MILO MAIZE 
This Is the Milo Type 
This is also a member of the grain Sorghum 
family. The stalks are more slender than the 
Kaffir, but have no juice in them. Milo is 
much earlier than Kaffir. The seed heads are 
much more compact and egg shaped. Grain is 
widely used in chicken feeds. Where seasons 
are short or a quick maturing kind is desired, 
the Milo should be your selection. Milo will 
also grow with less moisture. Grain has good 
feeding value. 
Milo, Kaffir, Feterita and all similar grains 
should not be planted until after the ground 
is thoroughly warm. Two or three weeks after 
corn planting is best. Spring plowing 
warms the land better. Sow 8 lbs. 
for grain, 75 lbs. for hay. 
The feeding value of these 
various sorghum grains 
y is about equal. 
Milo and Feterita 
are more gen- 
erally grown 
throughout the 
northern part of the 
Corn Belt, because of 
earlier maturity, Our seed 
is very choice. See page 
32 for prices. 








STATE CERTIFIED 
ATLAS SORGO 
Atlas is considered by Agricultural Authorities to be one of the 
greatest forage crops developed in the last century. It is a cross 
between Sweet Sorgo and Blackhull Kaffir. Has made some sen- 
sational yields. One farmer reported nearly 23 tons green feed 
per acre. Yields 2 and 3 times as much as corn in dry seasons. 
Grows 10 to 12 feet tall. Is late in maturing seed. A great drought 
resister. 
A Very Valuable Crop 
Nothing better for ensilage. It has sweet juicy stalks. More 
palatable than corn. Live stock, especially cattle, will eat it 
stalks and all. They will leave most any kind of hay or feed for 
Atlas Sorgo. Requires warm soil. Plant about 10 to 20 days after 
you plant corn. Drill 8 to 12 pounds per acre for single row plant- 
ing. Sow 30 pounds solid drilled-or 40 pounds broadcast. Cut in 
fall before first heavy frost. Shock like corn.

Gentlemen: Regarding the Green Mountain 
Favorite Oats I bought from you I told you I got 
87 bushels to the acre but found out later that 
they weighed out almost 100 bushels to the acre. 
You see, the thresher gave me a big bushel.
