ATHLETIC SEED MIXTURES 
It is important to plant grasses which have long, tough roots and are able to withstand sharp spikes, 
cleast and drought. In preparing these mixtures we have consulted numerous experts and groundsmen, 
and have taken all types of soil and climate into consideration. Planting good seed is only one important 
step toward success. The knowledge of proper maintenance of sport turf is a necessity also. We sell many 
outstanding athletic fields, and individuals may have these grasses duplicated for their own lawns.

Landreths’ Ruffwear—This mixture contains a 
number of grasses properly blended to withstand 
the dry spells of July and August and the rainy 
season of Spring. It is used on all parts of the tennis 
court and golf course fairway, proving the sports- 
man’s delight as it remains green the entire playing 
season and is designed for rough wear. Formula 
does not contain Clover. 
Easy Eagle—The putting green supreme is formed 
after seeding with this Mixture. It contains the 
finest bent grasses and is smooth, lasting and con- 
tinually green. Construction, fertilization and
