Wood’s Grain Pasture Mixture 
Furnishes more grazing in less time and at less 
cost than other spring crops. Highly nutritious 
balanced diet. Cannot cause bloat. Reduces grain 
feed when costs are high. Saves labor in feeding. 
Small grains make more growth in cool weather 
than pasture grass or legumes. Our mixture con- 
tains Oats and Rye Grass, Beardless Barley and 
Atlas Wheat, which grow in colder weather than 
cats. Dwarf Essex Rape stays green and palatable 
in the coldest weather, high in vitamins and relished 
by all livestock, particularly hogs and poultry. Peas 
and Hairy Vetch supply proteins for growth and 
warmth in cold weather and enrich the soil with 
nitrogen. The ideal nurse crop for seeding perma- 
nent pasture mixtures. Drill 100 lbs. per acre in 
March or April. 100-lb. bag $9.00; 5-bag lots $8.75. 
Wood’s Grain Pasture Mixture, the most economi- 
cal feed relished by all livestock, grows off faster in 
cold weather and keeps more animals per acre in 
good healthy condition when permanent pastures are 
short, stimulating milk flow with less grain, hay and 
silage. Disc in on all lespedeza fields for early feed 
Ideal to supplement permanent pastures while they 
recover from close grazing. Popular for poultry and 
hogs. Contains rape and legumes balanced with 
grain so it cannot cause bloat. 
WOOD’S GRAIN HAY MIXTURE 
Makes bumper crops of nutritious hay, easy to 
cure, relished by all livestock. A balanced ration 
of proteins, vitamins and other food elements. Much 
more productive and palatable than oats or any 
other crop sown alone. Ideal nurse crop for seed- 
ing permanent grass and clover, as it comes off 
early. Sow 100 lbs. acre in March or April. Fer- 
tilize well. 100-lb. bag, $9.00; 5-bag lots, $8.75 f.o.b. 
Ben Mayo (right), a booster for Wood’s Perma- 
nent Pasture Mixtures, shows our Bill Wood a 55- 
acre pasture in Edgecombe Co., N. C., last August 
in one of the worst droughts. 135 cattle could 
not keep it grazed down. Although seeded 25 years 
ago, it is much more productive and palatable than 
a nearby pasture seeded 3 years ago with Tall Fescue 
and Ladino Clover, which is about gone. The many 
grasses and clovers in the old pasture still furnish 
a balanced diet that never caused bloat. Dallis grass 
furnished the most grazing during the drought. 
How to Fertilize and Seed a Pasture 
LIME. If the field has not been limed recently 
apply about a ton per acre. It is best to plow or 
disc the lime into the soil before planting. 
FERTILIZER. Deep roots withstand droughts. 
Encourage deep root growth by plowing down % of 
the fertilizer. Harrow in the rest just before seed- 
ing. Use 2-12-12 on heavy or rich soils. Use 5-10-10 
on light or poor soil. Up to 1,000 lbs. per acre pays. 
SEEDING. The secret of good stands is seed shal- 
low on firm seed beds and press the seed to the soil. 
Grass and clover seedlings have short roots and 
must catch hold quickly or die. They smother out 
if crcwded over % inch on heavy soils or 1% inch 
on light sandy soils. Before planting, harrow and 
roll until seedbed is firm. Harrow the seed in very 
lightly, then press firm with cultipacker, or roll. 
Sow 25 Ibs. per acre in early spring or early. fall 
so the seedlings can grow deep roots to withstand 
summer drought and heat or winters freezing and 
thawing. In the Piedmont or Mountains sow our 
Permanent Pasture or Hay Mixtures 1 to 8 to suit 
your soil type. In the Coastal Plains sow our South- 
ern Permanent Pasture and Hay Mixture 12. 
Renovating Worn Out Pastures or Broom Sedge 
Wasteland, where time and labor does not permit 
plowing, follow the above steps as closely as prac- 
tical. Disc or harrow in the lime and fertilizer. Seed 
and roll firm. Lime gets rid of the broom sedge 
and encourages legumes. The many legumes in our 
mixtutres enrich the soil with nitrogen, stimulate 
the growth of good pasture grasses and increases 
their protein mineral and vitamin content, particu- 
larly in hot dry summers. A pasture yields about 
3 times more digestible nutrients after renovation. 
SWAMPS may make your most valuable pasture 
if ditched or drained and Pasture Mixture 3 sown.
