CLOVER—Continued 
Crimson Clover. Used very extensively for plowing under to e*rich the 
land and as a cover crop. It is usually sown in August and will make a 
good growth before winter. It does not succeed when sown in the spring. 
It is not hardy and usually winter kills in the North. Extra fine seed. 
Pk. $1.85; Bu. (60 Lbs.) $6.60; 100 Lbs. $11.00. 
SWEET CLOVER. White Blossom. Very high grade Scarified seed. 
Sweet clover makes a fine cover crop and should be used more extensively 
for this purpose. It will grow on rough land where alfalfa would not do 
well. It makes an immense growth and if cut before it is too ripe makes 
excellent hay. It is also valuable for pasture for hogs, sheep and cattle. 
The seed may be sown in the late fall and winter, in early spring or in 
the summer. For summer sowing use scarified seed. Seed not scarified 
germinates slowly and often lies in the ground a long time without 
sprouting.

WHITE DUTCH CLOVER. See also page 3. Used principally for 
lawns and sheep pasture. 
Lb. 55c; 5 Lbs. $2.50 transportation paid. Not paid: 10 Lbs- $4.00; 
25 Lbs. or more at 32c per Lb. 
Wild White Clover (Kent Old Pasture). Wild white clover has long 
been used in England in their famous pastures. It resembles ordinary 
white clover in general appearance, is low growing and tenacious, forming 
a thick sward. Being a legume it adds nitrogen to the soil and will in¬ 
crease the growth of the companion grasses in the pasture. Should 
be in all pasture mixtures, 2 lbs. per acre is sufficient. 
Lb. $2.00 transportation paid. Not paid: 5 Lbs. or more at $1.75 
per Lb. 
CYCLONE SEEDER. This practical broadcast seeder should be on every 
farm. It is well made, easy to adjust and sows evenly and accurately. 
Price $2.50 each. Transportation paid. 
GRASSES for PASTURE and HAY 
25 Lbs. or more will be supplied at 100 Lb. rate. 
KENTUCKY BLUE GRASS. See also page 4. One of the best grasses 
for pasture and lawns. It starts to grow very early and remains green 
late in the fall. It does well on either high, dry land or places that are 
quite moist. The standard weight of a bushel of seed is 14 pounds, but 
the recleaned seed we sell weighs over 21 pounds per measure bushel. 
Lb. 35c transportation paid. Not paid: 10 Lbs. $2.50; 100 Lbs. $21.00. 
RED TOP. Fancy Recleaned Seed. See also page 4. (Called“Hurds 
Grass” in the South.) Valuable for both low and high land. Grows 2 to 3 
feet high, and makes very good hay. We offer finest recleaned seed 
weighing 32 pounds per bushel which is superior to much of the Red 
Top offered. 
Lb. 30c transportation paid. Not paid: 10 Lbs. $1.80; 100 Lbs. $14.00. 
Canadian Blue Grass. A more rapid grower than Kentucky Blue Grass 
and equally good for pasture, but not as suitable for lawns. This is an 
excellent pasture grass for poor dry land and should be used more for 
this purpose. Fancy high grade seed. 
Lb. 45c transportation paid. Not paid: 10 Lbs. $2.80; 100 Lbs. $24.00. 
Meadow Fescue, or English Blue Grass. Of great value for permanent 
pasture and for hay. Does best on strong land. Grows 2 feet high. 
Makes a finer and better quality of hay than Orchard grass. 
Lb. 30c transportation paid. Not paid: 10 Lbs. $2.00; 100 Lbs. $16.00. 
Tall Meadow Oat Grass. A valuable grass for meadows and pasture. 
Does best on rather light soil but will grow well on heavier land. Starts 
very early in the spring and makes a rapid growth and on this account 
should be included in all mixtures for pastures and hay on light soil. 
Lb. 45c transportation paid. Not paid: 10 Lbs. $3.40; 100 Lbs. $30.00. 
TIMOTHY. One of the most popular grasses for hay and pasture. W e 
sell only the choicest recleaned seed. 
Pk. 90c; Bu. (45 Lbs. $3.00; 100 Lbs. $6.65; Sack of 3 Bu. (135 Lbs.) 
$8.90. Price subject to market changes. Lowest price will be quoted 
at any time. Purchaser pays transportation. 
Timothy and Alsike Mixed. (25% Alsike Clover.) An excellent mix¬ 
ture to sow either for hay or pasture. As it requires considerable time 
and expense to separate the Clover seed from Timothy when grown to¬ 
gether, the mixed seed can be sold cheaper than the two separate. The 
mixture we offer contains 25% Alsike Clover. It is an unusually fine lot 
of seed much superior to most mixtures which contain only 11 to 15% 
Alsike. 
Pk. (iiy 4 Lbs.) $1.30; Bu. (45 Lbs.) $4.60; 100 Lbs. $10.00; Bag of 
3 Bu. (135 Lbs.) $13.25. Purchaser pays transportation. 
English Perennial Rye Grass. This is a desirable grass for pasture as it 
forms a heavy close sod and grows up quickly after being eaten or cut off. 
Good for hay if cut when in bloom and affords good pasture after hay is 
cut. Does best on moist and heavy soil. 
Lb. 30c transportation paid. Not paid: 10 Lbs. $2.00; 100 Lbs. $16.00. 
ORCHARD GRASS. A strong growing, rather coarse grass, good for 
pasture and hay. Starts very early in the spring. Grows in tufts so 
should be sown with other early flowering grasses. Grows rapidly after 
being cut and affords good pasture within 10 days after cutting. Stands 
drought well as the roots extend deep into the soil. Highest grade seed. 
Lb. 35c transportation paid. Not paid: 10 Lbs. $2.40; 100 Lbs. $20.00. 
Other Grasses can be supplied. Please write for price on what you want, 
stating quantities required. 
MIXTURES FOR PASTURES AND HAY 
PASTURE MIXTURES 
To get a really good pasture that will last for many years it is necessary 
to sow grasses that will form a close, heavy turf and such as are not injured 
by close cropping and trampling of animals. There are many grasses of 
this kind. Some start early in the spring and others continue growing late 
in the fall, so a considerable number of different kinds should be used in 
order to maintain a continuous growth for a constant supply of good pas¬ 
turage during the whole season. 
Cornell Pasture Mixture for 1936 
Formula for Permanent Pastures—Recommended by the 
New York State College of Agriculture 
This mixture has been developed as a result of much time and study to 
improve the permanent pastures of New York and is recommended by 
Cornell for permanent pastures in New York State and vicinity. It has 
been found that it will do well under a great variety of conditions 
of soil and moisture. It is composed only of high quality seed of the 
proper plants and includes wild white clover, one of the most important 
plants in the famous permanent pastures of England. This mixture may 
be seeded either on plowed or harrowed land and when grazed properly 
will produce more high protein feed to the acre than any farm crops ordinarily 
grown for feed. 
Our mixture confirms exactly to the strict requirements of the Cornell 
specifications for the percentage of the various grasses and wild white 
clover and in most cases the seed we use greatly exceeds the minimum 
germination and purity demanded. We use only the best grasses we can 
possibly obtain. Sample or analysis gladly sent on request. 
Leaflets issued by Cornell University giving specifications of the mixture 
and directions for fertilization, seeding and management of permanent 
pastures will be sent with each order. We will gladly send you a copy on 
request. 
10 Lbs. $3.60; 100 lbs. $32.00. Purchaser pays transportation. 
(25 Lbs. or more at the 100 Lb. price) 
Short, thick turf makes the best pasturage.
