MILLETS. 
(Subject to Market Fluctuations.) 
Japanese Millet (Panicum crus-galli)—Is entirely distinct from any other. It yields an enormous 
crop of forage, which is greatly relished by stock. When cured it makes excellent Hay. A splen- 
did silage may be made by mixing two parts Japanese Millet with Sand Vetch or Soy Beans, form- 
ing a complete balanced ration for milch cows. Sow the Seed broadcast at the rate of 30 lbs. to 
the acre, or in drills 12 to 18 inches apart, using 15 to 20 lbs. per acre. This variety has been 
sold under the name of Billion Dollar Grass. (36 lbs. to the bushel.) Per lb. 10c (by mail, 1 lb. 
20c); bushel (36 lbs.) $1.75; 100 lbs. $4.50.

bushel to the acre. (50 lbs. to the bushel.) Per lb. 5c (by mail, 1 1b, 15c); per bushel $2.00; per

the acre for forage. If for seed use two quarts more. 
Ito San (Farly Yellow)—Dwarf growing, early, yielding a large quantity of seed. Quart 20c (by mail 35c); peck, $1.10;

Black Beauty—Not so early as Ito San, but a heavier yielder and better for forage. Plants stocky, of medium height. Quart 
0c (by mail 35c); peck $1.00; bushel $3.50. 
COW PEAS. 
Highly valued in the South as a forage crop; in fact, it is to the South what clover is to the North. Its feeding qualities 
are very high. As a soil renovator and fertilizer it is quite equal to clover. The dry peas ground make a rich feed for cattle. 
Sow either broadcast or in drills—covering the Seed from 2 to 3 inches—after 
the ground is warm, as the Peas rot very readily in cold, wet soil. When sown 
broadcast use from 1 to 2 bushels Seed to the acre. If in drills, half the quantity 
is enough. 
Michigan Favorite—Northern grown. Quart 20c (by mail 35c); peck $1.00; 
bushel $3.75.

LUPINE. 
Besides being an excellent forage plant, much relished by cattle, the Lupine 
is valuable for enriching poor, sandy soil. We offer only the yellow variety, 
1p which is by far the best. Sow 90 lbs. to the acre. Per lb.,-by mail, 20c; 10 lbs.

LENTILS. 
Largely used for soups. The leaf stalks make good fodder. They grow best 
in dry, sandy soil. Per lb., by mail, 20c; 100 Ibs. $8.00. 
FIELD PEAS FOR FEEDING. 
Canadian Field Peas can be very profitably sown along with oats and either 
eaten off the field by cattle or hogs, or allowed to ripen, when they can be readily 
separated by any farm seed mill. In this way two crops can be grown at the 
one cultivation. 
Sow broadcast, if alone, 3 bushels of Peas per acre, or in combination 1% 
bushels of Peas to 1% busheis of Oats, mixed, to the acre.
