Special Hay Mixture 

For ordinary spring seeding this Mixture cannot be 
beaten. The proportion is approximately 6 pounds 
Red Clover, 3 pounds Timothy, 3 pounds Alsike. Sow 
12 to 15 pounds per acre on well-prepared seed-bed. 
Having it so mixed saves extra bags, extra weighing g, and 
extra profits, sampling, etc., and positively is cheaper 
to you than if vou bought each seaparately. None 
but the best seeds are used in this Mixture. It is suited 
to nearly all soils, and will grow tn every section. This 
Mixture should be used very extensively for either hay, 
pasture or soiling purposes. When seeding timothy in 
the spring, always use red and alsike for best results. 
This Mixture, we believe, will meet with your approval 
and be a money-saver. It reduces the cost of your 
seeding and is an excellent grass combination for hay. 
We mix this seed, and positively none but best grades 
are used. See Price-List. 
Lawn Grass 
Our Fancy Lawn Mixture is composed of the very 
best grades of seed which make a quick growth and 
cover the ground in a few weeks after sowing the seed, 
forming a rich green turf. Can be sown either in spring 
or fall. For best results spring sowing is most favorable. 
One pound of seed will sow 200 square feet of ground. 
Seed should be raked in slightly, and, after seeding, 
soil should be pressed down firmly. Cover seed ! 14 to 
14 inch. See Price-List. 
Domestic Rye Grass 

One of the best grasses for a cover-crop. Among the 
most important characteristics of Rye Grass is its deep 
rooting system. Roots well distributed through the 
soil are a much more desirable form of organic matter 
than top, which, 1f large when plowed down, may be 
actually detrimental. A good Rye Grass cover-crop 
turns Over In a mass like a real sod when plowed. Can 
be sown before or immediately after last cultivation. 
For a cover-crop, sow 20 pounds per acre. 
It is also valuable for pasture mixtures because of its 
quick-growing habit, for Rye Grass is up and provides 
quantities of feed before other varieties of grass have 
much more than started. It will provide feed while 
other slow-growing seed establishes itself for later use. 
Probably one of the most palatable grasses for livestock 
—sheep, cattle, hogs, horses and poultry all like it. 
The quick-growing, sturdy plants will stand a lot of 
pasturing and, even when grazed to the ground, make 
quick renewed growth as soon as given an opportunity. 
Cultivation of seed-bed prior to sowing the seed need 
not be intensive—not so important as for fine seed. 
Many times, seed scattered on top of ground will give 
good results, but we recommend some preparation of 
the seed-bed. 
When sown alone for pasture, use 30 pounds per acre. 
In mixtures with other grasses, reduce the Rye Grass 
accordingly. See Price-List. 
Orchard Grass 
This makes a desirable grass on account of its quick 
growth and valuable aftermath. It starts growing 
earlier In the spring and stands dry weather better 
ales any other grass. We would recommend it mostly 
for pasture, and more especially when sown alone. If 
you have never grown Orchard Grass, try a little this 
year. It will last for years without the necessity of 
resowing. May be sown either spring or fall on any 
ne of soil. Sow 20 to 30 pounds per acre. See Price- 
AS. 



Permanent Pasture Mixture 
Good pasture is the foundation of the riches of a farm. 
One of the most valuable crops for successful stock and 
dairy farming is abundant pasture. Our Mixture yields 
a very heavy crop of the finest and most succulent 
grasses early in the season until late in the fall, and is 
intended especially for seeding pasture- -grounds. 
Several varieties are used in this Mixture, a combina- 
tion of grasses of different habits and seasons of growth. 
They can be depended on to produce a turf that will 
stand the trampling of stock, and as the different 
grasses have different habits of erowth, they grow closer 
together, their roots interlacing, covering the soil and 
forming a protection from the extreme heat, cold and 
dry sis Fee This enables the grasses to retain a rich 
green appearance from early spring to late fall. These 
mixtures are recommended for either spring- or fall- 
sowing. If sown in the spring sow with a nurse crop; 
about 1 bushel of oats or barley per acre is very desirable. 
Two mixtures are made: One for well-drained up- 
land, called Highland Mixture, and the other for low- 
land meadows, which is called Lowland Mixture. Sow 
25 pounds per acre. See Price-List. 
Kentucky Blue Grass 
Kentucky Blue Grass may be sown spring or fall. 
One of the best grasses for pasture mixtures, It has 
many advantages for general purposes and is extremely 
hardy and stands severest droughts. Comes on early 
in spring and grows late in fall. We recommend it as 
the grass every stock-raiser wants. Fine for pasture 
as it forms a tough, closely knit sod that Is not injured, 
but benefited, by trampling of grazing animals. It 
requires a good soil containing some lime to yield 
profitable crops. When sown alone, sow 20 to 30 pounds 
per acre. See Price-List. 
Red-Top 
This is a valuable grass for either hay or pasture. It 
ranks second to timothy in production of hay and 
makes excellent pasture and good crops of fine hay. Can 
be sown in spring or fall. It succeeds better and Is 
adapted to a wider range of soils than any other grasses. 
It is hardy and will make a heavy sod, and it should 
be a large constituent part of all mixtures intended for 
permanent pasture. If sown alone, use 10 to 12 pounds 
of hulled or solid seed. See Price-List.
