Ladino White Clover 
U. S. Department of Agriculture says: *‘Ladino is the largest growing 
form of White Clover. It is similar to ite Dutch, but grows twice as 
large.’ It is a long-lived perennial, excellent for grazing, as well as produc- 
ing a most nutritious and palatable hay crop. Its tap root goes down one to 
three feet. The stems run on the ground, taking root. It is not subject to 
Alfalfa diseases and is ideal to plant after Alfalfa. It does not bloat livestock 
as much as other Clovers, but is safer to plant with Timothy, Red Top, 
Meadow Fescue, Kentucky Blue Grass, Orchard Grass and Rye Grass. 
See Farm Seed Price List for quantity prices. 
Orchard Grass 
One of the best long-lived, deep-rooted grasses for year round pasture or 
hay or to reseed on old Alfalfa sods. It does well on practically every type 
of soil, including acid soils, thrives in the shade, grows vigorously and pro- 
duces large crops of nutritious hay relished by all livestock. It recovers quickly 
when cut or grazed. It grows the year round with maximum growth in the 
spring and fall. Should be included in every hay or pasture mixture. Sow 14 
Ibs. per acre with other grasses or 30 to 35 lbs. alone in early spring or fall.

“Certified” Sweet Sudan Grass 
SWEET SUDAN is a greatly improved Sudan Grass from a hybridization of 
Leota Red Sorghum on common Sudan. It has great palatibility, livestock 
eating it to the ground before touching common Sudan or other forage Sor- 
ghums. SWEET SUDAN has broader leaves, larger stems and makes taller 
growth, stooling heavier than common Sudan. It is a truly great improve- 
ment over common Sudan, and in our opinion will completely replace com- 
mon Sudan ina few years. We recommend that every farmer put in at east 
a part of his Sudan acreage with SWEET SUDAN to prove to himself the 
many advantages for both hay and grazing over common Sudan. Not recom- 
mended: for pasture in sections where Sudan will sunburn as Sweet Sudan is 
a cross with Leota Cane. 
See Price List for quantity prices. 
“Certified” Sudan Grass 
Sudan Grass is primarily a hay grass, its slender leafy stems making it easy 
to handle with ordinary haying machinery. It makes its greatest growth and 
produces the most feed during July, August and September, when native 
grasses are less productive. It can be grown successfully on almost every 
class of soil from a heavy clay to a light sand, besides being particularly 
drought and heat resistant. Primarily an excellent hay crop, Sudan is gaining 
in popularity as a summer pasture. Ready to cut in 45 days. Sow after the 
ground becomes thoroughly warm, preferably broadcast at the rate of 20 to 
25 pounds per acre. A grain drill may be used, set to sow two pecks of 
Wheat. Cut when in bloom, for at that stage the feeding value is highest. 
See Price List for quantity prices. 
~ Permanent Pasture Mixtures 
Sow 18 to 25 Ibs. per acre. 
Pasture is the most economical source of feed for livestock. Our pasture 
mixtures are made up of the highest quality, high germinating seeds. We 
use only the best in all our mixtures. 
See Field Seed price list that came with this catalog for prices.

and Clovers in the proper proportions as recommended by our universities;

taining grasses and Lespedeza in proper proportions as follows: Orchard Grass,

Alsike-Timothy Mixture 
This is a properly balanced Timothy-Alsike mixture, excellent for pasture 
and meadow seeding, particularly valuable for soils that will not grow other 
Clovers, 20-25% Aliske, balance Timothy. 
Brome-Alfalfa Mixture 
Proper combination for Pasture Mixture 70% Native Grown Brome Grass, 
30% Alfalfa. 
eee have shown clearly that you can expect maximum results over 
the longest period of years by growing Brome in combination with Alfalfa 
or some other legume, Alfalfa has proven best. 
{17} 
The Alfalfa feeds nitrogen to the Brome so that it does not become ‘‘sod 
bound."’ Thus the Brome grows taller and hag a higher feeding value. Brome 
in turn holds up the Alfalfa. 
This mixture we offer contains 70% best native grown Brom 
30% our best Kansas grown Alfalfa. Sow this at tite rate of 15-20 Ibs. ie 
acre. See Field Seed Price List for quantity prices.
