Prof. Hansen's PROSO GRAIN MILLET 
Eggs are very close to the top of the list of food-for-victory items. Are 
your birds carrying their share of this extra production burden? 
We’d like to see you try Prof. Hansen’s Proso Grain Millet in your ration. 
This high protein feed is necessary for heavy production. It will keep your 
chickens healthy and will produce many more eggs. 
A Grain Crop in Sixty Days 
This Russian introduction yields fifty to eighty bushels per acre. It takes 
only sixty or seventy days to mature a grain crop. This is one. of the most 
versatile crops in the country and can be grown everywhere, on dry land and 
on irrigated land, low land or upland. It can be used for hay or mature for 
grain. It makes a wonderful chicken feed and it is also used for fattening 
turkeys and livestock. We counted 1,500 kernels on one plant of Proso. 
On dry land plant twenty pounds per acre, any time from May Ist to August 
Ist. In sections with better rainfall plant it at the rate of 30 lbs. per acre 
with a grain drill. Harvest the same as you do grain.
