ORCHARD GRASS.lb. $0.45 
.Also known as cocksfoot. Withstands drought excellently and useful for areas to be 
cut occasionally in a landscape plan surrounding lawns. 
KENT WILD WHITE CLOVER lb. $2.25 
This is a truly perennial variety of white clover which remains permanently in the 
pasture sward when the pasture is properly fertilized and grazed. Plants produced from 
seed of commercial white Dutch clover seldom survive for more than two years, 
YELLOW TREFOIL $16.35 
This is a relative of alfalfa and must not be confused with birdsfoot trefoil, a different 
species. It occurs frequently in New York pastures. While less valuable than wild 
white clover and birdsfoot trefoil the seed is normally inexpensive and its use in seed 
mixtures for permanent pasture is worth while.
