At the present time, the new Japanese buckwheat 

 is by all odds further in advance than all other 

 kinds. This is the third senson that it has been be- 

 fore the public; and the reports to the agricultural 

 press and bee-journals place it far ahead of the stl- 

 verhull, gray, or common. The grain is larger in 

 size, and it gives a very much larger yield of grain. 

 It is fully equal in quality of flour to any of our old 

 kinds, and very much ahead of them in quantity. 

 The reports for honey are somewhat conflicting, but 

 I believe it yields fully as much honey as any other 

 buckwheat known. The price of the Japanese is as 

 follows: Per bushel, $2O0; 'i bush , $1.25; per peck, 

 75c; 1 lb., 10c. If wanted by mail, add !>c for postage. 



In lots of 5 bushels or more, SI-T5 per bush. Our 

 seed is going rapidly. Would advise you to order 

 early before we are sold out. See reports in anoth- 

 er part of this issue.
