We specialize in high-grade lawn grass seed. During the past few 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.
