NOTHING MAKES A HOME MORE 
INVITING THAN A GOOD LAWN 


Anyone can have and afford a fine lawn. Properly 
made and intelligently cared for a lawn is neither ex- 
pensive nor hard to maintain. 


The three most important factors with established 
lawns are “plant food” which if applied frequently in 
small amounts, is most beneficial, ‘watering’ which 
should be regular and thorough, wetting the soil six 
inches to a foot deep, and “cutting” which should be 
done at least once a week, not too short, leave enough 
foliage to permit uninterrupted growth. 


No other single feature has so much to do with mak- 
ing the home grounds attractive and inviting as a good, 
well kept lawn. Fortunately such a lawn is within 
reach of every home owner for it is neither expensive 
nor does it entail an excessive amount of work. The 
special grasses that make fine lawns possible are now 
commonly grown and are inexpensive, the art of feed- 
ing lawns for continuous growth is now well under- 
stood. 


Lilly’s CREBENT LAWN SEED 


Years of experience with lawns and lawn seed mix- 
tures guides us in making Crebent Lawn Seed which 
is especially intended for fine lawns in regions where 
climatic and soil conditions permit growth to go on in 
an uninterrupted manner most of the year. Where the 
summer heat is not too intense, where moisture is 
plentiful and where the soil is on the acid side of the 
p.H. scale and well supplied with humus, we know of 
nothing that will give more lasting satisfaction. Genu- 
ine Creeping Bent is the principal ingredient, which is 
supplemented with such other fine leaved permanent 
turf grasses which make a growth that will blend with 
it and take predominance during those periods when 
Bent grass takes its natural rest. The mixture is de- 
signed entirely with a view of securing a vigorous 
green growth the year around. One pound plants 200 
square feet. Packed in 1 and 5 pound cartons. 


Lilly’s EVERGREEN LAWN SEED 


Some types of soil, especially those of volcanic na- 
ture or rich in mineral elements, seem to be ideally 
suited to the establishment of fine Blue Grass turf. 
This is especially true where the winters are cold 
enough to cause a dormant period of several weeks. 
High grade Kentucky Blue Grass therefore constitutes 
the principal ingredient in Evergreen Lawn Seed. This 
is supplemented with other permanent fine-leaved turf 
grasses which combine with it to advantage. Sowing 
all of them in combination gives one a lawn that al- 
ways looks fresh and vigorous because while one or 
more are at their off season the balance of them are 
making good growth and thus the entire lawn always 
looks fine. Evergreen contains grasses that like sun, 
some that like shade, some that thrive best with lots 
of moisture and some that withstand drought beauti- 
fully. Plant a pound to each 200 square feet. In car- 
tons, 1 and 5 pounds. 


Lilly’s N-P LAWN SEED 


A lawn mixture compounded to meet the require- 
ments of places that must stand hard wear, such as 
back yards, playfields, etc. Mixtures that can stand up 
under such conditions surely can be expected also to 
do well when conditions are more favorable. The 
grasses in this mixture normally take their natural 
rest periods at different times during the season, for 
which reason they automatically replace each other in 
predominance, resulting in a good looking turf from 
early spring until late fall. This mixture has been on’ 
the market for many years and thousands of Western 
homes are surrounded by lawns made from it. School 
grounds, parks, playfields, etc. also testify as.to its 
qualities and the satisfaction that comes from its use. 
You can save money and still have a fine lawn with 
N-P. Plant a pound or more to each 200 square feet. 
Packed in one and five pound cartons.

FARM SEEDS 


WE GIVE NO WARRANTY EXPRESS OR IMPLIED AS TO DESCRIPTION, QUALITY, PRODUCTIVENESS OR ANY OTHER 
MATTER OF ANY SEEDS WE SELL AND WILL NOT BE IN ANY WAY RESPONSIBLE FOR THE CROP 


ALFALFA 


Medicago sativa—12 to 15 Lbs. per acre. 
8 to 12 Lbs. per acre on dry lands. 


All the Alfalfa Seed listed here is offered with U. S. 
Verification as to origin. 


Lillys BEST Brand ALFALFA — Because alfalfa 
fields are left for a long time when once established, 
there seems to be no logical reason for using any other 
seed but the best. Lilly’s Best Brand of alfalfa is al- 
ways better than 99% pure, is free from dodder and 
other noxious weed seeds, and consists only of big, 
plump seeds; all small and shrunken seeds having been 
removed, Lilly’s Best Brand Alfalfa is northern grown 
and is therefore more hardy and permanent than 
southern strains. 


Lilly’s ECLIPSE Brand ALFALFA—Equal to most first 
grades on the market, but not as good as Lilly’s 
BEST brand. Northern grown, high purity, strong ger- 
mination, free from noxious weeds. Buy ECLIPSE 
brand common alfalfa and save. 


