Forage Crop Seeds are subject to fluctu¬ 
ations in Market Values. Let us quote 
prices on the quantity you want when 
you are ready to buy. 
MINNESOTA No. 13 — An early maturing 
yellow dent corn that is a favorite in all the 
corn-growing sections west of the Rockies, 
more of it being grown than all other varieties 
combined. The stalks are of medium size, the 
ears 9 to 11 inches long. Pound, 10c. 
]U£§ PRIDE OF THE NORTH—An early 
maturing, long-kerneled yellow sort that we 
recommend for any corn district west of the 
Rockies. The stalks are larger than those of 
Minnesota No. 13 and the kernels deeper. 
Pound, 10c. 
CHAMPION WHITE PEARL — A late 
white dent producing large ears and especially 
adapted to the warmer sections of the West. 
Pound, 10c. 
j!J£§ NORTHWESTERN RED or SMOKY 
DENT—A quick-maturing, red-kerneled corn 
much grown in the mountainous regions where 
the seasons are short. This is the old Bloody 
Butcher variety, which has long been a favor- 
ite in some districts. Pound, 10c. 
KING PHILLIP FLINT—An early red flint 
variety, for districts too cold for dent corn. 
Pound, 10c. 
IDEAL SILO CORN 
SOY BEANS 
MANCHU SOY BEANS 
Jj!£g 
IDEAL SILO — A strong, vigorous 
yellow dent variety, with stalks that grow 8 to 
10 feet high and broad, thick leaves that make 
the finest silage. Sets lots of ears, which de¬ 
velop rapidly, making silage of high-feeding 
value. Ideal Silo Corn produces ears from 8 to 
14 inches long. Pound, 10c. 
BUCKWHEAT 
Fagopyrum esculentum —45 to 60 pounds 
per acre 
JAPANESE —Grown both for green manur¬ 
ing and for a grain crop, frequently planted 
to smother out noxious weeds, because it pro¬ 
duces very dense foliage. Valuable as bee 
pasture while in bloom. Pound, 10c. 
Soja max—30 to 50 pounds per acre 
MANCHU—Best when planted in rows and cultivated. Much the 
same method of culture is used for raising garden beans. The stems 
are woody and of questionable value for roughage, but the seeds 
are rich in oil and are considered a very concentrated food. 
Pound, 20c. 
EARLY AMBER 
CANE 
DWARF ESSEX RAPE 
Sorghum—8 to 10 pounds per acre 
The most common variety of forage 
Sorghum grown. Plant late in the 
spring, the crop requires warm weather 
and is drought-resistant. Thrives only 
in warm climate. Pound, 15c. 
EARLY AMBER CANE 
RAPE 
Brassica napus —3 to 5 pounds 
per acre 
DWARF ESSEX—An excellent crop 
for pasture, and for cutting and feeding 
green for hogs, sheep, goats and poultry. 
Fed to dairy cows it causes a 
large flow of milk. # It does 
best on peaty soils. 
Pound, 15c. 
SUNFLOWER 
Helianthus annuus—10 to 
1 5 pounds per acre 
MAMMOTH RUSSIAN — 
Now planted extensively in 
some sections for silage, being 
grown just about the same as 
corn. On good land as much 
as 80 tons of green food has 
been produced per acre. In 
higher altitudes and under 
dry-farming conditions, the 
average yields per acre are 
greater than that of any other 
forage crop. Pound, 15c. 
Often only a little fertilizer is required to change failure into success. Garden Morcrop is the proper fertilizer to use.
