ON ACCOUNT OF THE OIL NOW BEING USED FOR FOOD, A 
PROPOSITION THAT IS BOUND TO PRODUCE MORE 
WEALTH FOR FARMERS THAN DID THE SOY BEAN. 
A BLESSING TO FARMERS 
AND BUSINESS MEN 
The first account of this new Mammoth Russian Sunflower 
oil, cattle, hog and chicken feed was published here May 21, 1937. 
A letter from the Russian Embassy states that for 1936 
over 1,047,000,000 lbs. of oil was extracted, which is used for food 
purposes and in industry. 
We have imported as much as 5,677,000 lbs. of Sunflower 
Seed in a single year, and as much as 37,000,000 lbs. of Sunflower 
If you own a farm or have a friend who does, don’t let this 
. offer get away from you. 
. Average yield in Missouri, 400 lbs. per acre; Illinois, 650 
idbs, and California, 700 lbs. 
Plant with corn planter or grain drill in rows 36 inches 
apart; plants, 8-10 inches apart. 
Will produce from 20 to 30 tons of feed per acre under 
moist conditions and 5 to 10 tons under dry farming. 
Many claim Sunflower silage equal to corn for stock. 
Write your Dept., of Agriculture for bulletin on SUNFLOWER 
SEED. 
The Russian Government planted 7,090,000 acres this year. 
Last year, they produced 1,047,137,000 lbs. of oil, and millions of 
tons of feed. 
r A ONE DOLLAR BILL WILL BUY ENOUGH OF THIS 
NEW OIL SEED AND STOCK FEED which if planted in 1938, 
will produce enough seed to plant a dozen farms. 
With Russia planting over 7,000,000 acres, there must be 
something to it.

Don’t make the mistake thousands of our farmers did: 
When I returned from the Far East in 1917, and told our Chamber 
of Commerce about the millions of pounds of soy beans raised in 
the Far East, they were not interested; but they finally woke up 
and today we raise and import millions of pounds, that will event¬ 
ually be raised here.
