BOSTON QUALITY 
LAWN SEED 
What is more attractive than a well-designed 
house surrounded by artistically treated grounds 
and a beautiful lawn, the rich, green, velvety turf 
being always the most attractive? 
You can make your lawn by using sod or sowing 
seed. If sods are used you may have your lawn 
[juicker, but it is not to be compared to the one 
sown by seed, as the dry weather causes creases to 
form, about which the grass dies out, and the grasses 
in the sod usually found in the pastures or on the 
roadsides, and which is generally the kind used, 
are not the sort to make a smooth turf on a lawn. 
Use the “Boston Quality Lawn Seed.” It is 
not the work of a novice to select varieties of 
grasses that will produce a lawn for all situations, 
but he must be a person of long experience anil 
thorough knowledge of the growth of grasses that 
will make a good turf. 1 ou will find the “Boston Quality Lawn Seed” one that meets the require¬ 
ments. It is composed of such grasses that made a good turf, carefully blended together in such proportions as 
will produce a good lawn when properly prepared and will grow under varied conditions, soils and climates and 
at different seasons of the year. Here is the advantage of the ‘‘Boston Quality Lawn Seed.”
