Evergreen Lawn Grass Seed 



AN EXTRA CHOICE MIXTURE 



In making a new lawn, it is 

 desirable that all tree planting 

 and laying out of flower beds 

 should be accomplished first. 

 The ground should then be thor- 

 oughly dug or plowed to the 

 depth of 10 to 12 inches, using 

 liberally well-decomposed man- 

 ure or "fertilizers." It is also 

 essential for a fine lawn to have 

 proper drainage, a careful prepa- 

 ration of the soil, through roll- 

 ing and a selection of the seeds 

 of such grasses as will present a 

 luxuriant verdure from early 

 spring till late in autumn; and 

 the frequent mowings with a 

 'awn mower. However much care 

 is bestowed on the soil and seed, 

 no lawn will be beautiful without 

 frequent mowing and rolling. We 

 have given much thonHit, and 

 many experiments to secure the 

 best mixture, and think what we 

 offer is the best possible mixture 



for permanent lawns, resisting 

 the severe droughts of our cli- 

 mate better than any other. It may be sown very early in spring or fall, and should be sown at the 

 rate of from 3 to 4 bushels per acre. One pound is sufficient to thoroughly sow 800 square feet of 

 ground. It should be borne in mind that, in order to produce the best results, grass seeds for lawns 

 should be sown at least twice as thickly as if sown for hay. Per lb. 45 cts. ; 3 lbs. $1.30, pk. $1.50; 

 bu. $5.50.
