Dry Land Grain and Forage 
Seeds— (Continued) 
Sweet Sorghums 
CULTURE—For forage crops, sow 50 to 75 pounds per 
acre; for grain 5 to 6 pounds, in rows and cultivate the same 
as corn. Forage is very palatable to stock. 
BLACK AMBER CANE—Is the best known and in 
the favorite on account of its earliness and re- 
sistant to drought. 
RED AMBER CANE—Matures later than Black Am- 
ber, is taller and more leafy than the Black Amber. 
MIXED CANE—This is valuable as a forage crop. 
Do not plant for a seed crop. 
RED OR KANSAS ORANGE—A heavy-yielding vari- 
ety grown for forage and silage. It is rather late 
in maturing seed, as it takes from 100 to 110 days. 
LEOTI RED—A highly recommended sorghum for 
Colorado conditions. The stalks are very leafy, an 
excellent variety for forage and silage. 
RED TOP OR SUMAC CANE—Very desirable for for- 
age as the stalks are sweet and very leafy. The 
seed shells out clean like the grain sorghums and 
is better for feed than other varieties of Cane. 
COES SORGO—Is a Kafir-headed sorgo with a long, 
compact head and fine sweet stem, high in sugar 
contents. Suckers profusely making large quanti- 
ties of fine leafy feed. The grain is equal in feed- 
ing value to Kafir. 
ATLAS SORGO—Is a large late forage sorghum de- 
veloped by the Hays, Kansas, Experiment Station. 
It is drought resistant, produces big yields under 
favorable conditions and is similar to Kansas 
Orange in growth habit. It is a sweet Sorghum 
and will produce a good tonnage of forage in this 
section. 
Any Wariety Postpaid (5 lbs. 75c) (10 Ibs. $1.25) 
(25 Ibs. $2.50).

Vetch 
HAIRY, OR SAND—An excellent plant for a winter 
cover crop to prevent leaching; also for forage 
and fertilizing. If sown in August or September 
it will make a good crop of forage the following 
spring. It is quite hardy and very seldom winter 
kills unless planted on wet, heavy soil. It is being 
used extensively for piowing under; also for dairy 
stock and poultry pasture. Sow 60 to 90 pounds 
per acre. 
Postpaid (5 Ibs. $1.25) (10 Ibs. $2.25) (25 Ibs. $5.00). 
SPRING, OR TARES—Similar in growth to Sand 
Vetch, but for spring planting only. 
Postpaid (5 lbs. $1.00) (10 Ibs. $1.75) (25 Ibs. $4.00). 
Use Nitragin Culture “C” for 
Vetch and Peas; Culture “D” for 
Beans; Culture “L” for Lespedesa 
and Culture “S” for Soy Beans.

WITH 

The Original Legume tnoculator 
Dwarf Essex Rape 
An excellent forage crop for Sheep and Hogs, be- 
longs to the cabbage family. It produces a mass of 
broad, smooth leaves which are greatly relished 
by Sheep and Hogs. It can be pastured off and 
when stock is removed, if not eaten too close, it 
will grow up again and give a second crop. It does 
best on rather moist land, but will do well in any 
good soil. The seed is usually sown broadcast, using 
about 5 pounds per acre. Sow from the first to the 
middle of August. If sown broadcast on corn ground 
after the last cultivation it makes .good pasture 
after the corn is removed. 
Postpaid (5 Ibs. $1.50) (10 Ibs. $2.75) (25 Ibs. $6.25). 
Field or Stock Peas 
Field Peas are an important class of Legumes ané 
should be more generally planted. Valuable for 
hay crop or fertilizer. Field Peas are usually grown 
with Oats, for hay, a combination equal in feeding 
value to clover hay. They contain more digestible 
crude protein and fat than Alfalfa and Corn. When 
grown with oats, they are threshed together, and 
easily separated with a fanning mill after threshing. 
Drill the Peas in four inches deep, as early as the 
ground can be worked at the rate of 90 to 100 pounds 
per acre. Then, 2 or 3 weeks later, sow the Oats, 
drilling it in the other way, 60 pounds per acre. If 
the oats are sown with the peas, they grow too 
rapidly and check or smother the growth of the peas. 
COLORADO STOCK PEAS (White)—Are extensively 
grown in the mountain districts, are very hardy 
and if mixed with oats or other grains, make very 
nutritious hay. If permitted to mature, make ex- 
cellent feed for fattening sheep or hogs. 
Postpaid (5 Ibs. 75c) (10 Ibs. $1.25) (25 Ibs. $2.75). 
COLORADO STOCK PEAS (Blackeyes)—Similar to 
the White Colorado Stock Peas, except each pea 
is marked with a small black eye. They provide 
good forage and hay and are valuable as a soil- 
age crop. 
Postpaid (5 Ibs. 75c) (10 Ibs. $1.25) (25 Ibs. $2.75). 
MARROWFAT (Large White)—A commercial sort 
grown extensively for dry use. Vines 4 feet tall. 
Seeds large, round, creamy white. Very productive. 
Postpaid (5 Ibs. $1.00) (10 Ibs. $1.60) (25 Ibs. $3.50). 
MARROWFAT (Black Eye)—Similar to the White 
Marrowfat excepting that the seeds have a black 
eye. 
Postpaid (5 Ibs. $1.00) (10 Ibs. $1.60) (25 Ibs. $3.50). 
SOUTHERN BLACK-EYE PEAS—The dry as are 
excellent for table use, and find ready sale during 
the winter. They are very hardy and prolific. Vines 
make excellent forage or hay. This pea has proven 
& great success in the dry land or non-irrigated 
districts of the west. Its roots seem to penetrate 
deeper and stand drought and heat better. Espe- 
cially adapted to hot dry non-irrigated districts. 
Postpaid (5 Ibs. 80c) (10 Ibs. $1.50) (26 Ibs. $3.50). 
WHIP-POOR-WILL COW PEAS—The vines when 
cut green, make the best of hay. When permitted 
to ripen, make an excellent table pea. 
Postpaid (5 Ibs. 80c) (10 Ibs. $1.50) (25 Ibs. $3.50). 
Sunflower 
Quite extensively grown for feeding. Sow in rows 
3 to 3% feet apart and thin to a foot apart in the 
rows. Treat the same as corn. Use 10 to 12 pounds 
of seed per acre. Sunflower are often used to mix 
with corn when filling a silo. It is claimed that 
the mixture makes a better ensilage than pure corn. 
MAMMOTH RUSSIAN—The variety commonly used 
to produce seed and for filling silos. The heads 
are often one foot across and are filled with 
striped seed which makes most exeellent feed 
for poultry.