Lilly’s DESERT GOLD Brand ALFALFA—A special 
strain of large growing certified Chilean alfalfa, the 
seed of which is produced at a high altitude from 
fields that have produced hay and seed for over 25 
years and where the winter temperature has been 
more than 12 below zero. Makes a very leafy, well- 
branched growth, recovers quickly after cutting and 
has given very satisfactory results in the Pacific Coast 
States. Do not confuse this variety with Hairy Peru- 
vian, which is much less winter hardy and much 
shorter lived in the Northwest. 


GRIMM ALFALFA—Its frost-resistance makes it of 
great value in the sections where severe winters pre- 
vail. Its yielding power of forage or hay is no greater 
than that of Common Alfalfa, although the price of 
the seed is generally higher, which is more than justi- 
fied by the extra hardiness and is the best insurance 
against winter-kill. We offer only the best registered 
grades of seed or furnish Growers’ Affidavit. 


LADAK ALFALFA—The hardiest and heaviest crop- 
ping of the Grimm type alfalfas. Produces an extra 
heavy first crop and where moisture is abundant a 
good second and third crop. Where moisture is lack- 
ing after the first cutting, it maintains itself until the 
following season. With the spread of alfalfa wilt dis- 
ease it becomes increasingly necessary to plant resist- 
ant varieties like Ladak, especially in sections where 
wilt is already prevalent. Our seed is registered stock. 


COSSACK ALFALFA—Very similar to Grimm but 
said to thrive better on the heavier types of soil. This 
is an exceptionally hardy alfalfa brought from Si- 
beria. It is a heavy yielder as well as being cold and 
drought resistant. Our seed is Registered stock.

ALSIKE CLOVER—Trifolium hybridum, 6 to 8 Lbs. 
per acre. Prefers a cool climate and will withstand 
severe winters, likes a rather heavy silt or clay soil 
with abundant moisture and is not so sensitive to acid- 
ity in soils as red clover and can therefore be suc- 
cessfully grown on many wet and “sour” lands on 
which red clover will not succeed. Makes bright, dust- 
less hay free from coarseness, its stems are fine and 
cattle consume them without waste. Remains in its 
prime for cutting for a long period, and is especially 
adapted to use in mixture with grasses such as tim- 
othy, redtop, perennial rye-grass and meadow fescue. 
Well suited, too, for use in pasture mixtures where 
because of its quick recovery after grazing and ten- 
dency to seed close to the ground under pasture con- 
ditions it remains permanent where conditions are 
favorable to its growth and grazing is not too close. 
We handle three grades of seed, Lilly’s BEST Brand, 
which is always better than 99% pure; Lilly’s EVER- 
GREEN Brand, 98% pure, and a special Pasture Grade. 
Grade. 


LADINO CLOVER—Trifolium repens latum, 6 to 8 Lbs. 
per acre. A mammoth type of White Clover. It is a 
shallow rooted surface feeder and does well on fer- 
tile soil where moisture is plentiful, and spreads 
somewhat by surface runners and roots at the stem- 
joints; it will, however, run out in 4 or 5 years unless 
allowed to reseed itself or new seed is added. It 
bloats stock badly if fed alone and should therefore 
be mixed with grasses such as English rye-grass, 
meadow fescue and redtop if intended for pasture. We 
are prepared to furnish such a mixture if desired. 
Should not be pastured too closely late in the fall as it 
needs some protective growth to avoid frost injury 
during sever winters. We handle only one grade of 
seed Registered true Ladino. 


WHITE CLOVER—Trifolium repens, 6 to 8 Lbs. per 
acre for pasture, 2 to 24% Lbs. per 1000 sq. ft.for lawns. 
An excellent plant for lawns and pastures and in 
some sections a valuable seed crop. For best growth 
it requires a rather consistent supply of moisture and 
a fertile soil. The seed germinates quickly, makes a 
fast start and has rapid recovery after cutting or pas- 
turing. Has a high-feeding value and thrives best on 
lands containing an abundance of lime. We have 
three grades of seed, Lilly’s BEST Brand, better than 
99% pure; Lilly's FANCY Brand, 98% pure, and Pas- 
ture Grade. 


STRAWBERRY CLOVER—Trifolium fragiferum, 6 to 
8 Lbs per acre. The most alkali tolerant of all legumes, 
makes a vining strawberry-like growth and reaches a 
height of 15 to 20 inches under favorable conditions. 
Adaptable only where moisture is available, suitable 
for pasture west as well as east of the Cascade Moun- 
tains.

CO 


Lilly’s BEST Brand Medium Red Clover 


MEDIUM RED CLOVER—Trifolium pratense, 10 to 
15 Lbs. per acre. The most important of all clovers. 
Adapted primarily to growing in rotations with other 
crops. Valuable as a hay and pasture plant and as a 
seed crop. Makes its best growth on rich, well-drain- 
ed soil containing an abundance of lime and reason- 
ably free of weeds, and produces both a hay and a 
seed crop the same season. Blooms with orchard grass 
or two weeks earlier than timothy. Should be al- 
lowed to go into winter with some growth to protect 
the crowns from winter injury. The normal life of the 
plant is two years, after which the stand deteriorates. 
We can supply two grades of seed—Lilly’s BEST 
Brand, 99%% or better pure, and Lilly’s EVERGREEN 
Brand. 98% pure. 


