EXTRA PROFITS IN LAWN SEED 
NOTICE—Due to the present shortage of metal, the 
WPB will not allow the manufacturing of tin containers for 
grass seeds. This condition, however, will in no way affect 
the seed, which will be of our usual high quality and it must 
pass our rigid specifications of purity, germination and 
maximum freedom from weeds. The 14-, 1- and 3-pound 
packages will be packed in extra-strong brown Kraft paper 
bags and the 5-, 10- and 25-pound packages, in the usual 
cotton bags. 

You can make an additional quick profit this spring by 
stocking Michell’s Best Quality Lawn Seed Mixtures. The 
flower shop or greenhouse is a natural outlet for Lawn Seed, 
and many of our customers have built up a considerable 
spring trade in this line. 
Our policy of furnishing fresh seed only does not permit 
any consignment arrangement, and all seed is offered on the 
basis of outright sale. 
The Deals listed below offer conservative quantities which should not require any effort to move in one season. 
Special prices on larger quantities will be quoted on request.

Price should not be the prime consideration when buying Grass Seed. Low- 
quality seed may be the cause of endless trouble, in addition to setting the result of 
expensive labor and preparation at naught. 
Our connections with the most reliable producers in this country and abroad 
place us in a position of advantage for our supplies, chiefly because of the large 
volume of Grass Seed for which we contract. 
We are always pleased to submit samples, with prices, for comparison and let our 
customers be the judges.
