Write for prices on all grass seed. 
TIMOTHY—This makes an excellent hay. 
Is very nutritious and is easily marketed, 
as there is always a good demand for 
first class timothy hay, but it is not rec- 
ommended for pasture, as it is injured 
by close cutting or grazing. It thrives 
best on heavy, moist soils, but does not 
do well on thin, light-dry land. Sow 15 
lbs. to the acre. 
HERD’S GRASS or RED TOP—This excel- 
lent pasture and hay grass does well on 
any soil, but thrives best on moist, heavy 
soils. It spreads and thickens from year 
to year, and will gradually supplant 
other grasses. Matures at the same time 
as timothy, with which it makes a good 
mixture. Sow 10 to 12 lbs. to the acre. 
ORCHARD GRASS—This is one of the most 
reliable grasses for hay or pasture grown 
in this section, making a quick, vigorous 
and continuous growth from early spring 
to winter. Sow 25 lbs. to the acre in the 
spring or fall and in any soil; loamy 
upland is best. It is excellent to mix 
with other grasses. 

ORCHARD GRASS 

TALL MEADOW OAT GRASS—A most val- 
uable grass for the South, as it stands 
heat and drought well and flourishes on 
dry, light soils. Splendid for pastures 
and for hay; it may be cut twice in a 
season. Sow 25 lbs. to the acre. 
KENTUCKY BLUE GRASS—This grass suc- 
ceeds best on limestone soils, but does 
well on any good, stiff soil. Stands cold, 
but does not do well in extreme heat. 
Grows slowly at first, making a thick, 
compact turf. Used for lawns or pastures. 
Sow either in the fall or spring. 30 to 
35 lbs. to the acre.

KENTUCKY BLUE GRASS 
DOMESTIC RYE GRASS—Good for hay 
and pastures, if sown on strong, moist 
soil, but does not stand drought well. It 
grows rapidly and matures very early. 
Sow 30 lbs. to the acre. 
COLONIAL BENT—A very valuable grass 
for pasture and lawns and is particularly 
recommended for golf links, as it stands 
trampling perhaps as well or better than . 
any other grass. 
RED FESCUE—Used for lawns and golf 
course mixtures. 
BERMUDA GRASS—A valuable grass for 
permanent sod, and especially recom- 
mended for dams and terraces, as it has 
long, tough roots and of a matty growth; 
prevents land washing; would ‘not ad- 
vise sowing on land which is to be 
planted in other crops, as it is very 
tenacious in habit and very hard to 
eradicate after it once gets a hold; for 
this reason is used extensively on golf 
links. It is very similar to our Virginia 
Wire Grass. Sow in March or April, 
August and September, about 10 pounds 
to the acre, in well prepared soil. Seeds 
are slow to germinate. 
SUDAN GRASS—This is an annual grass 
and if seeded in May can be cut twice 
and with favorable seasons three times 
a year, but it can be seeded as late as 
July and will make one cutting. Grows 
6 to 10 feet high, when drilled. 
DOMESTIC RYE GRASS 
For beautiful green winter lawns sow 
Domestic Rye Grass in late fall or early 
winter. 
This type of grass grows well in most 
any soil throughout the winter, but is killed 
back by extreme summer heat. An early 
sowing of D. & B.’s Velvet Green Lawn 
Grass in February or March over this grass 
will establish a permanent lawn.
