WHEATGRASSES 
Noted for their early spring growth with high 
production of lush forage, Wheatgrasses have 
been unexcelled for pasture, hay and the re- 
vegetating of depleted range and farm land. We 
present below four most important varieties. 
GREEN PASTURE ALL SUMMER | 
for Cattlemen—for Sheepmen—for Seed Growers 
Ree Wheatgrass is a South Dakota Experiment Station selection of Inter- 
mediate Wheatgrass. Vigorous seed, germinating within a week, producing fast 
growing seedlings.... Plants begin growing early in the spring reaching 
height of 3 or 4 feet by midsummer. REE is a PERENNIAL SOD FORMING 
GRASS which spreads by means of creeping root-stocks ... stays green 
throughout the summer. Leafy ... relished by all classes of livestock. ... 
Plant 4 to 6 pounds per acre on firm seedbed. 
Produces HEAVY PASTURE ... Nutritious Hay ... CASH SEED CROP. 
10 Ibs. $5.75; 50 Ibs. $27.50; 100 Ibs. $54.00 
CRESTED WHEATGRASS 
Drouth Defying—Builds Beef and Mutton 
A drouth resistant long lived peren- 
nial bunch grass introduced by Pro- 
fessor Hansen of the South Dakota 
State College, who found it in Si- 
beria. Crested comes on earlier in the 
spring than any other grass, and stays 
green later in the fall. It is one of 
the most drouth resistant of the 
wheatgrasses and shows no bad effect 
For best results, alfalfa or yellow 
sweet clover should be planted with 
Crested. Crested Wheatgrass contains 
as much as 35% protein when it is 
a young plant, which explains the 
phenomenal gains obtained from pas- 
turing it. Planting rate—8 to 12 lbs. 
from heavy grazing. : per acre. 
Fairway, finer, leafier and more nutritious strain Crested Wheatgrass 
50 ibs. $18.50; 100 Ibs. $36.60 
No. 1 Standard Crested Wheatgrass 50 Ibs. $17.50; 100 Ibs. $35.00 
WESTERN WHEATGRASS 
Western Wheatgrass is a native perennial and even in the early days before the rail- 
roads crossed the prairies, it brought a premium of 20% over all other prairie hays. 
Western Wheatgrass makes rapid growth by means of strong creeping rootstocks pro- 
ducing good ground cover and heavy sod. It is one of the most palatable of grasses for 
high protein and especially relished by livestock. Western Wheatgrass is a high hay pro- 
ducer and will withstand extremes in temperature. 
Plant from 6-10 lbs. per acre. Supplies of Western Wheatgrass are very limited and 
we suggest you place your orders early for this item. 
50 Ibs. $31.50; 100 Ibs. $62.00 
TALL WHEATGRASS 
%* DROUGHT RESISTANT. 
% VERY ALKALI TOLERANT—The only good producer on subirrigated 
alkali soil. 
% A REAL BEEF PRODUCER—The Colorado Experiment Station showed 
a gain of 227 lbs. of beef per acre. 
* TOP HAY PRODUCER—Has yielded up to 5% tons forage in one cutting. 
% PLANT ONLY 4 to 6 Ibs. per acre. 
If you have wasteland on which you now are raising nothing but saltgrass and weeds— 
if you have alkalli ground on which nothing is growing—if you have low sleepy ground 
where nothing but coarse weeds grow—or if you have good fertile soil—THEN, TALL 
Wheatgrass is the grass you want. , 
50 Ibs. $16.50; 100 ibs. $32.00
