SEEDS 
TION CERTIFICATE ATTACHED 
For forty years the farmers of the Ozarks have put their 
faith in “Star Brand Seeds” in sealed bags. Why? Be¬ 
cause “Star Brand” Seeds are of the highest type, fully 
matured, perfectly recleaned, analyzed for purity and test¬ 
ed for germination. To enable you to secure your seeds 
at the lowest price we have local representatives in every 
community who order their seeds in large quantities or car¬ 
load lots. You can save money by ordering through our 
local representative. 
GERMAN MILLET. We secure our Big German Millet 
seed only from the section that produces Big Type German 
Millet. The best of the millets, it is very prolific and pro¬ 
duces an abundance of good hay when cut in the bloom 
stage. Makes a good catch crop following wheat or oats 
and its quick growth insures you of a large quantity of 
sweet, palatable and milk-producing hay. Is sometimes 
sown with early cowpeas at the rate of three pecks of 
millet to a bushel of cowpeas. Be sure to get the true 
type Big German Millet as it is not to be compared to 
other varieties. 
KOREAN LESPEDEZA. The finest of legumes for re¬ 
claiming worn out soil. A good drought resistant; it has 
won the distinction of being the best Summer Legume 
pasture which so far has been introduced in this country. 
It will stand heavy grazing from early summer until killed 
by frost. Is ideal in permanent pasture mixtures with 
Blue Grass, Orchard Grass or Red Top, Alsike and White 
Clover, and matures before smothering out of the fall 
GRASS SEEDERS

grasses. Makes an excellent hay, comparing favorably 
with Alfalfa in feeding value. No preparation of the seed¬ 
bed is necessary; it is adapted to any soil, and is at its 
best when other grasses and clovers are dormant. Sow 
20 to 25 pounds per acre alone, or 10 pounds per acre in 
pasture mixtures. Although an annual it reseeds itself 
where seed is allowed to mature. 
ATLAS SORGO. Produced more grain and forage in 1938 
than any other sorghum. Many crops produced 10 to 20 
tons per acre. The most popular of the grain sorghums. 
It is an enormous yielder of both forage and grain. The 
stalk and branches are both sweet and the grain is the 
most palatable of all the sorghums. It is the most valua¬ 
ble grain sorghum to grow because of its drought resist¬ 
ing qualities. 
CRIMSON CLOVER. Sow 20 pounds per acre. Makes 
an excellent green grazing crop during the winter and 
early spring. Very practical to sow with 
the fall seeding grains and is a splendid 
soil improving crop. 
SUDAN GRASS. A quick growing sum¬ 
mer hay grass, often yielding two or 
three cuttings a season. The entire plant 
is eaten by stock and well liked. More 
and finer hay is secured when the seed 
is sown broadcast and often produces 
four tons or more to the acre. As an 
emergency pasture crop Sudan Grass has 
few equals. Also used as ensilage and 
has about an equal value to corn silage. 
It is a very good 
drought resistant. 
Should be sown 
about two weeks 
after corn planting 
time, but can be 
sown up to the first 
week in July.
