SUGGESTED PASTURE MIXTURES 
These mixtures are the result of years of 
experience with thousands of customers. 
We recommend them but, at the same time, 
our experience tells us that they do not 
meet all conditions or needs. These sug¬ 
gestions from our experience are priced on 
our regular price sheet. We shall be glad 
to quote price on other mixtures you may 
desire or to suggest mixtures for your par¬ 
ticular requirement or soil conditions. 
We consider grassland and pasture seed 
one of the most important parts of our busi¬ 
ness. Much time, thought and money is 
devoted to it. Only the best quality, solid 
seed of high purity and good germination 
goes into our mixtures. Should you ques¬ 
tion this statement in any way, we'll be 
happy to sell you the seed separately so 
you can mix it yourself. We guarantee 
full value.
