You too can have a beautiful lawn! 
A beautiful lawn sets off your flowers and enhances the beauty of your garden as nothing else will and is a real 
necessity if you want your house and garden to look its best. Contrary to popular belief it is not difficult to have a 
beautiful lawn, but it does require a little preparation and care. The first and most important thing to do is to use 
good seed. Harris’ Lawn Grass Mixtures are carefully blended of the finest quality grass seeds. Each mixture 
is made up from tested formulas and contains only those grasses best suited to the purpose for which the mixture is 
intended. 
You want your lawn to last for a number of years—sow only the best seed. If you want really good seed we have 
it, but if you want ordinary “Lawn Grass” seed you can get it at the corner store. We do not “load” our grass seed 
mixtures with poor, cheap seed. 
Harris* Superfine Lawn Grass Mixture 
We can confidently state that no better grass seed 
can be purchased 
Composed of the pure seeds of those fine leaved and deep rooted grasses 
which we have found by long experience to be the most desirable and best 
suited for lawns. They are the finest seed of these varieties which can be 
obtained and are all tested for purity and germination before being mixed 
together. None are used which do not come up to the highest standard of 
excellence. These grasses will form a thick fine sod that will stand drought 
well and maintain a deep, soft, green turf for many years. We do not 
“load” our mixtures with cheap, bulky seed or numerous varieties which 
have “high hat” names but little permanent value. 
Our seed is so pure, clean and free from chaff that a bushel weighs 
30 lbs. instead of 20 lbs. which is the usual weight of lawn grass seed. 
The best results are often obtained by sowing the seed quite thick— 
1 lb. or quart on 300 square feet, but if the seed bed has been well pre¬ 
pared sowing one pound on 400 to 500 square feet will make an excellent 
lawn although not quite as quickly. 
1 Lb. 45c; 2 Lbs. 85c; 5 Lbs. $1.95; 10 Lbs. $3.70; 25 Lbs. $8.25; 50 
Lbs. $16.00; 100 Lbs. $30.00. Transportation paid. 
Note—Harris’ Superfine Lawn Grass Mixture contains White 
Dutch Clover which we consider highly desirable in a lawn, as 
the roots penetrate deep into the soil and keep the lawn green 
during very hot weather. We can furnish the seed without White 
Clover, if desired, at the same price. Ask for Harris’ Superfine 
Lawn Grass Seed without clover. 
Special Formula Mixtures 
We will be pleased to supply our grass seeds mixed according to your 
own formula for your particular conditions. As in our regular mixtures 
we use only the best grass seed obtainable. Send us your specifications 
and we will be glad to quote you promptly. 
Harris* English Blend 
A Superior Mixture for Fine Turf 
This blend is designed to make a lawn of thick velvety turf which will 
remain green and attractive throughout the dry summer months. It con¬ 
tains Bent Grass and also the proper proportion of Kent Wild White 
Clover, and will thrive on close cutting. It is also especially fine for large 
expanses of lawn which ordinarily do not get as much care in watering and 
fertilizing as is usually given smaller plots. Wild White Clover which we 
have included in this mixture is so often found in the finest English 
lawns, because of its aggressive habit and ability to blend with the com¬ 
panion grasses. It actually aids their growth on account of the large 
amount of nitrogen it puts in the soil. Do not sow too thick. Use 1 lb. to 
500 or 600 square feet on new seeding. 
1 Lb. 70c; 2 Lbs. $1.30; 5 Lbs. $3.00; 10 Lbs. $5.90; 25 Lbs. $15.00; 
50 Lbs. $27.00; 100 Lbs. $52.00. Transportation paid. 
Bent Grass Mixture 
Specially Blended for Fine Lawns 
With this mixture and a little extra care you can have a pulling green 
on your oxen lawn, equal to the best golf greens. 
This is the mixture for the person who wants a very fine leaved velvety 
lawn and is willing to take the time and trouble to get it. It is comprised 
entirely of seed of the Agrostis species; that is, the best Bent grass varie¬ 
ties together with the finest recleaned Bed Top. These varieties require 
more plant food than ordinary grass to do their best and should therefore 
be sowed on well fertilized soil and the ground enriched by the regular 
application of a good fertilizer. Keep the grass cut short and roll regu¬ 
larly. Fertilize lightly (2 lbs. per 100 sq. ft.) two or three times during 
the season and water copiously. Sow about 1 lb. to 300 sq. ft. 
1 Lb. 85c; 2 Lbs. $1.60; 5 Lbs. $3.85; 10 Lbs. $7.50; 25 Lbs. $18.00; 
50 Lbs. $35.50; 100 Lbs. $70.00. Transportation paid.
