ASTORIA BENT, RHODE ISLAND 
BENT, COLONIAL BENT (Agrostis ten- 
uis). An excellent all-round Bent for lawns, 
greens, parks and playing fields; grows on 
wide range of soils; spreads mainly by under- 
ground root stalks or rhizomes, making a 
deep reinforced sod. It seldom produces many 
stolons or surface runners, thus lessening the 
amount of top dressing and watering. Sow 
about 3 lbs. to 1000 square feet. 
SEASIDE OR COOS COUNTY BENT 
(Agrostis maritima). A superlative Bent for 
putting greens and lawns. ranked high by 
U. S. Golf Association for putting surface,

ers although this characteristic does not 
usually show up till the second year, after 
which it makes a fine turf of uniform color 
and texture. Sow about 3 lbs. to 1000 sq .ft. 
BENT, VELVET (Agrostis canina). Raritan 
strain is disease resistant and makes a beau- 
tiful turf of extra fine texture. Pale green
