FIELD 
•Sudan Grass. Short crop. True Seed. There 
is no longer any question about the good qualities 
of Sudan Grass; it has come to stay and will be¬ 
come a great annual feed crop. The true Sudan 
seed is nearly white, while many of the hybrid 
varieties on the market are of a dark brownish 
color. We grew this seed last season and know 
it is genuine. Sudan is valuable to sow with 
other legumes as it will hold them up and is 
considered far ahead of millet for feeding. 
Horses are fond of it and eat even the coarse 
bottom stalks. It requires 3 to 4 lbs. per acre 
in drills 3 feet apart and 5 to 6 lbs. per acre 
in drills 20 inches apart and about 16 lbs. broad¬ 
cast. It should not be planted too early as 
frost will injure it. Corn planting season is the 
best time. y x lb. 15c; lb., 55c, postpaid; E. or 
F., 50c; 10 lbs. at 45c.

•Improved Purple-Top Yellow—We find 
this the best all-round Ruta Baga. Produces 
nice, smooth, globe-shaped roots free from side 
roots. The best for table use and very rich 
and productive for stock feeding. It is early 
and will mature good roots, planted late in the 
season. Good seed from selected roots.
