A better lawn for your home? We can help you! 
When a seedsman operates in only one area, he soon knows just 
about all there is to know about lawn-building in that area. 
We've been at it for quite along time, hereabouts! So we can 
assure you that we know what your lawn needs. Whatever your 
lawn situation may be, it's a good idea to ask us about it! 
Astoria Bent 
Produces numerous root stocks which 
spread underground and throw up new 
shoots, making a very thick turf, This 
Bent has a good color and is excellent 
for lawns and putting greens. Does not 
require as much cutting as Creeping 
Bent. 
Seaside Bent 
A true creeping Bent. The plant is 
dwarf, and multiplies rapidly by send- 
ing out runners in all directions. With 
proper watering and care, it makes a 
strong, enduring turf. If damaged it heals 
over promptly, 
Chewings Fescue 
A superb grass to grow in rather 
shaded areas and even on fairly acid 
soil and under other unfavorable condi- 
tions. Plants grow low, make a dense 
turf. Often used for putting greens and 
fairways. 
White Dutch Clover 
Although not a grass, White Clover is 
very desirable in lawn mixtures be- 
cause of its rapid, low growth and 
creeping stems, Valuable as a green 
cover for poor ground. Succeeds best on 
moist ground or during wet season. 

Our finest Lawn Mixture 
Our selected lawn mixture is a combi- 
nation of the finest quality seeds— 
which we have developed after years 
of experience. All the grasses in it are 
fine-bladed and deep-rooting. There just 
isn't any better combination thar this 
for the lawns of our territory! 
Kentucky Blue Grass 
Produces a deep dark green lawn of 
close thick turf. Maintains its green 
color until late in fall. Roots are deep, 
and plants are very hardy. 
Domestic Rye Grass 
A quick-growing annual, valuable in 
lawn mixtures as a nurse crop, to keep 
lawn green while better, slow-growing 
varieties are becoming established. Suc- 
ceeds well on almost any soil. 
Perennial Rye Grass 
A quick growing grass, most suitable 
for mixtures. Succeeds on almost any 
soil not water sogged. 
Red Top 
Particularly suitable for wet, low spots, 
as it stands wet weather or even over- 
flowing, better than other grasses. Also 
does well on almost any good, rich soil. 
Often thrives where Blue Grass fails— 
and therefore makes an excellent sup- 
plement for it.

we can also supply just about any 
other grasses you may need. We carry

can be made to grow.
