Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Beckert's Bulbs and Seeds: Fall 1912
The ingredients of this mixture are the highest grade of recleaned seeds only. The value of lawn grass seed can be best determined by its weight per measured bushel, the better the quality the heavier the weight. This Lawn Seed is sold by the standard bushel of 32 quarts (dry measure) and weighs 24 pounds per bushel.
Lawn Seeds are generally sold on'a basis of I4 pounds to the bushel, which will invariably fall one-third or more short of actual measure if composed of choice, clean seeds, and where a bushel of 14 pounds holds out in measure, it must of necessity be largely com posed oi light, chaffy matter of no value.
