FORREST’S HONEST SEEDS 
Kentucky Blue—In conjunction with white clover, it forms the 
finest and closest turf. As a pasture grass, it furnishes for winter the 
most nourishing food for cattle. Thrives on a variety of soils, but does 
best in dry and somewhat shady localities. Four bushels for lawn and 
one-and-one-half bushels per acre for pasture. Extra fine, clean. 
Bushel of 14 tbs. $3.00, pk. 85c. One pound by mail 30c. 
Canadian Blue Grass—A hardy perennial, growing on poorest and 
dryest soils. Short (6 to 18 inches.) Hard and wiry, but high in nu¬ 
tritive value. Decidedly blue in color. Stems flattened. Invaluable 
for use on steep places or exposed situations. Sow 3 bushels to acre.

valuable, both for pasture and lawns. Sow about two bushels per acre 
if sown by itself. Lb. 25c, postpaid. By express or freight, bu. (14 pounds) $1.75. 
Awnless Brome Grass— (Bromus Inermis.) The best 
new grass for pasture or hay. Most valuable grass for dry 
lands. It endures extreme temperatures, and resists pro¬ 
tracted drought, succeeding where Alfalfa fails. Poor 
lands are no discouragement. It grows best in light, sandy 
loam, but its roots will penetrate the stiffest clays. It is 
equally good for cutting green, pasturing, or making hay.

on another acre plot 2 tons were cut June 28, and 2,600 
pounds at second cutting, August 19. Honest pkt. 5c,
