CURRIES SUPERIOR GRASS AND CLOVER MIXTURES. 



For Spring or Fall Sowing — With or Without a Cover Crop. 



A FEW OF THE ADVANTAGES WE CLAIM FOR OUR PERMANENT GRASS 

 AND CLOVER MIXTURES. 



They are permanent, lasting for ten to twelve years without reseeding. They 

 mature two or three weeks earlier than Timothy, produce more Hay to the acre, 

 and on account of their earliness have a longer growing season in which to 

 mature the second crop. 



After cutting, these mixed grasses recover quickly, and excellent pasturage 

 can be had within a week or two after haying time. 



Your chance of missing a catch is reduced to a minimum, as is the case with 

 Timothy or any one variety of grass. One or other of the grasses may miss a 

 catch, but total failure is almost impossible. 



At first sight these Grass and Clover Mixtures look expensive to the average 

 farmer (quite a little higher than Timothy), but he must bear in mimi 

 that they also last three or four times longer — and one second preparation of the 

 ground to again sow Timothy which had failed would more than make up the 

 difference of cost between these Grass Mixtures and Timothy.

No. 11. For Renovating Old Pastures and Meadows. 



Grass lands that have for years been giving good Hay 

 crops, without receiving a top dressing of barnyard or com- 

 mercial fertilizers, become bare and thin, frequently wanting 

 in the more nutritive grasses. These pastures will be greatly 

 improved by sowing this mixture at the rate of 10 pounds per 

 acre. Previous to sowing, harrow the sod with a sharp-tooth 

 harrow.

 othy. Five tons per acre have been cut from this 

 in one year. '
