Seat ace Ohio 
DEAR SCOTT CUSTOMER: 
The seed “cupboard” is about bare on alfalfa, timothy, brome and sweet clo- 
ver but on red clover, alsike, lespedeza, meadow fescue and a few other items there 
will be about a normal carryover for another season. A government price support 
program has been set up to apply to 1949 production of hay and pasture seeds. 
This should encourage production but at the same time it means the consumer 
can’t expect prices to get very low. 
SEED CORN 
There is plenty of time for delivery on seed corn. The quality is excellent, grad- 
ing is uniform, all is treated for protection against seedling diseases found in the 
soil and prompt shipment can be made. We have supplies of the best grades on 
nearly all the hybrids listed. Remember there is no extra charge on less than bushel 
orders. 
EMERGENCY HAY AND PASTURE 
Sudan grass, soybeans and millet are most widely used. Sudans are seeded 
at about 20 pounds, millet at 30 to 40 pounds and soybeans at 2% bushels per 
acre. Sudan and millet should be seeded rather shallow and fertilized for satisfac- 
tory stands and vigorous growth. 
COVER CROPS 
Annual and perennial ryegrass, crimson clover, vetch and yellow sweet clover 
may be seeded alone or in mixtures for cover crop purposes. Seeded alone the 
recommended rates per acre are: Ryegrass 20 lbs., crimson clover 15 Ibs., vetch 
25—30 lbs., and sweet clover 15 Ibs. In a mixture each is used at about half the 
normal rate. The legumes should be inoculated. 
SOYBEANS 
HAWKEYE—Quality and yield equal to Lincoln, mature about the same time as 
Richland and stand as well. They are recommended as first choice throughout 
Ohio and since earlier than Lincoln are better suited where wheat is to follow 
beans. Certified $4.75 per bushel. From Certified $4.25 per bushel. Inocula- 
tion included. 
RICHLAND-—A stiff stalked, high yielding, medium early variety. They are best suited 
to dark productive soils. Uncertified $3.60 per bushel. Inoculation included. 
LINCOLN—A high yielding, top quality, full season variety. About a week later than 
Hawkeye and Richland and not as resistant to lodging. Adapted where seed- 
ing wheat after beans is not a problem. Certified $3.85 per bushel; Uncertified 
$3.50 per bushel. Inoculation included 
BLACKS—Suited for hay production, finer stemmed and leafier than the yellow 
varieties. Use 2—2% bushels per acre, $3.60 per bushel. Inoculation included. 
WE WILL HAVE some of the new early Monroe variety next year.
