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 
brand, The Iowa Experiment Station recommends treating grass seed. 
Our Gro-Coat process is more than a chemical treatment. See pages 
2-3. This gives you a large, extra measure of assurance of stands. 
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. 
Towa 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. Also, read about our clover and grass com- 
bination in pages 18, 19 and 21. 
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. 
We are at the door of the World’s Largest Timothy seed producing 
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 
steadily becoming stronger. A few years ago Timothy seed prices 
more than doubled ina very short space of time. We do not expect 
such wild advances but we definitely do expect higher prices to pre- 
vail later in the season. We strongly urge you to order promptly.
