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 put- 
ting greens. Does not require as much 
cutting as Creeping Bent. 
Seaside Bent 
A true creeping Bent. The plant is 
dwarf, and multiplies rapidly by 
sending out runners in all directions. 
With proper watering and care, it 
makes a strong, enduring turf. If 
damaged it heals over promptly. 
Chewing Fescue 
A superb grass to grow in rather 
shaded areas and even on fairly acid 
soil and under other unfavorable 
conditions. Plants grow low, make a 
dense turf. Often used for putting 
greens and fairways. 
Red Top 
Particularly suitable for wet, low 
spots, as it stands wet weather or 
even overflowing, better than other 
grasses. Also does well on almost any 
good, rich soil. Often thrives where 
Blue Grass fails — and therefore 
makes an excellent supplement for it.

bination of the finest quality seeds—

tion than this for our lawns.
