ds’ Lawn Cass Mixtures 
(Sow four pounds to 1,000 square feet) 
Good seed is a major requisite for a beautiful lawn. Regardless of 
the effort and money spent on a lawn, poor seed will produce an 
inferior turf. Olds’ Lawn Grass Seed has won a reputation for 
producing exceptionally fine lawns and is widely used by critical 
landscape gardeners. All our mixtures are made of high-quality, re- 
cleaned heavy seed that is free from chaff, and none of our mixtures 
contain hay seed such as timothy or cheap seeds. High prices are not 
a guarantee of quality. Check the label when you buy and make sure 
you get what you pay for.
