Buy Timothy Seed at its Best 
You can secure from us the finest of qualities in Timothy seed at 
money-saving prices. In addition you will get the seed Gro-Coated 
(unless you order otherwise.) This gives you a large, extra meas- 
ure of assurance of stands at a cost of 15 to 20ce an acre. Non Gro- 
Coated Timothy seed is t%e per pound less. Timothy is one of the 
surest grasses to make a stand. It is adapted to a wide range of soil, 
and it has a great deal of value. A few years back there were some 
who discredited Timothy, but most of these opinions now are being 
reversed. It is recognized as one of the best grasses and is extremely 
popular in the eastern part of the corn belt™ Iowa still remains the 
chief seed producing state and from here on east it is a very good 
grass. 10 to 12 pounds of seed sows an acre. We are not sure we 
will have enough seed for the season, so we do urge you to buy early.

Some Important Points on Timothy 
Years ago a number of tests were made on Timothy as compared 
with ten other grasses. Over an average of a 16 year period Timothy 
outyielded all other grasses. A yield of 5309 pounds to the acre, the 
next nearest grass 1000 pounds less and some yielding as low as 2464 
pounds per acre. Timothy can be sown either in the spring or in the 
fall. Spring seedings use 10 pounds to the acre; for fall seedings five 
pounds is enough. Timothy combines admirably with Red Clover and 
Alsike Clover. When you combine Timothy with clover you get a 
bigger yield than sowing either of them separately. You will get 
the best quality of Timothy hay by cutting it when the plants are 
beginning to head. You will get the biggest yields if you cut it when 
the seed heads are straw colored, before they are ripe. 
Like any other grass Timothy will respond to 
fertilizer applications and will 
greatly increase its 
yield on good land.

Berry's Prices Save You Money on Timothy 
On a comparative quality basis you will find Berry’s prices con- 
sistently lower than the average. This is due in part to our policy 
of direct-to-you sales. That makes savings in every department.

section. We therefore, have direct personal buying connections. 
Transportation charges are lower. The cleaning machinery we have 
is designed to handle the crop efficiently. Supplies of Timothy seed 
are larger than last year. However, prices on all grass seeds are

more than doubled in a very short space of time. We do not expect 
such wild advances but we definitely do expect higher prices to pre- 
We strongly urge you to order promptly.
