FIELD CRASS SEEDS . Write for Quantity Prices 
Crested Wheat Grass. Here’s a grass that no amount of 
drought can kill out. If you have real dry land in which you 
have been unsuccessful in getting a profitable stand of grass 
or hay, plant Crested Wheat Grass. A little preparation of the 
soil and the sowing of 15 pounds per acre of this dryland grass 
will solve the problem presented to you each year by that dry 
land. Crested Wheat Grass makes a palatable hay, produces 
well and will not kill out. In spite of the severe droughts in 
the middle west. Crested Wheat Grass has held its own, pro¬ 
ducing feed where all other grasses failed. The crop of seed 
is extremely short this year and our supply quite limited, so 
order early. This grass is the first to start in the spring and 
the first to spring to life when fall rains come. It stands the 
severest cold weather and best of all, the hottest and driest 
summer weather. LI). 60c; 10 lbs. !il5.00, posipaid. 
Red Top (Herds Grass). Sow 12 to 15 pounds per acre. This is 
one of the most valuable and satisfactory grasses in all locali¬ 
ties. Thrives on iow ground, where water stands late in the 
season. Red Top should be included in all mixtures intended 
for permanent pastures or hay. It makes excellent pasturage 
and is ideal for hay. When well established it spreads and 
will supplant other grasses. Fine for hillsides, will prevent 
erosion. Matures at the same time as Meadow Fescue, Orchard 
Grass, Tall Oats Grass and Timothy. Lb. 35c; 10 lbs. $3.25, 
postpaid. 
Tall Meadow Oat Grass (Evergreen Grass). This grass seems 
to make more leafage and grazing, a larger yield of hay and 
to keep green longer, both during the winter and summer, than 
most grasses. It is especially adapted to heavy soils. It with¬ 
stands heat and drought and the cold of winter; starts very 
early in the spring and continues late in the fall. For hay it 
can be cut twice in a season, frequently producing doubly as 
much hay as timothy. Ripens at the same time as Orchard 
Grass and Red or Alsike Clover. Thrives on uplands but gives 
excellent results on nearly all soils and better than most 
grasses on light and sandy soils. When sown alone, sow 25 
to 30 pounds to the acre either in spring or fall. Lb. 50c; 10 lbs. 
$4.50, postpaid. 
Kentucky Blue Grass. Sow 20 to 30 pounds per acre. There is 
no better grass for permanent pasture than Kentucky Blue 
Grass. It is nutritious, palatable and a heavy producer. Ex¬ 
cept in very light soils it should be included in every mixture. 
Very hardy, spreads freely, produces abundantly, withstands 
drought and cannot be tramped out. Lb. 30c; 10 lbs. $2.50, post¬ 
paid. 
Winter Blue Grass (Poa Bulbosa). “The Grass That Grows 
When Other Grasses Sleep.’’ Poa Bulbosa reverses the nor¬ 
mal order of growth and produces winter grass while other 
crops are dormant. It is a perennial and distantly related to 
Kentucky Blue Grass. Cattle eat Poa Bulbosa readily and 
greatly relish this grass either in the green stage or as dry 
pasture. Poa Bulbosa can be winter pastured and toward 
spring the cattle removed to permit the grass to grow to full 
development when it can be either dry pastured or cut for 
hay. It supplies winter grazing when all other grasses are 
dormant. Will not become a pest. Requires no further seed¬ 
ing when once established. Plant in the fall or early winter, 
seeding at the rate of 25 pounds per acre. Poa Bulbosa can be 
combined with alfalfa resulting in two crops from the same 
piece of ground; hay crops in the summer and pasture during 
the winter. Postpaid, small lot price, 50c lb. Write for quan¬ 
tity prices. 
Oregon Rye Grass. A rapid grower, very winter hardy, leaves 
and stems medium fine, stools heavily, has a bright green 
color. Excellent for pasture or for hay. Plant with Ladino 
Clover to prevent bloating. Sow 20 pounds per acre. Lb. 20c; 
10 lbs. $1.50, postpaid. 
Brome Grass. Will stand drought and produce heavy crops in 
dry sections and on poor soils where other grasses perish. It is 
one of the hardiest growers and succeeds on our dry hillsides. 
Sow 35 pounds per acre. Lb. 35c; 10 lbs. $3.25, postpaid. 
Timothy, the Most Extensively Grown Hay Grass. Sow 12 to 
15 pounds per acre. For hay, timothy is the best known and 
most extensively grown of all grasses. A stand is easily estab¬ 
lished, it is inexpensive to sow, it starts quickly and yields its 
best crop the year after it is sown, but the following year’s 
crop may be equally as heavy if liberally top-dressed with 
manure. The yield on good land frequently runs from 1^4 to 
3 tons per acre. Meadow Fescue or Kentucky Blue Grass, Red 
Top or Herds Grass and Ladino Clover all mature at the same 
time as Timothy, and are good grasses to sow with it for hay 
and pasture. A good mixture is 6 pounds Timothy. 5 pounds 
Red Top, 7 pounds Meadow Fescue and 4 pounds Ladino 
Clover. Sow this mixture at the rate of 20 pounds per acre. 
I’er lb. 25c; 10 lbs. $2.25, postpaid. Write for quantity prices. 
Orchard Grass. The greatest pasture and hay grass. A very 
vigorous grower and yields large crops of excellent and nutri¬ 
tious hay, as well as having special value as a pasture grass, 
furnishing good grazing from early spring till winter. It 
adapts itself to a variety of soils, provided they are well 
drained, but succeeds best on loamy uplands or moderately 
stiff soils, although it does quite well on soils that are in¬ 
clined to be sandy. A mixture of 15 pounds of Orchard Grass, 
12 pounds of Tall Meadow Oat Grass and 8 pounds of Red or 
Alsike Clover has proved very satisfactory, is recommended 
for hay and pasture. When sown alone, plant 30 to 35 pounds 
per acre. In a mixture as above, sow 20 pounds per acre. 
Lb. 35c; 10 lbs. $3.00, postpaid. Write for quantity prices. 
Sudan Grass. A wonderful quick-growing Summer Hay Grass. 
An annual with short fibrous roots that are killed by frost. 
Because of this characteristic, Sudan Grass will never become 
a pest as will Johnson Grass. Its greatest value is for hay, 
which is well liked by stock—the entire plant, leaves, stems 
and heads, is eaten. Sow 5 to 6 pounds to the acre in 2-foot 
rows; 20 to 25 pounds broadcast. By mail postpaid, lb. 20c; 
5 lbs. 85c. Write for quantity prices. 
English Rye Grass (Perennial). A quick grower and excellent 
for pasture or hay. Unlike Oregon Rye Grass, English Rye is 
a perennial which persists for years. It is a heavy yielder and 
of excellent quality as hay. English Rye Grass should be used 
in every pasture or meadow mixture. Postpaid, small lot price, 
lb. 35c; 10 lbs. $3.00. Write for quantity price.
