Nicholsons Balanced Mixtnres for Pastures 
Properly proportioned mixtures of grasses and clovers adapted to growing with each other will, generally, give 
much better results than would be the case if one or two plants were sown alone. 
Good Pastures—Cheap Feed and Better Cattle 
The quantity of seed to be sown per 
acre varies according to the condition 
of the soil and the method and care 
used in planting. Measured in pounds, 
the quantities vary according to the 
size of the different seeds. 
In our opinion mixed grasses and 
clovers do best when planted in the 
fall of the year, as the moisture for 
the next few months is reasonably as¬ 
sured, but at the same time some of 
our mixtures do well planted in the 
spring. We, however, suggest that you 
write us in the spring before ordering 
any special mixture and we will gladly 
advise you to the best of our knowl¬ 
edge. 
Use a Seed Sower for even distri¬ 
bution of seed. See page 62.

NOTICE 
In shipping your order for pasture mixtures, the clover will be entirely separate from the grass 
seeds, as we think it important that the clover seed be inoculated before being planted; how¬ 
ever, will add that should you have or have had clovers of the same family growing on the same soil within the 
past two years, it will not be necessary to inoculate the clover seed.
