“REPUTATION BUILDER” 
Grass Seed Mixture 
In a great measure the reputation of a seed house depends upon the quality 
of the grass seed mixtures offered. Because it is an item that is almost uni- 
versally purchased by anyone who has any ground whatever, and because there 
has been and is such a wide variance in the quality of the lawn mixtures 
offered, it becomes increasingly important to acquaint the purchaser of grass 
seed with the history behind a quality mixture. 
A grass seed mixture may be offered under any brand name. However, 
regardless of the name, the basis of all good grass seed mixtures must neces- 
sarily be the same. The important feature of a good mixture is that it con- 
tains heavy, plump seeds from selected grass stocks that have been grown 
for the distinct purpose of seed production Careful blending plays its part in 
the compounding of a high class grass seed mixture. We have prided our- 
selves upon the super-quality of our grass seed mixtures which have established 
a reputation in the past twenty-five years.

Wild White Clover 
A comparatively recent introduction of this strain of Clover. It is very vig- 
orous and of a thick, dwarf growth. An important feature is its lack of flowers 
which is a great advantage in maintaining a green lawn. Wild White Clover 
is more vigorous than any weed, and because of its all around excellence we 
recommend its use in the finest lawns, whereas in the past we have never rec- 
ommended the use of ordinary Dutch White Clover except for specific pur-
