MISCE3I_I_ANE 
SORGHUM for FOR/VGE 
RECLEANED SEED—FREE FROM TRASH AND DIRT 
Sow alone or mixed with cowpeas. 
Planted in drill, use 8 to 10 pounds per 
acre, or about a bushel (50 pounds) 
broadcast for forage. Sown broadcast 
with peas, use about bushel (25 
pounds) with one bushel of peas. It 
pays to fertilize sorghum heavily, for 
increased yield. 
585 Early Orange 
Larger than Amber maturing 10 days 
later. Not good for syrup but used for 
forage. Postpaid—Lb., 25c; 5 Lbs., 85c; 
10 Lbs., $1.50; 20 Lbs., $2.50. 
586 Early Amber 
Early Southern variety grown almost 
exclusively for forage crop, either alone 
or broadcast with peas. Not good for 
syrup. Lb., 25c; 5 Lbs., 85c; 10 Lbs., 
$1.50; 20 Lbs., $2.50. 
583 Red Top Sorghum 
Later, larger growth and better drought 
resister than either of above. Not good 
for syrup but fine for forage. Postpaid 
—Lb., 25c; 5 Lbs., 85c; 10 Lbs., $1.50. 
510 CROTALARIA 
SPECTABILIS —Great cover crop for 
turning under, especially in the lower 
South. It is not recommended for hay 
because livestock must be trained to eat 
it, but great for fruit and truck grow¬ 
ers, not being a host for pumpkin bugs. 
Requires no fertilization, no liming, and 
may be grown without cultivation. In a 
dry spring better results may be had in 
rows and cultivating about twice. For 
maximum growth, broadcast 10 to 15 
pounds per acre on well-prepared land 
when frost danger is past, harrowing in 
lightly, while soil is moist. 
Scarified Seeds—Lb., 25c; 5 Lbs., $1.00. 
513 EARLY CROTALARIA 
Early strain, also especially fine for 
broadcasting before last cultivation in 
corn or cotton. 
Scarified—Lb., 25c; 5 Lbs., $1.00. 
MILLET FOR SUMMER FORAGE 
1188 PEARL OR CAT-TAIL MILLET—Will grow 10 to 12 feet high, but for the 
greatest amount of green feed it should be cut when 3 to 4 feet high. It will then 
stool out enormously. ^ Giye three or four cuttings a season, and keep on growing 
right up to frost. It is highly nutritious. It is a warm weather plant, and should 
not be planted till the ground is thoroughly warm, otherwise the seeds will not 
germinate. Plant 5 pounds to the acre, in drills 3 feet apart. 
Price—ILb., 25c; 5 lbs., 85c; 10 lbs., $1.50; 15 lbs., $2.00 
1185-—TENNESSEE GERMAN MILLET (Big Headed Type)—German Millet makes 
a quickly grown, easily cured and large yielding, nutritious hay crop. It comes so 
quickly that it can be sown after wheat, oats or other early crops are harvested, 
^i^^d leaves the land clean and in fine mechanical condition for the following crop. 
Millet should be cut when coming to flower, as after that stage the woody fibre 
forms in the stem and the hay is hard and unpalatable. Cut at the proper time it 
makes a splendid hay. As a summer catch-crop, it has few equals, for it makes 
its crop in about sixty days, discing and harrowing wheat or oat land being the 
only preparation necessary. 
.. . ^ $1-25; 15 lbs., $1,75 
514 CROTALARIA INTERMEDIA 
This variety makes hay that is relished 
by live stock. Other varieties listed are 
not edible. Heavy producer growing well 
on average soils. 
Scarified—Lb., 35c; 5 Lbs., $1.25.

1105—DALLIS GRASS (Paspalum Dilatatum)—This grass 
furnishes hay or pasture all the year in the far South. How¬ 
ever, in the cotton belt it furnishes two hay cutting of fine 
quality, the second cutting heavier and finer than the first. 
It stan-ds light frosts and does well on most any soil with 
plenty of moisture except dry sandy soil. It stands close 
grazing remarkably well and grows from early spring until 
killing frost. Sow in March and April, earlier in the lower 
South, on well-prepared land. Plant 8 pounds of seed per 
acre. 
Price—1 lb., 45c; 5 lbs., $1.75; 10 lbs., $3.25; 15 lbs., $4.50 
LESPEDEZA 
THE GREAT SOUTHERN SOIL BUILDER 
505 Common Lespedeza 
Does well over a wider territory than other varieties— 
Mexico north to southern Indiana, Illinois 
and Iowa. It is a standard hay and pasture plant, getting 
a itand and reseeding itself each year, except on very sandy 
lands. Even on sands it does fairly well unless they are 
very dry. Pound, 30c; 10 lbs., $2.50; 25 lbs., $5.00. 
SelecLed strain of Common Japanese, originated by Tenn. 
512 Tennessee 76 Lespedeza 
Experiment Station. It has erect growth, is of later maturity 
and produces heavy yields of hay. It does well in the cotton 
belt also and seems to be preferable to Kobe in the northern 
parts of the Gulf States and is especially popular in western 
lennessee and parts of N. C. 
Pound, 35c, 10 lbs., $2.00, Postpaid. 
^ GRASS—Carpet Grass is one of the most 
valuable pasture grasses for the lower South. It grows on 
poor sandy soils better than Bermuda and does well on most 
any soil with a fair amount of moisture. It spreads rapidly, 
stands closest grazing and heavy trampling. For lawns and 
^ courses it will make a heavy sod and the closer it is 
cut the better it grows. It also does well in pastures with 
^.Lsur Clover and Japan Clover, these giving all year grazing. 
t ow lu pounds per acre for pasture.
