FORREST’S HONEST SEEDS. 
43- 
FARM AND FIELD SEEDS. 
We fully appreciate the importance to the farmer of good seed crops, and if we couldi 
only meet every one and talk over the great vital question to the farmer: “Field Seeds and 
Forage Crops,” how we would enjoy it. We are constantly trying something new. trying to 
get a hundred blades of grass to grow where only one grew before. With what strides we are 
going forward ; we take pride in this branch of our trade. We have a new three-story build¬ 
ing where we can handle and clean our seeds with the best possible results. Our Seed Grain 
is grown especially for seed, and we send it out knowing that it will give you perfect satis¬ 
faction. We have made the lowest price that good pure seed can be sold, and earnestly re¬ 
quest you to give us a trial. 
We will be pleased to send you samples and prices of any field seeds that you intend buy- 
iug, and if there is any inside we will cheerfully give it to you. We are able to give you very 
low prices on some varieties this year. 
All seeds under this head are to be delivered to the express com¬ 
pany or railroad at Cortland, purchaser paying transportation 
charges, unless otherwise ordered. We make no charge for bags or 
cartage. 
CLOVERS. 
White. Valuable to mix with lawn grass. Should be in every mixture for permanent 
pasture ioo lbs. $25. Pound by mail 35c. 
Scarlet, or Crimson. Most valuable crop for green manuring, soiling, hay, pasture 
and ensilage. It is an annual and must be sown every year. Improves worn out and poor 
soils, and is the cheapest and best fertilizer. Being a winter crop it should be sown in Au¬ 
gust and September. Sow 10 to 15 lbs. per acre. Per bushel of 60 lbs. $4.50, pk. $1.35. By 
mail, one lb. 25c. 
Alsike, or Swedish. Thrives in rich, moist soil ; does not succeed on high, dry lands.. 
Six pounds per acre. Per bushel 18.50. One lb. by mail 30c. 
Alfalfa, or Lucerne. Where this succeeds it is the most valuable of all the clovers. 
Requires a very fine, mellow, deep soil. Per 100 lbs. $iS.oo. One lb. by mail 30c. 
Mammoth, or Pea Vine Clover. Very hard to obtaiu nowadays. We have a nice- 
lot that we guarantee. Write for prices. 
THUE G-EASSES. 
Timothy. By far the most popular and valuable hay grass in the 
United States, best and most highly used of all the native grasses, 
too well known to need a description. We will give you very close 
prices; write for samples and prices; lb. postpaid, 18c. 
Orchard Grass. Is one of the best pasture grasses, and is be¬ 
coming more popular every year. To cut for hay, needs cutting 
early when just in bloom; if left to stand it becomes woody and 
tough ; if cut early, it is exceedingly palatable to stock and will 
stand hard cropping as a pasture—will grow in sun or shade. One 
and one-half to two bushels per acre ; per bushel of 14 lbs. $2.00. 
Honest pkt. 5c, lb. 20c, postpaid. 
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 lbs. $[.35, pk. 50c. One lb. by mail 25c.
