NEBRASKA GROWN KENTUCKY BLUE GRASS. 
We harvest our own blue grass in the northern ter¬ 
ritory and you will find it superior to southern grown 
seed, for this section. The greatest care is exer¬ 
cized in the selection of our seed to obtain that 
which is free of weed seeds. 
SEED OF THE BENT GRASSES. For lawns the 
Bent grass seed is preferred to the creeping Bent 
stolons because these types of Bent do not grow 
so rapidly and do not require so much top dressing. 
Seed at the rate of 3 to 4 lbs. per 1000 sq. ft. 
ASTORIA BENT GRASS. This grass has creep¬ 
ing roots and makes a splendid lawn and golf grass. 
Requires less care than the aggresive surface creep¬ 
ers. Vi lb., 45c; y 2 lb., 80c; 1 lb., $1.50. 
FANCY KENTUCKY BLUE GRASS (Poa pra- 
tensis). Extra Fancy Sun Cured Seed. Specially 
recleaned. Extra heavy. 1 lb., 30c; 10 lbs., $2.50. 
Fancy Seed, actual weight, 21 lbs. per bu. (Stand¬ 
ard grade of recleaned blue grass.) 1 lb., 25c; 
10 lbs., $2.00. 
ENGLISH OR PERENNIAL RYE (Lolium 
Perenne). The hay grass of England where its 
position is the same as Timothy in the United States. 
Also does very well in this country. Good for both 
pasture and meadows. Moist and rich clays or 
loams are the soils best suited to it. The seed is 
heavy and very quick to start. It is a valuable lawn 
grass, especially where quick results are sought. 
Sow 50 to 60 lbs. to the acre. 1 lb., 25c; 10 lbs., 
$ 2 . 00 . 
ITALIAN RYE GRASS. In nutritive value, earli¬ 
ness and quickness of growth after it has been 
mown, it far surpasses the Perennial Rye Grass. It 
is, therefore, indispensable for alternate husbandry; 
but as it does not last over two years, it is of no 
use in permanent pastures. The soils best adapted 
to Italian Rye Grass seem to be those that are moist, 
fertile and tenacious, or of a medium consistency, 
and on such soils it is said to be one of the best 
grasses known to cut green, affording repeated 
luxuriant and nutritive crops. Sow 30 to 40 lbs. 
to the acre. 1 lb., 20c; 10 lbs., $1.50. 
MEADOW FESCUE OR ENGLISH BLUE GRASS 
(F. Pratensis). Grows two or three feet high, but 
never in large tufts like Orchard Grass. One of 
the earliest, most nutritious and productive grasses. 
It is especially suitable for permanent pasture; 
thrives well in all soils, but to best advantage on 
moist lands. Makes good hay and cattle thrive well 
on it, whether dry or in a green state. It succeeds 
well even in poor soil, and, as its roots penetrate 
the earth twelve to fifteen inches, it is not affected 
except by exceedingly dry weather, and is as val¬ 
uable a fertilizer as Red Clover. It is one of the 
hardiest grasses after a good stand is secured; it 
will stand more freezing than any other variety. 
It yields an abundant crop of seed, about eight to 
ten bushels per acre, which can be threshed by any 
threshing machine. Notwithstanding its acknowl¬ 
edged merits, this grass has been sown only to a 
limited extent in this country. It is deserving of 
much more attention than it has heretofore received 
from our western farmers. Sow about 12 to 18 
lbs. per acre in spring or fall. 1 lb., 20c; 10 lbs., 
$1.50. 
ORCHARD GRASS (Dactylis Glomerata). No 
farm should be without a small field of Orchard 
grass, as in many respects it is superior to all other 
grasses, stands the drouth, grows well in the 
shade, does well in wet and poor ground, and is 
splendid to prevent worn-out fields from washing. 
This grass furnishes excellent pasturage three weeks 
before any other and after close grazing, ten days’ 
rest is sufficient to produce another growth. Cows 
fed on this will produce more and richer milk than 
on Blue Grass. It makes a very heavy sod, and 
when well set remains for many years. It is es¬ 
pecially adapted for winter grazing, as it remains 
green all the season. Sow 25 to 30 lbs. to the acre. 
1 lb., 25c; 10 lbs., $2.00. 
RED TOP GRASS (Agrostis Alba). Extra fancy 
recleaned solid seed. 1 lb., 35c; 2 lbs., 70c. 
WHITE CLOVER. Extra fancy seed. 1 lb., 50c; 
5 lbs., $2.25; 10 lbs., $4.00. 
Meadow Fescue
