50 MICHELL’S RECLEANED GRASS SEEDS 
Our connections with the best grass seed pro¬ 
ducers in America and Europe place us in a posi¬ 
tion of advantage for our supplies, chiefly because 
of the great volume of grass seeds we contract for. 
Some people have an idea that price is the only 
factor to consider in grass seed buying; while this 
has its place, it should be an afterthought. “Qual¬ 
ity is paramount.” We are always pleased to sub¬ 
mit samples with prices for comparison and let our 
customers be the judge. 
QUANTITY OF LAWN SEED 
REQUIRED FOR A 
GIVEN SPACE 
To secure best results we advise sowing on 
new ground with no sod on, 6 to 8 bushels (20 lbs. 
per bushel) to an acre; on established lawns or 
grass plots usually one half the quantity is suffi¬ 
cient. On a smaller scale, 1 quart for 100 square 
feet; 1 peck for 1000 square feet; 1 bushel for 4000 
square feet; for putting greens we advise 100 lbs. 
of seed to a green 100 x 100 feet; for fairways 8 to 
10 bushels (20 lbs. per bu.) to the acre; for pastures 
and hayfields 80 to 100 lbs. per acre.
