Suggested for seeding on the acreage taken out of Cotton, Tobacco, Wheat, and Corn 
One of the ways, permitted by the Agricultural Adjustment Administration, of handling contracted acreage, in connection with 
acreage-control contracts covering surplus agricultural products, is seeding to meadows or pastures. To prevent erosion of soil, to 
control weeds, and to provide grazing, seeding is quite desirable in many cases, and several formulas have been recommended by 
the Department of Agriculture. 
FOR GOOD, WELL-DRAINED SOIL IN THE NORTH. 35% Kentucky Blue Grass, 30% Timothy, 20% Fancy Red-Top, 5% Alsike 
Clover, 10% Red Clover. 
FOR POOR, WELL-DRAINED SOIL IN THE NORTH. 20% Orchard Grass or Canada Blue Grass, 40% Timothy, 30% Fancy Red-Top, 
10% Alsike Clover. 
FOR WET, POORLY DRAINED SOIL IN THE NORTH. 30% Timothy, 50% Red-Top, 20% Alsike Clover. 
FOR GOOD, WELL-DRAINED SOIL IN THE MID-SOUTH. 30% Kentucky Blue Grass, 25% Timothy, 5 % Red Clover, 30% Les- 
pedeza, 10% Red-Top. 
FOR POOR, WELL-DRAINED SOIL IN THE MID-SOUTH. 30% Orchard Grass, 20% Red-Top, 10% Timothy, 40% Lespedeza. 
FOR MOIST, SANDY SOIL IN THE SOUTH. 30% Carpet Grass, 70% Lespedeza. 
These formulas, of course, may vary to meet local conditions. 
Rates ot seeding depend on the preparation of the soil, quality of seed, and results desired. Twenty pounds per acre we would consider 
the extreme minimum rate under favorable conditions, and where time element is not very important. 
We shall be glad to make recommendations for your particular purpose

PASTURE PLANTS AND PASTURE MIXTURES 
Timothy, Red-Top, and Red Clover have long formed the standard hay and pasture mixture for use on the American farm. It 
is not an ideal combination, but iS inexpensive and we offer it under the heading of Timothy-Red-Top-Clover Formula. For 
large yield and nutrition, we recommend that a much wider variety than this be sown, using in addition to the above such types 
as Orchard Grass, Meadow Foxtail, Sheep’s Fescue, Rhode Island Bent, Fiorin or German Bent, and Triple A Bent, Sweet-scented 
Vernal, Meadow Fescue, the Rye Grasses, the Blue Grasses, Oat Grass, Red, Mammoth, White, Wild White and Alsike Clovers; 
each of these is suited especially to certain kinds of soil and climatic conditions; some do well on high ground, others prefer plenty of 
moisture. It is necessary that these be selected in proper proportions, suitable to the soil conditions and for the purpose required. 
We use only the best recleaned seeds in these mixtures.
