Buckbee's "P"" Grass and Clover Seed Mixtures 



Yield 50 to 100 per cent, more Hay and Grazing than sowing one or two Grasses or Clover alone 



All authorities agree that for Pasture and Hay best results are obtained from the use of Grass Seeds IN MIXTURE The 

 advantage of sowing Grasses and Clover Seeds in mixtures has lous been recognized and the practice is increasing to a verv re- 

 markable extent all over the country. The reasons are obvious: First— A number of species -will insure a much denser erowth 

 than the same number of seeds of one or two species, and prove less exhausting to the soil, since thev live to a great extent on 

 different constituents. Second— Seasons that effect some Grasses adversely are favorable to other sorts ; so that with Mixtures 

 failure is practically impossible provided, of course, the seed is good. We have in the following Mixtures a combination of Grasses 

 suitable for the various soils and uses for which they are recommended. In all of our Grass Mixtures we take great pains in se- 

 lecting the very best seeds only. We pride ourselves in having the most up-to-date methods of thoroughly testing our seeds in 

 our testing house, and every variety must show not only a high germination but must be of a strong and vigorous growth while 

 the quality and purity of the seeds are given our most careful consideration. '
