RURAL BRANCHING DOURA Sorftun Vtizare 
A wonderfully productive fodder plant that makes a 
great amount of foliage, and can be cut several times in the 
season. Plant 4 to 5 lbs. to the acre. 12c. lb.; 100 lbs., 
$8.00. 
YELLOW BRANCHING DOURA (“iii maize) 
Earher than the Rural Branching, and of taller growth, 
often attaining a height of 9 to 12 feet, but it does not stool 
‘| out quite as much from the ground, although it branches out 
}from the joints. It produces an enormous quantity of 
fodder, for which stock show a marked partiality. Plant 
4 lbs. to the acre. (See cut.) 12c. lb.; 100 Ibs., $8.00. 
JERUSALEM CORN 
Grows about five feet high, and is one of the surest 
“| crops for dry countries and seasons, having in the driest 
season in the past 15 years in Kansas produced a crop, 
without irrigation, when other forage plants perished. Five 
pounds will plant an acre. 12c. lb.; 100 lbs., $8.00. 
“T cannot say too much jor your Jerusalem Corn.~ I drilled in about 
16 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 16 tons of 
fine seed. I tell you wt vs the crop for dry land and for very late planting. It 
seems to me tt should be better advertised, so all farmers, in dry sections, could 
m'| know how valuable it is.”

TEOSINTE 
(Reana Luxurians.) 
The plant resembles Corn, but is more leafy and tillers 
‘lenormously. After cutting it grows again with remarkable 
|rapidity. Those having only a small amount of land: on 
which it is desired to produce the maximum amount of forage 
should sow Teosinte. Plant in drills, 6 to 8 lbs. per acre. 
(See cut.) 70c. lb.; 10 lbs. and upwards, 60c. lb. 
KAFFIR CORN 
A type of nen-saccharine Sorghum of greatest value for both fodder and grain. 
Kaffir Corn is a valuable forage plant, growing 43 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 produces from 2 to 4 heads of grain. 
These heads are long.and narrow. Kaffir Corn has the quality common 
to all Sorghums, of resisting droughts, and in this fact is to be found 
its peculiar value, especially in southern sections; it has yielded paying 
crops of grain and forage even in seasons so dry that corn utterly failed. 
The culture is the same as for Field Corn. 
WHITE KAFFIR CORN 
Grows 4 to 5 feet high, with numerous wide leaves. (See cut.) 
10c. 1b.; 100 lbs., $6.00. 
RED KAFFIR CORN 
This very leafy and juicy variety is taller but more slender than 
the white, ripens a little earlier and yields heavier. It is also valuable 
for sowing on poor land, as it will give better results under these con- 
ditions than the White Kaffir Corn, as well as other Sorghums, most 
of which require a well-enriched soil. (See cut.) 10c. Ib.; 100 lbs., $6.00.
