NICHOLSON’S SELECTED EARLY FUL- 
GHUM. These Oats stand up well, mature 
about ten days to two weeks earlier than the 
ordinary Texas Red Oats, and ripen all at the 
same time. Do not blow down easily and are 
practically beardless. Please ask for prices. 
Mammoth Russian 
Sunflower 
The seed is highly valued by farmers and 
poultry breeders who have tried it. Single 
heads measure 12 to 20 inches in diameter 
and contain large quantities of seed, and can 
be raised much cheaper than corn. This is a 
profitable crop for the farmer to grow, as 
there is a big demand for the seed to mix 
in poultry feeds. Five to ten pounds will 
plant an acre. Lb., 30c; 2 lbs., 55c, postpaid. 
Not prepaid, 10 lbs., $1.65. Ask for prices 
on larger quantities.

Makes excellent pasture and yields from 40 
to 60 bushels per acre. We sell immense 
quantities of this splendid variety each fall. 
Barley should be planted at the rate of about 
two bushels per acre. Ground Barley makes 
wonderful feed. Not prepaid, pk., 35c; bu., 
$1.00; 10 bu., $8.50. Ask for prices on larger 
quantities. 
RYE 
Farmers, dairymen, and stock raisers appre¬ 
ciate the value of Rye as a winter pasture 
crop. Sow at the rate of 1% to iy 2 bushels 
per acre. 
FALL OR WINTER. Rye has long been 
recognized as one of our best grains for 
winter pasture. The seed we offer is all 
thoroughly recleaned and tested for germina¬ 
tion. Pk., 40c; bu., $1.35; 10 bu., $1.25 per 
bu. not prepaid. Ask for prices on larger 
quantities. 
DWARF ESSEX RAPE 
The use of Rape has grown in a few years 
from a few thousand pounds of seed used, to 
thousands of tons of seed per year. Rape is 
one of the most valuable forage plants, its 
many uses being considered, that has ever 
been introduced into the United States. Until 
lately, Rape has been grown mostly for 
sheep pasture, but in recent years people 
have learned that it is equally valuable as a 
forage crop for cattle, hogs, and poultry. The 
i young, tender leaves of Rape make fine greens 
for table use and are preferred by some to 
mustard and other greens. To those of our 
customers who are not familiar with Rape, 
we will say that it grows somewhat like a 
cabbage plant before the cabbage begins to 
head up; however, the Rape makes a larger 
plant, often 18 inches to 2 feet high, under 
favorable weather conditions and on good soil 
Rape will produce from 10 to 25 tons of green 
forage per acre. It can be grown in the 
fall as it stands our wintei’s without killing; 
it can also be sown in the spring with good 
results. Sow in drills at the rate of 5 to 8 
pounds per acre. Lb., 25c; 2 lbs., 45c, post¬ 
paid. Not prepaid, 20 lbs., $1.75. Ask for 
prices on larger quantities. 
It Pays to Grow 
Cover Crops 
Many farmers fail to realize 
that every crop taken off their 
land carries with it plant food 
from the soil. Unless some 
method of returning this plant 
food is practiced, the supply 
gradually diminishes until the 
land can no longer furnish the 
required food and the crop yield 
grows smaller and smaller, final¬ 
ly resulting in complete crop 
failure. It will therefore pay 
you, when you plant FEED 
CROPS, to give every consider¬ 
ation to Clover, Peas or other 
legumes that will restore plant 
life to your soil as well as pro¬ 
duce a crop of feed. 
TEXOTA BRAND FANCY RED RUST 
PROOF. We recommend these Oats to par¬ 
ticular farmers who want a good quality of 
seed. We will be glad to submit samples. 
Bu., 95c; 10 bu. or over at 85c per bu., not 
prepaid. Write for prices on larger quantities.
