FIELD GRASS SEEDS .. . 
RED TOP (Herds Grass). Sow 12 to 15 pounds per acre. This is 
one of the most valuable and satisfactory grasses in al locali- 
ties. Thrives on low ground, where water stands late in the 
season. Red Top should be included in all mixtures intended 
for permanent pastures or hay. It makes excellent pasturage 
and is ideal for hay. When well established it spreads and 
will supplant other grasses. Fine for hillsides, will prevent 
erosion. Matures at the same time as Meadow Fescue, Orchard 
Grass, Tall Oats Grass and Timothy. Ask for prices. 
TALL MEADOW OAT GRASS (Evergreen Grass). This grass 
seems to make more leafage and grazing, a larger yield of hay 
and to keep green longer, both during the winter and sum- 
mer, than most grasses. It is especially adapted to heavy soils. 
It withstands heat and drought and the cold of winter; starts 
very early in the spring and continues late in the fall. For hay 
it can be cut twice in a season, frequently producing doubly 
as much hay as timothy. Ripens at the same time as Orchard 
Grass and Red or Alsike Clover. Thrives on uplands but gives 
excellent reeults on nearly all soils and better than most 
grasses on light and sandy soils. When sown alone, sow 25 
to 30 pounds to the acre either in spring or fall. Ask for 
prices. 
KENTUCKY BLUE GRASS. Sow 20 to 30 pounds per acre. 
There is no better grass for permanent pasture than Kentucky 
Blue Grass. It is nutritious, palatable and a heavy producer. 
Except in very light soils it should be included in every mix- 
ture. Very hardy, spreads freely, produces abundantly, with- 
stands drought and cannot be tramped out. Ask for prices. 
WINTER BLUE GRASS (Poa Bubosa). ‘The Grass That Grows 
When Other Grasses Sleep.’’ Poa Bulbosa reverses the normal 
order of growth and produces winter grass while other crops 
are dormant. It is a perennial and distantly related to Ken- 
tucky Blue Grass. Cattle eat Poa Bulbosa readily and greatly 
relish this grass either in the green stage or as dry pasture. 
Poa Bulbosa can be winter pastured and toward spring the 
cattle removed to permit the grass to grow to full develop- 
ment when it can be either dry pastured or cut for hay. It 
supplies winter grazing when all other grasses are dormant. 
Will not become a pest. Requires no further seeding when 
once established. Plant in the fall or early winter, seeding 
at the rate of 25 pounds per acre. Poa Bulbosa can be com- 
bined with alfalfa resulting in two crops from the same piece 
of ground; hay crops in the summer and pasture during the 
winter. Postpaid, small lot price, 40c Ib. Write for quantity 
prices. 
OREGON RYE GRASS. A rapid grower, very winter hardy, leaves 
and stems medium fine, stools heavily, has a bright green 
color. Excellent for pasture or for hay. Plant with Ladino 
Clover to prevent bloating. Sow 20 pounds per acre. Ask for 
prices. 
BROME GRASS. Will stand drought and produce heavy crops in 
dry sections and on poor soils where other grasses perish. It is 
one of the hardiest growers and succeeds on our dry hillsides. 
Sow 35 pounds per acre. Ask for prices. 
TIMOTHY, the Most Extensively Grown Hay Grass. Sow 12 to 
15 pounds per acre. For hay, timothy is the best known and 
most extensively grown of all grasses. A stand is easily estab- 
lished, it is inexpensive to sow, it starts quickly and yields its 
best crop the year after it is sown, but the following year’s 
crop may be equally as heavy if liberally top-dressed with 
manure. The yield on good land frequently runs from 1% to 
3 tons per acre. Meadow Fescue or Kentucky Blue Grass, Red

Top or Herds Grass and Ladino Clover all mature at the same 
time as Timothy, and are good grasses to sow with it for hay 
and pasture. A good mixture is 6 pounds Timothy, 5 pounds 
Red Top, 7 pounds Meadow Fescue and 4 pounds Ladino 
Cover. Sow this mixture at the rate of 20 pounds per acre. 
Ask for prices. 
ORCHARD GRASS. The greatest pasture and hay grass. A very 
vigorous grower and yields large crops of excellent and nutri- 
tious hay, as well as having special value as a pasture grass, 
furnishing good grazing from early spring till winter. It 
adapts itself to a variety of soils, provided they are well 
drained, but succeeds best on loamy uplands or moderately 
stiff soils, although it does quite well on soils that are in- 
clined to be sandy. A mixture of 15 pounds of Orchard Grass, 
12 pounds of Tall Meadow Oat Grass and 8 pounds of Red 
or Alsike Clover has proved very satisfactory, is recommended 
for hay and pasture. When sown alone, plant 30 to 35 
pounds per acre. In a mixture as above, sow 20 pounds per 
acre. Ask for prices. 
ENGLISH RYE GRASS (Perennial). A quick grower and excel- 
lent for pasture or hay. Unlike Oregon Rye Grass, English 
Rye is a perennial which persists for years. It is a heavy 
yielder and of excellent quality as hay. English Rye Grass 
should be used in every pasture or meadow mixture. Ask for 
prices. 
SUPERIOR REED CANARY GRASS. This grass is a selection 
made at Oregon Experiment Station from the common low- 
land type of Reed Canary Grass. It yields heavy forage crops 
on higher, better drained soils that get quite dry during sum- 
mer months. It is perennial, is winter hardy. Starts early in 
the spring, has excellent seed producing habits. High palata- 
bility and nutritive values and matures uniformly for hay and 
seed. Ask for prices. 
PASTURE MIXTURE. This is a combination of grasses and 
clover, ideal for permanent pasture or for hay. Combined the 
following grasses and clover in perfect proportions: Eng. Rye 
Grass, Kentucky Blue Grass, Tall Fescue, Tall Oat Grass, Tim- 
othy, Alsike, Red and White Sweet Clover, and Orchard Grass. 
We have sold this blend for years and receive many compli- 
ments on’ the mixture. Ask for prices. : 
SUDAN GRASS. A wonderful quick-growing Summer Hay Grass. 
An annual with short fibrous roots that are killed by frost. 
Because of this characteristic, Sudan Grass will never become 
a pest as will Johnson Grass. Its greatest value is for hay, 
which is well liked by stock—the entire plant, leaves, stems 
and heads, is eaten. Sow 5 to 6 pounds to the acre in 2-foot 
rows; 20 to 25 pounds broadcast. Ask for prices.
