SUDAN GRASS—tThe heaviest-yielding, most 
drouth-resisting hay grass ever introduced. 
Sudan Grass combines all the good features of 
Johnson Grass and has none of the objections. 
Sudan Grass is sown in the spring, as soon as 
danger of frost is past, either broadcast or in 
rows so that it can be cultivated. If in rows, 
38% feet apart, 5 to 6 pounds to the acre will 
be required; if sown broadcast, 15 to 20 
pounds. It stools freely and often from 80 to 
100 plants may be found coming from one seed. 
As a drouth-resister, it has no equal, and may 
be depended upon when all other grasses suc- 
cumb to dry weather. It may be mowed or cut 
with binder; the latter method is preferred, as 
Sudan Grass cures admirably well in shocks.

quantities. 
Write for lowest market prices when ready 
to buy. 
KENTUCKY BLUE GRASS—An excellent 
pasture and lawn grass, succeeding best on 
limestone land, but does well on stiff or clay 
soils. It is rather sensitive to heat, but not to 
cold weather, and on this account does best in 
the spring, fall or winter. Sow in the fall or 
spring at the rate of 2 or 3 bushels to an acre. 
Lb., 50c, postpaid. 
For lawns, sow 1 lb. to 150 square feet, 
Kentucky Blue Grass is adapted to shady spots, 
but as our soils lack lime it is advisable to use 
pulverized limestone at least once a year at the 
rate of 3 to 4 pounds per 100 square feet. 
MEADOW FESCUE—Commonly called Eng- 
lish bluegrass, produces a fairly good 
sod and withstands pasturing very well. It is 
grown chiefly in the region north of the cot- 
ton belt. It is best adapted to fertile and moist 
soils, rather than poor uplands, and does fairly 
well in the shade. Meadow fescue is used most- 
ly in mixtures, and is valuable for supplying 
pasturage while slower growing species are 
being established. It has a limited adaptation 
in northeastern Oklahoma, and provides graz- 
ing during cooler season. When grown alone 
it is seeded at the rate of 15 pounds per acre. 
Per lb., 60c, postpaid. 
RED TOP—Grows well in all soils, whether 
sandy, thin, dry lands or rich, wet soils. It is 
one of the most satisfactory grasses that can 
be sown; a fine pasture grass and is well 
suited for meadows. It sends out shoots at the 
base that take root at every joint, forming a 
dense thick sod. Sow 10 pounds to the acre. 
Lb,. 30c, postpaid.

BUFFALO GRASS—A wonderful pasture 
and has produced 100 pounds of meat to the 
acre on tests made in Noble County. It is 
highly palatable and its value as a winter pas- 
ture makes it particularly adapted to the grass 
lands of Oklahoma. It is called one of the 
hard grasses because when it cures in the fall, 
it makes a hay of high quality, differing in 
this respect from the tall grasses such as little 
blue stem. Buffalo Grass, being a low growing 
grass, is also suitable for lawns, Price per 
pound, $3.00. 
BLUE GRAMMA GRASS—Blue Gramma 
perhaps occupies second place as a _ pasture 
grass in the western part of the state. It is a 
factor in many pastures in eastern Oklahoma. 
Price per pound, 35c, postpaid. Write for 
quantity prices. 
SEASIDE BENT GRASS—(Certified)—It is 
a creeping variety forming close mat-like 
sward and is very desirable for putting greens. 
Does well in moist situation, making a rapid 
eS of fine texture. Price, lb., $1.10, post- 
paid. 
ORCHARD GRASS—This is one of the most 
valuable and widely known of all pasturage 
grasses, coming in early in the spring and re- 
maining green later in the fall than any other. 
It grows about 2% feet high, producing an 
immense quantity of leaves and forage. Sow 
1% bushels to an acre, either spring or fall. 
Lb., 60c¢ postpaid.

SPECIAL DIRECTIONS ABOUT SOWING 
—Nearly all grass seeds are very small and 
will not come up satisfactorily unless put in 
properly, and again, most planters will not 
use enough seed to the acre. The soil should 
be thoroughly prepared by deep breaking and 
thorough harrowing until a smooth bed is 
made, and the ground should be settled before 
sowing. After sowing the seed, very little cov- 
ering should be given with a brush or harrow 
that will cover it lightly. If the weather is 
likely to be dry, the ground should be pressed 
over the seed, so as to bring the seed in close 
contact with the soil to hold the moisture until 
the seeds get a good start.
