SUDAN GRASS 
Sudan is an annual and must be planted over each 
spring, after the ground has become thoroughly warm. 
Very quick growing, Sudan can be cut 3 or 4 times each- 
season, depending on moisture present. Ready to cut 
about 8 to 9 weeks after sowing, when first heads ap¬ 
pear, or a little later won't hurt. Let it stand in cocks 
until thoroughly dry; the stems are very juicy and take 
longer than leaves to cure. Can be sown with Soy beans 
or Cowpeas and the mixture makes a well balanced 
ration. If planted on rich land, will yield splendidly. 
Sudan hay alone is relished by stock, and is as nutri¬ 
tious as Timothy. 
As a summer pasture, Sudan has few equals, con¬ 
tinuing until frost. It is well to run mower over Sudan 
before turning stock in it—this will start it to stooling 
and prevent the whole young plant from being pulled 
up. Sudan is a splendid milk producer, supporting 1 to 
3 cows per acre all summer depending on conditions. 
Can be cut and fed green also. Plant 10 to 15 pounds in 
drills, 25 to 30 pounds per acre broadcast. 
BERMUDA GRASS 
Bermuda delights in sunshine and warmth. It is ex¬ 
tensively used in this section for levee work and pasture. 
The seed should be planted in April, May or June. Seed 
requires 20 to 30 days to germinate. The ground should 
be well prepared with a good firm seed bed, and seed 
broadcast at the rate of ten pounds per acre. Do not 
cover more than half an inch. The seeding should not 
be done too early, as the seed will not germinate if 
sown before the weather and ground become warm. 
HULLED BERMUDA GRASS 
Is the same Bermuda Grass seed with the outer hull 
removed. This promotes quicker germination, requiring 
8 to 10 days only, as against 20 to 30 days for unhulled 
seed. Further, only about one-half the amount of seed is 
required when using hulled seed. 
WINTER RYE GRASS 
Winter Rye Grass is one of the outstanding annual 
grasses for production of winter pasture in the South. It 
develops to the pasture stage very rapidly under favor¬ 
able conditions. It has high palatability. It is relished 
by all kinds of live stock. It has rapid comeback after 
grazing. Sow September to November at the rate of 35 
pounds to the acre. Also recommended for use in pasture 
grass mixtures.

Pasture Grass Mixtures 
These are composed principally of grasses which ripen together for cutting; but they 
also contain other grasses which will also add very much to the pasturage yield, in 
case it is desired to use the fields for pasturage. These grass mixtures afford splendid 
crops of hay of the finest quality and highest feeding value, and after being cut will 
give continuous and abundant pasturage till winter comes. May be used for hay 
exclusively, or for hay and pasturage as needed. 
PERMANENT GRASS MIXTURE NO. 1. For hay or pasture. Recommended for light, 
loamy or medium upland, for either hay crop or grazing purposes. Composed of 
Orchard Grass, Perennial Rye Grass, Meadow Fescue Grass, Red Clover, Alfalfa, 
etc. Sow 30 to 35 pounds to the acre. 
PERMANENT GRASS MIXTURE NO. 2. Intended for good moist soils, also for grazing 
as well as hay. Sow 25 pounds per acre. This is intended for the average soil. Use 
more seed where land is drier. If stock does not keep down to six or ten inches 
use the mower to do so. 
PERMANENT HOG MIXTURE. Especially prepared for pasturing hogs. Composed of 
Red Clover, Red Top Grass, Orchard Grass, Alsike Clover, Rape, etc. Sow in Feb¬ 
ruary, March and April, also fall, at rate of 20 lbs. per acre.

GRAIN SEED AND BEAN CLEANERS 
CLEANING SEED GRAIN. There is no 
more important duty associated with farm 
work and farm management than the secur¬ 
ing of perfectly pure seed—seed all of its 
own kind, that is free from foreign sub¬ 
stances, dirt, weed seed, other grain seeds 
and all imperfections. There is no occasion 
in these times of seed cleaners and seed 
graders, to sow in seeding for any crop any¬ 
thing but the best quality of seed. 
The difficulties encountered in getting seeds 
properly planted, in the right condition of 
soil, depth, etc., are certainly a sufficient 
handicap without introducing the added em¬ 
barrassments of impurity and dirty seed 
when this feature is so easily remedied and 
entirely in the hands of the one having the 
direction and management of the farm. 
Every farm should be supplied with an 
up-to-date cleaner and grader. There is no 
greater money saver on the farm. 
It is almost impossible to get seed that will 
not be greatly improved by running it 
through a cleaner in your own barn. It is 
practically a crime to distribute noxious 
weed seeds on your land to later become a 
menace and nuisance to your neighborhood. 
Buy a machine and use it in all your 
planting and sowing. It will be one of the 
best investments made for the farm.
