PERENNIAL PASTURE MIXTURE 
UPLAND AND LOWLAND 
Most pastures in the Northwest are dead or else the grass is so thin that the weeds have taken pos¬ 
session. Why not replant at least part of your pasture with Gurney’s Upland or Lowland Pasture Mixtures? 
A pasture of properly blended grass will pasture twice as much livestock as an ordinary pasture. 
Our Pasture Mixtures are made up principally of the hardy grasses which have withstood the last 
seven years of drouth— Bromus and Western Wheat Grass. We have added smaller amounts of 
Crested Wheat Grass, Rye Grass, Red Top, Timothy, Orchard Grass, Meadow Fescue, Blue Grass, and 
a small amount of different clovers. 
This makes a Good Pasture from early in the spring through the hot, dry summer, and late in the fall 
until the pasture is covered with snow. 
If you want your cows to stand belly deep in a permanent pasture of rich, succulent grasses, plant 
Gurney’s Pasture Mixtures. The additional cream checks will pay the bill. Plant from 18 to 20 pounds 
per acre. 
When ordering, state whether for low or high land. 
1 lb., 25c; 5 lbs., 95c; 10 lbs., $1.75; 25 lbs., $4.05; 50 lbs., $7.75; 100 lbs., $14.95. 
★ BROME GRASS LOT A-l 
When driving through the country in the early 
spring, you have probably seen a pasture that is 
green long before any other. If you have, it was 
undoubtedly Bromus. 
This strong growing, hardy perennial grass starts as 
soon as the ground thaws, and continues green and 
luxuriant long after the first frosts. It will stand almost 
any amount of heat and drouth, and still produce a lot of 
pasture or hay. It succeeds on almost any soil. Grows 
about 3 to 4 feet tall and yields from 1 Vt to 3 tons of 
excellent hay per acre. 
There is a lot of difference in Bromus seed, and 
before purchasing elsewhere, I would like to have you 
send for a sample of this heavy, well cleaned, high quality 
seed. Bromus will settle your pasture problem.

★ A NEW PASTURE MIXTURE 
20% Alfalfa, 50% Bromus, 25% Crested Wheat 
Grass, 5% Sweet Clover 
Alfalfa in pastures is now recommended by most of the 
experiment stations. The Bromus and Crested Wheat 
Grass make a sod heavy enough to prevent the growth of 
weeds in the Alfalfa. 
The alfalfa adds to the protein in the feed, as well as 
gathering nitrogen from the air, and enriches the soil. 
The grass in this Alfalfa Grass Pasture will often be a 
foot taller than these same grasses growing alone. 
All of the experiment stations say this Mixture can be 
pastured without any danger of bloat. 
Plant this new perennial Alfalfa Grass Mixture, and 
have a pasture that will beat any other for quality and 
quantity. 
Plant 20 pounds per acre. 
I lb., 30c; 5 lbs., $1.20; 10 lbs., $2.25; 25 lbs., 
$5.25; 50 lbs., $10.15; 100 lbs., $19.75. 
★ WESTERN WHEAT OR SALT GRASS 
This is the grass that the Government has used in 
its Soil Conservation work. It is a native of western 
Dakota, and this year has come back stronger than 
ever, taking the place of many of the other grasses 
which could not stand many years of drouth and grass¬ 
hoppers. It makes a good yield of extra quality, highly 
nutritious hay. Cattle fed Western Wheat Grass can 
be corn fed and marketed in a much shorter feeding pe¬ 
riod than when fed any of the softer grasses. Plant at 
the rate of 20 pounds per acre. 
This year the price Is down where everyone can 
plant It. 
1 lb., 25c; 5 lbs., 85c; 10 lbs., $1.50; 25 lbs., $3.50; 
50 lbs., $6.65; 100 lbs., $12.75.

★ REED CANARY OR PHALARIS 
A magnificent grass for wet, low lying, poorly drained 
soils; in fact, the only grass we know of for reclaiming 
waste, marshy lands. On many farms there are low, wet 
places where neither Red Top or Alsike will grow, and 
for these, Phalaris or Reed Canary Grass is the thing to 
plant. The leaves are quite broad, and the plant grows 
5 to 7 feet high. Underground stems rapidly form a 
tough sod that will hold hay machinery. Yields of 4 to 5 
tons of hay per acre from two cuttings have been re¬ 
ported. One acre will pasture 3 or 4 cows, and may be 
grazed closely except in the fall. Turn that low swamp 
patch into the most profitable acres on your farm. 
1 1b., 45c; 5 lbs., $1.90; 10 lbs., $3.60; 25 lbs., 
$8.65; 50 lbs., $16.90; 100 lbs., $33.25. 
★ CRESTED WHEAT GRASS 
The hardiest and most drought resistant grass yet dis¬ 
covered. Introduced from the Steppes region of Siberia, 
it is a slightly heavier yielder of hay than Bromus. It 
becomes green in spring even earlier than Bromus and 
stays green later in the fall. The Crested Wheat will 
spread widely and completely cover the ground. Plant 
from 10 to 15 pounds per acre. 
Where you are unable to water your lawn and can not 
use regular lawn grass. Crested Wheat Grass is a very 
good substitute, as it makes a firm, level sod and will 
stand close cutting. 
1 lb., 30c; 5 lbs., $1.35; 10 lbs., $2.50; 25 lbs., $5.90; 
50 lbs., $11.45; 100 lbs., $22.40. 
★ TIMOTHY 
Timothy is the king of all grasses in ourcountry. Asa 
hay crop, it has long been the standard, and it is adapted 
to a wider range of conditions, and is grown over a wider 
area than other grasses. 
Our seed is all Northern grown, thoroughly recleaned 
— the best Timothy seed on earth. 
THIS IS THE YEAR to increase your Timothy 
acreage, as the price is very low. Send for samples, 
compare this seed with other seed, compare prices, and 
I am sure you will send your order to Gurney's.

45 lbs., (1 bu.) $2.25; 100 lbs., $4.90. 
A $2.25 PER-BU. 
★ RED TOP 
Red Top is a very hardy perennial grass which does 
best on low, moist land. It makes excellent pasture and 
a heavy yielding, good quality hay. Our seed is very fine 
and will please you. Height 2 V 2 feet. Plant about 
10 pounds per acre. 
1 lb., 25c; 5 lbs., 90c; 10 lbs., $1.65; 25 lbs., $3.80; 
50 lbs., $7.20; 100 lbs., $13.90. 
★ RYE GRASS 
This is the grass to use if you want a lot of good 
pasture and hay the first year. It grows about 2 feet 
tall, and yields about 2 tons of leafy hay per acre. In 
some places Rye Grass is partly perennial, but in the 
Middle West it is the best treated as an annual, and 
allowed to re-seed itself. 
1 lb., 20c; 5 lbs., 60c; 10 lbs., $1.05; 25 lbs., $2.30; 
50 lbs., $4.20; 100 lbs., $7.90. 
★ ORCHARD GRASS 
This is one of the real good hay and pasture grasses. 
It will stand a lot of drouth and heat, and still make a 
good crop. Much more of this good grass should be 
planted. 
1 lb., 30c; 5 lbs., $1.25; 10 lbs., $2.35; 25 lbs., 
$5.50; 50 lbs., $10.65; 100 lbs., $20.75.

the best for pasture or hay where the rainfall or moisture 
is ample. Sow at the rate of 20 pounds per acre.
