 Messrs. R. &' J. Farquhar &= Co., Boston, Mass. November ijth, igo7. 



Gentlemen : — / have used your Lawn Grasses for the past eight years and have found them of extra fine quality and entirely free from foul s-rrds. 

 Your Putting Green Mixture is the finest I have ever seen — the greens at Bretton Woods produced from it are unrivalled. 



Yours truly, Q. S. MERRITT, Prof Golfer. 



FARQUHAR'S FAIR GREENS MIXTURE. 



This is composed mainly of perennial native grasses and two very ir-portant European grasses which have proven of great value for Fair-Green 

 use. They are all of dwarf, spreading growth, forming a close velvety surface which improves from year to year if given proper care. It contains no 

 clover, which is objectionable on account of making the surface slippery. If white clover is desired, the quantity sown should not exceed one-half 

 pound per bushel of grass seed. Per lb., 20 cents ; per 100 lbs , at 18 cents per lb. ; per 1,000 lbs., at 16 cents per lb. Sow 50 lbs. per acre. 



THE FOLLOWING SPECIAL GRASS SEED MIXTURES, 

 Quart, 30 cents; by mail, 4S cents; peck, $1.50; per bushel of 20 lbs., $6.00. 



FARQUHAR'S PUTTING=GREEN MIXTURE. 



The hardiest and finest low growing Grasses are contained in this Mi.xture, It produces a beautiful and lasting green turf calculated to withstand 

 hard tear and wear. 



FARQUHAR'S TERRACE MIXTURE. 



A mixture of strong, deep-rooted Grasses for banks or terraces. Although the Grasses are strong and deep-rooted, they will produce a fine green 

 velvety surface, and also prevent washing away during heavy rains. 



FARQUHAR'S MIXTURE FOR SHADY PLACES. 



This is a mixture of extra fine grasses adapted for growing in the shade and under trees. We recommend the use of this mixture wherever 

 other grasses, on account of shade, have failed to make a close sward. 



Mrs. W. V. Chapin, Pomfret, Conn., writes: — "Some grass seed bought of you last spring has been wonderfully fine. I wish you could see 

 my thick, green, grassy walk. 1,200 feet long, under some apple trees. This 'St. Dorothy's ' path is along a stone wall, and hardy perennials are opposite 

 tide from apple trees, and your grass seed made a beautiful path n'en this first year."
