LAWN AT BRIAR CREST SOWN WITH MAULE'S EXTRA LAWN GRASS MIXTURE. 



Maulers Extra Lawn Grass Mixture 



This mixture will insure a beautiful, compact, evergreen sod on any 

 lawn wliere the essential requirements of grass culture have been com- 

 plied with. Its component parts are the grasses peculiarly adapted to 

 lawns and door yards, including choice selected strains of Kentucky 

 Blue, etc., along with the best known creeping or sod forming 

 sorts. We have Included a little white clover in the mixture, regarding 

 it as essential, but will omit it on special request. Timothy and orchard 

 grass are wholly excluded, on account of their coarse leaves, and only 

 fine sorts are employed. Full provision is made for a succession of 

 growth, so that there shall be no break in the richness of the verdure 

 from spring until autumn, and experience proves that Maule's Extra 

 Lawn Grass Mixture is now perfect. Nothing better can be purchased 

 on the American market, no matter what claims may be advanced by 

 other seedsmen. Our friends will please note that this seed is sold by 

 the bushel of 20 pounds, while some seedsmen sell a bushel weighing 



only 14 pounds. This is because we employ the choicest and heaviest 

 strains of grass seed in making the mixture. As to preparation of the 

 soil, we recommend a thorough working and manuring to a depth of 8 

 or 9 inches, and a regular semi-annual application of top dressing after- 

 ward. It is a good practice to use well-rotted stable manure in the 

 autumn aud a complete fertilizer carrying potash, like Maule"s Pan- 

 mure Plant Food, in the spring; also, to renovate the lawn every spring 

 with a little fresh seed, using a quarter or a third the quantity employed 

 in the original seeding. Grass seed should be sown in April or Sep- 

 tember. Use 1 quart to 800 square feet of ground, or 1 bushel will cow 

 a plot 100 feet wide and 108 feet long or 5 bui?hels per acre. Maule's 

 Extra Lawn Grass Mixture cannot be excelled for quality and vitality.

Avoid buying cheap seeds. Last year I ordered my seeds, 

 as I al\«rays do, and my mother before me, from Maule's. My 

 mother gave her first order the first year of your business, so 

 you see we know what Maule's seeds stand for. 



Mrs. James Carr, Lionville, Chester Co., Pa. 



I ordered some Maule's Extra Lawn grass seed from you. 

 Say, you ought to see it, it made the best lawn I ever saw^. I 

 tried 3 different kinds before I got yours; yours is the best. 

 Wishing you success. John J. Skoweitzka,

Quick Results Lawn Mixture 



This mixture is for producing an immediate greensward that will be 

 followed by a good, permanent sod. It is especially to be recommended 

 for late spring seeding, without a nurse crop. For early seeding we 

 would rather use Maule's Extra Lawn Grass Mixture, but after May 1st 

 (in the latitude of Philadelphia) we would much prefer this one. It will 

 make rapid growth, and will be ready to cut two weeks or more in 

 advance of any other mixture which we offer; nor is it lacking in per- 

 manence. Q,t., 25 cts.; iS qts., 45 cts.; 5 qts., $1.00, postpaid. By 

 express or freight, not prepaid, pk., $1.25; bn. (20 lbs.), $4.50.

Maulers Fair Green Golf Mixture 



This mixture is compounded to produce a tough sod that will resist 

 tramping and hard usage. Year after year we have supplied this seed 

 to the most prominent golf clubs in the country. It is made up mainly 

 of hardy, low growing, creeping grasses, which are not hurt by constant 

 mowing and ceaseless wear. This mixture will produce a rich green 



turf, a turf which asks only for a semi-annual top dressing of fertilizer 

 to last indefinitely. Seed should be applied in liberal amounts; fully 

 75 pounds per acre. Q,aart, 25 cts,; 2 quarts, 45 cts; 5 quarts., $1.00, 

 postpaid. By expi-ess or freight, not prepaid, peck, $1.00; 

 bnshel (20 lbs.~i, $4.00; 5 bushels or more, $3.75 per bushel. 



Maule's Putting Green Golf Mixture 



It Is impossible to have a putting green too much like a piece of vel- 

 vet, and we have been careful iu the preparation of this mixture to select 

 the finest blend and most hardy of the low growing gj-asses and have 

 only to urge upon the owners of golf grounds to see that the putting 

 greens are fertilized twice a year (early spring and late fall) with finely 

 ground bone meal; or (in the autumn) with rotted manure passed 

 through a fine screen. Witl\ s^ proper preparation of tb^ soil in 



advance of growing the seed, and with good after treatment, no better 

 or more beautiful results can possibly be secured than with Maule's 

 Putting Green Golf Mixture. In sowing Putting Greens it is wise econ- 

 omy to sow liberally at the rate of fully 20 pounds to 10,000 square feet.
