Michell’s Reliable Grass Mixtures 
ADVANTAGES OF SOWING MIXED GRASS SEEDS 
It is a familiar 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 a certain soil, but where there is a combination 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 1 quart to 100 square feet; 1 peck to 1000 
square feet; 1 bushel to 4000 square feet; 6 to 8 bushels per acre on new ground without grass. In 
renovating established lawns, use half the above quantities. 
Send for our booklet, “Lawn Pointers,” for further suggestions on the care of your lawn.
