The Mummy. Woe have much pleasure in recom- 
mending this Pea for soiling or fodder, either in 
mixture with oats or grown by itself. It is quite 
distinct, having very strong stocky vines bearing 
its blossoms on the top in cockscomb fashion. This 
variety will entirely supersede the ordinary Canada

$2.00.

MISCELLANEOUS FARM SEEDS._&£> 
SAND, OR WINTER VETCH (Vicia VILLosA). 
Though it succeeds and produces good crops on poor, sandy soils, it is much more vigorous on good land and grows to a height 
It is perfectly hardy throughout the United States, remaining green all winter, and should be sown during August 
and September, mixed with Rye, which serves as a support for the plants, or in spring with Oats or Barley. 
It is the earliest crop for cutting, being nearly a month earlier than Scarlet Clover, and a full crop can be taken Off the land in 
time for planting spring crops. 
where Scarlet Clover winter-kills, though it is equally valuable in the South. Every dairyman and stock-breeder in the United 
States should have a field of it, and if you try it once you will never be @ season without it. 
Being much hardier than Scarlet Clover, this is the forage plant to sow in the Northern States 
It is exceedingly nutritious, much more so than Clover, is eaten with relish, and may be fed with safety to al 
kinds of stock. 
Sow one bushel per acre with one-half bushel of Rye 
or Wheat. 15c. 1b., $5.00 bushel of 60 lbs., 100 lbs., 
$7.50. If by mail, add 8c. per lb.

LATHYRUS 
SYLVESTRIS ° Flat Pea. 
Will grow and thrive in poor sandy soils and drought- 
stricken districts, and the hay is exceedingly nutritious, 
rich enough to fatten either hogs or sheep without the 
addition of grain. Being thoroughly permanent, when 
once established, it will last indefinitely and yield 
enormous crops of hay annually.

Dwarf Essex Rape. 
Under favorable conditions Rape is ready for pastur- 
ing sheep or cattle within six weeks from time of sow- 
ing, and on an average one acre will carry twelve to 
fifteen sheep six weeks to two months. When on the 
Rape they should at all times have access to salt; but 
waterisnotnecessary. In the Northern States it should 
be sown from May to end of August for fall pasturing, 
| but asit thrives best in cool weather, it should not be 
sown in the Soutbern States until September or October . 
for winter pasture. Inthe latitude of New York,July ss. ss 
or Augustis the best time to sow. Its fattening prop- “Me ir 
erties are probably twice as good as those of Clover, 
and for sheep the feeding value of Rape excels all other 
plants we know of. Sow 6 lbs. per acre broadcast, 2 to 
3 lbs. per acre in drills. 12c. lb., $5.00 bushel of 50 lbs., 
100 lbs. $9.00. If by mail, add 8c. Ib.
