Agrostis Varieties or Bents 
One pound contains about 4,000,000 live seeds 
1A 50 TRIPLE A BENT. The best type of Agrostis tenuis; produces 
a stoloniferous, deep-rooted sod. Under constant mowing, it de- 
velops a turf akin to fine, silk-like, bright green Velvet Bent. 
Triple A turf becomes green early in spring and retains its color 
late in autumn. Lb. $2.50, 10 Ibs. $22.50, 25 Ibs. $52.50. 
1A 51 SEASIDE BENT (Agrostis palustris). Coos County Strain. 
The plant is dwarf and it multiplies rapidly by sending out runners 
in all directions; from these new plants are produced, and these, in 
turn, grow more runners. The turf becomes matted, and if damaged, 
it heals over promptly. Lb. $2.25, 10 Ibs. $20, 25 Ibs. $47.50.
