drought and cold, a Permanent dense and deep-rooting turf that would yield year after year the maximum quantity of foliage: These Grasses are of superior 
quality, inviting sweet and nourishing, whether used as hay or pasture. That we have been successful is attested by the numerous letters of praise for these 
special Grass mixturés that we have received from the users, and the tributes to their merits published in many of the agricultural journals. ci
