MAY'S FAMOUS HOG PASTURE MIXTURES 
For several years past we have made up for a number of our customers a 
special mixture for their Hog Pasture. In our experience we find that hogs 
can be raised more profitably on grass and clover than on corn only. It is 
just as easy and certainly more convenient, to provide clover and grasses 
as corn, the pigs will do the work themselves, gaining flesh, besides keeping 
healthy and strong. Quick results and a full crop and use of the pasture 
can be had the first summer from the properly selected mixture. 
No T Pasture, clover grass mixture for quick results and a full 
• <jrop the first year. When sown early in the spring the heavy 
growth of the grasses and clover will furnish a fine pasture throughout the 
summer. By careful experiments we find that Crimson Clover, in the right 
proportion, used with other grasses, is well adapted to this mixture. Mam- 
moth Clover, English Rye. Italian Rve, Crimson Clover, Tall Meadow Oat.
