HAY AND PASTURE GRASS MIXTURES 











K ■ -^rf ■'■■■'■ 









FOR SPRING A1VD FALL SOWING. 



Where a field is to be put down 

 to grass for a number of years a 

 mixture of grasses that are more 

 permanent than Timothy and 

 Clover should be used, such as will 

 produce good crops of hay and 

 pasture for many years without 

 reseeding. 



We prepare mixtures of grasses 

 for a wide range of soils and con- 

 ditions, and there is hardly any 

 land so poor or climate so un- 

 favorable that we cannot furnish a 

 mixture for it that will yield one 

 or more crops of hay every year. 



The first cost of seeding with 

 these mixtures is generally more 

 than Timothy and Clover, but the 

 returns fully warrant the extra 

 expense. 



Only the best recleaned grass 

 seeds are used by us in these mix- 

 tures, and if the soil and condi- 

 tions are described, the proper 

 proportions will be used to pro- 

 duce satisfactory results. 



Sow 25 lbs. to the acre. Price, 

 25 lbs., $4.00; 100 lbs., $15.00.
