BRECK’S ALL PURPOSE 
LAWN SEED 
Grows Rugged Turf Even 
Under Average Conditions 
Breck’s All Purpose Lawn 
Seed is what its name im- 
plies ...a truly “all pur- 
pose” mixture. Will grow 
well in sunny or in fairly 
shady locations, and forms 
a dense, deep-rooted turf 
that will stand lots of hard 
wear and tear. It’s an 
economical blend of im- 
ported and domestic grasses which has been 
formulated to combine hardiness, rapid growth, 
deep rooting and extra durability. Even under 
average conditions, All Purpose makes a lawn 
of rich color and even texture. Ideal for play 
areas, playgrounds. Prepaid. H214 1 lb. $1.40

“economy” mixtures sold at much lower prices. 1818" goes farther, sows twice 
as much area, makes an infinitely better lawn which actually becomes more and 
more beautiful every year. Remember, your lawn can be no better than the seed 
you plant. Weeds, crab grass, dirt and chaff have been carefully removed; certified 
analysis and planting instructions with every package. 
1818". makes a rich, velvety green carpet on either acid or alkaline soil. The 
Illahee strain of Creeping Fescue in ‘'1818” is disease-resistant, deep-rooted and 
creeps underground to make your lawn thicker and thicker as time goes on! Chew- 
ings Fescue, Bluegrass and Bent grass in the mixture do the same thing. We believe 
"1818" is the finest lawn seed value today. It’s cheapest in the long run because it 
gives you a permanent lawn that doesn’t need re-seeding, and the high seed count 
makes "1818" actually cover more area than other lawn seed mixtures. 1 lb. sows

LAWN CLOVER 
White Dutch. There is a great difference of 
opinion as to the merit of White Clover in 
lawns. Some gardeners like it... . some don’t. 
Because of this difference of opinion and 
since it should be sown separately we do not 
include it in Breck’s Lawn Seeds, but it is 
available for those who prefer it. 
White Dutch Lawn Clover is deep rooting 
and drought resistant, and it will usually 
stay green during any normal dry spell. Its 
texture is soft, and it should not be used in 
play areas. Prepaid.

BRECK'’S MERION BLUEGRASS 
Makes a thicker, greener firmer turf in less 
time than ordinary grasses—and takes less 
mowing and watering to keep it that way. 
With Merion Bluegrass, every owner can 
easily have a permanent, rich green lawn. 
You need only one half as much Merion 
Bluegrass to get that thicker permanent turf 
resulting in a growth so dense even crab- 
grass and weeds can't penetrate it. Retains 
moisture longer, so requires less watering in 
periods of drought. Prepaid.
