Grass and Clover Seed Mixtures for Hay and Pastures 



Parcel Post Rates, see Page 5 



These Mixtures give the very best and most satisfactory 

 results to customers, and our trade in them is increasing rapidly. 

 The advantage of sowing grasses and clover seed in mixtures 

 has long been recognized and the practice, is increasing to a 

 very remarkable extent throughout the South. We are the 

 pioneer seedsmen in Baltimore in putting up special mixtures 

 for different soils, and the results to our customers have been 

 exceedingly satisfactory, resulting in largely increased crops both 

 of hay and pasturage. We will take pleasure in advising our 

 customers as to suitable grasses for their soils and purposes. 



We have the following mixtures combined grasses suit- 

 able for the various soils and uses for which they are recom- 

 mended. Those for permanent pastures are composed of grasses 



which succeed each other in growth, and give a succession from 

 the first of Spring until late in Winter, while for those desired 

 more for cutting for hay have combined grasses which ripen 

 together. In all our mixtures we are introducing small 

 quantities of Alfalfa Clover with the idea of inoculating 

 the land with Alfalfa bacillus. Alfalfa revolutionizes farming, 

 but the bacillus must be established before the revolution can 

 occur. The different mixtures are prepared both as to quantity 

 and varieties as best adapted to the soils and situations for 

 which they are recommended. In all of our grass mixtures we 

 use the very best seeds, the quality and purity of our seeds 

 being our first consideration. The quantity handled enables 

 us to give our customers the benefit of a very low price, even 

 lower than if they purchased the seed separately.

Buckwheat 



Buckwheat. For a late Summer crop Buckwheat is very 

 desirable and profitable, especially in mountainous sections. 

 It is easily grown, makes splendid flower food for bees and 

 of a large yield of grain, which can usually be sold for remu- 

 nerative prices. As a smothering crop, where the land contains 

 objectionable weeds, it is very desirable, and it puts the soil 

 in admirable condition for crops to follow. 



1160. Japanese Buckwheat. It has the advantage of re- 

 maining for some time in bloom and produces seed earlier. 

 It resists drought and blight very well. As much as 40 bushels 

 to the acre have been harvested, making it very profitable 

 to raise. Sow 1 bushel per acre. Pk. 60c. Bu. $2.00. Please 

 write us for latest prices. 



1135. Spring Rye. Distinct from the Winter Rye, grain 

 of finer quality and more productive ; can be successfully grown 

 in any latitude, and is now being largely grown in the Middle 

 States in place of oats, being a much more profitable crop on 

 account of the production of nearly four times the straw, and 

 also as a " catch " crop where Winter grain has failed. Produces 

 30 to 40 bushels of grain per acre. As it does not stool like 

 Winter Rye, not less than two bushels to the acre should be 

 sown. Please write for prices. 



Barley 



1209. Beardless Spring Barley. This crop has been sown 

 with satisfactory results for two or three seasons past in this 

 section and further South. It makes a quick growing crop of 

 most excellent and nutritious green feed and is growing in 

 popularity wherever it is used, and will also make a good grain 

 crop, although its principal value is as an early nutritious 

 forage crop, either to feed green or cure as hay. Sow 1% to 2 

 bushels per acre. Please write us for market prices.
