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.; 4 qts., 

 SI. 50; peck, $2.75, prepaid. By express or freight, at purchaser's
