MILLETS 
MILLET, GERMAN— (Tennessee Grown Seed.) Lb. (Postpaid), 20c; by Express or Freight at Purchaser's Expense, 
Lb., 15c; 25 Lbs., $2.00; 100 Lbs - $6.00 
In the north Millet is sown almost ,aIlogelher for hay. and for that purpose southern grown seed is much the best. 
It grows taller than does that from norlhern seed; and that means more hay. It is finer than that from the north- 
«rn seed, and that moans belter hay. In fact, it is our judgment based on an experience of many years that a 
farmer had bettor, from the standpoint of profit alone, pay $2.00 a bushel for true southern grown German Millet 
than to sow the best norlhern Milkl as a gift. Millet seed produced in (he north, even from southern seed, be- 
comes what we call Common Millet. Not only does the plant change in character, becoming coarser ,and much 
more dwarf, but the seed itself shows a change and is readily distinguished by those experienced in handling it. 
MILLET, HUNGARIAN— (Dark Seed.) Lb. (Postpaid), 20c; by Express or Freight at Purchaser's Expense, Lb., 15c; 25 Lbs., 
$2.00; too Lbs Write for Price 
Many regard this as being better even than Gfrman Millet, as it is about one week earlier and requires l«ss mois- 
ture. The hay is fine and of excellent feeding value. It is specially valuable on account of its requiring such a 
short seiason to make a fine crop. It cian be sown as late as the 4th of July with good results in ordinary seasons. 
Hungarian Millet does not grow so coarse as some other varieties, but still yields quite heavily from two to four 
tons of hay to the acre being an ordinary crop. Hay is Iftafy, of voiy fine quality. 
MILLET, SIBERIAN OR KURSK MILLET. (Lb. (Postpaid), 20c; by Express or Freight at Purchaser's Expense, Lb., 
15c; 25 Lbs., $1.75; 100 Lbs $5.75 
This variety was first introduced into the United States from Kursk, Russia, in 1898. Extens.ve experiments wen- 
conducted at both the South Dakota trial stations which demonstrated the superiority of this m w variety. As 
both a hay and seed producer it ranks very high. In dry seasons the weight and quality of the hay have been far 
ahead of German or Hungarian Millet. In favorable years the difference has not been so great, but the results 
have always been in favor of Kursk Millet. In a moist soil and under favorable conditions the German Millet 
usually gives a little larger yield. We have a fine supply of excellent quality. 
MILLET. HOG OR BROOM CORN. Lb. (Postpaid), 20c; by Express or Freight at Purchaser's Expense, Lb., 15c; 25 
Lbs., $1.75; 100 Lbs $5.75 
This is grown for the same purpose for which other Millets are sown, but makes inferior hay unless cut very young. 
It, however, yields enormously of seed, even 60 to 70 bushels to the acre, and this seed is very advantageously 
used for fattening swine and other slock, and is of special value for this purpose in sections where corn cannot 
be siafeiy or cheaply grown. Seed also makes very fine feed for poultry or young chicks. It is very similar to the 
Early Fortune Millet except that the seed is yellowish-white in color. It will mature in about two months from 
sowing the seed. 
MILLET, JAPANESE— (Improperly Called "Billion Dollar Grass.") Lb. (Postpaid), 25c; by Express or Freight at 
Purchaser's Expense, Lb., 20c; 25 Lbs., $2.35; 100 Lbs $8.00 
Entirely distinct from all other Millets. It grows from 6 to 9 feel high, stands up remarkably and yields enormous 
crops. When cured it makes good hay and in quality is superior to corn fodder. It is relished by all kinds of 
stock. 
SORGHUM OR SUGAR CANE 
SORGHUM— (Minnesota.)— (Early Amber Cane.) Lb. (Postpaid), 25c; by Express or 
Freight at Purchaser's expense, Lb., i5c; 10 Lbs., $1.25; 100 Lbs $8.50 
This is the earliest, richest and altogether the best sort for northern lati- 
tudes, and is the only variety which can be relied upon for sugar or syrup. It 
produces a rich, clear syrup for which Minnesota has become famous, the 
usual yield being from 150 to 260 gallons an acre. The yield of seed is also 
large, amounting to 20 to 25 bushels an acre. As a fodder plant we believe 
this excels the Southern Cane, as it is sweeter, contains more nutriment and 
is more relished by stock. 
CORN— (KalTip Corn, VVhite Seeded.) Lb. (Postpaid), 20c; by Express or Freight at 
Purchaser's Expense, Lb., 10c; 10 Lbs., 75c; 100 Lbs $4.50 
An excellent fodder plant, yielding two crops of fodder during tiie season. 
It grows 4 to 5 feet high, making a straight upright growth. The stem or 
stalk bears numerous wide leaves. The stalks are brittle and .juicy, noL hard- 
ening like other varieties of Sorghum. It makes excellent fodder, either green 
or dry, which is highly relished by caltle and all kinds of stock. . The seed 
crop is also heiavy, sometimes 50 to 60 bushels to the acre. For grain, sow in 
rows 3 feet apart, 3 to 5 pounds of seed to the acre. For fodder, sow % 
to 1 bushel, either broadcast or in drills.
