Temporary Pasture and Hay Crops 
Sudan Grass 
SUDAN GRASS 
Sudan grass grows rapidly and thrives in the hot dry months when 
other pastures are least productive. It is, therefore, especially valu¬ 
able as a supplementary pasture to provide an abundance of feed of 
good quality during that period of the summer when it is most 
needed. 
Two to three crops during the season which yields three to six 
tons of cured palatable hay per acre. Will grow on almost every 
class of soil. Stock of all kinds eat it greedily. On dry upland plant 
at the rate of 12 pounds of seed per acre. On btter land 15 to 25 
pounds of seed per acre. Plant when the soil is fully warmed up. 
12 lbs. 90c: 25 lbs. $1.50; 50 lbs. $2.75; 100 lbs. $5.00; 500 lbs. $23.50 
RYEGRASS 
This is the grass to use if you want a lot of good pasture and hay 
the first year. It grows about 2 feet tall, and yields about 2 tons of 
leafy hay per acre. In some places Ryegrass is partly perennial, but 
in the Middle West it is the best treated as an annual, and allowed 
to re-seed itself. 
10 lbs. $1.35; 25 lbs. $3.00; 50 lbs. $5.50; 100 lbs. $10.00 
Plant RAPE for Summer and Fall Pasture 
Sow it at the rate of 4 pounds per acre with your grain. 
Very popular for hog and sheep pastures. Keeps growing out as 
it is eaten off and is not easily damaged by frost. 
Our stock of this variety is limited and because of the war we 
cannot get additional stock, which usually comes from Holland. 
Order this seed early. 
1 lb. 40c; 10 lbs. $3.00; 25 lbs. $7.00 
Cossack and Grimm alfalfa seed you buy from us are from plants 
that have survived the worst eight years of drought in the history 
of this section. This seed is worth twice as much as seed raised in 
other parts under more favorable conditions.
