kes Splendid Fall, Winter and Spring Pasturage — 

 Fine for Cattle, Sheep and Hogs 



Rape for fall sowing should be put in in July, 

 August or September. It makes a large-yielding, nu- 

 tritious, succulent green feed or pasturage all through 

 the fall, winter and early spring. The fattening prop- 

 erties of Rape are said to be very much better than 

 those of clover, and it makes a first-class crop either 

 for sowing alone or for grazing during the fall and 

 winter; can be sown with Crimson Clover. Rape can 

 be successfully sown both in the fall and spring. Early 

 fall seeding, however, gives the best results. Rape is 

 best sown in drills at the rate of 3 to 5 pounds per 

 acre, or it can be sown broadcast, when from 6 to S 

 pounds per acre should be used. 1 Lb. 16c (Postpaid

Hairy Vetch (Vicia Villosa) 



PURE SEED VERY SCARCE 



Vicia Villosa succeeds and produces good crops on poor 

 sandy soils as on good land; grows to a height of 4 to 5 feet. It is 

 perfectly hardy throughout the United States, remaining green all 

 winter; should be sown liberally from July to November, with 

 winter rye. oats, wheat or barley, which serves as a support for the 

 plants. It is the earliest crop for cutting, being hardier and nearly 

 a month earlier than Crimson Clover, and a full crop can be taken 



off the land in time for planting spring crops. Every Dairyman and 

 Slock Breeder in the United States should have a field of it. and if 

 you try it once and see its value you will never be a season without 

 it. It is exceedingly nutritious, eaten with relish and may be fed 

 with safety to all kinds of stock. Crop short. 1 Lb. 30c. 10 Lbs.
