years, we have supplied lawn seed for some of the largest institutions in the Pacific 
Northwest. Whether it is a small lawn or a large one, we can supply the seed and 
we will be glad to quote you either on mixtures or separate grasses. Many of the 
lawn grass mixtures on the market contain rye grass seeds. We consider rye grasses 
too coarse and too rapid of growth to be included in mixtures and therefore do not 
use them in our mixtures. In estimating the ground to be planted figure on one 
pound to 300 square feet of surface. If interested in lawns, write for our free bulletin 
on “Lawn Culture” by Ray W. Gill. 
In Western Oregon, Washington and California, September and October are 
ideal for sowing lawns. There is more moisture and annual weeds are killed by 
winter frosts. Be careful to plant early enough so that the roots will be established 
before hard frost might lift and break off the young roots.
