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. 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. 
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 
than 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 
kind of soil. Sow 20 to 30 pounds per acre. See Price- 
: 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 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.

to all soils that will produce Corn. Yields heavy, 
straight brush free from heavy center stems. Best to

Seed Corn 
Lancaster County Sure Crop. One of the best va- 
rieties for cribbing as well as for ensilage. Fodder 
very tall and leafy. The ears are long but not very 
thick. Cob is very thin and therefore shells easily. 
It is a sure cropper and will mature in any part of 
Pennsylvania. If any seed is available, it will be 
quoted on the Price-List. L ; 
Eureka Ensilage. The largest-growing ensilage Corn 
in existence is grown in Virginia. This is a white

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 growth, they grow closer 
together, their roots interlacing, covering the soil and 
forming a protection from the extreme heat, cold and 
dry weather. 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 
20 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. 
FRANGHLANTONE 
A hormone preparation which, when mixed in water, 
makes a very effective starting solution. Makes toma- 
toes, tobacco, and cabbage mature earlier and increases 
the crop. Use it in transplanting all kinds of flowers, 
vegetables, and shrubs. Used successfully in Lancaster 
County on tobacco and tomatoes for the past four 
seasons at the rate of one-half ounce to 50 gallons of 
water in the transplanting machine. Be sure to try 
this out. 14-oz. pkt. (enough for 1 barrel) 25c; 3-oz. 
pkg. (enough for 114 acres) $1.00; 1-Ib. pkg. (enough 
for 8 acres) $4.00.
