EGYPTIAN WHEAT CORN-A Great Novelty From India 
This is a non-saccharine Sorghum cultivated very extensively in India and recently brought 
to thi3 country and found to yield very valuable crops. As a grain it is much more valuable 
than Kafiir Corn as it yields a larger amount of seed. It is of stooling habit, producing from 
three to six stalks from a single grain. The heads grow similar to Broom Corn, forming 
large heads of round, plump, white seed. It is an excellent feed for horses and cattle, and 
for chicken feed it is simply unexcelled, and when ground makes excellent flour for pancakes; 
besides it can be popped as pop corn, as it has a surprisingly good flavor, very tender and 
crisp. It is more of a grain crop than forage, forming double the seed of Kaffir Corn and 
more than anCane or Sorghum plant that we know of. In India this grain is grown under 
the name of “Shallu” and in this country is also known under the names of “California Rice 
Corn”, “California Wheat.” and “Egyptian Wheat .** We hope all of our customers will try it 
this year. Pkt.. 5c„ 3 pkts.. 10c., 6 pkts., 18c.. 12 pkts., 30c.. postpaid.

This is a splendid novelty ef feCCnt introduction, 
color and appearance ana pn enorm¬ 
ous yielder. As shown, vines of this Vegetable 
smaller than a Musk Melon vine, but 
require about the same cultivation. It is a 
wonderful yielder, producing fruit about the size 
of an Orange of a bright yellow color, somewhat 
russeted. In the west where fruit is scarce, this 
is rapidly becoming popular. For sweet 
pies or preserves they are splendid and

This Giant Radish grows to enormous dimensions. The il- 
ustration was made from a photograph of v specimen meas- 
lring 43 inches in circumference and 21 inches in length. The 
ikin is pure white, flesh_firm andsoiid, mild as an apple and 
luperior to the most delicate spring radishes, thrives in any 
toil or location. It is good to eat when in bloom as in younger 
lays and the taste is more delicate than our American varie¬ 
ties, always crisp and tender, at the same time one of the 
greatest curiosities ever grown in the garden. Think of it; 
this enormous radish, on account of its mildness and excel¬ 
lent flavor, can be sliced and eaten like an apple. 
If you intend to grow any new varieties cf vegetables this 
year in your garden, do not fail to plant this radish. You will 
readily realize that it is an enormous variety the minute you 
see the seed on account of its large size. We are sure this 
radish will be a perfect wonder to all your neighbors.
