1117 ^p I R/l ^^T™ LJ \/ Of Hay Grasses Timothy is one of the most 

 I I IVI ^J I n T popular, nutritious and salable. On clay or 

 heavy loams, lowlands or in mountainous districts provided there is an 

 abundance of moisture, it produces the very best results, On sandy or light 

 loamy ground, it does not do as well as Orchard, Tall Meadow Oat or Red 

 Top Grass. If grazed or cut too close, the stand of Timothy will be seriously 

 injured, besides it does not form as good grazing as many other grasses. 

 From \% to 3 tons of fine hay to the acre. A splendid mixture is 6 lbs. 

 Timothy, 4 lbs. Clover (either Mammoth Clover or Alsike Clover preferred 

 as they mature at the same time as Timothy) 4 lbs. Fancy Red Top, % bu. 

 Meadow Fesque. Together, these will produce most excellent hay, also 

 nutritious and abundant pasture in good loamy, clay or low ground soils. 

 Use 8 lbs. of Timothy and 6 lbs. of Clover when only these two are used. 

 "Gold" Brand, 10c Lb. Bu. of 45 Lbs. $2.50. Market fluctuates. 



1122. Meadow Fesque, Randall or English Bine Grass.— It makes a 

 most excellent hay and pasturage grass, and is particularly valuable for fall 

 and winter pasturage, as it remains green throughout the winter. It is also 

 a splendid spring and summer grass, and usually makes more and thicker 

 leafage than any other grass. It succeeds well in nearly all sections of the 

 South, and should be very largely used in pasturage and hay mixtures, be- 

 ing specially suitable for sowing with Red Top and Timothy for hay, or 

 with these and Orchard and Tall Meadow Oat for permanen t pasturage. 

 Sow either in the spring or fall at the rate of two bushels to the acre, if sown 

 by itself. When sown with Red Top and Timothy, sow one bushel (14 lbs.) 

 Meadow Fesque, 5 lbs. Fancy Clean Red Top and 6 lbs. Timothy per acre. 

 Sown for a grazing mixture with Orchard and Tall Meadow Oat Grass, add 

 half a bushel each of these two grasses. Price, "Gold" Brand Lb. 15c 

 Bus. of 14 Lbs. about $1.40. 



1118. Kentucky Blue Grass. — An excellent pasturage and lawn grass, succeeding best on lime- 

 stone land, but does well on stiff or clay medium soils. It is rather sensitive to heat, but not so to 

 cold weather, and on this account does its best in the fall, winter and spring. It grows slowly at 

 first, forms a compact turf, making a fine pssturage when once established. It is best, however, 

 to combine other grasses with it for either lawn or pasturage. Sow in the fall or spring at the rate 

 of two to three bushels per acre. "Gold" Brand Seed, Lb. 25c. Bu. of 14 Lbs. $2.50. Special 

 prices in quantity. 



1120. Native or Canada Blue Grass. — At the Maryland Experiment Station this grass remained 

 a luxuriant green during the hottest summer when other grasses were materially affected by the 

 heat. Being a grass of Canadian growth it will stand the cold weather admirably. Canada Blue 

 Grass should be tried by everyone not familiar with its excellent qualities. It is particularly well 

 suited for mixtures. "Gold" Brand Seed, Lb. 15c. Bu. of 14 Lbs. $1.50. 



1171. Creeping' Bent Grass. — This grass somewhat resembles the Red Top or Herd's Grass in 

 growth and appearance, and is considered by many practical men as fully equal, or even superior 

 to that grass. It is certainly a splendid grass, and should be largely used in lawn and pasturage 

 mixtures. It has creeping or stoloniferous roots, and spreads and holds to the soil in a very tena- 

 cious way; at same time is easily eradicated if debired. Lb. 25c. 10 Lbs. and over 20c per Lb. 



1111. Red Top, or Herd's Grass. — This grass makes excellent pasturage and good crop of fine 

 quality hay, and succeeds on a greater variety of soils than any other grass in general use, giving 

 very good results on light soils, and the very beit results on heavier, moist or low-ground soils. 

 It is rather late in starting in the spring, and matures its crop at the same time as Timothy. Is 

 excellently adapted for seeding with Timothy for hay, and furnishes excellent pasturage afterward. 

 When it gets well established it spreads, and will gradually supplant other grasses. Our Gold 

 Brand of the Fancy Clean Red Top is of Extra fine quality, and carefully cleaned from impurities. 

 We can also furnish the Choice and Prime Fancy Clean Red Top as usually sold. It requires about 

 8 to 10 pounds to seed an acre of the Fancy Clean seed. When sowing with Timothy, sow5pounds 

 of the Fancy Clean seed and 8 pounds of Timothy per acre. It can be sown either in the spring or 

 fall. "Gold" Brand Fancy Seed, Lb. 15c. 100 Lbs. $11.00. Choice grade, 100 Lbs. $10.00.

 1149. Sand or Winter Vetch. (Vicia Villossa.)— VICrA VIIXOSSA succeeds and produces 

 good crops on poor sandy soils as on good land; grows to a height of 4 or 5 feet. It is perfectly 

 hardy throughout the United States, remaining green all winter, and should be sown in thespring, 

 mixed with oats, spring rye or barley; or during August and September, with winter rye, which 

 serves as a support for the plants. It is the earliest crop for cutting, being hardier and nearly a 

 month earlier than Scarlet Clover, and a full crop can be taken off the land in time for planting 

 spring crops; Every dairyman and stock-breeder in the United States should have a field of it. and 

 if you try it once, you will never be a season without it. It is exceedingly nutritious, eaten with 

 relish, and may be fed with safety to all kinds of stock. Sow 50 to 60 lbs. per acre with *A bu of 

 rye, oats or barley. "Gold" Brand, lb. 1 5c. Bus. of 60 lbs. $6.00. 100 lbs. $9.00 If by mail

 within six weeks from the time of sowing, and on an average one acre will carry from 12 to 15 sheep 

 six weeks to two months. When on the Rape they should at all times have access to salt- but water 

 is not necessary. As it thrives best in cool weather, it should not be sown in the Southern States 

 until September or October for winter pasture. Its fattening proper ties are probably twice as good 

 as those of Clover, and for sheep the feeding value of Rape excells all other plants we know of

1125. GERMAN MILLET. 



German Millet, Choice Southern Grown.— Makes a large yielding and most nu- 

 tritious hay crop, quick growing and easily cured. It should be seeded thickly, 

 one bushel per acre, and should be harvested while in bloom. If the seeds are al- 

 lowed to form, the stalks get hard and it does not make nearsogood ahay. Should 

 be sown any time between the middle of May until the end of June. It matures a 

 crop in six to eight weeks after feeding. Our Southern grown Millet makes much 

 better growth than western or northern grown seed. "Gold" Brand Southern 

 Grown Millet. $1.25 per Bus. of 50 Lbs. 



1126. Hungarian Millet Grass. — For good low ground or rich soils, this makes even 

 a more valuable crop than German Millet. It is considered equal in nutritive value 

 to Timothy hay. On uplands or light soils, German Millet makes larger yields than 

 Hungarian. Hungarian Millet should be sown from the first of May to the end of 

 July, at the rate of one bushel per acre. "Gold" Brand, $1.25 per Bus.
