FORREST’S HONEST SEEDS

Bermuda Grass — One of the most valuable Southern grasses. This is a most valuable peren¬ 
nial pasturage grass all through the South, and also produces good yields of hay in the far South. 
It is very well adapted to light soils, and in some sections of the South is the only pasturage grass 
that will make a good sod on this class of soil. This variety also does very well on the clay and 
loamy soils. It is rather late in starting in the spring, but stands hot, dry weather remarkably 
well, making a most valuable summer pasturage grass. It will furnish more summer pasturage 
during hot dry spells than any other grass we have ever had experience with. Lb. 60c, postpaid. 
By express or freight, 45c lb. 
PERMANENT PASTURE MIXTURES 
Below we offer the best Permanent Pasture Mixture that we believe it is possible to produce. 
Clover and Timothy runs out in so short a time, we have spared no expense to make the following 
mixtures what its name implies, and can be depended on from ten to fifteen years: 
Permanent Pasture Mixture for Light and Sandy Soils—We recommend about 4 bu. to 
the acre, at $2.25 a bu. 
Permanent Pasture Mixture for Medium Soils—3 bu. per acre, at $2.25 a bu. 
Permanent Pasture Mixture for Heavy Soils—3 bu. per acre, at $2.25 per bu. 
BUCKWHEAT 
New Japanese—The kernels are nearly twice the size of any other, of a rich, dark-brown 
color, and manufactures a superior flour. Owing to its branching character, only one-half as 
much seed per acre is required, while the straw is much stiffer and stands up better. Pound 20c, 
3 lbs. 50c, by mail, postpaid; by express, qt. 10c, pk. 50c, bu. $1.50, 5 bu. and over $1.35 per bu., 
sacks included. 
Silver Hull—Sown at same time as common buckwheat, this variety continues to bloom longer 
and yields nearly double. The flour is whiter and more nutritious. Pound 25c, 3 lbs. 60c, post¬ 
paid; by express, qt. 10c, pk. 50c, bu. $1.35, 5 bu. or more $1.25 per bu. 
RYE 
Spring—Distinct and valuable. A more profitable crop than oats. Distinct from the winter 
rye, grain of finer quality, and more productive; can be successfully grown in any latitude, and 
is now being largely sown in the Middle States in place of oats, being a much more profitable crop 
on account of the production of nearly four times the straw, and also as a “catch” crop where win¬ 
ter grain has failed. The straw is equally as valuable as that of the fall and winter rye, standing 
stiff 7 to 8 feet high. Produces 30 to 40 bushels of grain per acre. As it does not stool like winter 
rye, not less than two bushels to the acre should be sown. Honest pkt. 5c, lb. 15c, 3 lbs. 40c, 
postpaid; by express or freight, pk. 50c, bu. $1.75, 2 bu. $3.25. 
Winter Rye—By freight or express, pk. 40c, bu. $1.35, 2}^ bu. bag $3.00. 
BARLEY 
Success Beardless—A new and distinct variety, fully a week or ten days earlier than any 
barley known. Height same as common barley, but better straw, and will stand up on any land. 
A good yielder, six-rowed. Price, honest pkt. 5c, lb. 15c, 3 lbs. 40c, postpaid; by express or 
freight, bu. $1.50, bags free; 2bu. bag $3.50. 
Common—We are headquarters on Barley. For sowing for a forage crop is being used very 
extensively. The early frosts do not kill it and it can be pastured clear into the winter. If cut 
in September it makes good hay. Price per bu. $1.25, 5 bu. lots at $1.10.
