WHITE WONDER 
A long- headed, heavy producing, early maturing variety. 
This is a very fine type of Millet preferred by some over all 
others. The foliage is very heavy which accounts for its big 
yields. The long heads make prolific seed yields. It is a 
top-notcher in yield of hay and seed. Leaves fairly broad. 
Cures readily. Seed light colored. A trial of this variety 
will prove its superior worth. Our seed quality is very fine. 
See page 32 for bargain prices. 
The genuine German or Golden Millet is a truly remarkable crop. This Millet / 
is an enormous yielder both of hay and seed. Its tall dense growth affords a lot *- 
of fine feed in a short time. The crop is quick growing and a great drought resister. 
Seed yields run 40 to 50 bushels per acre. Can be sown as late as in July and make 
a fine crop. This fine leafy crop is certainly a great help to any farmer caught short 
on feed. 
There is a lot of difference in Millet seed and we want you to be sure to try our stocks. 
Heavy producing stock is generally sold at premium prices. You will find our quotations on 
page 32 unusually attractive. This seed is cleaned, graded and distinctly a superior product 
For feed or seed production our German Millet is a winner. Order your seed early and get 
the choicest stock. 
PROSO 
name of Hog Millet, a big seed 
producing Millet. It is not 
as good a hay variety as the 
others. The seed is consider¬ 
ably larger, and is grown chiefly 
for seed. This is used in feeds 
of different kinds. Equal to small 
I grains in fattening value for hogs. 
I Poultry men have been praising its 
I value highly, and they are largely 
J responsible for the great interest in 
/ this crop, in the past few years.

Hungarian Millet 
Earlier than the German but not quite as 
early as Siberian. Very leafy and makes a 
good production of fine quality hay. Stools 
freely. This variety is widely grown. On 
account of its earliness it is especially good 
for northern states but its use is by no 
means confined to that section. In some 
places it is called Hungarian 
Grass. Seed runs mixed col- i

A Forage Crop You Should Know Better 
You have probably heard about Cane most of your life, but do you know what it 
can do for you? It is one of the heaviest producing crops you can grow. Will pro¬ 
duce 30,000 lbs. to 60,000 lbs. of green feed per acre with some yields as high as 
80,000 lbs. Tlie yields of cured hay 10,000 to 20,000 lbs. per acre with some records 
as high as 30,000 lbs. or 15 tons per acre. Seed production may vary from 30 bushels 
to 50 bushels to the acre with some reporting 60 bushels. Study these figures. Con¬ 
sider what an enormous production that is.

corn. It gets at plant food that corn cannot reach. Its deep roots also make it a better drought, 
reslster, having a wonderful capacity in hat respect. It withstands the onslaught ot hot winds 
better. Cane is also alkaline resistant and a good crop for such land. Cane does not remove as 
much plant food proportionately as small grain. , ,

Little Genesee. N. Y. 
Gentlemen: I just harvested 6 acres of new 
seeding that I seeded with your Alsike, Ked Clover 
and Timothy seed. I got 20 tons of nice hay off 
of the G acres, and I have 6 acres more to cut of 
it and it is as good. It is the best seed I ever 
bought. C. C. Giddings.
