HOME-GROWN FIELD AND GARDEN SEEDS 
GRASS SEEDS, continued 
Tall Meadow Fescue. Early, nutritious and 
productive in pastures of wet or clay soil. 
Kentucky Blue Grass. Fancy, clean seed. 14 
lbs. per bus. 
Hungarian Grass. This is a species of annual 
millet, growing less rank, with smaller stalks, often 
yielding two or three tons of hay per acre. It is very 
valuable and popular with those who are clearing 
timber lands. Sow and cultivate like millet. 
German or Golden Millet. An improved large- 
leaf variety, growing 3 to 5 feet high; later-maturing 
than common Mijlet, and a heavy yielder. The 
heads, though numerous, are very large and com- 
pact. Seeds contained in rough, bristly sheaths, are 
round, golden yellow and very attractive. 
Japanese Millet. Sow fifteen pounds to the acre. 
A very distinct variety that is particularly valuable 
in the Northern States as a quick-growing forage and 
ensilage crop, attaining a height, in good soil, of 6 
to 8 feet, and yielding from ten to eighteen tons of 
green fodder per acre. For feeding green it may be 
cut from day to day as needed until the seed begins 
to ripen. During this period it is much relished by 
stock. Cattle, especially, consume it without waste 
before touching green fodder-corn, and cows fed on 
it invariably increase in milk. For dry fodder it 
should be cut in the blossom stage; when sown early 
it produces a fair second cutting. 
Crimson Clover 
CLOVER SEEDS 
All carefully cleaned and selected samples. 
White. Excellent for lawns, as it remains green. 
60 lbs. to the bus. 
Crimson. An annual which flourishes well on 
poor soil. Grows about 2 feet high. Sow during J uly 
or August. Often cuts ten tons of good fodder 
per acre if cut from May 1 to 10. 
Alslke, or Hybrid. Equal in nutritive value 
to the Red Clover and excellent for land that is 
Clover-sick. 
Alfalfa, or Lucerne. A Clover-like perennial, 
well adapted to light soil, producing a heavy crop 
of foliage. Stands cutting three or four times a 
season. Sow 15 to 25 lbs. to the acre, 60 lbs. to the bus. 
FIELD SEEDS 
Cowpeas, Whippoorwill. A very large variety 
of upright or bush growth, ripening early. The crop 
may be harvested any time to plant winter grain in 
the fall, providing seeds can be planted by the 
middle of May. The seed is light brown, speckled 
dark brown, of the same size and coloring as the 
egg of the whippoorwill. Qt. 20 cts., pk. 65 cts., 
bus. $2.25. 
Canada Field Peas. A small-seeded, very hardy 
Pea, which is valuable to sow early in the spring 
in connection with stiff-straw oats. It produces green 
forage and is used for making ensilage. It can also 
be sown later at the rate of three bushels to the acre, 
broadcast, early in the spring, or in midsummer to 
turn under to enrich the land. Plants gather a large 
supply of nitrogen from the air. Write for prices.
