soil provided it is fairly moist. Will not 
endure wet soils. It is one of the most 
drouth resistant of the cultivated grasses. 
Makes a quick start after pasturing and 
stands pasturing well. One of the first 
grasses to start in the spring and last to 
die in the fall. 
Timothy (Phileum Pratense). 15 pounds 
per acre. A perennial grass having a very 
short root stock and, therefore, grows in 
more or less compact tufts. The stems, 
which usually reach a height of from 1 to 
4 feet or more, are smooth and generally 
erect. The leaves are generally short com- 
pared with the height of the plant. Tim- 
othy is adapted to cold, moist or wet lands, 
also heavy clay soils. However, does not 
thrive on sour soils or impoverished sandy 
or shallow soils. Although root system is 
shallow it stands drouth fairly well. It is 
very resistant to cold. 
Tualatin Meadow Oat Grass. A selection 
made from the ordinary Tall Meadow Oat 
Grass, and has the following improve- 
ments: It is leafier; the leaves are finer; 
the vegetative growth is more upright; 
the stems are finer, rather soft, and reach 
a height of 4 to 414 feet; it is much 
more palatable than ordinary Tall Meadow 
Oat Grass and will withstand pasturing 
much better without injury. 
The seed production is very good, there 
being practically no shattering and the 
seed from this new strain may be planted 
with a drill. 
Soil climatic and cultural requirements 
are the same as for Tall Meadow Oat 
Grass. 
MISCELLANEOUS SEED 
Amber Cane. 30 pounds per acre. This 
is the most popular variety for the Pacific 
Northwest. Early in maturity, of medium 
height, slender stalks, with rather few 
leaves, grown chiefly for forage. 
All varieties are sensitive to cold soils 
and should not be planted until about 
two weeks after corn planting. 
Buckwheat. 25 pounds per acre. An erect 
growing annual which under ordinary con- 
ditions attains a height of about 3 feet. 
Is not exacting as to soils. The rather 
light, well drained sandy loams seem best 
suited; however, good crops are produced 
on infertile, poorly tilled land. 
Buckwheat is very sensitive to frost; 
however, the crop may be grown far to- 
ward the north. This is due to the short 
growing season of the plant amounting 
from 10 to 12 weeks. Japanese and Silver- 
hull are the most commonly grown in the 
United States. 
Dwarf Essex Rape. 8 pounds per acre. 
There are several varieties of rape, how- 
ever, Dwarf Essex is considered to be the 
best, in fact is the only one used for pas- 
ture and forage crop purposes. Rape is 
termed as a cool weather plant, therefore 
is adapted to our cool moist climate here 
in the Northwest and is not very exacting 
as to soil requirements. 
Millet. 25 pounds per acre. The millets 
are rapid-growing annuals used primarily 
for forage production purposes. Requiring 
in general the same climatic and soil con- 
ditions as Sudan grass. The plants usually 
attain a height of 3 to 4 feet. The stems 
are erect, rather stiff and the leaves are 
long and broad. 
The seed should not be sown until the 
ground is warm, usually about corn plant- 
ing time. 
Several varieties are used here in the 
Northwest, the most popular being Ger- 
man or Golden, Early Fortune or Hershey 
and Japanese, also known as Billion Dol- 
lar Grass. 
Soy Beans. 50 pounds per acre. The Soy 
Bean is a leguminous annual growing to 
a height of 10 inches or more, depending 
on soil conditions. The plant is erect and 
branching, quite leafy and producing nu- 
merous pods. The leaves vary in size and 
color, depending on the variety. Soy Beans 
are a promising emergency leguminous 
hay crop for various places here in the 
Northwest. 
Soy Beans grow on rather a wide range 
of soils, are quite drouth resistant, and 
will stand excess moisture providing the 
water does not stand for any considerable 
length of time. 
Should be sown about corn planting 
time, rows about 3 feet apart and the 
seed about 3 or 4 inches apart in the row.
