FIELD SEEDS 
CERTIFIED CLINTON SEED OATS. Outstanding for yield, 
test weight and strength of straw. A medium tall, yellow, early 
Oat with plump kernels and thin hulls. Provides valuable Oats 
for feeding. Resistant to halo blight and helminthosporium 
leaf blotch. Of marked advantage in wet years when diseases 
are prevalent. 
PERMANENT PASTURE MIXTURE. A mixture of high- 
germinating seed that will give you a satisfactory pasture. 
Contains nurse-crop seeds as well as more lasting grasses. Use 
at the rate of 25 Ibs. per acre. Ideal for orchards, vacant [ots, 
pastures, grazing lands, etc. 
BLACK WILSON SOYBEANS. A very popular variety used 
primarily as a hay crop. Similar to alfalfa in feed value. Also 
makes excellent green manure. A small-seeded kind, bearing 
pods well above the ground. Plant in late May and June. 
Matures in about 120 days. 
SWEET SUDAN GRASS. Resists foliage disease and drought; 
stays green and continues to grow several weeks in the fall 
after Common Sudan has turned; produces a better quality 
of foliage and more seed. And to this production economy of 
Sweet Sudan, add the still greater economy of its inherent 
ability to promote faster development of livestock. Hog 
raisers and beef cattlemen, as well as dairy farmers, find 
juicy Sweet Sudan Grass a sure way to decrease feeding costs 
through increasing the value of livestock, and thus add to 
their profit. 
TIMOTHY. The leading hay grass, thriving on clay or heavy 
loams, wet or boggy soils, but not on light, sandy ground. 
Perfectly hardy. Does well when grown with other grasses and 
legumes. Unequaled as feed for horses and other livestock. 
KENTUCKY BLUE GRASS. For permanent pasture mixtures. 
Starts to grow early in spring and lasts until late fall. Unin- 
jured by cold winters or grazing and trampling of livestock. 
Needs a rich limestone soil. Forms the basis of all good lawn 
grass mixtures. 
CANADIAN BLUE GRASS. A hardy perennial grass producing 
fine pasturage for cattle. The creeping rootstalks make a 
sturdy turf. Stems are flattened and wiry but rich in food 
value. Grows well on poor, dry soil and stands the extremes 
of wet and drought. 
ORCHARD GRASS. An excellent summer pasture grass, for 
it stands dry weather well. Starts growth early in spring. 
Grows well in the shade and in practically all kinds of soil 
except marshlands. Should be cut for hay just before maturity. 
RED-TOP. Especially good on low, wet bottom Jand. Makes 
pasture and hay of splendid quality. Can be sown in spring or 
fall and should be included im all mixtures intended for per- 
manent pasture. Hardy, and makes a heavy sod. 
DWARF ESSEX RAPE. An annual plant that produces large 
leaves; used as pasture for sheep, hogs, poultry, and cattle. 
Quick and inexpenstve. Can be sown any time from early 
Spring until September. Ready for pasture in six to eight 
weeks. 
PERENNIAL RYE GRASS. A rapid-growing grass most de- 
sirable for pastures. It is best seeded in mixtures. Stands close 
grazing; makes a close, heavy sod. Especially valuable on 
alkali soils. Cut the hay when the plant is in bloom. 
DOMESTIC RYE GRASS. This ts one of the very best grasses 
for use as a cover-crop. It has a deep root system which ts a 
source of organic matter for the soil when plowed under. The 
seed may be sown about the time of the last cultivation. Do- 
mestic Rye also is a valuable addition to pasture mixtures be- 
cause it is such a rapid grower. It provides food for livestock 
in a very short time and is greatly relished by cattle, hogs, 
poultry, sheep and horses. The sturdy plants stand close crop- 
ping and make a quick comeback afterward. Deep prepara- 
tion of the soil prior to planting is not necessary.

stored properly and shipped under the best transportation con- 
ditions. 
A blue tag marked Certified Seed Potatoes is attached to each
