Annual descriptive catalogue of seeds & Nursery stock, Massachusetts, Catalogs; Flowers, Seeds, Catalogs; Vegetables, Seeds, Catalogs; Gardening, Equipment and supplies, Catalogs. 46 JOSEPH BRECK & SONS fCORPOR ATION'^ By using a mixture comprising these species, it will be at once apparent that a rich and luxuriant growth will be securec the entire season, which result cannot possibly be obtained if the stereotyped mixture usually recommended com- poses the sward. It would be almost impossible for us to give a series of tables which would comprehend all the variations of loils, altitudes, and climates. We think, however, that those which we have compiled will be found sufficiently comprehensive to meet nearly all the contingencies that arise in ordinary farming. These mixtures, which we recommend only after careful study and consultation with the best authorities, are of little or no value unless the seeds composing them are [absolutely pure and true to name. We, therefore, especially request those who de- sire to obtain the best results from their mixtures for alternate husbandry, mowing • lands, and permanent pastures, to avoid the probability of disappointment which would naturally attend the placing of orders with parties who have never given any degree of attention to this ?nost important subject, and buy from us direct (or authorized agents), who are the first in this country to make a specialty of this branch of the seed business. We doubt if a full stock of all the grasses which form the components of our mixture could be found anywhere in the United States outside of our own estab- lishment, and know they cannot be obtained in the same quantities and of equal quality. In conclusion, we would say, that although pastures be formed in the best manner as recommended by us, with a com- bination of MANY different species of grasses, yet a judicious mode of treatment afterwards is as necessary to continue theu value.
