 is productive and an excellent milling wheat. A remarkaljle 

 feature is its enormous stooling propensity; single plants often 

 contain as many as 20 to 25 stalks, each with large head, well 

 filled with plump grains and yielding a large crop of high-grade 

 whe:it. The straw is strong and stiff, holds up well and 

 grows about five feet tall. Because of its heavy growth the 

 plants of Miracle Wheat should be allowed more room to grow 

 than otlier varieties, and seed should l>e planted in smaller 

 quantity, using only 1 to 1} bushels to an acre. Those who 

 have planted Miracle Wheat have been astonished and well 

 pleased with results. Write for price.

WINTER, OR HAIRY VETCH, 



(Vicia Vlllosa. J 



The Winter, or Hairy Vetch, is growing in favor as a winter 

 cover crop, for which purpose it is well adapted, as it will stand 

 more cold than any other winter legume. It is also valuable 

 for spring ])asturage and hay, and when turned under it makes 

 the best green-manure crop that can be grown. It thrives in 

 almost any soil, and the land will be greatly benefited even 

 when the crop has been grown for hay. '1 he seed may be sown 

 any time from the middle of August until about October 1st, 

 either broadcast or drilled, using seed at the rate < f one bushel 

 (60 lbs.) to the acre, and where the crop is to be grown for 

 hay, add one bushel of either Rye, Oats or Wheat to the acre, 

 to help in keeping the vines off the ground, otherwise there will 

 be difficulty in mowing the crop. It is important to use the 

 genuine Winter Vetch (Vicia villosa), for fall sowirg, as other 

 varieties will not stand cold weather. W^e make a specialty of 

 this seed, and will be pleased to quote price for any quantity 

 desired. Leaflet on Vetch free.
