SPRING RYE 
Distinct from the win¬

quality and more pro¬ 
ductive; can be success¬ 
fully grown in any lati¬ 
tude, and is now being 
largely sown in the Mid¬ 
dle States in place of 
oats, being a much more 
profitable crop, on ac¬ 
count of the production 
of nearly four times the 
straw, and also as a 
“catch” crop where 
winter grain has failed. 
The straw is equally as 
valuable as that of the 
fall or winter rye, stand¬ 
ing stiff, 7 to 8 feet high. 
Produces 30 to 40 bushels 
of grain per acre. As it 
does not stool like win¬ 
ter rye, not less than 
two bushels to the acre 
should be sown. Pkt.,
