of The prevailing low prices of Wheat, Corn and other grain crops have made their 
growing, and the usual rotation farming unprofitable, especially in the Eastern States, 
where it is impossible to compete with the rich prairie soils of the West, but hay 
still yields a fair profit, and the farmer whose land is sown with a proper mixture 
of Permanent Grasses, requiring only an occasional top-dressing of manure or 
fertilizer to MAINTAIN THEIR HEAVY CROPPING QUALITIES FOR 
TWENTY YEARS OR MORE, does away with the necessity for plowing and

rotation cropping with all its attendant expense. 
AoA The most serious item of expense on the farm, the labor bill, can be largely reduced 
and thus give reasonable prospect of profitable annual returns at a minimum of 
labor and expense. The seed of these Permanent Grasses is more costly than 
Timothy, and more is required per acre, but by reason of their heavy cropping quali- 
ties and permanency they soon repay the extra cost and leave a handsome margin 
for the farmer, when the cost of plowing, harrowing and re-seeding Timothy every 
three and four years is taken into consideration. ‘ 
The grasses used in this Mixture recover quickly after the hay crop is cut, and yield 
either a second crop or pasture in the greatest abundance during the summer and fall 
months. Within a few days after cutting, their rich green appearance as compared 
with Timothy is a desirable feature, especially in fields close to the house, as it gives 
a park-lawn effect to the surroundings. Sow 3 bushels per acre. Directions in every bag.
