HENRY A. DREER, PHILADELPHIA— LAWN AND FIELD SEEDS 



DREER'S CELEBRATED LAWN GRASS SEEDS 



OUR special brands of Lawn Grass Seeds are noted for their adaptability to various situations and soil conditions, and are now used 

 in every section of the country for making private lawns, and also on the grounds of many leading Country Clubs, Athletic Clubs, 

 Schools and Institutions, etc. These Mixtures have long enjoyed an enviable reputation for their general excellence, and it will always 

 be our aim to maintain their high quality by the use of only the finest recleaned Grass Seeds, as free from all impurities as the most 

 modern machinery can make them. Quantity of Lawn Grass Seed to Sow. One quart is sufficient for 200 square feet; 6 bushels 

 for an acre, or for renovating an old lawn use one-half these quantities. 



The "Dreer" Lawn 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 

 producing 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. Per pt., 30 cts.; per qt., 50 cts.; 

 postpaid. By express or freight at purchaser's expense, per pt., 

 25 cts.; qt., 45 cts.; 4 qts., $1.50; peck, $2.75; bushel (20 lbs.), 

 $10.00; 100 lbs., $47.50. 



Dreer's Shady Place 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 those 

 that are well adapted for growing in shade, and as it blends 

 well with our regular Lawn Grass Mixture, it may be used on 

 those portions of the lawn which are shaded by trees, buildings, 

 etc., thus covering the whole area with a rich green sward. In 

 spring give a light reseeding, then a top dressing of finely 

 screened soil or sand, together with Bone Meal. This will 

 repair the damage done by the winter rains. Per pt., 30 cts.;
