Enormous Yield of PROSO 
Here is a new Poultry Grain which owes its origin to Russia, that enables you to raise 
your own feed. If you only have a small plot of ground you can raise an enormous crop. 
Proso is unlike anything you have ever seen in this country. It grows more rapidly and 
matures quicker than other grains. It reaches a height of three to four feet, stools and 
branches, making fifteen to twenty-five heads instead of one. That is why it yields such 
enormous crops from such unbelievably small plots of ground. The Sarasota County Trib¬ 
une, May 5, 1931, of Sarasota, Florida, says: “Our test plots of Proso haves drawn visitors 
from, many miles around.” 
Fowls Prefer It to Other Feeds 
Prof. Hansen says of Proso? “When it is hulled and cooked for the table 
the Russians call it Kasha, and it is used extensively in European Russia, 
Siberia, Turkestan, Mongolia, and other parts of Asia. This is specially 
valuable grain. For feeding stock, poultry, etc., it is equal to, or better 
than wheat'.” 
It is also used in those countries for flour and making into bread. In Rus¬ 
sia one buys Proso bread just as you buy wheat bread here. It is ex¬ 
tremely palatable, and fowls prefer it to any other grain. In our exper¬ 
imental plant the fowls leave all other grains once they have tasted Proso. 
Try it yourself. Put a handful of Proso in your mash feeder and watch 
how the birds do not touch the mash so long as any Proso remains.

Proso makes a splendid mash when ground alone. When feeding with corn 5 
or oats the ratio should be four parts Proso to one part other grain. It § 
may be fed in bundles as the kernels are readily scratched out of the = 
heads, or it may be fed as clean grain from the thresher. Produces more j 
eggs and meat per bushel than ordinary grains.

Grows Anywhere—May Be Planted Late 
The above illustration shows 
a stalk of proso grain heads. 
Notice how hardy and bushy 
this plant is. It grew to a 
height of 3 V 2 feet, stooled 
and branched, producing 21 
heads/ on one of which was 
1185 grains. One authority 
tells us that a half pound of 
seed should produce 10 to 20 
bushels of grain. 
Although a native of Russia, Proso does better, grows faster and matures 
quicker in our climate. During the fifteen years since it was first intro- = 
duced in this country it has become acclimated so that it now grows here E 
just as well as our native crops. It may be planted any time after corn | 
planting time up to the middle of July. ? 
Proso may be planted in high, dry soil that is not suitable for other E 
grains. It is especially valuable as a summer “catch crop”—something | 
that may be planted on land which has had an early crop removed, or = 
ground that has been drowned out and not' in shape to work until late in ? 
the season. E
