BROME GRASS 
BIG GROWING — HEAVY YIELDING — SOUTHERN TYPE 
Most Palatable — Most Protein — Most Valuable Grass 
This is the new extra large growing Brome that is so popular. Will give more forage and hay than 
any other variety and is well worth the difference in price. An Excellent yielding and drough-resistant, 
long-lived grass. Starts early and grows late. Produces a very palatable and nourishing pasture and 
hay. In good years it can be cut as much as three times and will produce up to 7 tons of hay per 
acre. It will produce one seed crop and one hay crop afterwards. It builds the soil. Does well on 
clay, loam and sandy soils. Lasts years, yet easily plowed out. It will stand the most severe winters, 
and will stay green when other grasses are dormant. Seed 15 to 20 pounds per acre on a well-prepared 
and solid seed bed. Use a packer before and after seeding if possible. PLANT IN SPRING, FEBRU- 
ARY TO APRIL, AND FALL, AUGUST TO OCTOBER. One of the best grasses for ditch banks, OUR 
STOCK OF SEED IS THE FINEST QUALITY KANSAS AND NEBRASKA GROWN. This Brome pro- 
duces much more forage and hay than the northern varieties. You will find these acres the most 
valuable on the place. Much higher in protein and bigger yielder than most any other grass. 
BROME AND ALFALFA — A WONDERFUL MIXTURE 
BROME GRASS is unquestionably the best grass to mix with alfalfa for pasture and hay. It has been 
producing outstanding results, As proof, in experiments at Ohio and Kansas Agricultural Colleges, this 
mixture has given 3 to 4 times as much forage as Brome alone, and since Brome is an outstanding 
heavy producer alone it is easy to see why this mixture is being used so widely. For pasture and hay 
usually 10 pounds of Brome is planted to 5 pounds of Alfalfa per acre. Will give you a permanent 
pasture when other permanent pastures are low yielding. It will pay you heavy dividends.
