GRASS SEEDS 



Bolgiano's "Gold Brand" Seeds are the Standard of Purity. 



1117 TUVflOTHY °^ Hay Grasses T i moth y is one °f the most popular, nutritious 

 * HVlv/ 1 n 1 an( j 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 1% 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 pre- 

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



Fesque. Together, these will produce most excellent hay , also nutritious and abundant pasture 



in good loamy, clay or low ground soils. 8 lb. Timothy and 6 lb. Clover when sown together, 



"Gold" Brand, 10c Lb. Bus. of 45 Lbs. $2.25. "Silver" Choice $2.00. Market fluctuates. 



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 pasturage 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. 18c. Bu. of 



14 Lbs. $2.25. "Silver" Choice $2.10. Bu. Special prices in quantity. 



1120. Native or Canada Blue Grass. At the Maryland Experiment Station this grass re- 

 mained a luxuriant green during the hottest summer when other grasses were materially affect- 

 ed 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. $1.75. 



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, giv- 

 ing very good results on light soils, and the very best 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 itspreads, 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, sow 5 pounds 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. 20c. 10 Lbs. or over <3> 14c Lb. 



Silver Choice, 10 Lbs. or over ®> 13%c. Lb. Prices fluctuate; quoted upon application. 



1122. Meadow Fesque. Randall or English Blue Grass. It makes a most excellent hay and 



pasturage grass, and is particularly valuable for fall and winter pastvirage, and 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 for pasturage and hay mixtures, being specially suitable for 



sowing with Red Top and Timothy for hay, or with these and Orchard and Tall Meadow Oat 



for permanent 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. Timo- 

 thy per acre. Sown for a grazing mix- 

 ture with Ore hard and Tall Meadow Oat Grass, add

RYE GRASSES FOR SPRING PLANTING 



The Italian and Perennial Rye Grasses are really the quickest growing of anv of the grasses, 

 and will furnish a quick growing, most nutritious and leafy pasturage, at the same time making 

 very good hay grasses. On account of their quick, early growth, they should be a constituent 

 part of nearly all hay and pasturage mixtures. 



1121. English or Perennial Rye Grass. A nutri- 

 tious, permanent grass for meadows, pastures and 

 mixing with others for lawns. When sown by itself, 

 sow 30 pounds per acre, either in the spring or fall.

 1172. Italian Rye Grass. It succeeds well on all 

 soils and will stand more overflow than any other 

 grass. "Gold" Brand 15c Lb. Bu. of 14 Lbs. $1.10. 

 1187. Hard Fesque. Thrives well in dry situations, 

 where many other grasses fail; 30 lbs. te the acre.

 grass, roots deeply, and forms dense short turf , fur- 

 nishes excellent grazing. Sow 2 to 3 bushels per 

 acre, if sown by itself. Sow about 25 pounds per acre. Lb. 20c. Bu. of 14 Lbs. $2.50.

 1116. Bromus Inermis or Awnless Broom Grass. Both for grazing and for hay it is of especial 

 value in mixtures with other grasses. Cattle graze on it with relish. Sow Seed in the Spring or 

 Fall, 25 to 30 lbs. per acre. Price, "Gold" Brand 15c Lb. Bu. 14 Lbs. $1.60. 



MILLETS 



GERMAN or GOLDEN MILLET, Southern Grown 



1125. Makes a large yielding and most nutritious 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 allowed to form, the stalks get hard and it does not make near so good a hay. 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 seeding. Our Southern grown Millet makes much better growth than western or 

 northern grown seed. "Gold" Brand Southern Grown Millet, $1.75 per Bu. of 50 Lbs. 



1126. Hungarian Millet. 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 until the end of July, at the rate of one bushel per acre. "Gold" Brand 

 $1.75 per Bus. 



1170. Pearl or Cattail Millet.Pencillaria.We have been experimenting with all the known forage 

 plants, and have found nothing superior to Pearl Millet either in enormous growth or quality. It 

 has produced the most abundantly and can be cut several times during the season. The United 

 States Agricultural Department has also made experiments, and with about the same results. If 

 you grow green forage, try Pearl Millet, and you will find there is nothing better. Drill in 2-foot 

 rows, 10 Lbs. to the acre. Pkt. 5c. Lb. 10c. 10 Lbs. and over Cm yy 2C per Lb. 100 Lb. lots and
