GRAIN for POULTRY 
Our customers who keep some poul¬ 
try may be interested to know about 
a Poultry Grain we offer. It is called 
PROSO, an enormous yielder and 
matures a crop in a very short time; 
our plantings made in July were ready 
to harvest in less than 60 days. It 1 
grows more rapidly and matures 
quicker than other grains; reaches a 
height of 3 to 4 feet, stools and 
branches making 12 to 20 heads in¬ 
stead of one. and that is why it yields 
such enormous crops from very small 
plots of ground. It is claimed for 
feeding poultry Proso is equal to 
Wheat; it may be fed in bundles, as 
the kernels are readily scratched out 
of the heads, or fed as clean grain. 
It may be planted any time from Corn 
planting time up to July 15th. and it will 
grow in soil that is not suitable for many 
other grains. 
Illustration shows 21 Proso grain heads, 
one of which had 1185 grains. This accounts 
for its enorrnous yielding qualities. From a 
packet or ounce of seed you can test it out as 
a poultry feed and keep plenty to plant another 
year. Pkt., »<: <»*,. 10(1 VSi »>.. 30*.
