People Admire Rich Green Lawns 
When you buy grass seed for your lawn, be very particular about quality. Poor seed is very expensive. A large proportion 
of it is chaff and dirt, and very often it contains weed seeds that, once in your lawn, will make you endless trouble. Hart & 
Vick’s Grass Seed Mixtures are of very high quality. They contain varieties of domestic and imported grass seeds in correct 
proportions and will make a lawn you will be proud of. 
For a clover lawn you will find our Highland Park Mixture particularly good. If you wish a lawn without clover we recom¬ 
mend our Bent Lawn Grass Mixture. Directions for lawn-making are sent with each lot of seed. 
Highland Park Grass Seed 
MAKES THE FINEST LAWNS 
This mixture has proved its worth by producing beautiful and 
permanent lawns for the city home, country estate, and public park. 
It is a careful blending of varieties of short, fine-leaved grasses and 
a correct percentage of pure white clover, and will make a thick, 
deep-rooted, velvety evergreen sod that will hold the moisture and 
remain fresh and green during the dry season in summer. This is 
our most popular Grass Seed Mixture. It has proved its quality 
not only on the smaller lawn of the city and suburban home, but 
has been and is being used with splendid results in many of the 
city parks, cemeteries, and large estates. Professional landscape 
gardeners specify that they will use Highland Park Grass Seed when 
submitting plans to particular patrons. The name “Highland Park” 
is a symbol of quality. Sow at rate of 1 pound to each 300 square feet 
of new lawn; reseeding 500 square feet of old lawn. Prepaid, lb. 
30c; lb. 55c; 2 lbs. $1; 3 lbs. $1.45; 5 lbs. $2.25; 10 lbs. $4.25. Not

Airport and Fairway Mixture 
Airports and fairways require a strong matted turf that will stand 
hard use. The grasses we use in this mixture are especially suited for 
this purpose. They will make a thick, deep-rooted, closely knit 
sod of tough, fine-leaved grass in a remarkably short time. Not 
prepaid, 25 lbs. $10; 100 lbs. $37.50; 1000 lbs. $350. 
Shady Nook Mixture 
On many lawns there are unsightly bare spots under trees and 
between adjoining houses where it is impossible to get the ordinary 
lawn grass to grow. This mixture is made up of short-growing, 
fine-leaved grasses that will give you an evergreen sod in the most 
densely shaded spots. Often the soil is sour and moss grows in 
such places, which should be treated with lime. Sow at rate of 1 pound 
to each 200 square feet of new lawn; reseeding 350 square feet 
of old lawn. Prepaid, lb. 35c; lb. 65c; 3 lbs. $1.85; 5 lbs. $3; 
10 lbs. $5.75. Not prepaid, 25 lbs. $13.75; 100 lbs. $52.50. 
Terrace Grass Mixture 
Banks and terraces need deep-rooting, very hardy grasses to hold 
them in place. In this special mixture we have combined varieties 
that will quickly form a thick, matted sod that will keep the bank 
from washing in heavy rains, and remain fresh and green all season. 
We recommend sowing grass seed for terraces at the rate of 1 pound 
to each 200 square feet. If the slope is very steep, mix one quart of 
oats with one pound of seed and sow on each 100 square feet. Post¬ 
paid, lb. 30c; lb. 55c; 2 lbs. $1; 3 lbs. $1.45; 5 lbs. $2.25; 10 lbs. 
$4.25. Not prepaid, 25 lbs. $10; 100 lbs. $37.50. 
Rochester, N. Y., is noted all over the country for its fine lawns. 
We point with pride to the fact that our grass seeds have played 
an important part in making these splendid grass-plots.
