AGRICULTURAL TEACHERS: The radio is the greatest 
educational invention of modern times. A small set on your 
desk will be a wonderful help to yourself and students—espe¬ 
cially the broadcasts by the Agricultural Department at Wash¬ 
ington, D. C. If you care to make up the amount to purchase 
either of these radios among your students for use in your school, 
I will donate $3.00 on the purchase price. This offer also applies 
to those who will install the radio in a public place for benefit 
of those interested in agricultural broadcasts. 
We have a Grunow 460 in operation at our Store.

THE SOUTH NEEDS MORE PASTURES 
Grass “buries the mistakes of mankind.” There is sore need 
for it to perform such a mission now. For the mistakes of man¬ 
kind scar the land. 
For several years past we have had an enormous demand 
from customers all over the South for mixtures of grass and 
clover seeds suitable for permanent pastures. 
Scientifically prepared mixtures of grasses and clovers adapted 
to growing with each other will, in most cases, give much better 
results than would be the case if one, or even two, plants were 
sown alone. The soil in the same fenced pasture may vary con¬ 
siderably in both quality and texture, and particularly in such 
cases a properly prepared mixture will demonstrate its superior¬ 
ity over any one or two plants sown alone. This, as well as other 
advantages, are to be gained, we find, in sowing different clovers 
and grasses in a mixture—one serves as a nurse crop for the 
other, and they do better than when sown alone. 
We have given this matter a great deal of study—visited nu¬ 
merous pastures in different sections in order to get first-hand 
information direct from the parties who actually planted the 
seed. 
With the above information, we now offer you prepared mix¬ 
tures, carefully proportioned, for different sections of the South, 
which we believe will prove satisfactory to our customers. 
The quantity of seed to be sown per acre varies according to 
the condition of the soil and the method and care used in plant¬ 
ing. Measured in pounds, the quantities vary according to the 
size of the different seeds. 
All grass seeds listed on pages 61, 62 and 63. Read carefully 
our five mixtures on page 63 to determine the one best suited 
to your needs.

HULLED BERMUDA GRASS 
Revolutionizing Bermuda Lawn-Planting 
1102—HULLED BERMUDA GRASS — Same as unhulled, on 
page 61, but the hull is removed. This new process promotes 
quicker germination. Our tests show that the hulled type will 
germinate fully within 8 to 10 days, while the regular unhulled 
types takes from 21 to 30 days. This should revolutionize the 
planting of Bermuda lawns, the only objection to Bermuda 
seeding before being the length of time necessary for germina¬ 
tion. It is more economical; half the quantity of seed required 
per 100 square feet for planting; and Bermuda will stand more 
hot sun and tramping than any grass known. 
1 lb., 60c; 5 lbs., $2.50; 10 lbs., $4.75; 15 lbs., $6.95 
1123—POA TRIVIALIS—A fibrous rooted perennial grass that is 
valuable on account of its quick growth, productiveness and 
nutritious qualities. It starts early in the spring and continues 
green till late in the fall, growing to perfection on rich, moist 
soils and in shaded places. As it prefers shelter, the best results 
are had by sowing it with other grasses, such as red top or herd’s 
grass and Kentucky blue grass. A splendid grass for mixed 
permanent pastures.

ABOUT SORGHUMS 
One well-known authority writes: Your letter of October 18 
in regard to the identification of varieties of sorghum in the 
threshed grain brings up the problem that we have been strug¬ 
gling with here for many years. There seems to be no one who 
can identify even a majority of the different varieties of sor¬ 
ghum with a high degree of accuracy. The sorghums cross or 
hybridize readily in the field and, since they have been used 
mainly for forage, particularly the sweet-juiced varieties, there 
has not been a very consistent attempt to keep them pure.
