Grass and Clover Seeds 
Prices Below Apply to First and Second Zones Only. 
We have on hand this year a large stock of choice clean grass and clover 
seeds. We take great care to have only the best grades of seed obtainable, those 
which are plump and of good germination and free from foul weed seeds. While 
inferior grades may be had at cheaper prices, it pays to plant only the best, as the 
results will pay the difference in the first cost many times over. So in the end 
the most expensive grades will be the cheapest to those who plant the seed.
