Cereals—Graan. 
MAIZE—MIELIES. 
We offer Selected Seed Maize of all the best varieties, as listed below. When 
required for green forage or for silage a cheaper grade of seed may often be used 
without detriment to the crop and we are always in a position to quote specially for 
such requirements. Please write us about it. 
Pretoria Branch. —Being nearer to the source of production, our Pretoria Branch 
can usually quote cheaper prices for seed maize than is possible from Mowbray stocks. 
When the seed has to be railed from here the price, delivered Pretoria, is found by 
adding 1/6 per 100 lbs to cover cost of railage.

SORGHUMS. 
On land that will grow Maize you may also sow any of the Sorghums with 
equal success and one of the most useful of these is Sudan Grass. This is not 
nearly so coarse or tall in growth as the other Sorghums and is well named as it 
is more like a grass than any of them. It makes splendid hay and may also be 
grown for grazing purposes but of course it is an annual, lasting only the one season. 
Pretoria Branch. —Sorghums, when quoted at more than 30/- per lOOlbs., will be 
supplied at Pretoria for the same price. When the price is 30/- or less 1/6 per lOOlbs 
must be added, to cover the cost of railage, except when local supplies are available. 
SORGHUMS.

good length and retains its light green colouring 
Sudan Grass. —Has thinner stems and narrower foliage than 
other Sorghums; cures well for hay; a fine variety, now 
extensively grown.

Millet. 
< < 
Japan 
Barnyard” is undoubtedly the best on reasonably good soil, but “Proso” and “Pearl” 
Millet are also excellent varieties and will stand more hardships than the first named. 
“ Pearl ” Millet in particular is capable of growing on hot, sandy soil which would 
not support any other similar crop. All the Millets are summer growers and may be 
sown from September onwards. Don’t sow the Pearl Millet too early because it is 
intolerant of cold conditions.
