HAY AND PASTURE GRASSES 
ALFILARIA (Erodium Circutarium)—It grows wild with¬ 
out any attention in all classes and conditions of soil except 
swamps and excessive alkali. Soon after the first heavy 
Fall rains have saturated the ground it makes its appear¬ 
ance. It is good paasturage at all stages of its growth, 
even when mature and dried up. In nutritive qualities it 
compares favorably with alfalfa and live stock of all kinds 
fatten on it readily. It is hardy even where the winter- 
temperatures reach zero or below. Little or no preparation 
of the soil is required. Sow six pounds per acre.

CRESTED WHEAT GRASS (Agropyron Cristatum)— 
This very hardy perennial bunch grass is relished by all 
kinds of live stock both as pasture or hay. Will stand ex¬ 
treme cold or drouth but does not thrive in climates where 
there is prolonged cloudy weather and little sunshine. Sow 
seed from early Spring to early Fall. Drill 10 to 12 lbs. 
per acre and cover seed x k inch. Lb. 60c, Postpaid. 
JOHNSON GRASS (Soorghum Halapense)—A perennial, 
a rapid grower with long cane-like roots; the leaf stalk 
and pinnacle of this grass resemble those of sorghums. 
It is grown on all land where corn will grow. Ten pounds 
will sow an acre. Lb. 25c, Postpaid. 
MESQUITE OR VELVET GRASS (Holcus Lanatus)— 
This wonderful thin bladed grass has often been the main¬ 
stay with the Texas rancher. It grows in mesquite as well 
as in the open and therefore is good for pasture. Sow 35 
pounds per acre. Lb. 45c, Postpaid. 
PASPALUM DILATUM (Dallis Grass)—Just the thing to 
reclaim marsh lands, and equally good to survive a drouth. 
It survives extreme cold, and in the South it grows the 
year ’round. Cut it three times during the season, each 
time getting about one ton of dry hay to the acre. Stock 
relish it fully as well as Alfalfa. It makes a fine hay. 
Seven pounds are required to plant an acre. Lb. 45c, Post¬ 
paid. 
RESCUE GRASS (Bromus Schraderi)—This grass is sown 
in the Fall and Winter of the year, making a splendid 
Winter and Spring pasturage. It is a very nurtitious 
grass growing about one to three feet tall, and does best 
on a fairy moist soil. If allowed to reseed itself, it will 
come up again the following Fall. Plant about 20 pounds j 
to the acre. As there is sometimes a shortage of this seed, 
order in the late Spring or Summer. Lb. 50c, Postpaid. 
RHODES GRASS—For the Gulf Coast sections all around 
the Lower Rio Grande Valley, above Brownsville, lexas, 
we believe that Rhodes Grass will prove the most valua¬ 
ble grass ever introduced. Stock eat Rhodes Grass greed¬ 
ily, either as a hay or in its green state. It stands a fair 
amount of frost, will do with less moisture than perhaps 
any other grass that has been introduced into thus.coun¬ 
try, and last but not least of its excellent qualities, is 
that it will smother Nut Grass. This is an imported Aus¬ 
tralian Grass. Plant 7 to 10 ounces to the acre. Lb. 70c, 
Postpaid. 
SUDAN GRASS (Sorghum Vulgare Sudanensis)—The 
great h?y and forage crop. It seems to grow successfully 
on all kinds of land, stands dry weather and does not blight 
under ample rainfall Sudan Grass is thought to be the 
original wild form of the cultivated sorghums. It is an 
annual, the seed having to be sown every year. Stock of 
all kinds eat it readily and will leave other kinds of hay to 
eat it. Makes a splendid silage crop. It is usually planted 
in rows and requires four pounds of seed per acre. 
TEOSINTE (Euchlaene Mexicana)—The most prolific 
forage plant yet introduced. The stalks are very nutritious. 
It can be cut several times during the season. One seed 
will sometimes produce 20 to 60 stalks or shoots, and the 
warmer the climate the better it yields. Should not be 
planted until the soil is perfectly warm in the Spring. 
Plant four pounds of seed to acre. Lb. $1.25, Postpaid. 
HAIRY PERUVIAN ALFALFA—Is growing of special 
value in the Southwestern portion of the United States, 
where the winters are mild. It is characterized by its 
large leaflets and by the hairiness of its stems and leaves, 
quick recovery after cutting and its very rapid growth 
during the growing season. Lb., 50c, Postpaid.

allowed to make seed. Sow 35 lbs. per acre. Lb. 30c, Post¬ 
paid.
