HIGH GRADE LAWN GRASS 
WRITE FOR PRICES ON QUANTITIES. We supply grasses for golf courses. Let us figure with you. 
Prices quoted are subject to market change without notice. 
Prices marked postpaid apply up to and including fourth zone* beyond which send additional. 
We specialize in high-grade lawn grass seed. During the past few years we have supplied lawn seed for 
some of the largest institutions in the state. Whether it is a small lawn or a large one* we can supply 
the seed and we will be glad to quote you either on mixtures or separate grasses. Many of the lawn grass 
mixtures on the market contain rye grass seeds. We consider rye grass too coarse and too rapid of growth 
to be included in mixtures and therefore do not use them in our mixtures. In estimating the ground to 
be planted figure on one pound to 300 square feet of surface.
