Wild Garden Mixture 



We have had so many calls for something in 

 flowers that could just be scattered and raked in 

 odd spaces to give a wild-flower-garden effect 

 that we have made up a tall and a dwarf mixture 

 especially for this purpose. These mixtures con- 

 tain a large assortment of the various annual 

 flowers that will grow and bloom with little or 

 no care. 



If possible, the ground should be spaded, the 

 seed scattered and raked in; good results are, 

 however, obtained by scratching the soil as 

 deeply as possible with a steel rake and then 

 scattering the seeds. 



2500 Dwarf Wild Garden Mixture. Pkt. 



ic cts.. oz. 40 cts. 



2501 Tall Wild Garden Mixture. Pkt. 10 cts. 

 oz. 40 cts. 



Evergreen Lawn Seed 



A rich, deep green lawn is necessary to set off 

 flowers to their best advantage. Our lawn seeds 

 are of the finest quality, as we use only the finer 

 leaved grasses in our mixtures and to insure 

 even distribution of all varieties we mix only a 

 small quantity at a time. Full directions for pre- 

 paring new lawns and care of old ones, together 

 with a complete list of mixtures and prices on 

 same will be found on page i of this catalogue. 



All flower seeds are sent postpaid
