Will succeed in a wider range of temperature than any other grass. Sow 35 to 40 lbs. to the acre. Canada Blue Grass {Poa compressa). Used sometimes as a substitute for Kentucky Blue Grass in Lawn Grass Mix- tures, but not so desirable for that purpose either in color or texture. Its merit is in the fact that it will grow on almost any soil and under adverse climatic conditions where other grasses would fail. Especially suited for thin, dry soil. Creeping Bent Grass (Agrosiis Siolon'.fera). Adapts itself fairly well to most soils, but thrives best on low or moist lands. On account ot its short, slender foliage, vigorous root growth, and creeping habit, it produces a turf capable of withstanding a great deal of wear, and should be in- cluded in all Mixtures designed for pleasure grounds. Seed with other grasses at the rate of about 30 pounds to the acre. Crested Dogstall iCynosurus Cristatus). On dry, hard soils and hills it is valuable for its hardiness. Useful for lawn mixtures. Sow 25 lbs. to the acre. Hard Fescue (Fesfuca Diiriusciila). A dwarf grass desirable for dry localities where many other grasses would fail. Sow 30 lbs. to the acre. Italian Rye Grass (Lolium ItaUcum). Yields an early and abundant harvest on any good common soil. Recommended for pasture mixtures. Also adapted for moist situations. Kentucky Blue Grass (/in;^ Grass: Poa Pratensis). A low- growing, creeping grass of fine texture and color, also of good nutritive value. Desirable for either lawns or pas- tures. It is of slow growth, requiring at least two seasons in which to establish itself. For that reason it should be seeded with other grasses. It
