845 Giant Blue Panicum is. a marvel among. pasture 
grasses. It is a deep-rooted per! bunch grass that 
'forms good sized, tough crowns by means*®@f thick, short, 
’ bulbous rhizones. The plants may reach a height of six 
feet under the best of growing conditions. The porhae half 
ranch- 
ing from the lower nodes is common if the main stem is cut 
' off. The panicles are terminal on the stems and branches. 
It doesn’t make much growth for the first several months 
during which time it is .building a root system. After it 
gets the roots well established it grows amazingly fast 
and is resistant to drought. It prefers heavy loam soils of 
oo de ihe and needs irrigation if annual rainfall is under 
inches. 
Panicum is a sweet. grass used for hay and pasture. It 
/is rich in protein and food value and yields per acre more 
than double that of Alfalfa. Seed should be planted in 
moist soil and covered lightly using only one pound per 
acre. 14 lb. 50c; lb. $1.20; 5 lbs. $4.85. Not prepaid:

830 Carpet Grass is valuable permanent grazing grass for 
the South, spreading by creeping stems which root at every 
joint. Compared with Bermuda Grass, Carpet Grass-is its 
equal in feeding value; it may be grazed considerably later 
in, the fall and earlier in the spring; it does better on poor, 
sandy soils; it is better adapted to wet sour soils and thrives 
better under hot, humid conditions. Like Bermuda, it is 
palatable and relished by all livestock. 
It stands close grazing and heavy trampling. Can be sown 
over your present pasture, creek bottom, or cut-over wood- 
land without plowing or discing. Easily eradicated by plow- 
ing, It does splendidly sown with Lespedeza, Dallis Grass, 
Black Medic and White Clover. Carpet Grass can be grown 
wherever the temperature does not. fall below 10 degrees. 
It is a drought-resisting grass and furnishes fine grazing 
during long dry spells. Sow at the rate of 10 to 15 Ibs, per

Dalhs Grass 
834 (Paspalum Dilatatum.) One of the most valuable per- 
manent pasture grasses in the South. Comes nearer growing 
year-round than any other grass. Makes its fastest growth 
on moist bottomland, but gives satisfactory results on dry 
hill lands, and will even grow in burnt-over timber land. 
It stops washes and gullies. Withstands continued drought 
well. We know of no better grass to withstand flood econ- 
ditions. Light freezes do not injure this grass. 
Dallis Grass grows well with Lespedeza, also White Dutch, 
Alsike, Hop, Black Medic and Persian Clover. The spring 
planting commences in January. Broadcast 10 to 15 Ibs. 
per acre if sown alone.

828 This fine-leaved lawn grass will thrive well both in the 
full sun’ and in dense shade. Because it grows only 3 to 4 
inches tall, it requires little mowing. The new strain we 
are offering’ grows as rapidly as St. Augustine Grass in warm 
weather, is immune to chinch bugs and has a tendency to 
crowd out crab grass. Formerly this grass could not be 
planted from seed, for seed production was exceedingly dif- 
ficult; however, much experimentation and laboratory work 
has now made this excellent lawn grass available to you in 
its easiest planting form—seed. Full directions for planting 
with each purchase. Lb. $2.95: 5 lbs. $13.75. Not pre-

both high and low soils and will 
grow on drier land than other
