Burgess’ Choice Lawn Mixtures 
Many of the lawn troubles would be ended if only clean, 
high grade seed were planted. If you want a beautiful lawn 
that will at all times be green and velvety, don’t waste time 
and money sowing cheap grass seed. We Mix Our Own Lawn 
Grasses. We Do Not Use Timothy or White Clover in any of 
Our Mixtures. Beware of Mixtures that contain Timothy. 
Timothy is not a desirable lawn grass, but is used extensively 
in cheap mixtures, on account of its low price.

Burgess’ Creeping Bent Grass Mixture 
The Lawn Grass Which Discourages Weeds 
This is the most popular grass for golf courses and it is rapidly gaining in favor as a lawn 
grass, for the reason it likes an acid soil and can be fed with acid reacting fertilizers, such as 
our '‘Soil-Vitamines” brand, the constant use of which discourages weeds. 
Bent Grass makes soft, beautiful, permanent lawns, and makes a sod that is wonderful for 
terraces. Rain cannot wash tiny ditches in your terrace; neither will your sidewalks or drive¬ 
ways be covered with dirt if you use Bent Grass on your lawn and terraces. Our Creeping Bent 
is a mixture, including True Creeping Bent, Velvet Bent and Rhode Island Bent. It is the 
best Bent Grass obtainable, and we consider that we are fortunate in being able to supply our

FERTILIZE As You Sprinkle 
Without “Burning” the Lawn

and all fertilizers and plant foods to lawns, gardens, trees and shrubs. The easy, rapid, safe 1

food. Simple to operate. Merely put any fertilizer in a bucket. 
Fill the bucket with water. Attach nozzle to garden hose. Drop 
suction tube into bucket of fertilizer solution and turn on the water. 
The JECTOR does the rest. Action is visible at all times; operation 
is continuous; no water to he shut off, jars or tanks to be opened and 
frequently re-filled this modern way. The only device that can be 
instantly changed to discharge either fertilizing solution or clear 
water for rinsing or washing down.