MAMMOTH RED CLOVER—Trifolium pratense per- 
enne, 10 to 15 Lbs. per acre. A distinct variety known 
also as sapling clover, bull clover and pea-vine clover. 
Makes a rank growth and has a branching root sys- 
tem, later than Medium Red and is preferred for poor 
or sandy soils. There are no absolute distinguishing 
marks by which the seed can be told from medium 
red clover so we handle only seed from fields that we 
are able to inspect during the growing season. 


WHITE BLOSSOM SWEET CLOVER—Melilotus alba, 
12 to 15 Lbs. per acre. Being a biennial, this crop lends 
itself readily to short rotations and, because of its rank 
growth and extensive root development, is a valuable 
soil-improving crop. Makes a sparse growth the first 
season. Useful also as a pasture, hay and ensilage 
plant. 


WILLAMETTE SWEET CLOVER—Stem-rot Resistant, 
12 to 15 Lbs. per acre. Western Oregon and Western 
Washington farmers will be interested in this strain of 
white blossom sweet clover, which is entirely immune 
to stem rot. It was developed at the Oregon Agricul- 
tural College and has been repeatedly tested on soils 
known to be infected and where the ordinary strain 
has failed and in each case it proved to be entirely 
immune. 


YELLOW BLOSSOM SWEET CLOVER—Melilotus of- 
ficinalis, 12 to 15 Lbs. per acre. A biennial variety es- 
pecially recommended for use as pasture, either alone 
or mixed with grasses on dry land or on land that is 
so alkaline that other crops will not catch. Makes a 
good growth early in the season, branches close to the 
ground and reaches a height of 3 to 7 feet.

FARM SEED PRICES 


We are sorry that we cannot show prices on Farm 
Seeds in this catalog. Market values sometimes fluc- 
tuate greatly due to conditions beyond our control. 
We keep our prices in line with market values. 


FIELD PEAS, Pisum Arvense 


Lilly’s YELLOW CANADIAN WONDER PEAS—75 to 
100 Lbs. per acre. A strain of yellow or white Cana- 
dian Peas that is a great improvement on the old type 
which for many years has been the standard. The seed 
is larger and is produced in greater abundance, the 
vine is more robust in its habit of growth and there- 
fore yields a heavier tonnage of hay, which is of good 
quality even when the seed has matured sufficiently for 
threshing. More dependable in some districts for late 
planting for green feed than vetch. 


AUSTRIAN WINTER PEAS—75 to 90 Lbs. per acre. 
A popular European variety, best on the Coast when 
grown as a winter annual and planted early in the fall. 
Spring planting returns good crops in the colder dis- 
tricts and at high altitudes. A good seed crop in the 
North and a valuable cover crop in the South. 3 to 4% 
feet tall. 


BLUE BELL PEAS—75 to 100 Lbs. per acre. Seed is 
larger than the Yellow Canadian, but similar in all 
other respects except color, which is a greenish-blue. 
The yield of both grain and forage is very satisfactory 
and the market often offers a much higher price for 
these than for the yellow sorts. 


Lilly’s MARROWFAT PEAS—90 to 120 Lbs. per acre. 
A special strain of medium-sized marrowfats. The seed 
is larger than that of the varieties listed above and is 
whitish-yellow in color. Grown mostly for milling into 
split peas for table use, they prove to be a good cash 
crop and the hay is equally good for feeding purposes. 


VETCHES 


Lilly’s GRAY or COMMON VETCH—Vicia sativa—60 
to 75 Lbs. per acre. Adapted to either fall or spring 
planting on the Coast and to spring planting in the 
colder regions and well adapted to all vetch growing 
sections. Extensively grown as a seed crop, splendid 
for green feeding, silage or hay. Generally sown with 
grain which serves as a support. 


HUNGARIAN VETCH—Vicia pannonica—60 to 75 Lbs. 
per acre. A variety that is aphis resistant and adapt- 
able to culture on low, wet and sour soils, as well as 
heavy muck bottom lands. If planted early in the fall 
on the Coast can be pastured both fall and spring, in 
addition to producing a hay or seed crop. 


Lilly’s PURPLE VETCH—Vicia atropurpurea—60 to 80 
Lbs. per acre. Very well adapted to spring planting and 
grown successfully as a winter annual in sections 
where the winters are not severe. Makes a fine, leafy 
growth and has a high feeding value. As a cover crop 
in the South it is especially valuable and most of the 
seed grown in the Northwest is shipped south for that 
purpose. 


