TOUGH TURF 



For Tennis Courts, Croquet Grounds, Bowling 

 Greens, etc. 



The turf required for outdoor sport? must be closely interwoven, 

 firm, elastic, smooth, and durable to stand the wear and tear. These 

 requirements are met in this mixture, which is composed of fibrous, 

 deep-rooting Grasses that spread and intermingle. The seeds are 

 blended in the proper proportions to form and maintain a tough 

 matted sward, constantly green, even in dry weather. These varieties 

 of Grasses, being low-growing and fine-leaved, require to be sown 

 liberally if a playing turf is desired quickly; not less than one pound 

 should be used for 200 square feet, or 100 to 150 lbs. per acre, although 

 50 per cent more may be used with advantage. Half that quantity 

 will do for renovating. This mixture has been used with great success 

 at the Rumson Polo Fields, also at the Forest Hills Tennis Courts, 

 the great sport centers for Tennis, and numerous other playing fields.

SEASIDE 



Our "Seaside" mixture will make a good turf of green on sand where 

 the finer Grasses will not thrive, though, of course, the sand must be 

 top-dressed with not less than 2 inches of soil before even our "Sea- 

 side" Grass Seed is sown, to enable the young Grass to get a start, 

 after which the long roots — peculiar to the varieties we used in this 

 mixture — drive down deeply in the sand and remain permanentlv 

 self-sustaining, if attention is given to sprinkling during dry weather. 

 Sow seed at the rate of 1 lb. for 200 sq. ft.; 5 lbs. for 1,000 sq. ft.

SHADY NOOK 



The Ideal Grass Seed Mixture 

 for Shaded Areas 



On nearlv all lawns there are unsightlv bare spots under the shade 

 of trees, which have baffled all efforts "to get into Grass, but with 

 this mixture there need be no further difficulty. It is a combination 

 of fine, dwarf growing, evergreen varieties, which in their wild or 

 natural state are to be found growing in the woods or other sheltered 

 and shaded spots. Ground that has been densely shaded by trees is 

 frequently "sour," and if the drainage is defective it is apt to be 

 covered with moss and coarse Grasses. In such cases an application 

 of slaked lime, at the rate of one hundred pounds to each thousand 

 square feet, or two tons to the acre, is an excellent corrective and 

 sweetener, but the moss should be first raked off. Sow seed at the 

 rate of 1 lb. for 200 sq. ft.; 5 lbs. for 1,000 sq. ft. 



Price, ^ lb., 40c; lb., 75c; 3 lbs., $2.20; 5 lbs., $3.50; 

 10 lbs., $6~.50; 25 lbs., $16.00; 100 lbs., $60.00 



WHITE CLOVER 



An excellent clover for lawns, makes a close, compact growth, 

 covering the ground like a carpet. It also prevents the washing 

 out of soil during heavy rains. Thrives well on all soils.

 ovate an old one. 



SPECIAL "BENT FORMULA" 



It Makes Every Lawn Like a Putting Green 



A combination of the finest recleaned Grasses, using as a basis for 

 this mixture the imported and domestic Bent Grasses which are so 

 largely used in the finer Putting Gieens of today. 



A lawn seeded with this mixture and properly cared for will in 

 truth make every lawn a Putting Green. On a lawn of this type. 

 Clock Golf and other lawn games may be enjoyably played. 



It is imperative in maintaining a lawn of this type, that the grass 

 should be kept cut short and well rolled all through the season. Starva- 

 tion of the grass plants is the most frequent cause of unsatisfactory 

 lawns, and grass needs constant small applications of fertilizer and 

 plenty of water to maintain a perfect lawn. 



We advise seeding at the rate of one pound to cover a space of 

 10 x 20 or 200 square feet. 



Price, \£ lb., 50c; lb., 90c; 5 lbs., $4.25; 10 lbs., $8.25; 

 25 lbs., $20.00; 100 lbs., $75.00.

 Grasses that are by nature adapted for hot, dry situations. By using 

 this mixture, and with some care and attention to watering, an all- 

 the-year-round lawn can be maintained in Southern States where 

 Grasses do not usuallv thrive. Sow seed at the rate of 1 lb. for 200 

 sq. ft.; 5 lbs. for 1,000 sq. ft.
