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. If 
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.
