SORGHUM 



EARLY AMBER CANE — The earliest and best for the north- 

 ern states, and the only kind that can be depended upon 

 for syrup or sugar in this latitude. It is also better for 

 fodder than any other, being sweeter and contains more 

 nutriment than southern varieties. The seed should not 

 be sown until the ground is warm, so as to insure good 

 germination. If sown broadcast for fodder, from 50 to 

 60 lbs. of seed should be used to the acre. Half the 

 quantity is sufficient when wanted for syrup. When 

 sown in single, continuous rows so as to cultivate one 

 way, 12 to 15 lbs. is enough.
