portion of orchard grass, fescue, tall meadow oat grass, red _top, 
paspalum, carpet grass, ‘sericea, Korean and Kobe _ lespeceza, 
alyce, alsike and Virginia Northern Neck red clovers, all of which 
make a vigorous growth on light soils, where moisture and fer- 
tility is usually lacking.

Composed of 17 grasses and clovers, including a large quantity 
of Kentucky blue grass, carpet grass, meadow fescue, paspalum,

clovers. 
N 4 PASTURE MIXTURE FOR MOIST BOTTOM 
0. LAND . 
Composed of 16 grasses and clovers, including a predominant 
amount of meadow fescue, red top, carpet grass, paspalum, tim- 
othy, alsike clover, lespedeza and ladino white clover, which grow 
well under moist conditions. 
Cut Hay Early Says Department of Agriculture. ‘Delaying har- 
vest is the most common fault in making hay. Cutting it just 
before full bloom increases the quality, palatability, protein and 
feeding value and permits the second crop to get an earlier start 
and greater yield.” Wood’s Permanent Grass and Clover Mix- 
tures make several cuttings a season and last indefinitely. 
LADINO WHITE CLOVER 
Sow it for a year round pasture. U. S. Department of Agri- 
culture says: “Ladino is the largest growing form of white 
clover, ’It is similar to White Dutch but grows about twice as 
large Introduced from South Europe, where climate is similar 
to ours in the Southeast, it is widely grown throughout the 
United States, is very popular in the West and is becoming im- 
portant in the Hast where fields are properly managed. Do not 
graze it below two inches. It is grazed either alone, or with 
grass to avoid the risk of bloating. Many farmers cut it for hay 
in the summer and graze it the rest of the year. The hay is 
most nutritious and palatable.” 
It is a long lived perennial. Its tap root goes down one to 
three feet. The stems run on the ground, taking root. One 
plant covers two feet. A sparse stand soon thickens into a dense 
even growth. The only parts available to grazing are the highly 
nutritious leaves and flowers which rise 12 to 20 inches in great 
profusion from the numerous joints. It outgrows Bermuda, 
Johnson grass and many weeds. It is not subject to alfalfa 
diseases and*is ideal to plant after alfalfa. It does not bloat 
livestock as’ readily as other clovers but is safer to plant with 
paspalum, timothy, red top, meadow fescue, Kentucky blue, 
orchard, carpet and rye grass. It is included in all Wood’s 
Permanent Pasture Mixtures. 
It grows on any soils, even shallow hardpans, but does best on 
loam or clay where moisture is plentiful. The seed is so small 
it requires a firm hard seedbed, planted shallow and covered very 
lightly. Unscarified. Ladino germinates only about 45%. Our 
seed is scarified; germinates- over 90%, requiring one-half as 
much per acre. Inoculate and sow in spring or fall, 5 lbs, per 
acre alone, or 3 lbs. in mixtures. Don’t pasture until piants 
spread and start sending up shoots from the joints. 
No HAY MIXTURE FOR LIGHT GRAVELLY 
< OR SANDY SOIL 
Composed of 11 grasses and clovers with a predominant pro- 
portion of tall meadow oat grass, orchard grass, red top, red 
clover, sericea, Kobe and Korean lespedezas, all of which make 
a good growth of hay on light soils which frequently lack moist- 
ure and fertility. 
No HAY MIXTURE FOR LOAM AND CLAY 
C SOILS 
Composed of 11 grasses and clovers with Northern Neck red 
clover, Kansas alfalfa, timothy, orchard grass, alyce clover, red 
top, meadow fescue and Kobe lespedeza, which grow well on loam 
and clay soils, as chief ingredients. 
No 9 HAY MIXTURE FOR MOIST BOTTOM 
. LAND 
Many grasses and clovers drown out on moist land, but this 
mixture of 10 grasses and clovers contains an abundance of 
ladino white clover, meadow fescue, alsike clover, red top, timo- 
thy, Kobe and Korean lespedezas which thrive with wet feet. 
No 10 ECONOMY HAY AND PASTURE MIXTURE for ALL 
° SOILS THROUGHOUT TEE SOUTH and EAST 
_A splendid inexpensive blend of the highest quality seed of 14 
different grasses and clovers, some of which grow during every 
season of the year. 
Many plant it to preserve or enrich the soil as it contains 45% 
clovers, which add nitrogen. An ideal mixture for complying 
with the Soil Conservation Program. Mixtures of only a few in- 
gredients go through a dormant period, allowing soil fertility 
to leach out. This mixture contains alfalfa, alsike, black medic, 
alyce and ladino white clovers, red and bur clovers, sericea, 
Kobe, Korean lespedezas, meadow fescue, red top, Kentucky blue, 
orchard, timothy, carpet, paspalum and rye grasses. 
Wood’s Southern Permanent Pasture and 
Hay Mixture No. 12 
An excellent mixture for hay or pasture in the Southern Coastal 
and Gulf States. Contains grasses and clovers that make good 
grazing or hay under adverse southern conditions. Suitable to 
both light and heavy soils. Contains 17 grasses and clovers in- 
eluding alyce clover, carpet grass, paspalum, bur, black medic 
and dixie white clovers, sericea, Kobe, and Korean lespedezas. 
Makes bumper hay crops during warm months and abundant 
pasture the year round. Should not be grazed too closely in the 
late summer when lespedezas are reseeding. 
LESPEDEZA 
LEADING SOUTHERN LEGUME 
For hay, pasture and soil improving. Economical to plant. 
Easy to get a stand. Thrives on all soils, even poor, acid. 
Drought and heat-resistant. 
Broadcast 25 lbs. per acre from February until May. 
KORE AN 99% Pure. Bus. 45 lbs. Most popular and 
widely adapted of all lespedezas, very heavy 
seeder, matures early and persists even in mountains and the 
North. Large, vigorous growth, deep penetrating roots covered 
with nodules, an outstanding pasture, hay and soil building 
legume. It furnishes grazing nearly a month before common 
lespedeza, has larger leaves and taller growth, 15 to 24 
inches on light soil, taller on fertile loams. Its deep roots 
make it highly resistant to drought; thrives on poor, worn-out 
soils where alfalfa and clovers fail.
