f 
Bearded Barley 
Makes excellent pasture and yields from 40 
to 60 bushels per acre. We sell immense quan- 
tities of this splendid variety each fall. Barley 
should be planted at the rate of about two 
bushels per acre. Ground Barley makes won- 
derful feed. Not prepaid, pk., 50c; bu., $1.60. 
Ask for prices in larger quantities. 
Russian Sunflower 
The seed is highly valued by farmers and 
poultry breeders who have tried it. Single 
heads measure 12 to 20 inches in diameter and 
contain large quantities of seed, and can be 
raised much cheaper than corn. This is a 
profitable crop for the farmer to grow, as there 
is a big demand for the seed to mix in poultry 
feeds. Five to ten pounds will plant an acre. 
Lb., 30c; 2 lbs., 50c, postpaid. Not prepaid, 10 
lbs., $1.50. Ask for prices in larger quantities.

NICHOLSON’S HEAVY YIELDING SEED OATS 
HOGS IN A FIELD OF DWARF ESSEX RAPE 
Dwarf Essex Rape 
The use of Rape has grown in a few years 
from a few thousand pounds of seed used, to 
thousands of tons of seed per year. Rape is one 
of the most valuable forage plants, its many 
uses being considered, that has ever been in- 
iroduced into the United States. Until lately, 
Rape has been grown mostly for sheep pasture, 
but in recent years people have learned that 
it is equally valuable as a forage crop for cat- 
tle, hogs and poultry. The young tender leaves 
of Rape make fine greens for table use and are 
preferred by some to mustard and other greens. 
To those of our customers who are not familiar 
with Rape, we will say that it grows something 
like a cabbage plant before the cabbage be- 
gins to head up; however, the Rape makes a 
larger plant, often 18 inches to 2 feet high, 
under favorable weather conditions and on 
good soil Rape will produce from 10 to 25 tons 
of green forage per acre. It can be grown in 
the fall as it stands our winters without killing; 
it can also be sown in the spring with good 
results. Sow in drills at the rate of 5 to 8 
pounds per acre. Lb., 50c; 2 lbs., 90c, postpaid. 
Ask for prices in larger quantities.

ate the value of Rye as a winter pasture crop. 
Sow at the rate of 114 to 14% bushels per acre. 
FALL OR WINTER. Rye has long been recog- 
nized as one of our best grains for winter 
pasture. The seed we offer is all thoroughly 
recleaned and tested for germination. Pk., 50c;
