DREER'S 



CELEBRATED LAWN GRASS SEEDS 



OUR special brands of Lawn Grass Seeds are noted for their adaptability to various situations and soil conditions, ^and are now 

 used in every section of the country for making private lawns, and also on the grounds of many leading Country Clubs, Athletic 

 Clubs, Golf Links, etc. The lawns at the Alaska- Yukon-Paciflc Exposition, held during the summer of 1909, were made 

 with "Dreer's Lawn Grass," and we were awarded a Gold Medal for same. Many other prizes have been awarded us for Grass Seeds, 

 including Gold Medal by the Pan-American Exposition, held at Buffalo, N. Y. 



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 mixture. 

 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 required for 

 seeding large lawns where from five to six bushels of seed to 

 the acre are required. Per qt., 40 cts., postpaid. By express or 

 freight, at purchaser's expense, qt., 35 cts.; 4 qts., $1.25; peck, 

 S2.25; bushel (20 lbs.), S8.00. 



DREER'S SHADY PLACE GRASS 



Usually it is quite difficult to obtain a sarisfactory 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., 

 40 cts., postpaid. By express or freight, at purchaser's expense, 

 qt., 35 cts.; 4 qts., SI. 25; peck, S2.25; bushel (20 lbs.), S8.00. 



DREER'S TERRACE GRASS 



Ordinarj' lawn grass will not hold the soil on terraces and 

 embankments, which require a thick turf, composed of varieties 

 which make strong roots to take hold of the soil and prevent 

 washing bj- hea\'y rains. Our Terrace Grass is a carefully pre- 

 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 anywhere, but 

 it is best to enrich the soil, in order to provide nourishment to the 

 young roots and give a vigorous start to their growth. Per qt., 

 40 cts., postpaid. By express or freight, at purchaser's expense, 

 qt., 35cts.; 4 qts.. SI. 25; peck, S2. 25; bushel (20 lbs.), S8.00. 



SEASHORE LAWN GRASS 



A rich, green lawn is especiallj' 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 pre- 

 paring 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 the top-soil and make strong roots, which 

 reach down into the sand for moisture. In order to keep the sea- 

 side lawn in good condition it should be watered UberaUy every 

 everdng, and also have an occasional application of pure Bone 

 Meal in order to keep up a vigorous growth. Per qt., 40 cts., 

 postpaid. By express or freight, at purchaser's expense, qt., 

 35 cts.; 4qts., S1.25; peck, S2. 25; bu5hel(20 lbs.). S8.00.