HAIRY or WINTER VETCH—Vicia villosa—30 to 40 
Lbs. per acre. A biennial sown in the fall like any 
winter grain. Because the seed is much smaller than 
Gray Vetch, 30 to 40 pounds per acre with grain is 
sufficient to insure a good crop. It roots deeply, makes 
good winter growth and is adapted to well-drained 
soils.

a 


GRASSES 


ASTORIA BENT—Agrostis tenius astoriana—7 to 10 
Lbs. per acre for pasture, 2 to 3 Lbs. per 1,000 sq. ft. 
for lawns. Thrives on a wider range of soils than the 
Seaside variety, and pure, natural stands of it have 
been found far inland from the coast and at quite a 
high altitude. A good strain to use on uplands, though 
it, too, does best on moist, acid-reacting soils. Makes 
especially fine golf greens and lawns and seems to 
make a little more winter growth than the other varie- 
ties of bent. We supply both certified and uncertified 
seed. 


HIGHLAND BENT—Agrostis tenuis oregonensis. A 
strain of Oregon grown Rhode Island or Colonial bent 
grass adapted to culture on uplands and requiring less 
water than the other varieties. It makes a heavy, very 
uniform turf of fine texture and can be maintained in 
good condition with minimum care. Certified genuine 
by Oregon State Agricultural College. 


OLYMPIC Brand BENT. A special selection of Coloni- 
al Bent or as sometimes called Washington Bent grown 
on uplands on the Olympic Peninsula where the fields 
are hand rogued to insure purity. This is an extra good 
strain for lawns and is priced right. 


SEASIDE CREEPING BENT—Agrotis palustris. A na- 
tive rather low-growing variety spreading very 
largely by surface creepers or runners and forms a 
dense sod quickly. Its leaves are short and fine, espe- 
cially where the stand is thick. Tends to root rather 
shallow indicating that it is adapted primarily to fertile 
soils where moisture is abundant. It is long-lived, 
winter hardy and well adapted to acid soils. Used 
largely for making fine golf greens and lawns and to 
some extent as an ingredient in pasture mixtures on 
rich bottoms. We handle certified seed. 


DOMESTIC MIXED BENT—Agrostis spp. A western 
grown mixed bent that is in every way superior to the 
mixed bent formerly imported from Germany. Our 
seed is 95% pure. Bent Grasses all require fertile soils 
containing much humus and an abundance of moisture 
in order to thrive. 


REDTOP—Agrostis alba. No grass has greater value as 
a forage crop or will grow under as great a variety of 
soil and climatic conditions. With ample moisture it 
makes continuous growth and produces a high quality 
of forage, ranking second only to Kentucky Bluegrass 
as a pasture plant for which purpose it is especially 
valuable. It matures about the same time as Timothy 
and fits nicely into mixtures with it, Alsike Clover 
and Perennial Rye-Grass. It is recommended for hay 
only where the land is fertile and moisture abundant. 
One of the best grasses for wet lands and still strongly 
drought resistant on uplands. 


KENTUCKY BLUEGRASS—Poa pratensis—15 to 25 
Lbs. per acre for pasture, 5 Lbs. per 1000 sq. ft. for 
lawns. Best adapted to well-drained lowlands but 
thrives on any fertile soil abundantly supplied with 
moisture. The uniformity and denseness of the sod it 
forms, the beautiful color of its verdure, its palatabil- 
ity to all classes of stock and its increasing productive- 
ness with age make Kentucky Bluegrass the king of 
pasture grasses on fertile soils. It combines particular- 
ly well with Ladino or White Clover and Redtop and 
frequently is so aggressive as to crowd these out en- 
tirely after a few years. It belongs in every good lawn 
mixture and is extensively used on golf courses. It 
was formerly thought to be particularly partial to 
limestone soils but succeeds equally well on fertile soils 
poor in lime. 


SHADYLAND BLUEGRASS—Poa trivialis—15 to 25 
Lbs. per acre for pasture, 5 Lbs. per 1000 sq. ft. for 
lawns. A spreading species with narrow, flat, apple 
green leaves very much like Kentucky Bluegrass, 
though it starts quicker and spreads faster and has 
the ability to grow well in shady places. It is a very 
fine lawn grass, and is very satisfactory for pasture. 
Adapted only to cool, moist soils and disappears en- 
tirely in open sunny places during hot weather. Known 
also as Rough Stalked Meadow Grass and Birdgrass. 


SMOOTH BROMEGRASS—Bromus inermis—18 to 25 
Lbs. per acre. A hardy, smooth, erect, drought-resist- 
ing perennial, usually 2 to 3 feet tall, producing strong 
creeping root-stalks. It furnishes as much green feed 
in the dry regions as any other of the true grasses and 
no cold injury is suffered by it during the most severe 
winters. Not recommended for the Coast region. 


