broadcast; or plant in 15-inch drills and cultivate until it is 18 
inches high. When green, feed a moderate quantity at first,

Pearl or Cat-Tail Millet. 
If allowed to attain its full height 
Pearl Millet will grow 10 to 12 feet 
high, but for the greatest amount 
of green feed it should be cut when 
3 to 4 feet high. It will then stool 
out enormously, and during warm 
weather will grow with wonderful 
luxuriance, give three or four cut¬ 
tings a season, and keep on growing 
right up to frost. It does well even 
on poor land, and surprisingly well 
in dry seasons. All kinds of stock 
eat it greedily and flourish on it; it 
is highly nutritious. It is a warm 
weather plant, and should not be 
planted till the ground is thorough¬ 
ly warm otherwise the seeds will 
not germinate. Plant 5 lbs. to the 
acre in drills 3 feet apart. By mail 
postpaid, lb. 26c; 5 lbs. 90c; 10 lbs. 
$1.65; 25 lbs. $3.40; 50 lbs. $6.65. 
Not postpaid, lb. 16c; 5 to 24 lbs. 
13c per lb.; 25 to 99 lbs. 11c per lb.; 
100 lbs. and over 10c per lb. No 
charge for bags. 
TENNESSEE GERMAN MILLET 
BROOM CORN 
Any land that will grow corn is adapted to broom corn. When 
the ground is thoroughly warm plant in 3% foot rows, thinning 
out to 8 to 10 inches in the row, and cultivate like corn. Cut when 
the seeds are at the dough stage. Six lbs. plants an acre. 
Big Headed, Large Yielding Type 
German Millet makes a quickly grown, easily cured and large 
yielding, nutritious hay crop. It comes so quickly that it can be 
sown after wheat is cut, and leaves the land clean and in fine me¬ 
chanical condition for the following crop. Millet should be cut 
when coming into flower, as after that stage the woody fibre forms 
in the stem and the hay is hard and unpalatable. Cut at the proper 
time, it makes a splendid hay. As a summer catch-crop, it has few 
equals, for it makes its crop in about sixty days, discing and har¬ 
rowing wheat or oat land being the only preparation necessary. 
Growing millet with an early variety of cowpeas like Whippoor¬ 
will or New Era is quite popular, three pecks of millet being sown 
with a bushel of cowpeas. The crop should be cut when the millet 
is coming into bloom, regardless of the maturity of the cowpeas, 
for at this stage the feeding value of the millet hay is highest. 
Grown together, the yield is larger than when either is grown alone. 
To have the finest millet hay, sow thickly, not less than a bushel 
to the acre, from the middle of May till the end of July. Thin seed¬ 
ing makes coarse stems and a poorer hay.

TEOSINTE 
A single seed producing from thirty to sixty stalks, each 10 to 12 
feet high, gives some idea of what an enormous yield may be had 
from Teosinte. If cut when 4 or 5 feet high, it makes an excellent 
fodder, starts immediately into growth again, and will give several 
more cuttings as large as the first; we have known it to yield five 
cuttings a season. If sufficient is planted, a continuous supply of 
nutritious green feed can be had daily right up to frost. The leaves 
are longer and broader than corn, contain 8 to 10 per cent of sugar, 
and are greedily eaten by all kinds of stock. It makes splendid 
ensilage. Plant in May or June in drills 3% to 4 feet apart; 2 to 3 
pounds plants an acre. By mail postpaid, oz. 10c; lb. 20c; lb. 55c;
