LAWNS MADE IN THE FALL 



Spring, as the conditions are ideal fdr quirk germina- 

 tion of seed, and grass will make deeper roots and 

 more healthy growth, besides there is less danger of heing winter-killed than there is of spring-sown grass being killed by the extreme 

 heat of Summer. We advise all who contemplate making a new lawn, or renewing the old, to do the work this Fall, as the grass will 

 become well established before freezing weather, and start a luxuriant growth with the warmth of early Spring. 



Quantity of Lawn Grass Seed to Sow. One quart is sufiicient for 200 sciuare feet; 6 bushels for an acre, or for renovating 

 an old lawn use one half these C|uaiititics. 



The "Dreer" Lawn Grass Dreer's Terrace Grass 



This is by far our best mixture of gra.sses offered fur the pur- 

 pose 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.: qt., 50 cts., postpaid. By 

 express or freight, at purchaser's expense, pt., 25 cts.: qt., 45 cts.: 

 4 qts.. SI. 50: peck. ?2. 75: bushel (20 IIjs.), SlO.OO.

Ordinarj' lawn grass will not hold the soil on terraces and em- 

 bankments, which require a thick turf, composed of varieties which 

 make strong roots to take hold of the soil and prevent washing by 

 heavy rains. Our Terrace Grass is a carefully prepared com- 

 bi'aation of creeping rooted grasses as will till the requirements by 

 making a quick growth of grass which will form a strong mat and 

 present a good appearance. It will grow well anywhere, but it is 

 best to enrich the soil, in order to provide nourishment to the 

 young roots and give a vigorous start to their growth. Per 

 pt., 30 cts.; qt., 50 cts., postpaid. By express or freight, at pur- 

 chaser's expense, pt., 25 cts.; qt., 45 cts.; 4 qts., $1.50; peck, $2.75;

Seashore Law^n Grass 



A rich, green lawn is especially desirable at the seashore, but 

 unless the right mbctuie of grasses and clover are used the result 

 will be disappointing. Our Seashore Lawn Gra.ss is composed of 

 strong rooted varieties which quickly produce a good turf. In pre- 

 paring the land it should first be top-dressed with about four inches 

 of good soil, as grass will not grow well in sand, but the seeds will 

 quickly germinate in the top soil and make strong roots, which 

 reach down into the sand for moisture. In order to keep the sea- 

 side lawn in good condition it should be watered liberally every 

 evening and also have an occasional application of pure Bone 

 Meal in order to keep up a vigorous growth. Per pt., 30 cts.; 

 qt., 50 cts., postpaid. By express or freight, at purchaser's ex- 

 pense, pt., 25 cts.; qt., 45 cts.; 4 qts., $1.50; peck, $2.75; bu.shel 

 (20 lbs), SlO.OO.

 The grasses used in making this special mixture are only those 

 that are well adapted for growing in shade. Per pt., 30 cts.; qt., 

 50 cts., postpaid. By express or freight, at purchaser's expense, 

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