MAY'S NORTHERN GROWN SEEDS, BEST FOR ALL CLIMES. 
DESCRIPTION OF OUR CHOICE KAFFIR CORN. 
Yields heavily even on the poorest soils. This wonderful forage plant has become very popular in all sections of America 
the past three years and is highly recommended by the leading agricultural writers. It is a variety of non-saccharine sor- 
ghum and distinct from all others of this class. It does not stool from the roots, but branches from the top joints, pro- 
ducing two, three and four heads of grain from each stalk. The average height on good land is about 5 feet, but the stalks- 
are very strong and never known to blow down in ordinary wind storms. It has the valuable quality of resisting drouth,, 
and if the growth is checked for want of moisture, the plant waits for rain and then at once resumes its progress with- 
out any apparent detriment to its condition; indeed, reports show that it has never failed to produce a good crop in the 
most disastrous seasons. The whole stalk, as well as the blades, cures into excellent fodder, and in all stages of its- 
growth is available for green feed. All kinds of cattle are fond of it. Kaffir Corn may be planted very early in the spring, 
and should be sown in rows about 3 feet apart, using about three or four pounds per acre. It can be grown as far north as- 
Minnesota, and is therefore desirable for cultivation in all parts of this country. Pitt. (2 ozi.) 10c, lb. 25c, 3 lbs. 70c, postpaid*: 
Jerusalem Corn. jk23Sff 1 ro " 
marvelous variety introduced into this, 
country from the arid plains of Palestine 
by a missionary who gave two grains to a. 
farmer in the southwest several years ago. 
These two grains made five heads the first 
year, and the season following he got five: 
bushels, from which he planted eight acres,, 
and gathered a crop of over 200 bushels. 
It is pronounced one of the very best and 
most certain grain crops for dry sections,, 
and in the Southwest claimed to be super- 
ior to the famous Kaffir Corn, which im 
having such immense sales at the present 
time. It attains a height of 3 feet, and 
makes a large head of one main stalk 
and several smaller heads on the side. In 
good seasons often as high as 8 or 9 heads; 
will be seen on one stalk. The grains ar& 
pure white and almost flat. Sow 3 or 4=
