CHINESE SUGAR CANE, OR SORGHO 
Sucre ! ! — Pure Seed ! ! ! 
r|''HE subscribers take great pic sure in informing the Planters, 
1 Farmers and Gardeners of tii ; South, that they have securecl 
from the most reliable sources a liu ited supply of FRESH SEED, 
of this very valuable plant, the properties of which may be briefly 
summed up as follows : 
Ist. One acre of the stalks, properly cultivated, will yield from 
400 to 500 gallons of flue syrup, equal to the best New Orleans ; and 
from the same roots, a second crop of excellent fodder. 
2d. Sown broadcast or in close drills, on land deeply plowed 
and Iflghly manured, it will jfleld from thirty to fifty thousand 
pounds of superior fodder to the acre. 
3d. It surpasses all other plants for soilmg (feeding green) and 
fodder, on account of the great abundance of sugary juice which 
it contams ; and is greedily eaten by stock of all kinds. 
4th. It bears repeated cuttings, like Egyptian Millet, growing 
off freely and rapidly, after each cutting. 
5th. It stands drouth much better than common corn, retaining 
iis green color andjuiciness even after the seed matures- 
6th. The seed is excellent for hmnan food, when ground into 
meal, and fattens domestic animals very speedily. From twenty- 
five to seventy-flve bushels can be raised on an acre. 
7th. It is so cei'tain and prolific a crop that planters may be sure 
of succeeding with it as a Sugar plant anywhere South of Mary- 
land and North of Mexico. If planted early in the Southern States 
^he seed will mature and produce another crop the same season. 
The seed, which has been vei'y carefully kept pure, from 
the original importation, will be offered in cloth packages, each 
containing enough to plant half an acre, in drills, with full 
direction for the cultivation, which is perfectly simple. 
These packages will be forwarded mail, FREE OF post- 
age, to any address, on receipt of $1,30 for each package. When 
not sent by mail, we will furnish the packages at $1 each. 
Early ordei’S are solicited, as the supply of good and reliable

der in w'hich they are received, and the seed will be ready for mail- 
ing or delivery on the first of October.
