LAWN SEEDS 
and GRASSES 


KENTUCKY BLUEGRASS SEED 
High quality, weed-free, chaff-free, heavy seed with a high germ- 
ination and purity test. For spring planting it should be sown 
as early as possible. 
Due to heavy rains at harvest time, the bulk of the 1948 crop 
of Bluegrass Seed was lost. Hence the supply of good seed is 
very limited. HIGH QUALITY SEED—$1.50 per Ib.; 5 Ibs. for 
DUTCH WHITE CLOVER SEED 
DUTCH WHITE LAWN CLOVER—For best results with Blue- 
grass lawns, especially where there is no shade, sow White 
Clover with the Bluegrass seed at the rate of about 1 pound to 
every 5 pounds of Bluegrass. Such lawns are much easier to 
maintain, more resistant to the heat and to grubs. Per Ib., $1.25, 
$6.50; 10 Ibs. for $12.50; not prepaid. not prepaid. 

BERMUDA GRASS ROOTS - Our Extra Hardy Strain 
Is Just the Thing for Football Fields and Playgrounds 
In this section, Bermuda Grass lawns must be established from the roots of a strain of proven hardiness. (Seed is not suc- 
cessful because it is produced only in the South and invariably you will get a tender southern strain that is not hardy to our 
winters.) Our strain of Bermuda Grass, as far as we know, has never been injured by any cold or winter weather in the last 20 
years. It has withstood temperatures as low as 32 degrees below zero, as well as droughts and floods of the past 20 years. In 
fact, it makes a turf so sturdy and tough that it is used extensively on football fields and playgrounds. It is also used on high- 
way plantings on steep slopes such as cuts and overpasses to prevent erosion. 
Bermuda Grass is sold by the bushel of roots. One bushel will plant between 200 and 300 square feet of lawn area, depending 
upon how thick it is planted. It should not be planted before May Ist. The period from May 15th to June 15th is the best time 
to plant. However, we have made many successful plantings during July and August. It should NOT be planted in the fall. Our 
Bermuda Grass roots are priced as follows: 
1 to 10 bushels—$1.75 per bushel. 10 bushels or over—$1.50 per bushel. 
Above prices are not prepaid. It is best shipped by express although for short distances it may travel by truck freight. 
It is packed 2 bushels per bag and complete instructions for planting are furnished with each order.

HORTICULTURAL PEAT MOSS 
Valuable as a source of soil humus. Makes heavy soils more friable and workable. Helps light sandy soils hold moisture. 
Prevents soil from baking and cracking during hot weather. Peat Moss will hold approximately 18 times its weight in water. It 
pays to mix Peat Moss with the back-fill soil when planting evergreens, shrubs, trees, flowers and bulbs. It is almost indispen- 
sable in preparing soil for potting, porch boxes and flats. Valuable as a mulch on lawns and gardens. In preparing a seed bed 
for turf planting, one-half to one inch of Horticultural Peat Moss worked in with the top three inches of soil will give a seed 
bed which will retain moisture, permit fibrous root growth, quick germination of seeds and give you a thick heavy growth of fine 
grass that will be very resistant to burning out during the summer or freezing out during the winter. 
LARGE BAG, containing approximately 4 bu., $3.75 each (not prepaid).
