JAPANESE MILLET or "Billion 
Dollar Grass," as it is sometimes 
called, is of recent introduction, and 
great claims are made for it as to 
productiveness and value as a forage 
plant. Prof. Brooks, of the Massa- 
chusetts Experiment Station, is 
quoted as saying: "At our station it 
produces 60 bushels of seed, 11,297 
pounds of straw, 36,000 pounds of 
green fodder, 12,000 pounds of hay 
per acre, being superior to good corn fodder in feed- 
ing for milk, and in combination with the soja bean 
makes a very superior ensilage." Recommended 
highly for feeding dairy cattle, young stock and 
sheep, being very rich in nutritious elements. If 
sown in the latter part of April will be ready to cut 
for hay by the middle of July. Attains a height 
from 5 to 7 H feet according to season. 
In drills plant 10 to 12 pounds per acre, broad- 
cast 15 pounds per acre Lb. 10c

t MANITOBA OR HOG 
' MILLET. The seed is very 
I rich and thus especially valu- 
i able as a hog food. A very 
f j much prized peculiarity of 
fSr 1 this millet is that the seed 
. r is -while the stem is yet 
green, thus if cut promptly 
piSSs? can k e threshed for the seed, 
W' while the hay, after being 
$ft> . threshed, will make excellent 
fodder. Sow same as other 
millet Lb. 10c 
PEARL MILLET OR PEN- 
CILLARIA. Immensely pro- 
ductive, 25 tons per acre. A 
native of Central America. It is an 
annual plant having long, broad 
foliage, and if allowed to develop 
fully will attain a height of from 10 
to 12 feet, and bear numerous heads 
from 19 to 20 inches in length and 
1 inch in diameter, completely 
covered with thousands of seeds, 
much relished by poultry. It is of 
rapid growth, throwing out from 
one plant numerous suckers, and if 
cut as soon as it reaches the height 
of 2 or 3 feet, it can be mowed from 
4 to 6 times, according to the lati- 
tude, and yields several tons of hay 
to the acre. If allowed to grow 6 
or 7 feet high, and cut when the 
flower heads begin to develop, it will 
yield the heaviest fodder crop per 
acre of any plant now in civilization. 
For feeding it is equal to any fodder, 
and is relished either green or dry, by all kinds of 
stock Lb. 30c 
SIBERIAN OR RUSSIAN MILLET. It is 
claimed to be the most wonderfully productive and 
satisfactory forage plant, possessing in a superior 
degree all of the essential merits of any of the older 
sorts- — exceeding them by far — besides many other 
points of excellence that distinguishes it and render 
it a most valuable addition to the list of forages. 
If the claims are well founded it is destined to take 
front rank, if not to lead all the rest Lb. 10c
