Selected Grasses and 
Field Seeds 
Prices on separate grasses and field seeds are subject to 
market fluctuations and therefore are subject to change with- 
out notice. 
Creeping Red Fescue. A permanent lawn grass that is 
particularly adapted to the shade. It spreads from the 
roots, making a dense turf which tends to crowd out 
weeds. Because of its deep roots, it is capable of standing 
dry weather. Grows well in sunny areas also. Lb. $1.00; 
10 Ibs. $9.50; 25 Ibs. $22.50. 
Kentucky Blue Grass. Used mostly as a lawn grass. A 
permanent type of grass that produces dense, tough sod 
of a deep green color. It is slow in becoming established. 
Lb. $1.10; 10 Ibs. $10.00; 25 Ibs. $23.75. 
Fancy Red Top. A nurse grass that lives about three 
years on turf kept cut. It gives a fine texture the first 
year of growth and then becomes quite coarse during the 
second and third years. It makes quick growth, and 
nurses the permanent grasses until they become estab- 
lished. Lb. $1.10; 10 Ibs $10.00; 25 Ibs. $23.75. 
Timothy. A tall-growing meadow grass used mostly for 
hay and pasture. Grows quickly. Lb. 45 cts.; 10 Ibs. 
$4.00; 25 Ibs. $8.75. 
Colonial Bent. This permanent grass, very fine in tex- 
ture, is similar to that used on putting greens. Spreads 
rapidly by creeping underground roots. Requires close 
cutting and plenty of moisture. Lb. $2.00; 10 Ibs. $18.00; 
25 Ibs. $40.00. 
Domestic Rye Grass. Also known as Common Rye 
Grass. A quick grower often used in lawn grass seed 
mixtures as a nurse grass to prevent the soil from wash- 
ing. Lb. 30 cts.; 10 Ibs. $2.75; 25 Ibs. $6.25. 
Orchard Grass. A field grass used in pastures and 
meadows. Lb. 50 cts.; 10 Ibs. $4.50; 25 Ibs. $10.00. 
Perennial Rye Grass. A short-lived perennial lasting 
three to four years. Used as a nurse grass in lawn seed 
mixtures and also in meadow mixtures for hay and pas- 
ture. Good for a temporary lawn. Lb. 45 cts.; 10 Ibs. 
$4.25; 25 Ibs. $10.00. 
Poa trivialis. Rough-stalked Meadow Grass. This 
variety of Blue Grass is available again. Thrives in 
shaded Jawn areas. Deep green in color. Lb. $1.50; 
10 Ibs. $13.50. 
Italian Rye Grass. A good temporary grass to grow in 
shaded areas. It is coarse in texture, like the other rye 
grasses. Lb. 40 cts.; 10 Ibs. $3.75; 25 Ibs. $8.75. 
New Zealand Chewing’s Fescue. A permanent grass 
particularly adapted to the shade. The blades are very 
fne and wiry and are gray-green in color. Its deep roots 
and tough texture makes it a very hardy and durable 
grass. It will also grow in sunny areas. Lb. $1.00; 
10 Ibs. $9.50; 25 Ibs. $22.50. 
Domestic Red Clover. Adds to the value of any meadow 
or pasture crop. Since it takes nitrogen from the air 
and puts it into the soil, it is a real soil improver. Lb. 
$1.10; 10 Ibs. $10.00.

more durable than the Common White Clover.
