There is no more important part of a farm than a good pasture, and that can only be 

 obtained by the use of the proper Grasses, varieties that have different root formations and 

 different habits and season of growth, in order to maintain a rich, close turf throughout 

 the entire season. Timothy should never be used for pasture, because it will not stand 

 trampling, and soon runs out when heavily pastured and at best is short-lived, as compared 

 with the permanent Grasses used in our Special Mixtures. These Mixtures contain over 

 a dozen of the best permanent Grasses, both American-grown and imported. All are 

 permanent, and when once established will last indefinitely, if the fertility of the soil is 

 kept up by occasional top-dressing;. Owing to the different habits of growth, the Grasses 

 grow closer together and form a rich, close turf, covering the soil completely and forming 

 a protection to the roots during hot, dry weather, thereby enabling these Grasses to main- 

 tain a rich green appearance when Timothy and other Grasses are burned up. The thick 

 turf also prevents animals poaching through and destroying the pasture. 



We have for years studied the subject of pastures and their formation with exhaustive 

 tests on our own trial farms, where we have had growing separatelj^ and in different Mixtures 

 all the Grasses of which seed can be procured in commercial quantities. These trials have 

 been broadly studied and the results watched with critical interest on the farms of our 

 customers. We are in an unrivaled position to advise you on the subject and to supply 

 suitable Grass seeds for Permanent Pasture. While it costs a little more to seed an acre 

 with this Special Mixture, yet results are so superior and permanent that they more than 

 offset the original cost. Sow not less than 3 bushels per acre. Directions enclosed in 

 every bag. PRICE, $2.75 per bushel of 14 lbs.; 50 bushels @ $2.65; 100 bushels @ $2.60.
