Grasses—Continued 
HERD’S GRASS, OR RED TOP—This excellent pasture and 
hay grass does well on any soil, but thrives best on moist, 
heavy soils. It spreads and thickens from year to year, and 
will gradually supplant other grasses. Matures at the same 
time as Timothy, with which it makes a good mixture. Sow 
10 to 12 lbs. to the acre. 
D. & B.’S VELVET GREEN LAWN GRASS makes beau¬ 
tiful Lawns. 
ORCHARD GRASS—This is one of the most reliable grasses 
for hay or pasture grown in this section, making a quick, 
vigorous and continuous growth from early Spring to Win¬ 
ter. Sow 25 lbs. to the acre in the Spring or Fall and in 
any soil; loamy upland is best. It is excellent to mix with 
other grasses. 
TALL MEADOW OAT GRASS—A most valuable grass for 
the South, as it stands heat and drought well and flourishes 
on dry, light soils. Splendid for pastures and for hay; it 
may be cut twice in a season. Sow 25 lbs. to the acre. 
KENTUCKY BLUE GRASS—This grass succeeds best on 
limestone soils, but does well on any godo stiff soil. Stands 
cold, but does not do well in extreme heat. Grows slowly at 
first, making a thick, compact turf. Used for lawns or pas¬ 
tures. Sow either in the Fall or Spring. 30 to 35 lbs. to the 
acre. 
DOMESTIC RYE GRASS—Good for hay and pastures, if sown 
on strong, moist soil, but does not stand drought well. It 
grows rapidly and matures very early. Sow 30 lbs. to acre. 
COLONIAL BENT—A very valuable grass for pasture and 
lawns and is particularly recommended for golf links, as it 
stands trampling perhaps as well or better than any other 
grass. 
RED FESCUE—Used for lawns and golf course mixtures. 
BERMUDA GRASS—A valuable grass for permanent sod, and 
especially recommended for dams and terraces, as it hsa long, 
tough roots and of a matty growth; prevents land washing; 
would not advise sowing on land which is to be planted in 
other crops, as it is very tenacious in habit and very hard 
to eradicate after it once gets a hold; for this reason is used 
extensively on golf links. It is very similar to our Virginia 
Wire Grass. Sow in March or April, August and September, 
about 10 pounds to the acre, in well prepared soil. Seeds 
are slow to germinate. 
SUDAN GRASS—This is an annual grass and if seeded in 
May can be cut twice and with favorable seasons three times 
a year, but it can be seeded as late as July and w’ll make 
one cutting. Grows 6 to 10 feet high, when drilled.
