MICHELL’S RELIABLE GRASS SEED 
Advantages of Sowing Mixed Grass Seeds 
It is a well known fact that a well balanced combination of grasses will give better results than a separate variety. Various 
grasses in mixture will help crowd out weeds. Often a separate variety of seed will not thrive on certain soil, but where there is a corq- 
bination of seeds, one or more varieties in the combination will surely thrive, and our formulas are so well blended that they will give 
very satisfactory results. Liberal and frequent applications are advised, especially on new ground, in order to produce a satisfactory 
velvety lawn, which is always much admired. 
Quantity to Sow for Lawns. We recommend sowing one quart to a space 10 x 10 feet; one peck to 1000 square feet; half 
bushel to 2000 square feet; one bushel to 4000 square feet or 40 x 100 feet; six to eight bushels per acre on new ground without grass; 
for reseeding three to four bushels per acre. For Putting Greens we advise 100 lbs. of seed for greens 100 x 100 feet. For Fairways, 
8 to 10 bushels per acre. For Pasture and Hay Fields, 4 to 5 bushels per acre, based on a 20-pound bushel.

add 20c. per 3^ bu., 30c. per bu. for the above zones if wanted by parcel post; for other zones, see parcel post table
