Bent Grass Mixture 
To meet the demand for a superior grass seed mixture, we have com¬ 
bined in this formula the seeds of grasses that not only produce the 
finest leaf-blades, but varieties that creep, mat together and make a 
soft, luxuriant, evergreen turf the entire season. When preparing the 
soil for this Grass Seed Mixture, we recommend the use of bone meal 
(100 pounds to every 500 square feet) well worked into the soil before 
the seed is sown. After the grass is up apply sulphate of ammonia 
(1 pound dissolved in 10 gallons of water to every 100 square feet). 
Sow seed at the rate of 1 pound to every 250 square feet. >A lb. 45c; 
lb. 85c; 3 lbs. $2.45; 5 lbs. $4; 10 lbs. $7.75; 25 lbs. $18.75; 100 lbs. 
$72.50. Delivered, transportation paid.
