Dreer's Special Mixtures of Grasses for Pleasure 

 Grounds, Golf Links, Etc. 



AWARDED GOLD MEDAL at the Pan-American Exposition, Buffalo, N. Y., 1901, for Quality, Purity, Cleanliness and 



Permanent Results. 



There is no use to which a lawn is put that is so exacting 

 as that used for Pleasure Grounds, Golf Links, etc. No 

 other turf is required to stand such wear and rough usage ; 

 hence the necessity of sowing such Grasses as will produce 

 a thick and healthy growth. We have devoted much time 

 to experimenting, in order to produce the correct mixtures, 

 such as will quickly produce a rich green turf, and in pre- 

 senting the two brands mentioned below we offer the very 

 best mixtures of Grasses that can be used for the purpose. 

 Athletic clubs, and others who contemplate making new 

 turf, should write to us stating the area of ground, nature of 

 soil in which seed is to be sown, also the purpose for which 

 the Grass is to be used, and we will be pleased to advise as 

 to the best mixture and quantity of seed needed for the pur- 

 pose, also the cost of same. 



Dreer's Putting Green Mixture. 



A careful study of the requirements for making the most 

 substantial turf for Putting Greens developed the mixture 

 herewith offered by us for this purpose. It has given thor- 

 ough satisfaction 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, and will maintain their rich velvety green color 

 throughout the season. We also recommend this prepara- 

 tion for terraces, embankments and steep slopes. Per peck, 

 $1.25; bu. (20 lbs.), $5.00 



Dreer's Golf Links Mixture. 



Made from our own formula with the object of producing a 

 turf which will stand rough usage. For Bowling Greens, 

 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 

 used on the grounds of the Belmont and Manheim Cricket 

 Clubs and many leading Golf Links of the country. Peck, 

 75 cts.; bu.,(15 lbs.), $2.50; 10 bushels and upwards, $2.25

 tory. If your fields are old and worn out, it will pay to plow

 from Dreer's Permanent Pasture Mixture. You will be able to

 can cut but one. Sow 50 pounds to acre. In ordering state
