LAWN GRASS SEEDS 
SELECTED BY A 
“HOME” SEEDSMAN 

BERMUDA GRASS UNHULLED — 
As valuable for lawns or golf courses 
as it is for pasture—or wherever a 
thick, heavy sod is desired. Needs 
plenty of water. When Bermuda grass 
turns brown in late fall or winter, it 
should be given a good application of 
lawn fertilizer. 
HULLED BERMUDA GRASS—The 
highest grade of Bermuda, with the 
hard, almost water-tight hulls re- 
moved. Produces much quicker and 
more certain results. Germination, 
with proper moisture conditions takes 
only 1 to 2 weeks, 
CARPET GRASS—Exceedingly hardy. 
Does better in poor, sandy soil than 
any other grass, The more mowing 
and trampling it gets, the better it 
likes it. Highly desirable for golf 
courses, 
WINTER RYE—tThe grass that with- 
stands winter weather perfectly. Plant 
it in fall for a nice green lawn during 
the winter months. An annual—must 
be planted every year. 

RED TOP—Particularly suitable for 
wet, low spots, as it stands wet 
weather, or even overflowing, better 
than other grasses. Also does well on 
almost any good, rich soil. Often 
thrives where blue grass fails. How- 
ever, it should not be considered as 
competitive with blue grass, but as 
a good supplement for it. Particu- 
larly useful in mixtures for restrain- 
ing the growth of weeds. 
BEST LAWN MIXTURE — Our se- 
lected lawn mixture is the very finest 
combination of high quality seeds... 
a marvelous mixture that years of ex- 
perimenting has proved to be safe 
and sound. It produces a lawn that is

grasses in it are fine-bladed and deep- 
rooting.

lawn, our special shade mixture is 
heartily recommended, Excellent qual- 
ity, shade-enduring grasses and clov- 
ers ... blended into a mixture that 
will give surprising results.

DWARF ESSEX RAPE—One of the most 
valuable crops. Excellent green food for all

two months. Delicious for your table, too. 
If you haven’t tried it, cooked like other 
greens, be sure to plant some this season. 
MILLET—Its quick growth makes it par- 
ticularly desirable for hay and pasturage, 
especially in times of drouth.

BERMUDA—tThe best foundation for per- 
manent pastures in many territories. Needs 
little moisture. Thrives almost everywhere.

HULLED BERMUDA—Hulls completely re- 
moved to encourage quick germination. Un- 
der proper moisture conditions will germi- 
nate in one to two weeks.

ture because its creeping growth lets it 
stand close grazing. Needs plenty of mois- 
ture. Especially desirable for golf courses. 
DALLIS GRASS—Germinates slowly and 
needs plenty of moisture at the start—but 
well worth the effort because it comes closer 
to giving you year-round pasturage than 
any other grass. 
ITALIAN RYE or WINTER GRASS— 
American grown. The grass that solves 
many winter lawn and pasture problems. 
Must be considered strictly an annual cn 
lawns, but if not grazed too closely will 
reseed itself in pastures.

mer grazing crops. Also fine for green feed,

feed green to cows or horses.
