OPEN POLLINATED ENSILAGE TYPES O 
IMPROVED LEAMING 
The Leaming is the oldest distinct variety of corn, having been 
originated in 1826. It is a standard yellow corn, well adapted to 
northern and central Illinois and the most of Iowa, and similar lati- 
tudes. In fact, it is grown with success in southern Wisconsin and 
is in great demand in the North for silage. Not quite as large and 
not quite as late as Reid’s Yellow Dent. f

GIANT RED COB ENSILAGE 
A very large pure white corn with red cob. It grows the largest. 
doubtless, of any variety of corn and is the favorite for planting in 
the North for a large growth of green fodder. Does not ordinarily 
mature ears in the North.

REID'S YELLOW DENT 
Reid’s Yellow Dent is doubtless more largely grown throughout 
the Corn Belt than all other varieties of Yellow Corn combined, It 
is of a light golden color; ears long and solid, shelling 88 per cent 
grain and often better. It is the favorite for exhibition purposes. 
Because of its very large growth it is a very profitable variety to 
plant in the North for silo and in a very favorable season the ears 
will fully mature. It will make a larger tonnage for the silo than 
anything else we offer except Giant Red Cob Ensilage but Red Cob 
will not ordinarily give you ears.

SUDAN GRASS emer Vil CEs

_ Sudan Grass is proving a mighty valuable crop 
for Wisconsin. Sudan Grass is a good emergency 
hay crop. No crop quite equals Sudan Grass for a 
Here are five reasons why Sudan Grass is of such 
First—Yield. It makes a heavy yield of hay, 
outranking all the millets in yield per acre. Yields 
of two to four tons of cured hay per acre from 
one cutting are common in Wisconsin. Two cuttings 
x Quality. It makes a better quality hay | 
than millet. It makes wonderful hay grown with 
Third—Late Sowing. It can be sown late, after 
or when corn 
fails. Sow any time from May 20th to June 20th, 
or even a little later. Do not sow too early. It is 
if put in too 
early the seed will rot. Sow not less than 35 pounds 
of seed per acre and a drill is better than a seeder 
Fourth—Drought Resistant. It withstands long 
periods of drought continuing to grow when most 
Fifth—Quack Killer. It is valuable as a smother 
crop, especially for quack and Canada thistle. 
In addition to all the above five good qualities 
and -most important of all Sudan Grass can be pas- 
tured, After the hay crop is taken off it makes a 
fine late pasture as it grows up again quickly. Or, 
it ean be pastured all the season instead of being 
cut for hay. It is also great for late pasture. Sown

A seed treatment that serves as a protection to the seed against rotting 
in cold damp ground. A better stand of plants produces an increased yield 
at harvest time. Easily applied by mixing dry at the rate of two ounces 
to a bushel of seed, Small quantities can be dusted in an old milk can 
by placing seed in the can and shaking thoroughly for three to four min- 
utes. All containers should be thoroughly clean and dried before and 
after using. Seed treated before planting time should be stored in a warm 
dry place. Prices: Lb., 75c; by mail, 80c; 5 lbs., $3.00; by mail, $3.25. By 
freight: 25-lb. drum, $12.50; 100-lb. drum, $45.00. 
“WONDER 
MILLET 
THE BEST MILLET, 
White Wonder is the best of all the 
millets in our judgment. 
It produces more tons of hay per acre 
than any other millet. 
In spite of the very large growth the 
foliage is thick, with numerous’ broad 
leaves so that it furnishes a high grade 
of millet hay. 
It is earlier than either German or Com-
