GRASSES FOR PASTURE and HAY 
DOMESTIC RYE GRASS. Ber Cover Crops. Sow broadcast 
mn corn, tomatoes or cabbage at 
time of last cultivation at the rate of about 20 lbs. per acre. It does not 
compete with crops before harvest but makes a strong growth in the 
fall. Forms a dense mass of fibrous roots which go down to plow depth. 
A most economical method of keeping up the humus content of the 
soil, and providing a winter cover. 
It is also excellent to supply organic matter in home gardens. Sow 
between rows at last cultivation or in midsummer among vine crops. 
Use 1 Lb. to 1000 sq. feet.

grass for pasture as 
it forms a heavy close sod and grows up quickly after being eaten or 
cut off. Good for hay if cut when in bloom and affords good pasture

Valuable to make a quick covering in new lawns but will not make 
a permanent sod.

“Last year we got all our seeds from you and we have never had a better 
garden, and we know it was because of the seeds as we tried other kinds side 
by side, and they looked sick and didn’t amount to much. We never knew 
there was such a difference in seeds.” 
C. H. Christiansen, Wheaton, Ill. Jan. 5, 1943.

Cornell Pasture Mixtures for 1944 
Improved Formulas for Permanent Pastures Recommended by the New York State College of Agriculture 
These mixtures have been developed as a result of much time and 
research by experts at Cornell University to improve the permanent 
pastures and hay fields of New York State and vicinity. 
The mixtures we offer conform exactly to the strict requirements of the 
Cornell specifications for the amounts of the various grasses, Wild White 
Clover, etc. and in most cases the seed we use greatly exceeds the mini- 
CORNELL SPECIAL PASTURE MIXTURE. Recommended for 
permanent pastures in New York State and vicinity on land with a 
fairly high level of fertility. The land should have been adequately 
fertilized, and good grazing management should be employed. This 
Mixture contains Wild White Clover, one of the most important plants 
in the famous permanent pastures of England, and when fertilized 
and grazed properly will produce more high protein feed to the acre 
than any farm crops ordinarily grown for feed. Sow 25 lbs. per acre. 
100 Lbs. $33.50. Purchaser pays transportation.

quality of the various ingredients. Sample or analysis gladly sent on request. 
Leaflets issued by Cornell University giving specifications of the mix- 
tures and directions for fertilization, seeding and management of perma- 
nent pastures will be sent with your order if requested.

much the same conditions as the Special Mixture but is adapted for
