01 Maule’s Exira Lawn Grass iViixiure 
A Beautiful, Smooth, Low Growing Evergreen Grass for the Yard or Lawn 
This mixture will insure a beautiful, compact, evergreen sod on any 
lawn where the essential requirements of grass culture have been com- 
plied with. Its component parts are the grasses peculiarly adapted 
to lawns and 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. Full provision is made for a succession of growth, so 
that there shall be no break in the richness of the verdure from spring

sss Quick Results Lawn Mixture 
A Rapid Growing Velvety Green Grass 
This mixture is for producing an immediate greensward that will be 
followed by a good, permanent sod. It is especially to be reeommended 
for late spring seeding, without a nurse crop. For early seeding we 
would rather use Maule’s Extra Lawn Grass Mixture, but after May Ist 
(in the latitude of Philadelphia) we would much prefer this one. It will 
make rapid growth, and will be ready to cut two weeks in advance 
of any other mixture which we offer; nor is it lacking in permanence.

386 Maule’s Steep Slope Mixture 
A Lasting Grass for Embankments and Terraces 
This is for banks, terraces, steep or exposed slopes and bare spots in 
general; in fact, for any place, however dry, stony or barren. It will 
produce a sod that is absolutely proof against heat or drought, and that 
cannot be injured by cold. The grasses produce strong, spreading 
roots, thus preventing heavy rains from washing them out; will 
withstand exposure, thrives on shallow soils, and at the same time 
produces a rich, velvety green turf throughout the season.

Maule’s Three Permanent Pasture Mixtures 
Best Adapted for Producing an Abundant Hay Crop or for Pasturage 
It is true beyond all question that a mixture of grasses produces a 
better mowing field and subsequent permanent pasture than a mere 
combination of timothy and red clover. The former will last five times 
as long as the latter. Timothy ‘‘runs out” in a couple of years or so, 
while a good permanent pasture will last ten or even twenty years. 
This has been frequently and forcibly shown by experience. Our com- 
pleted mixtures are sold in two parts, one containing grass seeds and 
the other clover seeds, to be sown separately, on account of their differ- 
ent weights. The grass seeds may be sown in spring or fall; the clover 
seeds preferably in the spring. In preparing the permanent pasture 
grass mixtures we employ mainly Kentucky Blue, Timothy, English 
Rye, Italian Rye, Red Top or Herd, Orchard, Tall Meadow, Meadow 
Foxtail, Meadow Fescue, Tall Fescue, Rough Stalk Meadow, Canadian 
Blue, Bromus Inermis or Awnless Brome, Crested Dog Tail, etc. 
































until autumn, and experience proves that Maule’s Extra Lawn Grass 
Mixture is now perfect. Nothing better can be purchased on the 
American market. Our friends will please note that this seed is sold by 
the bushel of 20 pounds. This is because we employ the choicest and 
heaviest strains of grass seed in making the mixture. For those that 
wish this mixture without white clover we can supply it at the same 
prices but in ordering please mention you want it without clover. 
Grass seed can be sown any time between April and September.
