A splendid reliable hay and pasturage grass. ITALIAN RYE GRASS. This is an annual. Makes splendid crops the first season from fall-sown seed. Yields several cuttings during the year. (See page £8.) ter pas- turage, as it re- mains green throughout the winter. It is very popu- lar in Southwest Virginia, East Tennessee, and the mountainous districts of North Carolina, where it is very highly appreciated as a large-yielding nutritious pasturage and hay grass. It succeeds well in nearly all sections of the South, and should be very largely used in pasturage and hay mixtures, being specially suitable for sowing with Red Top and Timothy for hay,'or with these and Orchard and Tall Meadow Oat for permanent pasturage. Sow either in the spring or fall at the rate of two bushels to the acre, if sown by itself. Price of our Trade Mark Brand of the seed, about $ per bushel (14 lbs.). Red Fescue. {Festuca Rubra.) Valuable hay and pas- turage grass, especially for permanent mixtures. It has creeping roots, which in dry and sandy soils are often as strong as wire-grass. Sow about two bushels per acre, if sown by itself; it is best, however, to sow this with other grasses. (See our Special Mixtures, on page 62.) Per lb. 20c,; per bus. (14 lbs.) $ Sheep Fescue. {Festuca China.) Is a densely tufted perennial grass for dry, sandy and rocky soil where scarcely any other species will grow. It roots deeply, and forms a dense, short tuft, suitable for lawns and pleasure grounds, where the soil is sandy. It affords wholesome food for all cattle, especially sheep. Spe- cially recommended for pasturage mixtures. (See Spe- cial Mixtures, page 62.) Sow about 25 lbs. per acre. Per lb. 20c; bushel of 14 lbs., $ Hard Fe
