FIELD GRASS SEEDS 
ALFALFA 
Sow 12 to 15 Ibs. per acre 
GRIMM ALFALFA. State Sealed and Certified Seed. Grimm Al- 
falfa is a very hardy and consistent producer, and is recom- 
mended for all sections where alfalfa in considered to have a 
place. Highest grade seed. 
LADAK ALFALFA. A variety ideally adapted to dry soils which 
cannot successfully grow the more common varieties. Will 
produce one heavy crop, and in case the moisture is not suffi- 
cient to continue its growth, will survive through the season, 
to come again after winter rains have revived it. Strongly re- 
sistant to freezing. Also gives good results under irrigation 
in the Northwest. 
COMMON OR CHILEAN ALFALFA. Universally grown propular 
long-rooted variety. Best adapted to deep soils. 
CLOVER 
MAMMOTH RED CLOVER. Also called ‘’Pea Vine’’ Clover. This 
variety grows larger and coarser than the medium and is often 
used for plowing under to enrich the soil. American grown 
seed. 6 to 10 lbs. per acre. 
LADINO WHITE CLOVER. Isa very large form of clover, usually 
making a growth of 8 to 12 inches. A perennial. The stems 
lie flat on the ground and commonly root at the joints. Can 
be grown on rather shallow land where well supplied with 
humus and moisture. Medium heavy types of soil. Sow 4 to 
6 Ibs. per acre. 
WHITE DUTCH CLOVER (Trifolium repens). A very hardy 
creeping clover, which adapts itself to a great variety of soils 
and climates. Superior for pasture either for sheep or cattle. 
As a bee pasture it is unexcelled. Sow 6 to 8 Ibs. per acre. 
YELLOW SWEET CLOVER, BIENNIAL (Melilotus officinalis) . 
In great demand on account of its earliness, being about two 
weeks earlier than the white. Produces high quality hay. 
Sow 12 to 15 Ibs. per acre. 
WHITE SWEET OR BOKHARA CLOVER, BIENNIAL (Melilotus 
Alba). Excellent for pasture, hay and a soil improver. More 
drouth-resistant than alfalfa and will generally produce a large 
crop of seed and hay the second year. Thrives on light alkali 
soil. Sow 12 to 15 lbs. per acre. 
RED CLOVER. (Trifolium pratense). Is excellent for pasture 
and hay purposes. Will thrive in slightly wetter and more 
acid land than alfalfa. Is used in the higher altitudes and 
colder sections. Sow 6 to 10 Ibs. per acre. 
ALSIKE (Trifolium hybridum). Very hardy, adapted for sowing 
on cold, wet land. It yields a large amount of hay or pasture 
and is a good bee plant. Sow 8 to 10 Ibs. per acre. 
FIELD CORN 
See Vegetable Seed, page 7. 
FLAX 
FLAX may be grown with good success in the West. It matures 
quickly and may be planted as late as the middle of June and 
mature seed. Yields 10 to 20 bushels per acre. May be used 
with success as a nurse crop for clovers and grasses where 
there is plentiful summer moisture. Sow 42 Ibs. per acre. 
GRASSES 
BROMUS INERMIS (Awnless Brome Grass). The best grass we 
have for the drier regions of the Northwest. Grows luxuriantly, 
is freely eaten dry or green by cattle. Sow 25 to 30 Ibs. per 
acre. Spring or fall. 
MEADOW FESCUE (Festuca pratensis). This is a very valuable 
species for permanent grass lands and is relished by livestock 
both as hay and pasture. Sow 15 to 20 lbs. per acre on well 
prepared soil. 
OAT GRASS, TALL MEADOW. The earliest grass to start in the 
spring and holds well into the fall. Withstands rather dry, 
warm and cold conditions much better than many other 
grasses. A long-lived, deep rooted perennial. Grows equally 
on bottom or upland. Sow 20 to 30 Ibs. per acre.

TIMOTHY (Phleum pratense). This is a very valuable grass for 
hay. Thrives best on moist, loamy soil. Sow early in the spring 
or fall. Sow 8 to 10 lbs. per acre. 
PASTURE MIXTURE FOR BURNED-OVER LAND. A blend of 
grasses for sowing on burns and logged-off lands. Splendid 
value and very economical for such purposes. Sow 10 Ibs. per 
acre. 
RED TOP (Agrostis alba). A valuable grass for most soils. It is 
a good, permanent grass. It should be grazed close. Grows 
successfully on ‘‘alkali’’ bottom lands, where other grasses 
failed. Sow 10 to 15 Ibs. per acre. 
KENTUCKY BLUE GRASS. This is an excellent grass for pasture 
for all kinds of stock. It is very hardy. Th2 roots form a tough 
sod. Blue Grass requires two years to get well started and 
for that reason is often sown in mixture with other grasses. 
Sow 20 to 25 Ibs. per acre. 
SUPERIOR REED CANARY GRASS. A hardy perennial grass 
which succeeds in spite of long summer dry periods. It differs 
from the lowland type or regular Reed Canary Grass in that 
the growth is more upright, leaves more numerous and of a 
lighter green color. Its stems are upright and comparatively 
stiff but not harsh. Primarily a pasture grass with a long life, 
long grazing season and produces a large quantity of very 
succulent, palatable forage. Sow 5 to 12 lbs. per acre broad- 
cast. 
ENGLISH RYE GRASS (Lolium perenne). A strong growing, 
hardy perennial grass, noted for its nutritive qualities. It is 
equally valuable for both grazing and hay. Sow 25 to 30 Ibs. 
per acre. 
ITALIAN RYE GRASS (Lolium multiflorum). A quick growing 
grass, attaining a height of 2% to 4 ft., desirable for tem- - 
porary meadows or pastures. Thrives best on soils that are 
slightly moist, and will even stand considerable overflow. Sow 
25 Ibs. per acre. 
OREGON RYE GRASS. Similar to Italian. The finest rye grass 
grown; superior to imported. Sow 25 Ibs. per acre. 
SUDAN GRASS. An excellent annual drouth resisting forage 
plant. All stock relish it. Seed in spring after soil is warm. 
Sow 20 to 30 Ibs. per acre.
