Special Grass Mixtures For 
Meadows and Pastures 
We have many inquiries from those who have been led to buy ready-made 
mixtures, or made experiments of their own, and have found that certain va¬ 
rieties of grass will do better than others on their land. As it is nearly 
impossible to make a mixture that will be satisfactory until the location, 
condition of soil, and purpose for which wanted are known, we shall be 
pleased to have our customers consult with us regarding varieties suitable 
for their particular land; or, if they have certain varieties to include in their 
mixture, we are only too pleased to serve them in this way, for we have, on 
pages 61 to 63, a very complete list of fancy varieties of grasses and clovers, 
of which we always carry a large stock, and will put up any mixture desired. 
We have facilities for executing all such orders promptly. 
Remember we deliver free at catalogue prices—except where noted. Write for special prices in large quantities.
