I SUTTON'S DEVON EAVEE, BYE- ' It fS PERENNIAL and IT WILL N6t RJSN OUT, There is nothing new about Sutton's Devon Eaver— ' It is over 100 years old. ' 1 m ' — As Rye Grass is. the principal grass in all pastures, for, sheep or cattle, it is very important that the greatest caution and care be exercised in securing seed which will proveperennial and will not run out. Experience in* England has, .proved that seed saved by. Suttons,, from their old pastures \in Devonshire, gives not only a grass which will last for' all time, but one which has easily a greater feeding value than all others. Exactly the same applies ..to this Colony/ " The noted pastures in Poyerty Bay and Ha^wke's Bay were : all laid down with'tnis seed more thaii fifty 1 years ago, 'and are as good to-day as they ever were; in fact/ each year they _ improve. Also, there is no doubt whatever tliat the finest^ stands of Rye in Taranaki are those very old pastures whicH* 1 were sown down with this old Devonshire seed in the early days by the Missionaries. It -has held better than all* the v seeds .since sown and gathered in the Colony. Although the, - best colonial rye, even from Mission Stations; 'inuy -die out ' in time, the Devon Eaver, brought here by the Missionaries \ some fifty years ago, though sown in many, different localities,,, remains in the ground to-day; this applies also to the same seed brought out by Devonshire families nearly .forty years ago. Indeed,- although Taranaki Soil is] vefy to accept Colonial and the ordinary imported Rye seed, it has • shown a remarkable liking for Sutton's Devon Eaver. ' This ; - is such a well-known fact amongst the more.: observant Tara- ', i naki farmers that we were pressed on all sides to get supplies - from Suttons of this seed. We have sold out our firs.t two i shipments, and the third, comprising 20 tanks, has just arrived *' ' , per Corinthic. A large quantity of this has been booked for v all parts of Taranalii by our shrewdest ' farmers j who realise ; that a good sowing is as important as a good\burru The i Rye all comes out in' sealed tanks, thus. preserving its .vitality. -" P.S. — Don't confuse Sutton's Devon Eaver Ry§ Grass Seed with other. ,. :,, seed sold as imported English Perennial Rye — there- is as great a*< difference as between sunshine and darkness., ' We guarantee satis- : ; faction, a,nd you have Sutton's name,, which has beeV pre-eminent ' for 101 years, as a further warranty of satisfaction. . z Remember, it is the only PERENNIAL/ RYE.
