ELLIOTT'S CENTRAL PARK ^or quickly pro- 



ducing a permanent 



thick and velvety sward of grass, this brand of Lawn Grass cannot be 

 excelled. It is the best mixture of grasses sold for lawn-making 

 and will give satisfaction wherever sown. Price, qt. 20c., pk. $1.50, 

 bush, of 20 lbs. $5.00. 



ELLIOTT'S EMERALD ^ carefully compounded 

 01 grasses which ripen suc- 

 cessively, thereby retaining their green appearance. For various 

 soil conditions this mixture is well suited, giving good results, even 

 in small city grass plots, where the soil is generally stiff and heavy. 

 It is also valuable for use on railroad embankments, terraces and 

 exposed lawns, also for renovating old worn-out lawns, and re-seeding 

 bare places. Price, pk. $1.00, bush, of 16 lbs. $4.00. 



Usually it is quite dif- 

 ficult to obtain a satis- 

 factory 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. It has been suc- 

 cessfully used on some large operations where a green sward was de- 

 sired on land partially shaded by old trees. Price, qt. 30c., pk. $1.75, 

 bush, of 20 lbs. $6.00. 



A combina- 

 tion of grass-

 venting washing out by heavy rains, yet producing a rich, velvety

ELLIOTT'S FINEST MIXTURES FOR HAY 

 AND PERMANENT PASTURE 



We prepare special mixtures containing only the most suitable 

 grasses for permanent pastures and meadow lands, such as Orchard 

 Grass, Meadow Foxtail, Sheep's Fescue, Rhode Island Bent, Meadow 

 Fescue, English Rye Grass, Perennial Sweet Vernal and Red Top in 

 such proportions as will insure the most satisfactory results, produc- 

 ing the heaviest possible crops of hay, far superior to seeding with 

 Timothy and Clover alone, and for permanent pastures allowing of 

 the closest grazing without injury. On ordinary fertile soil sow 

 three bushels per acre; where the soil is poor larger quantities are 

 required. Bush. (14 lbs.) $3.00. 



With the above should be sown ten pounds of mixed Clovers 

 per acre. On account of the greater weight of Clovers they should 

 be sown separately and only in the Spring, as they are inclined to 

 Winter-kill unless well estaijlished.
