FIELD SEEDS—(Continued) 
JAPANESE BUCKWHEAT 
A most wonderfully prolific, hardy Buckwheat. A yield of 60 bushels per 
acre is common. It is a long bloomer, the kernels more than double the size 
of other varieties. It makes the finest flour and earlier than Silver Hull. Sow 
about middle of June, 1 to 1 % bushels to the acre. Price per bushel, $2.50 
SPRING RYE

acre. Price per bushel, $2.90 
CANADA HELD PEAS 
Excellent feed for cattle when sown with oats. They can be fed green or 
dry. They will grow on land that will not produce clover. Sow 1*4 to 3 bushels 
to the acre; or, if with oats, sow 1 bushel of each. Pea and oat hay is commonly 
known among our best dairymen as a very valuable feed, which in many cases 
cannot be equalled. Can be sown in March or early in April. Extra fine quality 
for seeding. Fancy white. Price per bushel, $3.50 
COW PEAS 
Are more tender than Canada Field Peas, and should not be sown until 
corn-planting time. Cow peas, being a very rapid growth during the warm

able crop either for harvesting or plowing under. Sow 1 bushel to the acre.

much better on rich soil when it will grow 4 to 5 feet high. Sow 1 V 2 to 2

poultry food. Sow 2 % bushels per acre as early as ground can be worked.
