Introducing Another Native American . . - 
NATIVE SAND LOVEGRASS 
Native Sand Lovegrass has proved 
to be one of the most valuable and 
useful grasses for the Great Plains 
area. It has long been known as the 
ICE CREAM GRASS because of its 
high palatability to livestock. 
It grows best on sandy land, but it 
has done remarkably well on heavy 
soils when seeded there. It is equal 
to the famous short grasses like Blue 
Grama and Buffalo Grass in average 
content of protein and minerals, but 
contains more Vitamin A. 
It starts growth much earlier in the 
spring, produces more total forage, 
and remains green much later in the 
fall than most other natives. It has 
the ability to retain in its winter- 
cured condition 50 per cent of the high 
food value it possesses during the 
growing season. 
Seed is very fine. One to two 
pounds per acre is sufficient.

“PURTY WEED" KOCHIA 
MAKES WONDERFUL FORAGE 
The most important facts about 
KOCHIA, commonly called “firegush,” 
are: it is 1) comparable to Alfalfa as 
a feed—either hay, pasture or silage; 
2) highly palatable; 3) Drought re- 
sistant. It thrives as well as driest 
plants during rain shortages, and 
grows well with plenty of moisture on 
almost any soil; 4) Grasshoppers won’t 
touch it; 5) Easily controlled. As an 
annual, a good discing at the right 
time will kill plants not wanted; 
6) High in protein and ash; 7) Grows 
on ALKALI lands. We better not say 
too much; we have only a _ limited 
amount of the seed for sale.

SLENDER WHEATGRASS 
A member of the nutritious drought 
resistant Wheatgrass family. Slender 
Wheatgrass yields more as pasture and 
hay on fertile soil where sufficient 
moisture is available. 
50 Ibs. $20.50; 100 Ibs. $40.00 
DOMESTIC RYEGRASS 
A short-lived perennial we favor be- 
eause of its early spring growing 
habit, high palatability, excellent 
growth, and high production. Can be 
planted alone or in mixture in annual 
and perennial pastures. 
50 Ibs. $10.50; 100 Ibs. $20.00 
PERENNIAL RYEGRASS 
A long-lived palatable grass used to advantage in perennial pasture mixtures 
for cattle and sheep. 
50 ibs. $13.25; 100 Ibs. $25.50
