DREER'S 



CELEBRATED LAWN GRASS SEEDS 



Early Fall Is the Best Time to Seed or Re-seed Your Lawn 



At no other time of the year is the weather so equable. There are no un- 

 heralded frosts to prevent the germination of the tiny seeds or to blight the tender 

 young plants; there is little or no likelihood of torrential rains like those of spring, 

 which delay the sowing or re-sowing of the lawn or wash out the seed after it has 

 been sown. 



Sunshine is in abundance, but it is warm and mellow. It does not burn out 

 the new grass like the scorching sun of late spring and summer. Fall grass and 

 crab grass have done their worst for the season and cannot sprout forth unexpect- 

 edly to choke out the finer growth. Summer droughts are almost a full year away 

 and, by that time, the root system of the lawn will be well established. 



By all means, choose this fall to make or re-make your lawn. Ask for 

 leaflet on Lawn Making. 



Note — No cheap annuals, such as Timothy, are included in any of our Lawn Mixtures, for we aim to produce permanent 

 results rather than a quick but temporary effect.

 place, others of a creeping nature quickly fill up any bare spots 

 which may be caused by the taller sorts dying down. Per pt., 25

 of good soil, as grass will not grow well in sand. Per pt., 25 cts.;
