A COMBINATION OF DIFFERENT 
A Many-Purpose Grass Seeding 
Every year farmers are learning more about using 
grasses. Articles in farm papers and demonstrations of 
pastures and meadows are showing how profitable grasses 
ean be. The value of grass in soil erosion work is now 
more thoroughly appreciated than even before. We are 
all becoming conscious of farms going down the river, 
and we can stop most of that with grasses. We would 
not attempt to go into the matter of soil erosion controls. 
Most everyone realizes that waterways 
should be seeded down. This Master Mix- 
ture serves that purpose and in addition it 
is a great mixture for pasture, as well as for 
meadows. It is a mixture of grasses Ponte. 
without clover. Many need such a mixture 
and want no clovers, others have clovers of 
their own to add to grasses. This Master 
Mixture is seeding that gives very satis- 
factory results and yet is economical to use. 
. 
Making Pastures Pay 
A lot more food can be produced in,.this 
country if the pastures are improved. The 
quality and quantity both can be improved 
by following good pasture practices. Your 
State Experiment Station can probably give 
you Bulletins for your particular area. You 
can improve old pastures by discing, ha 
rowing and reseeding. The use of fertili 
will pay in practically every instance.< 
most common thing's needed are li 
phosphates. 1 or

WITHOUT ANY CLOVERS 
Grasses Used in Master Mixture 
This Mixture contains eight grasses. The Kentucky 
Blue Grass which is well known for its fine feeding value 
and excellent adaptability for pasture purposes. It is a 
long lived perennial. The quick srowing Mountain Brome 
is high in feeding value and a grass that roots deeply. 
The Alta Feseue (ientucky 31 Ty] pe) is a very productive 
grass and is in big demand. 
heavily productive and adapted to stand both dry and wet 
conditions. Red Top is a fast growing per- 
ennial that grows on most any kind of land. 
It. takes hold on spots of poor soil. The 
Meadow Fescue or English Blue Grass will 
do well on many soils and is especially good 
on moist land. These crops are all described 
in this book. 
When you plant a variety of grasses like 
this, livestock like it better. They appre- 
ciate a variety. There are other advan- 
tages in sowing this mixture. All of them 
are perennials and will last a good many 
years from one seeding. Someé of them start 
extremely early in the spring, Some of them 
will stand drouth better than others. You 
have here grasses that will-stand both wet 
and drouth, and that are suitable for a wide 
range of soil. You can use this for water- 
way seeding, on terraces or in any regular 
pasture combination. You can also get a
