OUR SPEUAL MIXTURES \ 
for hay are composed principally of grasses which » 
ripen together for the first cutting; but they also con- - 
tarn smaller proportions of other grasses which will ■ 
increase considerably the second cutting, and also add • 
very much to the pasturage yield, in case it is desired « 
to use the fields for pasturage afterward. These grass ; 
mixtures afford splendid crops of hay of the finest • 
quality and highest feeding value, and after being cut ; 
will give continuous and abundant pasturage of the ; 
richest and most nutritious character till winter • 
comes. Fields sown will last for years. ;

What Grass and Clover Mixtures Should I Sow? 
In an effort to help our customers choose the correct grass and clover 
mixtures for best results in their particular locality, we are showing a map 
of the Eastern United States which will be of help in securing the correct 
seeds. 
UNSHADED PORTION—We suggest the use of Wood’s Special Grass 
and Clover Mixtures Nos. 1 to 9. The grasses in these mixtures are well 
adapted to these sections as well as States further north and west than 
shown on the map. 
SHADED PORTION—In this section of the country, the finer grasses will 
not thrive during the long summer months. For these localities. Wood s 
Southern Permanent Pasture and Hay Mixture will thrive and give long, 
lasting crops. These sections are also especially adapted for sowing oi 
Carpet Grass, Bermuda Grass, and all lespedezas except Korean. 
Why Sow Mixed Grasses 
All authorities agree that a mixture of grasses will yield a better crop 
than a single grass. 
The greater the number of grasses in a mixture the thicker the stand, and 
a more prolonged growth is produced. 
Mixtures occupy the ground more completely than a single grass and help 
■*■0 keep out weeds.
