PERENNIAL RYE GRASS 
(25 to 30 Lbs. per Acre.) 
"Feerleas" Qraae — A strong growing, hardy perennial grass, valu- 
able both for grazing and hay. Also mal<es a fine lawn and 
does not require the close care that Blue Grass does as It will 
flourish better under trees or in shady locations,

SUDAN GRASS 
One of the Most Be:narlrable Porage Crops Grown 
STJSAir QBASS — (Montana Qrown). 
8T7DAIT OBASS — The original form of the cultivated Sorghum. 
It was brought to the United States by the U. S. Department 
of Agriculture in 1909. It is a tall annual grass, and ranges 
In height, from 4 to S feet. The stems are small and somewhat 
more leafy than Johnson Grass, which it most nearly resembles. 
Like the Sorghum crop, it must be planted each spring and 
dies when the first frost comes. It usualy matures 90 days 
from planting. Its feeding value marlts it easily as one of the 
dependable crops for the farm. 
HOW TO PiANT. 
Use 3 lbs. per acre if In cultivated rows; 5 lbs. per acre In 
drills, and 16 to 24 lbs per acre broadcast. It should not be 
planted until all danger of frost is past and the ground thor- 
ougiily warm, as the young plant is tender. 
KABVESTIira. 
The crop should be cut as soon as the grass is fully headed and 
early cutting Is advised where the crop is to be used for hay. If 
grown for seed It should be cut when the seed Is ripe and fully 
matured. It may be harvested with a mower or grain binder. 
If planted in drills it can be readily harvested with a corn bind- 
er. When sown for seed It is best to bind it as 11 Is much easier 
to handle In threshing.

WHITE 
WONDER 
MILLET 
A Russian soldier, serving in the Russo- 
Japanesp wqr discovered this wonderful 
millet in China. He put a little of the seed 
in his knap-saol? and when the war was 
over he came to the Unitcl States bring- 
ing his precious packet with him. 
The most striking feature of White Won- 
der Millet is the size of the heads. This 
illustration shows one-half size of one of 
the hearts and many will be even larger 
The hearts will run from eight up to 
eighteen inches and a single head will have 
as many as 15,000 seeds. 
The yield of White Wonder Millet is ex- 
tremely heavy, being fullv half again as 
heavy as thit of Golden Millet. Some 
growers of White Wonder Millet claim that 
it will outyleld other millets three to one. 
Another very desirable feature of White 
Wonder Millet Is its earliness. This va- 
riety is much earlier than Golden Millet but not quite as earlv 
as the Siberian variety. 
The foliage is very heavy, the leaves broad, and therefore It 
produces an immense amount of excellent fodder which cures 
verv readily. 
We believe that on account of the earliness, the Immense yield 
of both grain and fodder, and the verv vigorous growth which 
leave the ground clem. White Wonder Millet will soon take first 
place among the millets. 
GOIiDEIT — Tennes'!iee Grown Seed — 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 
northern seed, and that means more hay. It is finer than that 
from the northern seed, and that means better hay. In fact, it 
Is our .iudgment 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 GoHen 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 Millet, Not only does the plant change In character, 
becoming coarser and much more dwarf, but the seed Itself 
shows a chane-e and Is readily distinguished by those experi- 
enced '" handling It. 
SIBBBIAIT OB KUBSK MIIiIiET — This variety was first intro- 
rtuceil Into the United States from Kursk, Russia, In 1898, Ex- 
tensive experiments were conducted at both the South Dakota 
trial stations which demonstrated the superiority of this new 
variety. As both a hay and seed producer it ranks very high. 
In dry seasons the weight and quality of the hay has been 
far ahead of Golden or Hungarian Millet. In favorable years 
the difference has not been so great but the results have al- 
ways been in favor of the Kursk Millet. We have a fine supply 
of excellent qualltv. 
HOG OB rBOOM COBN — This Is grown for the same purpose for 
which other Millets are sown, but makes Inferior hay unless 
cut very young. It yields enormously of seed, even 60 to 70 
bushels to the acre, and this seed is very advantageously used 
for fattening swjne and other stock, and Is of special value for 
this purpose in sections where corn cannot be safely or cheaply 
grown. Seed also mak^s very fine feed for poultry or young 
chicks. It Is very similar to the Karly Fortune Millet except 
that the seed Is yellowish white In color. It will mature in 
about two months from sowlnc the seed. 
JAFAMTSB — Improperly called "Billion Dollar Grass" — Entirely 
distinct from all other Millets. It grows from 6 to 9 feet 
high, stands up remarkably and yields enormous crops. When 
cured It makes good hay and in quality Is superior to corn fod- 
der. It Is relished by all kinds of stock. Sow 10 lbs. In drills; 
lis lbs. broadcast to the acre.