BROMUS MARGINATUS—18 to 25 Lbs. per acre. An 
improved perennial prairie grass that is highly nutri- 
tious. Provides a perfect feed during the period when 
other grasses are scarce. The seed germinates readily 
and care should be exercised not to cover it too deep- 
ly. We recommend it for the semi-arid sections of the 
west. 


CRESTED DOGSTAIL—Cynosurus cristatus—20 to 25 
Lbs. per acre for pasture, 5 Lbs. per 1000 sq. ft. for 
lawns. Adapted primarily to cool, moist regions, where 
it seems to thrive principally in the two extremes, hot 
sun and dense shade. 


CHEWINGS FESCUE—Festuca rubra fallax—20 to 25 
Lbs. per acre for pasture, 8 to 10 Lbs. per 1000 sq. ft. 
for lawns. A small, hardy, low-growing grass, produc- 
ing very fine dark green leaves which rarely exceed 8 
inches in height and in growing have a dense turf- 
forming habit. It is a permanent grass, recovers quick- 
ly after grazing and is quite palatable. Its turf im- 
proves with age. The plant is of hardy constitution and 
thrives on a wide range of soils providing the drain- 
age is good. Suitable for lawns and golf courses where 
its rich green color, continued growth and fine, deep 
turf are highly desirable features. 


MEADOW FESCUE—Festuca elatior pratensis—20 to 
25 Lbs. per acre. A wonderful summer pasture grass, 
makes a dense bottom growth and has a quick recov- 
ery. Grows 2 to 3 feet high and is strongly drought- 
resistant; being deep rooted it prefers deep, well- 
drained soil. Valuable also on low, wet white lands. 


After the frost has killed the native grasses, stock may 
still be pastured on Meadow Fescue, thus reducing by 
several weeks the period of dry-lot feeding. It makes 
a good quality of hay and gives a fair yield, does not 
reach its highest state of productiveness as quickly as 
Timothy but usually persists much longer. 


MESQUITE—Velvet Grass—Holcus lanatus—15 to 20 
Lbs. per acre. Also called Fog Grass, a good meadow 
and pasture grass in dry sandy soil, but of little value 
where other grasses thrive. It is a perennial about 
two feet tall and is soft and velvety, the whole plant is 
covered by a growth of wool-like hairs. 


ORCHARD GRASS—Dactylis glomerata—20 to 25 Lbs. 
per acre. A long-lived perennial, especially suited to 
rather rough lands or well-drained uplands. It makes 
a very good growth in the open and makes a better 
growth under shaded conditions than most other 
grasses, and as a pasture grass produces a large amount 
of forage. It lends itself especially well to use in mix- 
tures and when intended for hay should be mixed with 
Red or Alsike Clover and Tall Meadow Oat-Grass and 
Meadow Fescue. Should be cut for hay at the begin- 
ning of the bloom stage. Makes a good early spring 
and late fall growth. 


CRESTED WHEATGRASS—Agropyron cristatum—10 
to 12 Lbs. per acre, 2 to 5 Lbs. in rows. A semi-bunch 
grass of Russian origin that is strongly drought resist- 
ant and is now the most widely recommended pasture 
grass for the arid districts. It has a well-developed 
root system which penetrates deeply and responds 
quickly to slight rainfall. It is palatable and nutritious 
and stands pasturing well; there is no danger from 
winter killing and the growth it makes is only limited 
by the amount of moisture available. 


REED’S CANARY GRASS—Phalaris arundinacea—6 to 
8 Lbs. per acre. This grass does best in a moist and 
cool climate. It is especially suited to swampy or over- 
flowed lands but seems to thrive well also on some 
types of upland where moisture is abundant. It makes 
a valuable pasture plant, being one of the earliest 
grasses in the spring and grows well into the fall. Both 
fall and spring seedings are successful. The grass 
should not be sown in combination with other grasses, 
but may be sown with small grains. Our seed is 99% 
pure. 


OREGON RYE-GRASS—Lolium multiflorum—20 to 25 
Lbs. per acre. A rather distinctive type common to 
Western Oregon and is grown as a winter annual. It 
is a rapid grower, leaves and stems medium fine, stools 
heavily, and has a rapid comeback after mowing. Suit- 
able as a fall-planted annual hay crop west of the Cas- 
cade Mountains. We have two grades of seed—No. 1, 
better than 99% pure; No. 2, 98% pure. 


ENGLISH RYE-GRASS—Lolium perenne—20 to 25 
Lbs. per acre for hay or pasture, 10 Lbs. per 1000 sq. ft. 
for lawns. A tufted perennial which grows to 2 to 2% 
feet tall and its principal use has been as an ingredient 
in lawn, pasture and hay mixtures. It makes much 
succulent leaf growth close to the ground, has a rich 
green color and recovers quickly when cut or grazed. 
As a pasture crop it makes an early spring growth 
and a particularly good fall growth. The seed we offer 
is genuine European imported stock. 


