A Beautiful Lawn Made with Dreer's Grass Seeds. 



On pages 6 and 7 of this book we give information and show illustrations of a portion of our exhibits at the Louisiana Purchase Ex- 

 position, St. Louis, 1904, for which we were awarded a Grand Prize and a number of Gold and Silver Medals. An attractive feature 

 of these exhibits was the beautiful green sward in which they were grouped. These lawns were made by sowing the '* Dreer '' Lawn 

 Grass, and w^ere pronounced by experts to be the finest on the exposition grounds. What was done there can easily be duplicated by any 

 one using this special mixture which is offered below It is more satisfactory to make a permanent lawn by using pure grass seeds than with 

 sod, as the latter is generally infested with obnoxious weeds, such as Dandelion, Dock, Plantain, etc.. requiring much labor in removal. 



THE "DREER" EAWN Git ASS. 



For quickly producing a permanent, thick and velvety sward 

 of grass, this brand of L.iwn Grass cannot be excelled. It is 

 the best mixture of grasses we sell for lawn-making, and will 

 give satisfaction wherever sown. The "Dreer" Lawn Grass 

 is a careful blending of fine-growing varieties, each in its proper 

 proportion and thoroughly mixed, so that the result from its 

 planting is a uniform growth of rich green grass, free from 

 coarseness. 25 cts. per qt. ( 30 cts. postpaid); peck, $1.25; 

 bushel (20 lbs.), §5.00. 



DREER'S " EVERGREEN '> EAIVN 

 MIXTURE. 



This special mixture produces beautiful and permanent lawns. 

 It is made from our own formula, ,nnd composed of grasses 

 which are adapted for the purpose of producing turf which re- 

 tains its rich green color and velvety appearance throughout the 

 entire summer and fall. In making up this brand we are care- 

 ful to use seed that has been thoroughly re-cleaned, the light 

 seed and chaff having been blown out, thus securing a strictly 

 high-grade mixture and seed that will grow. 20 cts. per qt. 

 (25 cts. postpaid); peck, $1.00 ; bushel (20 lbs.), §4.00. 



QUANTITY OF SEED TO SOW 

 PER ACRE. 



For the information of those who intend making new lawns, 

 we give below the quantities of seed required per acre, in order 

 to secure good and permanent results; 



For Lawns, Golf Links, Tennis, Cricket, Croquet Grounds, 

 80 lbs.; for Putting Greens and Terraces, 100 lbs. 



DREER'S FAIRMOUNT PARK 

 EAWN MIXTURE. 



While not so good as our "Evcnj^reen," this is better than 

 most mixtures oftercd under the name of "Fairmount Park." 

 It is carefully compounded of grasses which ripen successively, 

 thereby retaining their green appearance. For various soil con- 

 ditions this mixture is well suited, giving good results, even in 

 small city grass ]ilots, where the soil is generally stiff and heavy. 

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

 expo-ed lawns, also for renovating old worn out lawns, and re- 

 seeding bare places. 15 cts. per qt. (20 cts. postpaid); peck, 

 90 cts.; bushel (20 lbs.), 5;3.50. 



Dreer's Shady Place Mixture. 



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. It has been suc- 

 cessfuly used on some large operations where a green sward 

 was desired on land partially shnded by old trees. 25 cts. per 

 qt. (30 cts. postpaid); peck, '$1.2') ; bushel (20 lbs.), §5.00. 



TOBACCO STEMS FOR LAWNS. 



This has become an indispensible lawn covering for winter. 

 It not only acts as a protector, but imparts large quantities of 

 ammonia, and drives away insects and moles, which harbor in 

 a lawn during the winter. Bale of about 250 lbs., §2.00; per 

 ton. S12.00.
