IDEAL LAWN FORMULA 
An Unequalled Mixture for a Beautiful Lawn 
Quickly produces a permanent lawn of deep green lasting 
quality. The grasses in this mixture begin to mat into a turf 
carpet as soon as cutting begins. We recommend this formula 
for average soil in full sun or semi-shade. Only thoroughly 
cleaned seed is used, giving a mixture practically free of weed 
seed, inert matter, and chaff. Weight about 30 to 32 lbs. 
per bushel. 
Lb., 75c; 5 Ibs., $3.00; 25 Ibs., $14.00; 100 Ibs., $50.00. 
SHADY LAWN FORMULA 
Gives a Velvety Smooth Sod 
A mixture especially prepared to produce a heavy matted, 
deep green turf on areas where there is very little direct sun- 
light or only filtered sun is present. Turf is established quickly 
and permanently but care must be taken to prevent shaded 
soils from becoming too acid. Applications of agricultural lime 
in the late fall or early spring will greatly aid turf develop- 
ment. 
Lb., 85c; 5 lbs., $3.50; 25 lbs., $16.00; 100 lbs., $60.00. 
PUTTING GREEN MIXTURE 
Withstands Hard Usage 
A blend of bent grass and red top which gives a matted 
turf that will stand close cutting and an even textured 
smooth surface. 
10 Ibs., $12.00; 100 Ibs., $100.00. 
SPECIAL SUNNY MIXTURE

tion. This formula will grow well under average soil con- 
ditions.

Individual Grass Seed Varieties 
Prices subject to change without notice 
Canada Blue Grass. Hardy grass suited for all poor soils. 
Stands excessive moisture or drought. 
Lb., 75c; 10 lbs., $7.00; 100 Ibs., $56.00. 
Chewing’s Fescue (Festuca rubra) is able to give a satisfactory 
growth to acid soil, on the poorer dry soils and under shady 
conditions. The plants grow low and are inclined to be 
bunchy if a dense turf is not maintained. 
Lb., $1.10; 10 lbs., $9.50; 100 Ibs., $80.00. 
Colonial Bent (Agrostis tenuis) is aggressive on all but the 
poorest soils and is a desirable grass for mixtures on acid 
soils with adequate moisture, as normally occurs in the New 
England States. 
Lb., $1.60; 10 Ibs., $14.50; 100 Ibs., $135.00. 
Kent Wild White Clover. For all soils, dwarf growing, suitable 
for sunny lawns and terraces, and also fine for pasture. 
Lb., $3.00; 10 Ibs., $27.50. 
Kentucky Blue Grass (Poa pratensis) is one of the best 
grasses for lawns in the temperate areas where growth 
begins early in the spring and the color is maintained late 
in the fall. It is very aggressive in this climate and thrives 
on loamy soils which are medium to good in fertility and 
alkaline to slightly acid in reaction. 
Superfine, Ib., 70c; 10 lbs., $6.00; 100 Ibs., $50.00. 
Piper Velvet Bent. Almost immune from Brown Patch. Pro- 
duces the finest and closest turf and contains the largest 
aw 
one Shi 
ae x ART 
. 
i 
percentage of Velvet Bent. Especially suited for acid soils 
or shady paces. 
Lb., $10.00; 10 Ibs., $95.00. 
Rough Stalk Meadow Grass (Poa trivialis) is excellent on 
heavy moist soil and is tolerant of shade. This grass replaces 
to a large extent Kentucky Blue Grass in our shade mixtures. 
Lb., $1.15; 10 lbs., $9.50; 100 lbs., 75.00. 
Red Top (Agrostis alba) makes a rapid growth, seldom sur- 
vives more than two seasons, and for this reason is used 
as a nurse grass for the permanent grasses, such as Kentucky 
Blue Grass, Bent and Chewing’s Fescue. 
Fine Recleaned Seed, 
Lb., 50c; 10 lbs., $4.50; 100 Ibs., $37.50. 
Domestic Italian Rye Grass (Lolium multiflorum) is most 
useful for producing a quick green covering on newly seeded 
areas. Jt produces a luxuriant growth in three or four weeks 
in favorable weather, but is short lived, seldom lasting more 
than one season. 
Lb., 30c; 10 lbs., $2.50; 100 Ibs., $20.00. 
White Dutch Clover (Trifolium repens) has the ability to 
assimilate nitrogen from the air and in turn some of this 
nitrogen becomes available to the grass plants. Clover plants 
of this species, on account of their deeper roots, will remain 
green in dry weather when most grasses are normally 
dormant. 
Lb., $1.25; 10 Ibs., $12.00.
