R. & J. Farquhar & Co., Boston, Mass. Weld Garden, Brookline, December 7. 
Gentlemen:—It gives me great pleasure to inform you of the good results I have had with your Lawn Grass Seeds. 
I have used them extensively, not only in Massachusetts but in Washington, D. C., and in St. Louis, Mo., at both of which places 
there is difficulty in getting good Lawns, and where the successful results from your seeds have been remarkable. 
The Weld Garden in Brookline which has been so frequently described and illustrated in the leading periodicals of the country affords 
the very best evidence of the high quality, purity and permanence of your Lawn Grasses. 
Your Mixtures for various situations and for different parts of the country, I consider especially valuable. 
Yours truly, Duncan Finlayson.

We received from Messrs. Olmsted, Olmsted & Eliot their formula used in seeding the beautiful lawns of Boston’s new parks. 
Franklin Park and the Metropolitan parks were planned by this firm of eminent landscape architects, and their formula may be 
accepted as the best which experience can suggest for park lawns. 
Sow at the rate of 64 lbs. per acre. Price, 30 cents per Ib.; by mail, 40 cents; 
10 Ibs., 2.75; 100 Ibs., 25.00; 25 Ibs. and upwards at the 100 Ib. rate.

nice green lawn. I recommend it toany one who desires to get a satisfactory lawn.”’
