CORN FOR FODDER AND ENSILAGE. 



EVERGREEN SWEET FODDER CORN. Fodder grown from the Evergreen 

 Sweet Corn is superior in quality to that of the ordinary field varieties, being 

 richer, sweeter and more digestible. The best plan is to sow in rows 24 to 

 30 inches apart, using one bushel of corn per acre. $1.00 peck; $3.00 bushel. 



SWEET FODDER CORN. Best for cutting and feeding green during the 

 summer months. This is better than any field corn, from the fact that it is 

 so very sweet and nutritious that cattle will eat every part of the stalk and 

 leaves with relish. Drill thickly, in rows three feet apart, using 1>2 bushels 

 of seed per acre. 85 cts. peck; $2.90 bushel. 



SOUTHERN HORSE TOOTH. Grows to a large size, is very leafy and well 

 adapted for ensilage. Large quantities of this corn are sold by feed and other 

 stores which usually result in disappointment to the farmer. There is no corn 

 more difficult to cure or keep properly, and much of it is kiln-dried, while large 

 quantities have been stored in elevators and gone through a sweating process 

 which has destroyed the germ. The stock we offer is carefully selected and 

 sun-dried and of high germination. $2.75 bushel; 10 bushels and upwards, 

 $2.65 bushel. 



IMPROVED EARLY HORSE TOOTH. Being nearly two weeks earlier, this 

 variety is better adapted for fodder and ensilage in th" Northern States than the 

 ordinary Southern Horse Tooth. {See engraving.) $3.00 bushel; 10 bushels and 

 upwards, $2.90 bushel. 



RURAL THOROUGHBRED WHITE FLINT. An early variety, valuable 

 for the Northern States. Owing to its suckering and branching habit, it yields 

 enormously. $2.75 bushel; 10 bushels and upward, $2.65 bushel. 



SUGAR CANE AND BROOM CORN. 



SUGAR CANE, Early Amber. Of great value for cutting green and feeding 

 green during hot weather in summer, when pastures are apt to be burned up. 

 Being a tropical plant, it makes its best growth during just such weather, 

 and cattle, horses and sheep relish it, and it may be fed to them with safety. 

 Sow in drills, 10 to 12 lbs. per acre; broadcast, 20 to 25 lbs. per acre. Should 

 be cut when about 2 feet high, and will yield several such cuttings. Earlier 

 than the Orange and may be grown even in Northern States. Cured in the 

 same way as -a heavy crop of Clover, it makes an excellent quality of hay. 

 (See engraving.) 10 cts. lb.; 100 lbs., $8.00. 



SUGAR CANE, Early Orange. Produces a larger and heavier growth than 

 the Amber but is later. 10 cts. lb.; 100 lbs., $8.00. 



BROOM CORN, Evergreen. Entirely free from all crooked brush, and 

 remains strictly green, consequently always conmiands the highest market 

 mice 10 cts. lb. ; 100 lbs.. $7.00.
