ARE YOUR PASTURE ACRES PAYING THE 
="PROFIT YOU DESERVE FROM THEM? 
Properly managed, good pasture is the 
least expensive source of good dairy feed. 
Every acre should be made to produce its 
maximum of grazing. The high-quality 
pasture seeds listed on these pages are the 
foundation for a clean, heavy-producing 
pasture. They will do their part to help 
make milk checks bigger, increase livestock 
weight, better poultry returns. 
PERMANENT PASTURE MIXTURE 
(HIGHLAND) 
Heavy-producing mixture blended after 
long observation of the various grasses 
over the Eastern territory. Widely used. 
Made up of quality grasses in proper pro- 
portions to produce heavy, lasting stands 
on well-drained, hilly or rolling land. Con- 
tains blue grasses, red top, orchard grass, 
some timothy, Ladino, proper amounts of 
other clovers, and fescues or rye grasses. 
Sow spring or fall at rate of 25 to 32 
pounds per acre. 
(LOWLAND) 
A special blend adapted for low, wet 
places. Includes some Reed Canary, and 
increased portions of Alsike, Herd Grass— 
other seeds that thrive in low areas. High- 
est quality seeds only.

KENTUCKY BLUE GRASS 
The leading pasture grass for good soils 
in most Eastern sections; perhaps the 
hardiest of perennial grasses. Prefers sweet 
soil; responds quickly to phosphate and 
lime. Growth rarely exceeds two feet. Sow 
30 to 385 pounds per acre. Is a slow 
grower; best sown with quicker-growing 
seeds. These take hold and are replaced 
by the Kentucky Blue to form a tough, 
permanent sod. Fine on sharp slopes and 
limestone valleys. 
RED TOP 
One of the surest grasses to catch and 
make pretty good growth under almost 
any soil condition, wet or dry, rich or 
poor, sweet or sour. Palatability is low, 
hence is used chiefly in mixtures along 
with other grasses. Is vigorous, drought 
resisting, makes a coarse, loose turf. Seed 
very scarce, extremely high priced now. 
PERENNIAL RYE GRASS 
A good grass in pasture mixtures on fer- 
tile, moist soils, since it establishes itself 
quickly and makes a lot of growth in a 
short time. Usually crowded out over a 
period of time by the Kentucky Blue. 
Quick, rich grazing; can be cropped close.
