Bonanza King 
OATS. 
A Very Prolific 
and Distinct 
Variety. 
The 
Bonanza 
King. 
Has been care- 
fully selected 
and improved 
for several 
years until it 
now stands at 
the head as one of 
the best white va- 
rieties in cultiva- 
tion for yield and 
quality. The straw 
is stiff, heads long, 
stools freely, and 
the grain is as 
heavy as any in ex- 
istence. It has given 
universal satisfaction 
wherever grown, and 
you will make no mis- 
take in giving it a trial,

Golden Cluster Oats. 
The original seed of this 
sort was obtained direct 
from Scotland. It proves 
to be very hardy and a 
vigorous grower. In height 
it averages about the same 
as our famous Scottish 
Chief. The straw Is very 
stiff, and is never known 
to lodge. It has a record 
of yielding 105 bushels to 
the acre, when other va- 
rieties in the .same field 
yielded only .50 to 60 
bushels, tb. 20c., post- 
paid; pk. 35c., bu. $1.25. 
Lincoln Oats. „ e 'w 
oat has done remarkably 
well in all sections. It is 
very early and thus far 
proved to be rust proof. 
It has given wonderful re- 
sults as a yielder; in one 
instance 170 bushels were 
grown from one bushel of seed. 
Straw is stiff and strong. Grain 
is handsome and is valuable for 
feeding as well as grinding for 
oatmeal on account of its thin 
hull and heavy moat. lib. 20c., 
postpaid; pk. 35c., bu. $1.15. 
New Oat, University 
Mn (y Minnesota State E.^- 
x\u. o. periment Station has for 
some years been breeding new va- 
rieties of oats, and the variety 
here offered as University No. 6 
is its Becord Breaker for yield. 
Side by side with other leading 
.sorts in the tests made under the 
direction of the Agriculturist at the Minnesota State Farm it 
has proven the most productive variety grown there. It is a 
wliito oat. very early. \ery heavy, a great yielder. lib. 20c., 
postpaid; pk. 35c., bn. $1.25. 
■Rlarlr Tartarian Oatc These oats are the result of an 
rsiaCK lairarian »jatS. importation of seed from England 
several years ago, where black oats are much preferred and 
about three times as many are grown as of white oats. They 
are fully as good as the white sort for feeding, and are very 
early. The straw is very stiff, the heads are long, and yield 
heavy crops of grain, 'weighing 35 to 45 pounds to the measured 
bushel. Claimed by many to be almost drongrht proof. ]Lb. 20c., 
postpaid; pk. 50c., bu. $1.50. 
See inside cover for description of SCOTTISH CHIEF OATS, the best 
of all oats. A measured bushel weighs from 40 to 45 pounds. 
German or Golden Millet, southern 
grown. This is a medium early millet, 
growing' from 3 to 5 feet In height, and in 
g'ood seasons has been known to produce 
over 5 tons of hay to the acre, and from 70 
to 80 bushels of seed. It will grow in al- 
most any soil or climate. lib. 20o., post- 
paid; pk. 50c., bn. $1.50, 10 bu. $12.50. 
Hungarian Millet. ?iJfa"n •^^•^l^s.""?n 
general favor for summer forage purposes, 
as it can be sown in June as a second crop, 
and will be ready to cut in 60 days. It 
will yield 2 or 3 tons of hay per acre. lib. 
2Sc., postpaid; pk. 50c., bu. $1.50, 10 bn.

Siberian or Russian Millet, tn^'a 
wonderfully productive forage plant from 
Russia, which has given excellent results 
in the United States. Is earlier than Ger- 
man, extremely hardy and will stand more 
hot, dry weather than any variety of millet. 
It makes a very rank growth, with an 
abundance of leaves, which start from the 
ground. Sow in April, May or June at the 
rate of '4 to % bushel per acre, according 
to soil. We want to call particular atten- 
tion to the fact that our seed is Northern 
Qrowa, and consequently hardier and 
stronger in growth tlian that secured from 
lower latitudes. lib. 25c., postpaid; bn. 
$1.40, 10 bn. $12.50. 
Early Fortune Millet. itinTnU^'s^o'S: 
of which astonishing yields are reported. 
It is very early, and claimed to be rust- 
proof, and that chinch bugs will not eat the 
plant. lib. 25c., postpaid; pk. 40c., bu. $1.25. 
Japanese Barnyard Millet "roven 
an enormous yielder in all sections of the 
U. S., producing hay and fodder of most ex- 
cellent quality and growing on any soil, 10 
to 12 lbs. per acre broadcast being sufficient. 
In drills 8 lbs. per acre.. lib. 35c., postpaid; 
50 lbs. $2.75, 100 lbs. $5.00. 
Hncr Minot Known also as Broom Corn Millet. Quite unlike 
nug iviiiici. the German and common millet in habit of 
growth, as well as the appearance of the seed, which is much 
larger. The name. Hog Millet, has been applied to emphasize the 
u.se to which it is now being put as an economical and valuable 
food for hogs, while it is also one of the best varieties for use 
for birds and all like commercial purposes for whicli millet is 
sown. It is a valuable help in the profitable raising of swine, 
even in the best corn belts, and of much greater value in all 
northern localities where corn is not so important a crop. Xitt.

Bape, Dwarf Essex. 
RAPE. 
One acre of well grown Bape will furnish pasture for 10 to 20 
head of sheep for two months, and in that time will fatten them 
in good form for the market. 
Tlif» Dwarf TT'cc«>v forasre plant for the sheep 
± lie uwdri rubbCX. growers of America. It is highly rec- 
ommended by Professor Shaw, of the Minnesota Experimental 
Station, and many other leading authorities on stock feeding. It 
lias yielded 10 tons of green forage per acre, and lias twice the 
feeding value of green clover. Sheep, swine, cattle and poultry 
eat It readily, but it is particularly desirable for sheep on ac- 
count of its fattening qualities. Rape will do well on almost 
any soil, but gives best results on corn land. lb. 25c., postpaid; 
10 lbs. 75c., 50 lbs. $3.65, 100 lbs. $7.00. 
'rt....i.-F \Ti^4-r^^i^ A standard sort of German origin. In our 
UWan Victoria, tests we find that Dwarf Essex will sur- 
pass it in its vigor of growth and hardiness. Jm\>. 25c., postpaid;
