TEOSIIVTE. 



Teosinte is a valuable forage plant, resembling corn very much in its 

 habit of growth, but throwing out side-shoots or suckers in much 

 greater profusion. It is very rich in saccharine and altogether furnishes 

 a more desirable fodder than ordinary field corn. It is greedily eaten 

 by all kinds of stock, either in the green state or when cured as hay. 

 Sow at the same time as corn, in hills; just as close as they can be 

 conveniently worked. It should not be planted until the ground is 

 warm; 80 degs. to 85 degs. is the most favorable temperature for its 

 germinatien. Pkt. 5c; oz. 15c; % lb. 30c; 1 lb. 90c; by mail, 2 lbs

MILLETS. 



EARLY AMBER SUGAR CANE. 



(Subjeet 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 splendid silage may be made by mixing 

 two parts Japanese Millet with. Sand Vetch or Soy Beans, 

 forming 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. 

 (36 lbs. to the bushel.) Per lb. 10c (by mail 1 lb. 20c); 



15 lbs. $1.00; 100 lbs $5.00

 broad. Sow 1 bushel to the acre. (50 lbs. to the bushel.) 

 Per lb. 5c (by mail 1 lb. 15c); per bus. $1.50; per 100 lbs. .$3.00 

 German or Golden Millet — Matures about two weeks later 

 than Common Millet. The Seed we offer is Southern 

 grown, and so much better is it than Northern grown 

 that more than double the quantity of fodder is produced 

 on the same ground. It grows from 4 to 5 feet high. Sow 

 1 bushel to the acre. (50 lbs. to the bushel.) Per lb. 5c

EVERGREEN BROOM CORN. 

 SUGAR CANE. 

 Sorghum. 

 Wisconsin Early 

 Amber — The most 

 widely used in the 

 Northern States. Its 

 distinctive features 

 are earliness and 

 great yield of syrup. 

 Sow when the ground 

 is warm so as to in- 

 sure good germina- 

 tion. If wanted for 

 fodder sow from 50 

 to 100 lbs. of Seed 

 broadcast to the acre. 

 For syrup 25 lbs. i3 

 sufficient. If drilled in 

 continuous rows so as to 

 cultivate one way 12 to