ENGLISH RYE-GRASS—Washington grown. We im- 
ported some specially selected mother seed from a 
plant breeder in New Zealand and planted it in West- 
ern Washington, where it has done wonderfully well. 
This year we offer a small amount of seed harvested 
from this field. Please specify Washington Grown seed 
when -ordering. 


PACEY’S RYE-GRASS—A short, plump seeded strain 
of the true English or perennial type. Valuable in 
lawns and pastures as a nurse grass and where quick 
results are desired. It produces a verdant growth with- 
in 4 to 5 weeks. 


FARM SEED PRICES 


We are sorry that we cannot show prices on Farm 
Seeds in this catalog. Market values sometimes fluc- 
tuate greatly due to conditions beyond our control. 
We keep our prices in line with market values. 


ITALIAN RYE-GRASS—Lolium multiflorum (Oregon 
grown)—20 to 25 Lbs. per acre. A winter annual that 
reseeds itself, therefore lasts almost indefinitely, and is 
one of our most valuable pasture grasses, as it pro- 
duces green feed late in the season after other grasses 
are past their prime. It makes a rapid growth and will 
furnish more green pasture in midsummer than any 
other grass. 


TALL MEADOW OAT-GRASS—Arrhenatherum ela- 
tius—20 to 25 Lbs. per acre. Of rapid, luxuriant growth 
and matures exactly with orchard grass and red clo- 
ver. It has a slightly bitter taste, but is as closely 
grazed in the pasture as any of the other grasses. 
Stands pasturing well, remains green late in fall, roots 


deeply, thrives on both upland and well-drained bot- 
toms. 


TIMOTHY—Phleum pratense—8 to 10 Lbs. per acre. 
One of the most universally known and cultivated 
grasses, especially adapted to cool, moist soils and, be- 
cause the seed is usually low in price and of high 
germination and purity, it is a general favorite with 
farmers. It produces good yields and is the standard 
grass for hay in all parts of the country. We have 
three grades of seed—Lilly’s BEST Brand 9914% pure; 
EVERGREEN Brand, 98% pure, and a special Pasture 
Grade. 


FARM SEED MIXTURES 


25 to 30 Lbs. per acre. We are prepared to furnish any 
special mixture you desire, using only our best grade 
and purest seed, which will be figured at market 
prices. We feature, however, Lilly’s regular mixtures 
listed below which are made up of good quality seeds 
of high germination which were grown as mixtures 
and therefore expensive to separate or in small lots 
which would require blending. Do not let the low 
prices at which these are offered cause you to discount 
their value. Good mixtures never fail to give fair re- 
turn even under most unfavorable conditions. 


Lilly’s LOWLAND PASTURE MIXTURE —25 to 30 
Lbs. per acre. Especially prepared for wet bottom 
lands. Contains mostly such desirable seeds as Timothy, 
Alsike Clover, Rye-Grass, Red-top and Meadow Fescue. 


Lilly’s UPLAND PASTURE MIXTURE—For benches 
and uplands, especially useful for sowing on logged- 
off land. Contains lots of Red Clover, Meadow Fescue, 
Timothy and Rye Grass, together with Redtop, etc. 


Lilly’s BURN MIXTURE—A cheap mixture of domestic 
grasses for burn-over lands. Seeded burns soon make 
valuable pasture lands and pasturing such lands helps 
keep down undesirable brush and noxious weeds and 
prevents soil erosion. 


Lilly’s HAY MIXTURE—A splendid mixture, produc- 
ing hay of fine quality and maturing evenly; Timothy, 
Alsike Clover, Red Clover, Orchard Grass, Rye-Grass, 
Redtop, Meadow Fescue, etc., are properly proportioned 
so that it gives not only quick results but remains 
permanent for many years if conditions are favorable.

MORCROP FERTILIZERS 


For Lawn and Garden 


Lilly’s Lawn MORCROP 


Made especially for use on lawns to keep them a rich 
green color and in vigorous growth during the entire 
growing period. Applications at frequent intervals not 
only keeps the grass green but thick- 
ens the stand of grass, discourages 
weeds and reduces the amount of 
water required to maintain growth. 
Lawn Morcrop is rich in life - giving 
element Nitrogen, and contains enough 
Phosphates, Potash and the minor ele- 
ments for healthy growth. Lawn Mor- 
crop is made on a humus base which 
builds up the soil, stimulates the ac- 
tivity of beneficial soil bacteria and 
produces a deep resilient turf. Feeds 
readily through mechanical fertilizer 
spreaders. Packed only in 50 Lb. bags. $1.25 each. 
Note: The ideal lawn fertilizing program consists of 
three or more light applications during the year and 
includes the use of Garden Morcrop or Lux Morcrop 
for at least one application during the Fall or Early 
Spring months to build up the mineral reserve of the 
soil necessary for sustained year-round growth. 


