Grass, 8 pounds; White Clover,

Lespedeza, 10 pounds.
The Uallis grass and lespedeza
recommended in this mixture
should not be added to the sod
I this fall. They should always be
■ sown in the spring. They may be
sown on top of the other grasses
and clovers seeded the previous
fall.
To rei w an old pasture, cut
down the weeds and bushes, and
scratch the soil to a depth of 1
or 2 inches. This may be done
with a heavy spike-tkoth harrow
or with a disc set almost straight,
so as not to destroy the old sod.
Then apply fertilizer and sow
seed as recommended.
