R.-H. Co.'s Seed Oats 
Millet 
Culture —Sow as early as possible, in February and through March, in good soil two to two and one-half 
bushels to the acre. If the soil is poor, use 200 to 300 pounds 16% Phosphate to the acre. Cut them for 
hay when the oats are in the milk stage or about half mature. 
Early Burt or Ninety-Day Oats 
Probably the earliest maturing of all Oats, hence 
Burts can be planted after it is too late to sow any 
other variety. Can be planted in Mai’ch and mature 
in time to escape injury from heat. Early plant¬ 
ings can be cut in time to put the same land in 
corn, cowpeas, soy beans, peanuts, cane, millet, or 
other summer crops. For quick feed in the spring 
and for grazing, the Early Burt is the best of all. 
It is not a heavy yielder of grain, but fine for 
cutting in the dough stage. 
Appier Oafs 
This is another development from an improve¬ 
ment over the old original Red Rust-Proof Oats. 
Its productiveness, probably more than any of its 
other good qualities, has contributed to its wide 
popularity. They stool out splendidly, have large, 
full heads, fine, plump grains and strong straw that 
stands about three feet high. It has plump grains 
and exceptional heavy weight; the weight per 
measured bushel averaged 36 pounds, often reach¬ 
ing 37 pounds, and almost never falling below 
32 pounds. 
Fulghum 
A rust-proof variety developed from the original 
Red Rust-Proof Oat. It is one of the most satis¬ 
factory and popular oats known. Its productiveness 
and early maturity, probably more than any of its 
other good qualities, have contributed to its wide 
popularity. They stool out splendidly, have large 
full heads, fine plump grains, and strong straw 
that stands about 3 feet high. 
Treat all seed oats before planting- with 
New Improved Ceresan. 
Fulgrain Strain 2 Oats 
This variety bred and introduced by Coker’s 
Pedigreed Seed Farms. It is very cold resistant, 
stools profusely, making it a splendid grazing 
crop. Bred to resist smut damage. Two weeks 
earlier than Red Rust-Proof and Appiers. Five 
days earlier than Fulghum. A very prolific grain 
yielder; contains 10% to 15% higher protein and 
fat content than other oats. 
Red Rust-Proof Oats 
For years the standard in the South. Thousands 
of acres are planted to Red Rust-Proof Oats each 
year. Oats in the South have long been subject 
to rust and that’s why the Northern White Oats 
are not successful down South. The Red Rust-Proof 
Oat is a very vigorous grower, robust and produc¬ 
tive, does well on low ground. 
Ferguson 922 
Another of the improved strains introduced from 
Texas out of original Rust-Proof variety. A very 
prolific yielder, standing with Nortex right at the 
top in Mississippi Experiment Station tests. 
Nortex Oats 
Introduced and named by the Northern Texas 
Experiment Station. A much improved strain of 
original Texas Red Rust-Proof. A little earlier and 
much more winter-resistant. In numerous tests at 
Mississippi Experiment Station, has stood right at 
top in yields of grain per acre.

prices on Seed Oats and Millet. 
SAGRAIN 
Grows on land you can’t plant to other crops; thrives in low places that 
usually drown out. Produces from 8 to 20 tons silage, or if left to ripen 
will produce from 60 to 76 bushels grain (about double corn yield), and 
4 to 8 tons cured hay; has heads like Kaffir. Usually weighs about 7 
ounces and the average ear corn weighs 8 ounces. In feeding value has 90% 
value corn ; can be fed to hogs, chickens, cattle and work stock. Plant as 
early in the spring as frost will allow. Will then be ready to harvest when 
the crops are laid by, usually along about August 1. Splendid in combination 
with Biloxi Soy Beans. 
Plant in 3%-foot rows. Cultivate a couple of times and thin out, leaving 
a stalk every 8 inches apart. Use a common sorghum or pea plate. We do 
not recommend broadcast planting. Can be best harvested with corn binder, 
shocked like oats until cured. Six to eight pounds will seed an acre, planted 
in 3 to 3^-foot rows. From each seed planted you get from 6 to 10 heads of 
grain as it stools out and should be left very thin in drill. 
303-37. An improved strain, a dwarf selection of the original Sagrain, with 
heavier head. Stalks grow stocky, dwarf and very uniform. You will find 
it a great improvement over the regular strain.

R.-H. Co.’s MILLET 
Nothing pays better for a stock raiser or dairy farmer than a few acres of 
Millet, for it not only yields at least half again as much hay per acre as 
Timothy or Clover but is also of the greatest feeding value and milk pro¬ 
ducing quality. When spring is so unfavorable that other crops fail to grow, 
or when the season is so late that corn will not mature. Millet is invaluable. 
Tennessee German Millet' 
Our Southern grown Millet makes muh better growth than the Western 
grown seed. This true Tennessee grown, a type that produces better quality, 
grows taller and gives a larger yield of very nutritious hay, is a quick 
grower. It should be cut for hay when it begins to show the heads. Plant 
1 V 2 to 2 bushels an acre broadcast. Plant from April to August. 
Japanese or Barnyard Millet 
Distinct from other millets ; grows 4 to 6 feet high, yielding an enormous 
crop that in quality is equal to corn fodder and is relished by stock. Sow in 
May, June or July, 20 pounds to the acre broadcast; or sow in 15-inch drills 
and cultivate until it is 18 inches high. 
Pearl or Cattail Millet 
One of the greatest and best yielders of green forage and continues to grow 
and produce through the entire season if cut frequently enough to prevent its 
going to seed; three to four cuttings may be had. Sow thinly in rows 3 feet 
apart at rate of 8 to 10 pounds per acre.
