Grass Seeds for Lawn and Pleasure Grounds. 



Dreer's "Evergreen" Mixture. 



This special mixture is made from our own formula, and com- 

 posed of grasses which are especially adapted for the purpose 

 of producing lawns which retain their rich green color and 

 velvety appearance throughout the entire Summer and Fall. It 

 is valuable alike for the formation of iavvns in places exposed to 

 the sun, and also to partially shaded situations where it is diffi- 

 cult to produce good sod. 25 cts. per qt. (30 cts. postpaid) ; 

 peck $1.25; bushel (20 lbs.) $4.00. 



Dreer's Fairmount Park Mixture. 



While not so good as our " Evergreen," this is better than 

 most mixtures offered 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 plots, where the soil is generally stiff and heavy. 

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

 and exposed lawns, also for renovating old worn-out lawns, and 

 reseeding bare places which appear during the Summer. 20 cts. 

 per qt. (25 cts. postpaid); peck §1.00; bushel (20 lbs.) §3.50. 



Dreer's Golf Links Mixture. 



Made from our own formula with the object of producing a 

 turf which will stand rough usage. For Cricket Tables, Golf 

 Links, Polo Grounds, or wherever a good sward is wanted, this 

 seed will give perfect satisfaction. We believe the Golf Links 

 of the future will be as fine as a velvety lawn, hence the need of 

 a first-class mixture. This brand is Ui^ed on the grounds of the 

 Merion, Belmont and Manheim Cricket Clubs, and the leading 

 Golf Links of the country. Peck, 75 cts.; bushel (15 lbs.), 

 §2.50; 10 bushels and upwards, §2.25 per bushel. 



Dreer's Putting Green Mixture. 



.\ careful study of the requirements for making the most sub- 

 stantial turf for Putting Greens developed the mixture herewith 

 offered by us for this purpose. It has given thorough satisfac- 

 tion wherever used, and produces a thick, tough, beautiful green 

 turf. The varieties comprising this mixture are all the finest 

 bladed, low-growing and most hardy kinds. We also recom- 

 mend this preparation for terraces and embankments. Per qt. 

 25 cts.; 30 cts. postpaid; peck §1 TiO ; bushel (20 lbs.) §5.00.
