OyiK of the most essential parts of the country place and suburban home is a carefully made and well kept lawn. No trouble 

 should be spared in its making, as much of the future results depend upon the start or foundation of the lawn, which, i( 

 correctly made, can easily be kept in perfect condition for years, and give pleasure not only to the owner, but to others who 

 see it. In seeding for lawn-making, care should be taken that a well-balanced mixture of grasses is used, one composed of such 

 varieties as will blend together well and also ripen successively, thus securing a healthy and beautiful color throughout the summer 

 The Dreer Brands of Lawn Grass are noted for their reliability, and will give satisfaction wherever used. There is no purpose foi 

 which a thoroughly reliable turf is more necessary than the Professional Base Ball Field. The illustration above shows the grounds 

 at Shibe Park, Philadelphia, the Home of the "Athletics," World's Base Ball Champions, which were sown and kept in perfect 

 condition the whole summer long with Dreer's Lawn Grass Seeds. The lawns also at the Alaska=Yukon=Pacific Exposition, 

 held during the summer of 1909, were made with "Dreer Lawn Grass," and we were awarded a Gold Medal for same. Many 

 other prizes have been awarded us for Grass seeds, including a Gold Medal by the Pan=Ainerican Exposition, held at Buffalo 

 N. Y., in 1901; but what is most satisfactory to us is the fact that they always give satisfactory results to our customers wherever sown 



THE "DREER" I^AIVN GRASS. 



This is by far the best mixture of grasses offered for the purpose 

 of quickly producing a permanent lawn. It is prepared from our 

 own formula, and is a careful blending of varieties adapted to pro- 

 ducing 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 the seed up in various- 

 size packages, from the single quart, which is sufficient to cover 

 300 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 quart, 30 cts. (postpaid, 35 cts. ) ; 

 2 qts., 50 cts. (postpaid, 60 cts.); 4 qts., 80 cts.; peck, $1.25; 

 bushel, 15.00. 



QUANTITY OF SEED TO SOW. 



One quart of our Lawn Grass seed will sow 15 x 20 feet, or 

 300 square feet. Five to six bushels should be sown to the 

 acre. The larger quantity gives the best results. For renovating 

 use one-half of this quantity. 



DREER'S SHADY PEACE 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 thosf 

 that are well adapted for growing in shade. 35 cts. per qt 

 (40 cts. postpaid); peck, $150; bushel, $6.00. 



DREER'S "EVERGREEN »» EAWN 

 GRASS. 



This special mixture produces beautiful and permanent lawns. 

 It is made from our own formula, and 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 careful 

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

 and chaff having been blown out. 25 cts. per qt. (30 cts. post- 

 paid); peck, $1.15; bushel, $4.50. 



DREER'S FAIRMOUNT PARK 

 EAUVN GRASS.

 embankments, terraces and exposed lawns, also for renovating 

 old worn-out lawns and re-seeding bare places. 20 cts. per qt.
