JAPANESE MILLET. All things considered, we 
call this the most valuable thing in our whole list 
of forage plants. It has been sold under different 
names, as “Billion Dollar Grass,” “Steel Trust Mil¬ 
let,” etc., but they are all one and the same thing. 
We recommend it because it makes more hay than 
the other millets, is adapted to all sections, two crops 
may be cut from it and it requires less seed per acre. 
Treat it the same as German Millet, except that it 
may be sown a little earlier. Use 20 to 30 lbs. per 
acre. 
WHITE WONDER MILLET. Grown under seml- 
arid conditions, this millet has proven itself to be 
equally as hardy and vigorous as the other varieties. 
It produces extraordinarily large heads and Is ear¬ 
lier than German millet. The leaves are icng and 
broad, consequently the amount of fodder produced 
is large and the weeds are kept from maturing. These 
desirable features should give White Wonder a lead¬ 
ing place among millet®.

THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN GER¬ 
MAN MILLET AND COMMON 
MILLET 
In the North, Millet is sown almost altogether 
for hay, and for that purpose Southern-grown 
German Millet is much better than Common Mil¬ 
let. It grows taller than Common Millet and 
that means more hay. It is finer, and that means 
better hay. Millet seed produced in the North, 
even from Southern seed, becomes eventually 
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 
change and is readily distinguished by those ex¬ 
perienced in handling it. 
GOLDEN (Sontbern Grown). Southern- 
crown German or Golden Millet Seed is far su¬ 
perior, both in quality and yield, to Western 
or Northern-grown seed. When properly srrown 
or handled, it makes an enormous yield of 
nutritious feed, succeeding in almost any soil. 
Sow In May or June, one bushel to the acre. 
Price varies with the market. 
MANITOBA OB HOG MILLET. This has come 
to be one of the most valuable crops that the 
farmer can raise, the seed being the richest and 
most valuable hog food that can be produced, 
while the hay is very valuable for stock. A very 
much prized peculiarity of the New Manitoba is 
that the seed ripens while the hay is yet green, 
when if cut promptly can be threshed for seed, 
while the hay makes excellent fodder after being 
threshed. 
THE NEW SIBERIAN. The most wonderfully 
productive and satisfactory forage plant, possess¬ 
ing in a superior degree all the essential merits 
of any of the older sorts—exceeding them by far 
—besides many other points of excellence that 
distinguishes it and renders it a most valuable 
addition to the list of forages, and the claims 
are well founded which destines it to take front 
rank, if not lead of all the rest. It is said to 
have come from Russia, which would, of course, 
give it vigor and hardiness not possessed toy those 
originating In a warm climate. 
HUNGARIAN GRASS. A valuable forage 
plant, withstands drouth, yields well on light 
soil. Sow broadcast at the rate of thirty-four 
to forty-eight pounds to the acre and cultivate 
the same as millet. Weight, 48 pounds per bu. 
COMMON MILLET (Panicum Mllliaceum). Very 
early; grows two or three feet high; foliage 
broad. Sow In drills broadcast from May 1 to 
June 20, if for seed, or until the last of July for 
nay For grain sow In drills; use 30 to 50 lbs. 
per acre. Tf for hay sow broadcast, 50 lbs. per 
acre. Weight. 50 lbs. per bu.