Lilly’s Garden MORCROP 

High in analysis, complete in scope, carrying even a 
good supply of humus in the form of peat moss is the 
ideal fertilizer for use around the city 
home where the soil usually is low in 
available plant food of all kinds and 
almost entirely devoid of organic mat- 
ter. Garden Morcrop contains an 
abundance of nitrogen, phosphates 
and potash as well as many impor- 
tant rare elements, properly balanced 
and in available forms, compounded 
to ‘feed your garden crops uniformly 
over a long period of time. Its me- 
chanical condition is such that it is 
easy to use, either by hand or with 
mechanical spreader. 5 Lb. cartons 35c, 10 Lb. car- 
tons 65c, 50 Lb. bags $2.40. 


Lilly’s Lux MORCROP 


This formula has been in use on the Pacific Coast for 
almost 20 years and has become the standard plant 
food in many sections. High enough in nitrogen to 
produce a vigorous growth and prop- 
erly balanced as to phosphates and 
potash to provide the substance to 
carry crops to maturity. Nothing ex- 
cels it for general use on lawns, flow- 
ers, fruits, berries and shade trees. If 
your potatoes have been small, your 
berries inclined to be seedy, and your 
truck or vegetable crops have lacked 
that punch along toward the end of 
the season, which you know is neces- 
sary to get the finest quality, then you 
should begin using Lux Morcrop. It

MORCROP for Farm Use 


Morcrop is the Brand name for the complete fertilizers 
manufactured by the Chas. H. Lilly Company. There 
are offered under this brand a number of different 
formulas in which the content of the three principal 
elements, Nitrogen, Phosphoric Acid and Potash, is 
varied in proportion to the requirements of the crop 
for which they are intended and to balance the con- 
stituents in the soil to which they are applied. 
Some of these formulas are: 3-10-7; 3-10-10; 5-6-8; 
5-10-10; 6-10-4; 3-10-20; 5-5-10; 4-12-4; the figures in- 
dicating in each case Nitrogen, Phosphoric Acid and 
Potash in the order named. All of these are packed 
in red and blue striped mutiwall 
paper bags like the one shown. 
Delivered prices on request. 

SAVE MONEY by getting a soil 
analysis before buying fertilizers. 
This new modern soils analysis is 
proving of inestimable value in 
preventing the wasteful use of 
plant foods that are already avail- 
able in the soil in sufficient quan- 
tities and also preventing the use 
of elements that have an unfavor- 
able chemical reaction.

FORAGE CROPS 


SUDAN GRASS—Andropogon sudanensis—8 Lbs. per 
acre in drills, 25 Lbs. per acre broadcast. Thick seed- 
ing is advisable, otherwise the crop grows too rank 
and coarse. Important in the arid sections of the West, 
where it seems to thrive on lands that are quite alka- 
line. It also endures excessive moisture and withstands 
extreme drought. Useful as summer pasture and yields 
from 2 to 8 tons of hay per acre and is often cut four 
times in a season. Has a short growing season. 


MAMMOTH RUSSIAN SUNFLOWER—Helianthus an- 
nuus—10 to 15 Lbs. per acre. Now planted extensively 
in some sections for silage where corn cannot be de- 
pended upon to make good crops, being grown just 
about the same as corn. 


SOY BEANS—Soja max—35 to 60 Lbs. per acre. Best 
when planted in rows and cultivated. Much the same 
method of culture is used as for raising garden beans. 
The stems are woody and of questionable value for 
roughage, but the seeds are rich in oil and are con- 
sidered a very concentrated food. Grown primarily for 
the seed which is rich in food value and as a silage 
crop. Not especially well suited to the Northwest. 


JAPANESE BUCKWHEAT—Fagopyrum esculentum— 
40 to 50 Lbs. per acre. Grown both for green manuring 
and for a grain crop, frequently planted to smother 
out noxious weeds, because it produces very dense 
foliage. Valuable as bee pasture while in bloom. 


EARLY AMBER CANE—Andropogon sorghum—8 to 
10 Lbs. per acre. The most common variety of forage 
Sorghum grown. Plant late in the spring, the crop re- 
quires warm weather and is drought-resistant. Should 
be planted in rows and cultivated like corn. 


DWARF ESSEX RAPE—Brassica napus—3 to 5 Lbs. 
per acre. An excellent crop for pasture and for cutting 
and feeding green to hogs, sheep, goats and poultry. 
Fed to dairy cows, it causes a large flow of milk. 


JAPANESE MILLET—Echinochloa frumentaceae—25 
to 35 Lbs. per acre. Sometimes called Barnyard Grass 
or Billion Dollar Grass. It grows 6 feet or more high 
and produces immense crops of forage that is especial- 
ly fine for green feeding. Thrives in the moist climate 
and soil of the fog belt of the Coast, not so good in the 
hotter districts. Grows too rank and matures too late 
to make good hay on the Coast. Plant the seed shallow 
on a rather firm seed bed. 


FOXTAIL MILLETS 


Chaetochloa italica—20 to 25 Lbs. per acre. Foxtail 
millets are the best for hay on the Coast, the stems 
are fine and they produce much foliage. Should be 
cut for hay before the seed begins to ripen. 


