RED KAFFIR CORN. 
This very leafy and juicy variety is taller but more ue, especially in southern 
slender than the white, ripens a little earlier and yields sections; it has yielded pay- 
heavier. It is also valuable for sowing on poor land, as ing crops of grain and forage 
it will give better results under these conditions than even in seasons so dry that 
the White Kaffir Corn, as well as other Sorghums, most corn utterly failed. The 
of which require a well-enriched soil. (See cut.) 10c. culture is the same as for =

4 | PETER HENDERSON &CO., 
“TI cannot say too much for your 
Jerusalem Corn. I drilled in about 
15 acres after the ground was so dry 
in May that I did not think it would 
sprout, and with not a bit of rain, 
on dry upland, I now have over 15 
tons of fine seed. TI tell you it is the 
erop for dry land and for very late 
planting. It seems to me it should 
be better advertised, so all farmers, 
in dry sections, could know how val- 
uable it is.’’—C. W. GAMMON, Walnut 
ae TEOSINTE. 
(Reana Luxurians.) 
The plant resembles Corn, but is more leafy and tillers enormously. 
After cutting it grows again with remarkable rapidity. Those having 
only a small amount of land on which it is desired to produce the maxi- 
mum amount of forage should sow Teosinte. Plant in drills, 6 to 8 lbs. 
per acre. (See cut.) 80c. 1b.; 10 1bs. and upwards, 70c. 1b. 
A type of non-saccharine 
Sorghum of greatest value 
for both fodder 
and grain. 
Kaffir Corn is a valuable 
forage plant, growing 4% to 
6 feet high; it is stocky, 
erect, and produces wide, 
luxuriant, succulent foliage, 
making excellent fodder, 
either green or dried, and is 
highly relished by all kinds 
of stock. Each stalk pro- 
duces from 2 to 4 heads of 
grain. These heads are long 
has the quality common to all 
Sorghums, of resisting 
droughts, and in this fact is 
to be found its peculiar val- 
Field Corn. KAFFIR CORN.
