HARRIS’ LAWN GRASS SEED 
Comparative photos 
of MERION (right) 
and KENTUCKY 
BLUEGRASS (left). 
The thicker texture 
and better color of 
Merion are due to 
its extra vigor and 
disease resistance.

ILLAHEE CREEPING FESCUE. 
This superior strain of creeping fescue is extremely valuable for lawn 
mixtures. It makes a thick growth, spreading by underground runners, 
blends perfectly with other grasses and survives on almost any soil. 
Highly resistant to wear, adapted to sun or shade, it is a fine-leaved 
attractive grass that holds its color well. Outstanding in our tests.

Pees SAY ? 2a 
WILD WHITE CLOVER. True Kent Strain. Best for Lawns. 
This low-growing, fine-leaved, hardy English strain of clover is ideal 
for lawns and far superior to the White Dutch or New Zealand Clover 
usually offered. It is an attractive creeping type which blends in per- 
fectly with the grass, tolerates neglect and vastly improves the appear- 
ance of most lawns. During hot dry periods when the grasses are 
dormant and brownish, this clover stays green and fresh-looking. If 
you like clover in your lawn, sprinkle a light seeding in early spring— | 
an ounce will sow 500 sq. ft. (1 Ib. on 8000 sq. ft.) 
Oz. 30c; 14 Lb. 65c; 4% Lb. $1.00; Lb. $1.75; 5 Lbs. or more at $1.65 
per Lb. postpaid. Not paid: 25 Lbs. or more at $1.50 per Lb. 
COLONIAL BENT. This is the true Astoria Bent, the finest textured and 
best colored of the many strains offered. It responds well to extra 
care and fertilizing, thrives on close mowing, yet succeeds on acid 
soil. Semi-creeping in habit, it spreads underground and makes a 
dense beautiful turf. Sow not over 1 lb. to 600 sq. ft. 
4 Lb. 95c; 1 Lb. $1.85; 2 Lbs. $3.65; 5 Lbs. $8.85; 
10 Lbs. $17.20; postpaid. Not paid: 25 Lbs. or more at $1.60 per Lb. 
WEED KILLERS 
CRABGRASS KILLER. (Potassium Cyanate). Highly effective for con-

Easily applied with sprayer or sprinkling can. 
4 oz. (treats 500-1000 sq. ft.) 75c; 8 oz. $1.40 postpaid.

Gal. (wt. approx. 10 Ibs.) $4.75 postpaid to 5th zone.

or woody plants. Non-poisonous, does not sterilize soil.
