$22 Alta Fescue has ereat promise of being the greatest all 
year round pasture, hay and silo grazs for the South, It is 
@ perennial grass attaining a height of from 2% to 3 feet. 
Grows practically the year round in favorable seasons. 
The growth may be somewhat slow the first year while an 
extensive root system is being developed, but should be 
rapid and vigorous after that time. Alta Fescue is adapted 
to nearly all soils in the South that will retain the needed 
moisture and is particularly tolerant to wet and-even over- 
flowing land, 
The seeds may be sown in February and March. Sow at 
the rate of 10 to 15 lbs. of seeds per acre. Lb. 95c; 5 Ibs. 
$4.50. Not prepaid: 10 Ibs. $7.00; 100 lbs. $65.00. 
KO/LULCKY LTOS CUE 
823 Kentucky 31 is a perennial bunch grass. The bunches 
increase in size and it eventually makes a close tight sod. 
It puts up blades in great numbers. It is best suited for 
use as a permanent pasture grass since it builds up a heavy 
dense sod that prevents erosion, and holds up livestock in 
wet, muddy weather, and produces large amounts of succu- 
lent pasture the year around. It will grow almost any- 
where but the better the soil, the better the grass. It is 
particularly, suited to wet ground and will survive water 
standing on it for weeks at a time. It also grows well on 
high ground and stands drought well. Plant 10 to 20 pounds 
to the acre depending on whether a dense sod is desired or 
not. Lb. $1.00; 5 Ibs. $4.75. Not prepaid: 10 Ibs. 
$7.50; 100 lbs. $70.00. 
845 Giant Blue Panicum is a new marvel among pasture 
grasses. It is rich in protein and food value. Panic Grass is a 
perennial bunch grass. It doesn’t make much growth for the 
first several months during which time it is building a root 
system. After it gets the roots well established it grows 
amazingly fast and is resistant to drought. Seed should be 
planted in moist soil and covered lightly using only 1 pound 
per acre. It may be advisable to mix the fine seed with some 
dry sand in order to be able to sow the seeds evenly. Roll- 
ing after planting the seed will often improve the germina- 
tion and give a better stand. % lb. 50c; lb. $1.60; 5 lbs. 
$7.50. Not prepaid: 10 Ibs. $13.00; 100 lbs. $125.00.

weather than any of the other 
Summer grasses. Hot weather, 
eold weather, dry weather, rich 
land, eroded land, clay or sand— 
Pensacola Bahia will thrive and 
grow. Relatively unknown 5

CARPE A 
GRASS 
$30 Carpet Grass is one of the most important and valuable 
permanent grazing grasses for the South. A _ perennial 
spreading by creeping stems which root at every joint, thus 
forming a close, compact turf. Compared with Bermuda 
Grass, Carpet Grass is its equal in feeding value; it may be 
grazed considerably later in the fall and earlier in the 
spring; it does better on poor, sandy soils and furnishes 
more grazing; it is better adapted to wet sour soils and 
thrives better under hot, humid conditions. Like Bermuda, 
it. is palatable and relished by all livestock. 
It is strictly a pasture or lawn grass and stands close 
grazing and heavy trampling; in fact, it grows best and 
spreads more rapidly when closely grazed and trampling 
seems to improve it. Can be sown over your. present 
pasture, creek bottom, or cut-over woodland without plow: 
ing or discing. Produces practically year-round succulent 
green pasture, Easily eradicated by plowing. It. does splen- 
didly sown with Lespedeza, Dallis Grass, Black Medic, White 
Clover and Bur Clover. Carpet Grass can be grown wher- 
ever the temperature does not fall below 10 degrees. It is a 
drought-resisting grass and furnishes fine grazing during 
long dry spells, when all other grasses are dead. Carpet 
Grass is easy to start, if you plant first quality seed. Sow 
at the rate of 10 to 15 Ibs. per acre for pasture and 25 to 
30 Ibs, for lawns, public parks and golf courses. Lb, 55c; 
5 lbs. $2.40. Not prepaid: 10 Ibs. $3.30; 100 Ibs. $30.00. 
DallisiGrass 
834 (Paspalum Dilatatum.) One of the most valuable 
permanent pasture grasses in the South, Comes nearer grow- 
ing year-round than any other grass. Cultivation readily 
kills it. Makes its fastest growth on heavy or moist bottom- 
land, but gives satisfactory results on dry hill lands, ‘and 
will even grow in burnt-over timber land. It stops washes 
and gullies. Withstands continued drought remarkably well. 
We know of no better grass to withstand flood conditions 
on lowlands. Light freezes do not injure this grass. 
Dallis Grass grows well with Lespedeza, also White 
Dutch, Alsike, Hop, Bur, Black Medic and Persian Clover. 
Plantings are made the year-round, but principally in late 
summer and early fall, and in the spring commencing in 
January. Broadcast 10 to 15 Ibs. per acre if sown alone. 
834 Imperted Seed. (50% or better pure live seed.) Lb. 
$1.10; 5 lbs. $5.25. Not prepaid: 10 Ibs. $8.25; 100
