108 FIELD SEEDS— (Continued) 
STATE NURSERY CO. 
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 altogether for hay, and for that purpose southern grown seed is much the 
best. It grows taller than does that from northerr seed, and that means more hay. It is finer than that from 
the northern seed, and that means better hay. In lact, it is our judgment, based on an experience of many 
years that a farmer had better, from the standpoint of profit alone, pay $2.00 a bushel for true southern grown 
German Millet than to sow the best northern Millet as a gift. Millet seed produced in the north, even from 
southern seed, becomes what we call Common Mil let. Not only does the plant change in character, becom- 
ing 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; 2b 
Lbs. $2.00; 100 Lbs $6.00 
Many regard this as being better even than German Millet, as it is about one week earlier and requires less 
moisture. The hay is fine and of excellent feeding value. It is specially valuable on account of its requiring 
such a short season to make a fine crop. It can 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 quite leafy, of very fine quality. 
MILLETT, 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. Extensive experiments 
were conducted at both the South Dakota trial stations which demonstrated the superiority of this new va- 
riety. 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 condi- 
tions 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. 15e; 25 
Lbs. $1.75; 100 Lbs $5.60 
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 stock, and is of special value for this purpose in sections 
where corn cannot be safely 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 ma- 
ture in about two months from sowing the seed. 
MILLET, JAPANESE— (Improperly Called "Billion Dollar Grass.") Lb. (Postpaid) 25c; By Express or Freight at Pur- 
chaser's Expense, Lb. 20c; 25 Lbs. $3.00; 100 Lbs $11.00 
Entirely distinct from all other Millets. It grows from 6 to 9 feet high, stands up remarkably and yields enor- 
mous crops. When cured it makes good hay and in quality is superior to corn fodder. It is relished by all 
kinds of stock. 
FIELD CORN 
CORN— (The New Yellowstone Dent.) Lb. (Postpaid^ 20c; By Express or Freight at Purchaser's Expense, Lb. 15c; 10 
Lbs. 90c; 100 Lbs $5.00 
Special quotations in 1,000 Lb. lots. 
Perhaps the best introduction to this wonderful corn will be to quote from the grower of it. He writes: "My 
field of this corn— 33 acres — is yielding 60 bushels per acre of as fine Yellow Dent Corn as I ever saw in old 
Illinois, my native stale. It is of such size and quality and so early matured that the seed is of great value to 
Montana beyond question. Every man who sees it pronounces it 'Fine'." 
This corn was planted from May 10th to 16th. The crop was out of the way of frost September 1st, except 
about 10 per cent, and that would have stood a good heavy frost, no question about it. I could hardly get 
people who had not seen it to believe that the corn was grown on dry land. The Milwaukee Railway Co. 
have two bushel of it in their advertising car. 
The above statements made by Mr. Gus. L. Mainline of Cartersville, Montana, who grew this very fine lot 
of corn. In addition, we will state the crop of about 1000 bushel of corn is no doubt the first car of seed 
corn ever sold by a Montana farmer or ever purchased by a dealer in the state. This surely brings Montana 
to the front as a factor in the corn growing industry.
