TO CHANGE 
BENT GRASSES 
Bent grasses are used extensively for golf greens 
on account of the heavy mass of thick-leaved grass 
which they produce. This growth materially aids 
in choking out weeds. They do not always give 
the same degree of satisfaction on lawns because 
private lawns do not always get sufficient and 
proper care. 
ASTORIA BENT (Agrostis stolonfera compacta) has 
very pleasing green color with blades of fine 
texture. It produces stolons or creeping runners 
lightly above and heavily below the surface. It 
is produced on dry hill lands and not on moist 
lowlands and is therefore capable of withstand- 
ing dry conditions. It is a good grass for lawns 
as well as golf greens. 
Prices: (Ib. $1.30) (5. lbs. $6.25) not postpaid. 
HIGHLAND BENT is a type of Colonial Creeping 
Bent grown in the uplands of Oregon. It is very

SEASIDE BENT (Agrostis mari- 
tima) is produced along the 
sea coast in Oregon in the low 
swampy lands. Is known as

leaved, bright green in color, 
and creeps both below and 
above the ground. It requires
