mixture. It produces a beautiful and lasting green turf calculated to 
withstand hard tear and wear. Sow one pound to each 200 sq. ft., 75 
to 100 lbs. for the average green. Price per lb., 90 cts.; 10 lbs., $8.50; 
100 lbs., $80.00. 
FARQUHAR’S “TENNIS-COURT” MIXTURE 
A mixture of fine Grasses, consisting of those varieties which are 
adapted to produce a close elastic turf. Use at rate of one pound to 
200 sq. ft. Price per lb., 90 cts.; 10 lbs., $8.50; 100 lbs., $80.00. 
FARQUHAR’S LAWN FERTILIZER 
A strictly high grade fertilizer, highly concentrated, and containing all the elements needed for the perfect development of the lawn. The use 
of Farquhar’s Lawn Fertilizer for top-dressing does away with the practice of covering the lawn with stable manure. It should be sown broad- 
cast in the Spring or Fall, and if possible should be applied in dull weather but if used during warm weather, soak down with a hose afler applying.
