FIELD GRASS SEEDS (Continued) 
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. Lb. 55c; 10 Ibs. $5.00, postpaid. Write for quantity 
prices. 
MONARCH MEADOW MIXTURE. This is a combination of 
grasses and clover, ideal for permanent pasture or for hay. 
Combined the following grasses and clover in perfect propor- 
tions: Eng. Rye Grass, Kentucky Blue Grass, Tall Fescue, Tall 
Oat Grass, Timothy, Alsike, Red and White Sweet Clover, and 
Orchard Grass. We have sold this blend for years and receive 
many compliments on the mixture. Plant Monarch Meadow 
Mixture for a real fine pasture. Lb. 55c; 10 Ibs. $5.00, 
postpaid. Write for quantity price. 
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. Post- 
paid, small lots price, Ib. 45c; 10 Ibs. $4.00. Write for 
quantity price. 
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. Postpaid, small lot price, $1.25 per pound. Write for 
quantity price. 
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. By mail postpaid, Ib. 35c; 
5 Ibs. $1.50. Write for quantity prices.

LADINO CLOVER 
A Favorite Among the Clovers 
LADINO CLOVER will pasture more cattle and hogs than any 
other clover with the possible exception of Strawberry Clover 
which is fast coming into importance as a clover pasture crop. 
Ladino is perennial, heavy producing and very palatable. It 
grows 12 to 18 inches tall. Ladino increases milk flow, im- 
proves soil, will thrive on shallow moist soils and is the first 
clover to awaken in the spring and the last plant to quit in 
the fall. Prepare a fine seed bed and sow the seed at the rate 
of 6 pounds per acre. Cover lightly with a brush harrow. If 
you use a sloping tooth harrow, set the teeth dack to the limit 
to void covering too deeply. To prevent bloating include 
grasses such as Rye Grass, Orchard Grass or Fescue. Prices: 
Blue Tag, $2.25 per |b.; Red Tag, $2.15 per Ib.; Pasture 
grade (contains Alsike Clover), $1.65 per Ib. Prices postpaid.

WHITE BLOSSOM SWEET CLOVER. Sweet clover is one of the 
most important soil improving crops. Withstands adverse con- 
ditions of soil and weather better than alfalfa and red clover. 
Does not winterkill. Produces more on this land than alfalfa 
and red clover and is equal to alfalfa and red clover in 
nutritive value. Sow it on lands too poor, too worn out, too 
sandy for other crops and bring the land into condition to 
produce profitable crops. Make the seedbed fine and compact 
and cover the seed lightly. Inoculate with Nitragin, listed 
below. Plant 20 pounds to the acre from February to March. 
We offer only scarified, hulled, fancy seed, free of dodder, 
of high purity and germination. Prices postpaid: Lb. 45c; 
10 Ibs. $4.00. Write for quantity prices. 
CRIMSON CLOVER. Very productive and greedily eaten by 
cattle. An annual clover. Remains green longer than Red 
Clover and is excellent for bee food. Largely used for green 
manuring. Sown in August it may be plowed under the fol- 
lowing June. Sow 15 Ibs. per acre. Per lb. 45c; 10 Ibs..$4.00, 
postpaid. Write for quantity prices.
