FLAX SEED 
Farmers should not lose sight of the fact that 
flax seed can be raised where wheat is raised and 
where tried has brought better results for amount 
of labor invested than wheat. Soon as ample supply 
is offered there will be a greater demand. Thirty to 
40 pounds will sow an acre. We have choice northern 
grown seed. Lb. 20c; 3 lbs. for 50c. Write for Quan¬ 
tity Price. 
RED KAFFIR CORN 
This grows taller than the white, the stalks are 
more slender and juicy and very leafy. The heads are 
long, slender, compact and grow erect; they measure 
from one to two feet. The seed is red, smaller than 
that of the white, and rather hard and brittle. It 
does well on poor land and yields earlier than the 
white variety, from 100 to 120 days, and yields much 
heavier. It is highly recommended by the Kansas 
Agricultural College at Manhattan. Lb. 10c. Write 
for Quantity Prices. 
FETERITA 
Another non-saccharine from Sudan. It is an 
early maturing, drouht-resisting sorghum of consider¬ 
able value both for fodder and grain. It has produced 
a crop where Jerusalem or Kaffir Corn has failed. It 
should be planted in hills or drills, where the ground 
becomes warm, as it rots easily in cold ground. 
Price, lb. 15c. Write for Quantity Price. 
BROOM CORN 
Requires soil similar to corn, same cultivation, 
but should be planted some later in the season. Put 
ground in prime condition. We think that more of 
western farmers should grow broom corn for market. 
It is profitable. Frequently planted in drills 3% feet 
apart, leaving plants 6 inches apart; 10 to 20 lbs. 
to the acre. 
THE OKLAHOMA BROOM CORN 
Originated in Oklahoma. Most valuable grown 
there and in the Southwest. Quite distinct from all 
others in earliness ; robust habit and extreme produc¬ 
tiveness ; brush long and well fibered and is a drouth 
resister. Averages 5 feet in height. Seed may be 
left to ripen on bush without injury to latter, re¬ 
moving danger of heating from immature seeds in 
bins. Stalks make excellent fodder if cut at once 
after brush is pulled. 10 lbs. $1.25. 
MILO MAIZE 
This is one of the sorghums similar to Kaffir 
Corn. Grows erect, with thick, close-jointed stalk. 
Height, 4 to 9 feet. Heads are very large, giving a 
heavy grain yield; is drought resistant and succeeds 
on alkali soil. Plant late, when ground is warm, 3 
to 6 lbs. per acre. Lb. 10c. 
VETCHES OR TARES 
(Vicia Sativa) 
(Common or Spring, Greatest Forage Plant) 
One of the best forage plants that can be grown 
on the Pacific Coast. This is a species of the pea, 
grown extensively in western Oregon and Washing¬ 
ton, especially in the Willamette valley and on the 
Oregon coast. It furnishes an abundance of excellent 
feed, either green or cut and cured for hay. The seed 
should be mixed with an equal weight of some variety 
of wheat, oats or rye having a stiff straw, and the 
mixture sown at the rate of 2 bushels per acre. Vetch 
weighs 70 pounds per bushel. Sow in the early spring. 
Per lb. 15c. Write for quantity prices. 
VETCHES 
Vicia Villosa (Sand or Winter) 
This variety thrives in poor, arid, sandy soils. It 
is sown either in the fall or early spring, and is 
generally mixed with rye which serves to support the 
plants. It grows to a height of 3 or 4 feet and can 
be cut twice; first as soon as the bloom appears, and 
afterward for seed. The plant is perfectly hardy and 
makes a nutritious food. 
Per lb. 15c; 25 lbs. for $3.50. Write for Quanti¬ 
ty Price. 
PEANUTS 
The peanut grows in this locality and does well 
if properly taken care of. Should be planted about 
April 15th and may be in hills about 3 feet apart 
each way. Seed may be hulled or in pod. 
Per lb. 30c; 2 lbs. 50c. 
FIELD BEANS—WHITE NAVY 
The standard white bean, of medium size. Plant 
in drills, so as to cultivate with a horse; 25 or 30 
pounds is enough for an acre.

NORTHERN 
or Medium White Bean

this section for a commercial dry bean. Price, lb. 10c; 
12 lbs. for $1.00. Write for quantity price. 
RED MEXICAN 
A very good dwarf bean. Heavy yielder and fair 
seller. Lb. 15c. 
EARLY SOJA BEANS 
Coffee Berry, also called Soy Bean 
Soja Beans are drouth resistant, much more so 
than cow peas but will not do so well as them on 
poor ground. The berries ripen in about 3 or 4 
months from the time of planting and produce a crop 
of 20 to 40 bushels per acre, and are as easily grown 
as other beans. One bushel of Soja Beans is at least 
twice as valuable as corn for feeding purposes. When
