If Wanted by Mail, Add 10 Cents Per Pound for Postag:e. TIMOTHY (PHL,EUM PRATENSE) The most widely grown and probably most valuable grass used for Hay in this country.

BROMUS INERMIS, OR AWNLESS BROME GRASS. An exceedingly valuable grass, succeeds and produces immense crops of high nutritive value on the sterile and arid plains of our Western States, growing luxuriantly on dry. sandy soils, where other grasses would perish. It is perennial, and once sown down will stand for 10 years. A good Hay crop can be had the first season, followed afterwards by an immense amount of succulent pasturage; two crops a year can be had from it, often running over 5 tons cured Hay per acre. When fully grown the plant stands from 4 to 5 feet in height and stools out freely; it is ready to cut the latter part of June. Sow broad- cast at the rate of 20 lbs. per acre (14 lbs. per bushel). Per lb. 25c; per bushel $; per 100 lbs. $ Meadow Fescue, or English Blue Grass (Festuca pratensis) — One of the best of the natural or permanent meadow grasses. I
