Have a Beautiful Lawn by Using Salzer’s Special Lawn Seed Mixture 
SPECIAL LAWN SEED MIXTURE 
Not the most expensive, nor yet the cheapest, but the 
best general all around and all purpose Lawn Grass 
Mixture that we catalog, and the most popular. In ad- 
dition to a carefully blended mixture of the best 
grasses, blue grass, red top, etc. Salzer’s Special Mix- 
ture contains the proper percentage of Dwarf White 
Dutch Clover, always desirable for the lawn. 
Customers should not be guided by price alone in pur- 
chasing their lawn grass seed, but should also consider 
quality and the final results. An abnormally low priced 
mixture may be very apt to contain considerable chaff. 
Sow the seed early, as soon as frost is out of the ground, 
to enable the young grass to get a good start before any 
weeds appear. Contains no timothy. Sow 1 lb. to 200 
square feet.

MERION BLUE GRASS 
A new distinct variety or strain propagated from a 
single plant selection, discovered growing among Ken- 
tucky blue grass on a tee of the Merion Golf Club, near 
Philadelphia. Merion Blue Grass has demonstrated in 
plantings throughout the country, its ability to stay 
green all summer, stand close mowing and its resist- 
ance to leaf spot and other diseases. Its growth is 
lower, thicker, more spreading and of a darker green 
color and it roots more deeply than bent or Kentucky 
blue grass, which makes it more resistant to drouth. 
Its thick growth helps to discourage crab grass and 
other weeds. The seed of Merion Blue Grass is very 
small, requiring only 1 lb. to seed 750 square feet.
