Tbe lawns at the Alaska=Yukon=Pacific Exposition, held during the sum-

Many other prizes have

THE “DREER” LAWN GRASS 
This is by far the best mixture of grasses offered for the pur- 
_ pose of quickly producing a permanent lawn. It is prepared 
from our own formula, and is a careful blending of varieties 
adapted to producing the thick growth and velvety appearance 
so much sought after. Each variety of grass in its composition 
is there for a special purpose; some for making strong fibrous 
roots, which take hold upon the soil and keep the turf in place, 
others of a creeping nature quickly fill up any bare spots which 
may be caused by the taller sorts dying down; varieties which 
are useful for their color value, and also kinds that are able to 
withstand the beating down of excessive rains. 
Whether you want to seed a small grass plot in your yard, or 
a lawn of more pretentious size, you should use this grass mix- 
ture. For the convenience of customers, we put this seed up in 
various-sized packages, from the single quart, which is sufficient 
to cover 250 square feet of ground, to such quantities as are re- 
_ quired for seeding large lawns, where from five to six bushels 
_ of seed to the acre are required. Per qt., 35 cts., postpaid. 
_ By express or freight, at purchaser’s expense, qt., 30 cts.; 4 
 qts., $1.00; peck, $1.50; bushel (20 Ibs.), $6.00. 
DREER’S SHADY PLACE GRASS 
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 regular Lawn Grass mixture, 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. Per qt., 35 cts., postpaid. By express or freight,

_ pared combination of such grasses as will fill the requirements 
__ by making a quick growth of grass which will form a strong 
mat and present a good appearance. It will grow well any- 
_ where, but it is best to enrich the soil, in order to provide nour- 
_ ishment to the young roots and give a vigorous start to their 
_ growth. Per qt., 35 cts., postpaid, By express or freight, at

SEASHORE LAWN GRASS 
A rich, green lawn is especially desirable at the seashore, but 
‘unless the right mixture of grasses and clover are used the result 
_ will be disappointing. Our Seashore Lawn Grass is composed 
of strong-rooted varieties which quickly produce a good turf. In 
_ preparing the land it should first be top-dressed with about four 
inches of good soil, as grass will not grow well in sand, but the 
seeds will quickly germinate in tho top-soil and make strong 
_ roots, which reach down into the sand for moisture. In order 
__ to keep the seaside lawn in good condition it should be watered 
liberally every evening, and also have an occasional applica- 
tion of pure Bone Meal in order to keep up a vigorous growth.
