TIMOTHY 
Grasses may come and grasses 
may go but Timothy goes on forever. 
Timothy is a grass that has been 
grown for many years. New grasses 
have come in and some have pre- 
dicted that they would replace Timo- 
thy altogether. The amount of Tim- 
othy seed used, however, is about as 
large as ever. Possibly this is due in 
part to the fact that more grass seed 
is being sown. The reason Timothy 
maintains its popularity is because 
it is one of the surest grasses to make 
a stand. It grows on a wide area of 
soils. It is adapted to a wide range 
of climates. It helps to check soil 
washing better than straight clovers. 
It can be used alone or in combina- 
tion with clovers and alfalfa to pro- 
duce valuable money making crops. 
You can make money out of hay, 
pasture or seed. A seeding lasts for 
several years. It only takes 10 to 12 
pounds to the acre. Therefore it is 
one of the most economical grasses 
to SOW.

Brome Grass 
One of the Most Valuable of All 
Grasses 
There is a tremendous interest in 
Brome Grass throughout the north- 
eastern quarter of the United States. 
From Kansas to the Dakotas, across 
the entire nation, Brome Grass is 
showing itself to be a very profitable 
crop. Practically every state experi- 
ment station has one or more bul- 
letins or circulars telling about this 
great crop. They all praise its 
drought resistance which comes from 
its deep root system. Its palatability 
which it keeps even after plants are 
dry. Many give reports on the high 
feeding value and heavy production 
of Brome especially when grown 
with Alfalfa. 
Brome-Alfalfa mixture better than 
straight Brome, at ‘rate, of 12% lbs: 
Brome and 8 lbs. Alfalfa per acre. 
Alfalfa furnishes nitrogen, keeps 
Brome from becoming “sod-bound.”

grass. Suitable for lawns and fine 
for pasture. Long-lived perennial, 
for all soil types; does well on poorly- 
drained land.

over Ryegrass, being less coarse 
and bunchy and long-lasting. Fights 
crabgrass.

cellent for hay or pasture. Slow to

lasting. Sow 6 6to 10 lbs. per acre.

SUDAN GRASS 
Do not sow until corn planting time 
or after. Prepare a good seed bed 
like that for Corn. Drill in close rows 
or broadcast. Cover the seed about 
an inch deep. Sow 20 to 25 lbs. per 
acre. Begin pasturing it when it is 
about 8 inches high. It can be pas- 
tured until frost. Many consider it 
best not to pasture Sudan after frost 
as there is some danger of prussic 
acid developing while it is in a dying 
condition. Any growth there may be 
at that time can be used for hay and 
silage to be fed later. Generally cut 
for hay when in bloom, but can be 
cut earlier or later.
