imported because of its drought resistance. In yield it excels cane, millet, 
kaffir and similar crops. Sudan is a free stooler and makes a fine quality of 
hay. Being a warm weather crop it should not be sown till corn planting

will give more milk. Your horses and mules will be kept in good flesh. Your 
cattle will fatten on it. It will take no more fertility from the land than a crop of oats. The

Highest Quality New Crop Seed 
We believe our seed is the finest grade, new crop, recleaned seed. It has strong 
germination. You cannot buy better seed. Our Sudan Grass is a wonderful bargain. 
Be sure to sow some at this low price: Provide yourself with pasture that will flourish 
in the hot dry summer months. Use it for hay or green feed. It is one of the best 
money-making crops you can grow. The use of Sudan has been increasing rapidly in 
recent years and at our present astonishingly low bargain prices it will certainly sell fast. 
So easy to grow, so enormously productive, so highly palatable to live stock and such a 
phenomenal drought resister. Put some acres to work on Sudan and make fine extra profits.

Smicksburg, Pa. 
Gentlemen: I am favorable to your seed for two 
reasons, first on account of the big savings and 
price on the high grade field seeds, and second the 
purity seems to be unexcelled by any other that I 
have ever bought. Other farmers here have used 
your seed with excellent results.
