Gentlemen:
Allow me to say for
your Lawn Grass Seed
that it has given me
fine results. A beautiful velvety sward,
composed of grasses of
fine but firm texture,
with just enoughWhite
Clover to hold over
and keep the whole
green in the extra dry
and scorching spells of
July and August, is the
result of one season's
growth. I applied the
seed to an average soil.

Anglo-American Lawn Grass Seed Mixture
We guarantee our mixture of this brand to be equal to any mixture or brand offered by other firms.
The formula used in the preparation of the Anglo-American mixture is based upon that used In England for making the celebrated
lawns of that country. The knowledge of this formula was acquired by ourselves after many years of experiment in Europe, and
the United States. Grasses in the Euglish formula found unsuitable to the American climate are eliminated and replaced by other
more desirable sorts.
Lawn Grass is sometimes quoted by the standard bushel of 14 lbs., which is confusing and which should be borne in mind when
compariug prices, as 14 lbs. of our Lawn Grass Seed would cost bat $2.45.
