Choice Seed of the

It does not pay to devote valuable land to the 

 production of any plant simply for the honey it 

 may produce. In providing: forage for the bees, 

 other than what tliej' naturally find, choice should 

 be made of those plants that produce honey and yet 

 are a paying crop aside from the honey. One of 

 these plants wliicli generally produces honey, and 

 at a time when other bee-pastui'age is usu;dly .scarce, 

 is buckwheat. The best variety of this that we are 

 acquainted with is the Japanese, which has been 

 before the public for five or six years. With favor- 

 able conditions and good soil this will easily pro- 

 duce 50 bushels per acre, and it matures within a 

 few weeks from the time it is sown. It rarely 

 brings less tlian 5(lc a busliel lor flouring, and often 

 a much higher pi'ice. The price the past year has 

 ranged much higher than usual, being from 70c to 

 $1.00 a bushel. 



The time for seeding is at hand, and we are pro- 

 vided with a good stock of clioice .'^eed which we 

 offer, while it lasts, at the following prices: 1-lb. 5c; 

 1 peck, 4(ic; }i bush., 70c; 1 bush., $1.30; 3 bush., 

 «2.20; 10 bush., $10.00; bags included. By mail, 8c 

 per pound extra for postage.
