FROM OUR SEED FARMS DIRECT TO THE PLANTER 31 
GRASS SEED 
It is of the greatest importance to the progressive farmer that the utmost care be exercised in the selec¬ 
tion of suitable Grasses for hay or permanent pasture, and satisfactory results can be obtained only by the use 
of first-class seed—pure and clean. The initial cost 
may be a little higher, but the returns are immensely 
more lucrative than those gained from cheap seed 
of inferior quality. 
We have had long experience in the handling of 
high-grade Grass seeds, and it is gratifying to know 
that we have succeeded in giving satisfaction to an 
ever increasing circle of customers. 
We offer below choice, recleaned seed—practically 
free from chaff or other foreign matter. 
As the Grass seed market fluctuates greatly, we 
are unable to fix permanent prices, but will be 
pleased to quote figures upon application.
