are money losers. The government recog- 
nizes this in AAA by paying up to $1.50

adapted grasses. Kentucky Blue Grass is 
an adapted grass to a wide area. It will pay 
handsome dividends to reseed old pastures 
or start new ones with this high quality 
seed. Our Kentucky Blue Grass Seed is all

fine, bright seed of high purity and strong 
. germination. We recommend sowing 25 to

1254 CLOVER—WHITE DUTCH 
Fancy Recleaned Native Seed i 
White Clover is a low, smooth, perennial herb 
arising from a straight tap root. The plant 
possesses creeping stems which develop ad- 
ventitious roots at the nodes. It is this fea- 
ture which enables clover to spread rapidly 
and which makes it so desirable in lawns and 
playing grounds. It withstands greater tem- 
perature extremes than either Red Clover or 
Alsike. Naturally suited to cool, moist re- 
gions, it is also rather tolerant of shade.

This strain of American Grown Bent Grass is recognized as the 
finest quality obtainable. It is especially suited for lawns and golf 
courses, being perfectly hardy, producing a dense velvety green 
carpet that withstands much trampling. For putting greens on golf 
courses, it is generally sown in beds and when established, dug up 
and the stolons, or individual plants are set in the putting greens 4 or 
5 inches apart, as it spreads rapidly and eventually makes a solid turf 
of the finest texture of low growing grasses. For seeding in home 
lawns, we prefer sowing the seed at the rate of 1 lb. to 200 square 
feet. Postpaid, 14 lb., 70c; lb., $1.25; 214 lbs., $3.00; 5 Ibs., $5.75; 10
