BROME GRASS” 
PERHAPS OUR MOST VALUABLE GRASS 
Brome Grass is one of our grasses most resistant to cold 
and drouth, It’s true that it is a hog for nitrogen, but 
any plant producing as much feed as Brome has to draw 
something from the soil. For a most successful Brome 
pasture sow 12 to 15 pounds of Brome and 6 pounds of 
Alfalfa to provide nitrogen for the Brome. 
We offer 3 Bromes, Lincoln, Home Grown and Northern. 
See Price List enclosed. 
BIRDSFOOT TREFOIL 
(BROADLEAF) 
This is a long lived, deep rooted legume that grows on 
rich land or spoor, wet or dry. It will stand more dry 
Weather than ‘Ladino and provides rich, luscious feed 
when many grasses and clovers have gone dormant. 
i We like Birdsfoot sy trefoil best in combination with other 
grasses for pasture, preferably Timothy. Sow about 2 to 
2% pounds persacre.
