CORNELL PASTURE MIXTURES 
The following mixtures are the formulae suggested for 1941 by Cornell University, and are mixed by 
us from lots of seed which have been tested and approved by that university. While designed for New York 
conditions, there is no reason why they should not be excellent in any section where conditions are similar. Ii 
you are about to establish a permanent pasture, these two mixtures are fine. 
It is suggested that your soil be 
analyzed by your state experiment station, and that it be limed or fertilized according to its recommendations 
for best results. 
CORNELL PASTURE MIXTURE 
The 
seed bed 
should be prepared by plowing and harrowing, 
and the seed evenly distributed at the rate of 
25 lb. (28% qt.) per acre. Cover the seed not 
over a quarter inch deep. For best results sow 
as early as possible in April. Seeding may be 
done in May, but summer and fall seedings are 
not recommended. Mow the weeds, if necessary, 
and a light grazing may be allowed in August 
and September. The mixture contains Kentucky 
Blue Grass, Canada Blue Grass, Timothy, Peren- 
nial Rye Grass, Yellow Trefoil and Wild White 
CORNELL HAY—PASTURE MIXTURE 
Seed in 

the early spring. Hay may be cut and the after- 
math grazed. If hay is not needed, it may be 
grazed or if it is not needed as pasture it may 
be used for hay for a year or two and then ex- 
clusively for pasture. The mixture contains 
Timothy, Kentucky Blue Grass, Alfalfa, Medium 
Red Clover, Alsike Clover, Yellow Trefoil and 
Ladino Clover. It should be seeded at the rate 
Clover. 
Quantities of seed required per acre, while vary- 
ing somewhat in different sections, largely depend 
on vitality. Soil, climatic conditions and time of 
seeding have some bearing. The table below gives 
the usual range.
