FOR HAY 
AND GRAIN 
Plant Soy Beans and maintain the 
fertility of the soil on your farm. 
THEY ARE THE BEST NITRO- 
GEN GATHERERS OF ANY OF 
THE LEGUMES, will thrive on 
acid soils, and being annuals will 
work into any system of crop rota- 
tion. 
More Soy Beans are being planted 
each year, and this is proof that they 
are A PROFITABLE CROP TO 
GROW. They yield large crops of 
grain—sometimes as much as 40 
bushels per acre. 
You can always dispose of your 
crop as THERE IS A REGULAR 
MARKET FOR SOY BEANS. 
The hay is EQUAL TO AL- 
FALFA in feeding value. 
Soy Beans can be broadcast or 
planted in rows and cultivated. Plant 
1% inches deep; 40 to 60 pounds per 
acre. You can plant as late as June 
15, and even if they do not get ripe, 
will make a good crop of hay.

MUKDEN SOY BEANS 

MUKDEN SOY BEANS: This variety is earlier than either Manchu or 
Illini, maturing seed in about 100 days. The stout, bushy plants grow about 
36 inches tall and are literally covered with pods. It does not shatter as 
easily as other varieties and you do not lose so many beans when threshing. 
Yields about as much as the later varieties and on account of its short grow- 
ing season should be planted in the Northern part of the Soy Bean territory.

100 Ibs., $3.25. ‘ 
MANCHU SOY BEANS: Manchu 
is the best known and most popular 
variety of soy beans in the North- 
west. It is medium early in season, 
early enough to fully mature dry 
beans under ordinary conditions and 
large enough to be of real value. The 
dry beans mature in about 105 days. 
Towa farmers report as high as 38 bu. 
per acre yield. They can be cut with 
a grain binder and threshed with an 
ordinary threshing machine by re- 
ducing the speed of the cylinder to 
one-half and taking out part of the 
concaves. 
ILLINI SOY BEANS: This variety 
was developed at the Illinois Experi- 
ment Station. It grows a little taller 
than Manchu (about 40 inches) giv- 
ing a heavier yield and is nearly as 
early, maturing a seed crop in about 
110 days. 
Soy beans as a hay crop are higher 
in protein content than alfalfa hay 
or field peas. An excellent hay for 
dairy cattle. z 
Illini Soy Beans are recommended 
for eating purposes, and are a very 
good substitute for Navy Beans.

NITRAGIN INOCULATION for SOY BEANS: Soy Beans should be 
inoculated before planting. Inoculation may DOUBLE YOUR YIELD 
of both hay and grain.

Dear Sirs: 
I have used your garden seeds and spring wheat, also barley seed, and 
was always very well satisfied with everything. I will also tell you of the 
wonderful crop of oats I had this year from your Gopher seed oats which I 
ordered from you. Had six acres and threshed 609 bushel. If you want to, 
you can publish this in your new catalog, as I think it was a wonderful crop.

MILLET FOR HAY—GER- 
MAN, SIBERIAN, AND JAPA- 
NESE are the best, sometimes yield- 
ing 4 or 5 tons of good hay per acre. 
They can be planted up to July 15th 
and still produce a crop. If you find 
you are going to be short of feed, 
PLANT MILLET. 
MILLET FOR GRAIN— 
WHITE SIBERIAN PROSO AND 
EARLY FORTUNE OR RED 
PROSO are the Millets to plant for 
grain. They yield up to 50 or 60 
bushels per acre, and it only takes 
60 or 70 days to mature a seed crop. 
The large, shiny red or white seed 
make WONDERFUL CHICKEN 
FEED or can be ground and fed to 
any kind of livestock. 
Asa Yerian of Hamilton, 
Mont., in his field of MILLET 
GERMAN MILLET: It grows from 3 to 6 feet tall, and makes excellent 
hay for dairy cattle. ‘The seed is very good chicken feed. Few grasses or 
plants will make the enormous yields of hay and seed produced by German | 
Millet. Four or five tons of hay and 60 or 70 bushels of seed per acre have 
been reported. It may be planted as late as July 1st and still mature. Plant 
25 pounds per acre. 
10 Ibs., 55c; 25 Ibs., $1.10; 50 Ibs. (1 bu.), $1.90; 100 Ibs., $3.50. 
SIBERIAN MILLET: A wonderfully productive hay millet. It never 
grows as coarse as the German, making a better quality hay. It grows from 
3 to 4 feet tall and is the earliest of the hay millets. Plant 30 pounds © 
per acre. 
10 Ibs., 55c; 25 Ibs., $1.10; 50 Ibs. (1 bu.), $1.90; 100 Ibs., $3.50. 
JAPANESE MILLET or BILLION DOLLAR GRASS: You can get 
two good cuttings of leafy, nutritious hay from Japanese Millet. Even if it 
is not cut until it is 6 or 7 feet tall, the hay will not be very coarse, and is 
superior to corn fodder. It does fairly well on high land but is best on lower 
land where the moisture is plentiful. The seed is of very little value for 
feed. Plant 20 pounds per acre. 
10 Ibs., 70c; 25 Ibs., $1.35; 50 Ibs., $2.50; 100 Ibs., $4.75.

A wonderful crop of Millet on a South Dakota farm 

PROFESSOR HANSEN’S WHITE SIBERIAN PROSO: Yields up to 
50 or 60 BUSHELS PER ACRE have been made where the soil and 
moisture conditions were favorable. 
It will STAND A LOT OF DROUTH and still produce a fair crop of 
grain which is about EQUAL TO WHEAT for poultry and livestock feed. 
Proso forms the principal article of diet for millions of people in Russia 
and China, and can now be purchased in many stores in America. Its 
greatest value is as a catch crop, one that can be planted as late as July 15th 
and still mature a crop of grain and hay. Height 2 to 3 feet. Plant 20 
pounds per acre.

EARLY FORTUNE—RED HOG or RED PROSO: This extra early Red 
Proso is a very heavy yielder of grain, which ripens while the leaves are still — 
green. You can harvest your grain crop and still have good quality hay. — 
Plant at the rate of 20 pounds per acre as late as July 15th.
