Dreer's New Improved 



Note the extra heavy bushel weights of the Dreer Lawn Grass Mixtures. These are due to careful 

 recleaning of all grass seed varieties that combine into the various formulas. This is of the greatest im- 

 portance to ever>' gardener because it simply means that every pint, quart, peck, etc., contains so much 

 more virile and heavy seeds that contribute to a perfect stand. 



The Essentials of 



a Perfect Lawn 



No other factor is as important 

 in establishing a new lawn as the 

 quality of the seed. Cheap lawn 

 grass mixtures invariably will re- 

 sult in disappointment. They al- 

 ways are light in weight which 

 means that they contain much 

 worthless chaff. 



They usually weigh but 7 or 8 

 ounces per quart. Compare this 

 weight with the Dreer Im- 

 proved Mixtures of 12 J ounces 

 per quart and you will realize that 

 the cheap mixtures, though appar- 

 ently low in price, are decidedly 

 expensive. Sometimes the weight 

 of cheap mixtures is brought up by 

 the use of Timothy seed which is an 

 annual pasture or hay grass and has 

 no placein a good lawn grass mixture. 

 The best of care in preparing the 

 soil and adding fertilizer, humus, 

 etc. cannot overcome the handicap 

 of cheap seed. We therefore urge 

 you to select Dreer's New Improved 

 Lawn Grass Mixtures because we 

 know that they will give you the 

 best results. 



As all good lawn grasses are per- 

 majient, enrich your soil with plant 

 food or fertilizer also adding humus 

 or peat moss to improve its physical 

 condition. Thoroughly pulverize 

 the soil to effect an even distribu- 

 tion. Sow one quart of seed to every 

 200 square feet (IC x20 feet) or 6 

 bushels to the acre. 



"The Dreer" Lawn Grass 



An Unequalled Mixture for a Beautiful Lawn 



"The Dreer" Lawn Grass will give you a rich green, smooth, velvety sod of fine texture 

 altogether free from grasses which are inclined to produce clumps or knots. Such a lawn is 

 bound to give to your home ground a beautiful rich green setting that cannot be achieved 

 in any other way. All grasses included in this mixture are permanent, fine bladed, and of a 

 rich deep green color. They are strictly lawn grasses. Every variety of grass in this mixture 

 is included to serve a specific purpose. The strong fibrous roots of certain ones take a good 

 hold of the soil and contribute considerably toward the permanence of the sod. Other 

 grasses in the mixture are of a creeping habit. They are most essential as they quickly 

 cover the entire surface and weave the sod into a carpet of rich green. Yet there are other 

 grasses that help the density and protect the lawn against rain damage and undue wear. 

 "The Dreer" Lawn Grass weighs 25 lbs. per measured bushel.
