POINTERS ON WESTERN AND CRESTED WHEATGRASS 
the "Forage Forever" 
While the Western Wheatgrass is best adapted to heavy clay soil 
(gumbo) the Crested Wheatgrass will grow on any type soil, clay 
or sandy loam, rich or poor. Both varieties will grow and produce 
on higher altitude and dry land as well as on lower land with more 
rainfall as well as on irrigated land. 
The grass seed of both varieties may be started any time when 
weather (cool) and moisture conditions are favorable. 
HOW TO PLANT 
On weedy land or old meadows, seed may be broadcast by hand, 
using leather faced cotton gloves and the weeds and old grass will 
hold the seed until snaw or rain carry it down to a shallow seed bed 
and such fields need not be worked with harrow or disc to cover 
the seed. On clean land, seed may be planted by broadcasting on 
top of the ground and covered by harrowing or dragging or drilled 
in a quarter to half an inch deep. No seed bed preparation is neces¬ 
sary as Wheatgrass likes a firm seed bed such as stubble ground. 
DOUBLE THE PASTURING CAPACITY 
Old pastures and hay meadows are greatly benefited by broad¬ 
casting this wonderful grass seed at the rate of five pounds per acre. 
Do this in winter months or early in spring. Snows and early rains 
will carry the seed down to shallow seedbed and help start it in the 
spring. 
WINTER PASTURE 
By adding Wheat Grass you make 12 months grazing out of five 
months pasture. While the frost in the fall of the year does away 
with other pasture grasses. Wheat Grass, because it cures up so 
wonderfully, is pastured winter time as well as summer months. 
FEEDING VALUE GREATER 
Wheat Grass goes nearly twice as far as other grasses in feeding 
value. Its great virture is that it will grow well on poor land 
and on driest upland, but naturally the better the soil and moisture 
the better it will produce. 
Grass seed and legumes germinate with cool and moist weather. 
Order at once and plant early.
