ALFALFA 
The king of legume crops. For pasture, hay 
or soil improvement. Plant 20 pounds to the 
acre of either variety listed below. 
Hairy Peruvian: The most prolific of all vari¬ 
eties. Favored by growers in the South. 
Keeps on growing even in cool weather. 
Common Variety: A small-stemmed plant 
and very satisfactory tonnage producer. Our 
seed is Texas grown and therefore is ac¬ 
climated to Texas conditions. 
MILLET 
German: A Texas favorite on account of its 
heavy yield. Five tons per acre is not uncom¬ 
mon for a favorable season on good land. 
Plant three pecks per acre. 
SUDAN GRASS 
Everyone who has tried a crop of Sudan 
Grass has found it a profitable one. A splendid 
forage crop where rainfall is deficient. A great success wherever tested in 
the South. Sudan Grass is a fine hay crop, grows quickly and can be cut 
several times a season. For hay, broadcast 30 lbs. to the acre. 
GRAIN SORGHUM 
Hegari: Cross between white Kaffir and Feterita, but contains more 
saccharine than either. Drought-resistant and heavy yielder. Good 
for grain or fodder. S WEET SORGHUM 
Red Top: Sometimes called African Cane. One of the best syrup canes, 
and grows a large amount of fodder. 
MILO MAIZE 
Double Dwarf Yellow Milo: Short stalk variety, but heads and seeds 
are large. Earlier than Kaffir or old type milo; yields 60 to 100 bushels 
per acre under favorable soil and weather conditions. Very drought- 
resistant. 
Dwarf Yellow Milo: Stalks grow to about 8 feet in height; and produce 
many large leaves. An excellent fodder for drought sections. 
TEXAS SEEDED RIBBON CANE 
Japanese or Honey Drip: Closely resembles the true ribbon cane raised 
from cuttings. The most popular for syrup. 
CORN 
Giant Yellow Dent (Field): A splendid yellow corn suited to the South. 
Large ears; deep kernels. Stands dry weather. 
Surecropper: Stands drought, often produces two ears, will stand lots 
of hot weather. Matures in 100 to 110 days. 
Texas Honey June (Sweet): A new variety developed by Texas Ex¬ 
periment Station. Medium size ears with heavy husks which resist 
ear-worm damage. Very sweet. 
COW PEAS 
Small quantities of cow peas are listed on page 121. 
Blackeye: Good feed, and a fine soil conditioner. Vines make good fod¬ 
der. Peas also splendid for table use. 
Whippoorwill: An early variety and heavy yielder for fattening hogs. 
Will make before summer heat. 
Clay: A late variety. Has a running habit which produces greater 
quantity of hay or forage. 
RAPE 
Dwarf Essex: A crop that should receive more attention. Not only a 
good hog food, but splendid as a green feed for all livestock, as well as 
for chickens and for table greens. 
PEANUTS 
Spanish: (Hand Picked.) Early variety; heavy yielder. Hand picking 
before planting reduces losses.
