When and how do I start my baby on cereal?

Mommy…LT asked:
When should I start my 4 1/2 month old on baby cereal? He’s now half breastmilk (I pump) fed and half formula fed. What age did you start your baby on cereal? And how do I go about starting him on it. What type or brand should I use? He now has 4 oz of breastmilk (or formula) about every 3 hours during the day, 4 hours at night. He’s gaining weight just fine on what he’s eating now, he’s more than 15 pounds.

Do I start with only the cereal, when do I start giving him the jar baby food?
Thanks for your suggestions and help.