GOLDEN OR GERMAN MILLET—Medium early, 
growing 4 to 5 feet. Often yields as much as 5 tons of 
good quality hay or 75 bushels of seed per acre. 


SIBERIAN MILLET—A new, hardy variety, making a 
rank growth of forage that is leafy and makes good 
hay. Withstands heat and drought. 


HUNGARIAN MILLET—At least a week earlier to ma- 
ture than Golden and requires less moisture. Grows 
3 feet tall, makes splendid hay. 


NOTE: All millets should be planted late after the 
ground has become warm. 


18 


BROOMCORN MILLETS (Proso) 


Panicum milaceum—25 to 40 Lbs. per acre. Primarily 
adapted to growing for seed which is used for feeding 
most kinds of livestock. The plants are too coarse and 
woody to make good hay. 


EARLY FORTUNE MILLET (Hershey)—A type that 
produces heavy yields of both fodder and seed. Its 
earliness is quite a factor in some sections. 


YELLOW HOG MILLET—There are many kinds of 
broom corn type Millet. We believe this strain to be 
one of the best from a standpoint of either forage or 
seed yield. 


SEED GRAINS 


“SUCCESS” BEARDLESS BARLEY—An exceptional 
strain of the true beardless barley that was perfected 
a number of years ago by the Washington State Col- 
lege. Very heavy producer. It is completely beardless. 


WHITE HULLESS BARLEY (Beardless)—It threshes 
out like wheat and grows beardless. More productive 
and two weeks earlier than wheat, making it a splen- 
did spring sown crop in some sections. 


COMMON BEARDED BARLEY (White)—A six-rowed 
variety of bearded barley. It is sufficiently hardy that 
it can be sown in the fall in sheltered localities of the 
West. 


HANNCHEN BARLEY—A two-row bearded variety 
that is said to be especially fine for brewing purposes. 
Matures medium early and yields well. 


SUPPORT OATS—A new gray seeded, Turf type, or 
winter oats developed by the U. S. Dept. of Agricul- 
ture. It is a tall growing, early variety that yields 
very well indeed and was named “Support” because of 
its stiff straw which fits it especially well for grow- 
ing with vetch, peas or other legumes for which it pro- 
vides excellent support. Can be planted either in the 
fall or spring. 


VICTORY OATS—Excels all others for yield on light 
soils. The straw is stiff and the white kernels fill out 
good and plump; the hull is of medium thickness. 


SWEDISH SELECT OATS—A heavy-strawed, very 
productive variety, adapted to general conditions on 
the Coast. This white, spring oats is very popular in 
all the oat-growing sections. 


Lilly’s BLACK ALASKA OATS—A black seed spring 
oats with heavy straw and much foliage. Good to sow 
with vetch or peas; fine for hay or green feed. 


Lilly’s GRAY WINTER OATS—Especially valuable for 
fall seeding, grows tall, has stiff straw and yields heav- 
ily. Good for seeding with vetch. 


Lilly’s ROSEN RYE—Introduced by the Michigan State 
College from Russia; heavy yielding, large seeded, 
high-quality rye. The best winter variety by far. 


Lilly’s SPRING RYE—This strain was perfected by the 
Washington State College. A good yielder and a valu- 
able addition to our list of grains. This is a true spring 
grain and should be planted early. 


Lilly’s RED RUSSIAN WHEAT—A late maturing va- 
riety of beardless winter wheat, especially adapted to 
planting in the wheat-growing districts along the Coast. 


Lilly’s MARQUIS WHEAT—Extremely early and pro- 
ductive as well as hardy. Straw is stiff, seed is red, 
heads long and free from beards. A spring wheat.

HORMODIN 


“The Root-Forming Chemical’’ 


Hormodin “A” is the new root-inducing chemical that 
stimulates rapid root growth on leafy cuttings, being 
especially valuable for propagating all plants by cut- 
tings, whether rooted with ease or normally rooted 
with difficulty. Many plants formerly impossible to 
propagate from cuttings may now be rooted with the 
aid of Hormodin. 


Hormodin treatment is simple. 
No special equipment is needed. 
Hormodin comes in liquid form 
and is applied as a dilute, water 
solution. The cost is only a frac- 
tion of a cent per cutting. 

Complete directions and cali- 
brated measuring glass make it 
easy to prepare correct solution 
for each variety of cutting. 
Packed in five sizes, and sold on 
the basis of Boyce Thompson In- 
stitute Units of Effectiveness. 

To treat cuttings with Hormodin 
“A,” merely place the basal ends 
of the cuttings in a Hormodin so- 
lution of recommended strength 
for a designated period, usually 24 
hours. The cuttings are then re- 
moved from the solution and 
planted in a propagating bench as in methods nor- 
mally used. Cuttings so treated root quicker and 
have more growing roots per cutting.
