Permanent Pasture and Lawn Grasses 
For quantity prices by express or freight see yellow page at front of catalog. 
Prices are subject to market fluctuations. 
TIMOTHY—As a crop of hay Timothy is probably 
unsurpassed by any other kind of grass. Makes 
excellent spring and summer grazing and is usually 
sown at the rate of 10 to 12 pounds per acre. 
When Red Clover is sown with it at the rate of 
6 pounds per acre with 8 pounds of Timothy it 
makes an excellent combination. 
MEADOW FESCUE—This is one of the best combi- 
nations for permanent pasture that we know of 
and have found that it adapts itself to different 
soils and conditions very readily. It gives a large 
amount of early and late pasture and does not 
freeze out or winter kill. It is very drought re- 
sistant. Usually sown 15 to 25 pounds per acre. 
RED TOP GRASS—Is a perennial turf forming grass. It is well adapted to 
wet or moist soil, low in fertility and on acid lands for hay. Red Top is of 
great value for sowing in gullies or in soils which are inclined to wash 
from heavy rains. 
ORCHARD GRASS—Does well on all kinds of soil and more especially on 
soil that is inclined to be sandy. 
KANSAS GROWN ACHENBACH BROME GRASS-—Is gaining popularity 
each year on account of its good quality pasture during the dry, hot sum- 
mer months. It is rather difficult to get a stand of Brome and the seed 
needs to be hand sown and covered very lightly. 
RYE GRASS—Sown in the fall will make an abundance of pasture the first 
season. When used with Korean Lespedeza you have an unbeatable com- 
bination. It is not definitely necessary to have a prepared seed bed, but 
results have shown that you will get a better stand by so doing. When 
sown at the rate of one poun dto 100 sq. ft. in your lawn, you will have a 
beautiful lawn throughout the winter. 
Red Top Grass 
KENTUCKY BLUE GRASS—tThe standard grass for lawns and pastures all over America for the past 
century. It is winter hardy and turf forming. 
BERMUDA—Without a doubt the most dependable turf forming grass yet to be found. Unsurpassed for 
lawns and pastures. Does exceptionally well under dry sunny conditions. Good in mixtures with other 
lawn and pasture grasses, such as common rye grass, White Dutch Clover, Lespedeza and Hop Clover. 
It can be purchased both hulled and unhulled. We recommend the hulled as it germinates rauch quicker 
than the unhulled. However, the unhulled can be planted a few weeks earlier than the hulled. 
KENTUCKY 31 FESCUE: Kentucky 31 fescue is a perennial, bunch grass which, when kept grazed or mowed 
closely, forms a thick, heavy sod. Being a perennial, it makes a permanent pasture wilhout reseeding. 
Perhaps Kentucky 31 fescue differs most from other grasses in its wide adaptability. No grass of which 
we have knowledge will make as satisfactory growth under as many different conditions. It has given 
good results on some poor, run-down soils, on wet marshy land and under many other conditions where 
other grasses have failed. It is particularly well adapted to wet, cold-natured land. No doubt, one thing 
that enables Kentucky 31 fescue to thrive under such adverse circumstances is its tremedous root system. 
Probably no other common forage grass develops so extensively below ground. Thougb good sods have 
been established on poor soil, Kentucky 31 fescue gives best results on fertile land. 
QUICK GREEN LAWN GRASS 
MIXTURE—A mixture that has 
proven itself over and over. We 
believe that it is better than 
straight blue grass. It is made 
up principally of blue grass 
and Rye Grass and other grasses 
that will grow rapidly and make 
a good showing immediately. For 
a nice, thick lawn sow one pound 
to 100 square feet.
