Usually it is quite difficult to obtain a 
satisfactory growth of grass under trees and in 
shady places. For sowing in such places we 
recommend the use of this special mixture. 
It will quickly produce an abundant and even 
growth of beautiful green grass. The grasses 
used in making this special mixture are only 
those that are well adapted for growing in 
shade, and _as it blends well with our Druid 
Hill Park Velvet Green Lawn Grass Seed it 
may be used on those portions of the lawn 
which are shaded by trees, buildings, etc., 
thus covering the whole area with a rich 
green sward. 14 Lb. 10c. 6 Lib. 5c. Lb.

increasing demand for this valuable grass seed.

For Putting Greens 
What is needed here is a close, low-growing grass, that will stand a 10t 
of tramping, and will make a springy, tough turf. After thoroughly ex- 
perimenting and scientifically testing, we have formulated a mixture that 
will give the desired results of an ideal putting green. This mixture 
will grow in most any soil. Lb. 45c. 10 Lbs. at 40c. 100 Lbs.
