Millets 
Millets are adapted to regions of light rainfall and hot 
weather. Used principally for forage and valuable where 
Timothy is an uncertain crop. The hay is fed to dairy 
cows and sheep, and ranks well above Timothy. 
HUNGARIAN (Hungarian Grass). An excellent food for 
horses when cured. Each root sends up several slender 
stems which often branch. The leaves grow upright, 
rather narrow. Heads are borne erect or nearly so, 
about four inches long, dark purple in color. Price, 
lb., 12c; 10 lbs., 85c; 100 lbs., $7.50. 
GOLDEN. This variety is extensively used throughout 
the United States. It is sown at the same time and 
at the same rate per acre as the common Millet. 
Grows more vigorous, gives a much larger yield of 
hay than common Millet. Price, lb., 12c; 10 lbs., 
80c; 100 lbs., $7.00. 
JAPANESE (Panicum frumentacea). It is entirely distinct 
from all other Millets. Grows from 6 to 9 feet high, 
stands up well and yields enormous crops. When cured 
it makes good hay and in quality is superior to corn 
fodder. Relished by all kinds of stock and is rich in 
milk-producing qualities. Price, lb., 10c; 10 lbs., 75c; 
100 lbs., $6.50. 
Soy or Soja Beans 
BLACK WILSON. Medium size, black seed. Considered 
the best all-around variety for the North. Of rather 
upright growth, with a good amount of foliage and 
a slight tendency to vine on fertile soil. Matures seeds 
in 125 days and is ready for cutting in 110 days. A 
heavy seed producer. Pk., $1.00; bu., $3.50. 
MANCHU. Matures in about 1 10 days and is the most 
popular early variety. Plants erect and bushy, pro¬ 
ducing large crops of dry forage and seed. Seed light 
yellow with a black scar. Pk., 95c; bu., $3.25. 
Vetch 
SPRING VETCH OR SPRING TARE. Grown for soiling, 
or sown with oats for feeding green. Sow, if alone, 
100 pounds to the acre. Price, lb., 15c; 10 lbs., or 
over, 9c per lb. 
WINTER, SAND OR HAIRY VETCH (Vicia villosa). 
The branches are from 3 to 6 feet long, covered with 
fine hairs. It is extremely hardy. Sowings may be made 
from August 15th to October 1st, or in the spring 
from April 15th to May 15th. For fall sowings we 
advise mixing with Mammoth Red Clover or Rye, 
these giving a support for the vines. Sow, if alone, 
60 pounds to the acre, or with Rye, 45 pounds of 
Vetch and 30 pounds of Rye to the acre. Price, lb., 
20c; 10 lbs., $1.50; 100 lbs., $14.00. 
Wheat 
MARQUIS (Spring Wheat). It has outyielded all other 
spring Wheats grown under the same conditions of 
soil and climate, the increased yield being up to 10 
bushels per acre; is flinty and dark in color, being 
almost dark red. It is a beardless variety, having a 
smooth, yellow chaff. Price, pk., 90c; bu., $3.40. 
KLONDYKE (Winter Wheat). Sow early in the fall 
for a good firm root to survive our New England 
winters. Winter Wheat makes an excellent green 
feed, coming very early in the spring and staying in 
condition for feed much longer than spring or winter 
rye. A productive, bald, white variety, large and 
plump. Price, pk., 85c; bu. (60 lbs.), $3.00.

Gentlemen: , , , . ., c . 
We were qlad to have your letter in regard to the Eureka 
Ensilage Corn, but California has nothing on us. It grows from 
eiqhteen to twenty feet on the average in a fifteen acre field. 
It has arown twenty-tour feet tall and hasn't stopped growing 
yet. Can you beat this record in Massachusetts? 
We will send you an order for Eureka later. 
Yours very truly, 
Hardy and rugged characteristics; Eureka Corn germ¬ 
inates surprisingly well in cold, wet springs, and today 
farmers everywhere heartily approve planting the Ross 
Genuine variety of Eureka Corn. 
The Eureka is our own introduction, being first placed 
on the market by us forty-eight years ago and we still 
offer the genuine Eureka, which is far superior to many 
varieties which are sold under this same name. For the 
protection of the planter, the Eureka comes put up in 
trade marked bags and our suggestion is that you ac¬ 
cept your Eureka Seed Corn in no other package. 
The trade mark, "Eureka Corn," is printed on every 
bag for your protection. Don't take chances on an in¬ 
ferior product. There is nothing just as good, and you 
take no chances of losing as many dollars as you save 
cents.
