FIELD SEED (Continued)

WHITE KAFFIR CORN 
Sow 10 lbs. for grain or 1 bu. (50 Ibs.) per acre for 
forage. 
Kaffir Corn has become more valuable every year because 
of its drought resisting qualities. Grows 4 to 5 feet high, very 
stocky and leafy; valuable alike for forage and grain. Plant 
from March to August, in rows 3 feet apart, drilling seed thinly 
like sorghum. If wanted principally for grain, let heads mature 
on the stalk and then the whole stalk may be cut for fodder 
after the seed heads have been cut. If wanted mainly for fod- 
der, cut down the stalks when the first seed heads begin to ap- 
pear, leaving 4 to 5 inches of stubble. From this stubble will 
spring a second growth, making an excellent crop for forage 
and a fair crop of grain. Stalks keep green and juicy to the 
last. For poultry feed and small grain it is unexcelled.

CHICKEN CORN—WHITE SEEDED (Egyptian Wheat) 
Sow 8 to 10 pounds per acre. 
This is a sorghum with extra large, loose, bushy heads, cov- 
ered thickly with small grains. If left standing, the grains drop 
off in a scattering manner, and the chickens gather them. If 
grown on a large scale, the large, well filled heads can be cut 
at maturity and fed to the poultry as desired. It is best to sow 
the seed thinly in three to four foot rows, leaving two to three 
plants to every three feet of row. If planted in small batches 
it is best to plant near the chicken houses so chickens can feed 
on the seeds as they fall. White Seeded Chicken Corn, with 
ease of growth, sure crop and heavy yields, will go a long way 
towards solving the poultry feed problem. The cheapest and 
best chicken feed you can grow. Plant from March to August.

CROTALARIA 
Sow 10 to 20 pounds per acre. 
Crotalaria is particularly desirable as a cover-crop for groves, 
truck and farm-lands, and does well on all kinds of soil except 
muck. It is a legume, thus adding a large amount of nitrogen 
to the soil. It makes a very profuse growth, furnishing an 
abundance of green material for humus. It can be mowed once 
a year, just as it starts to bloom; this will keep it from becom- 
ing too coarse. If cut 10 inches above the surface of the ground, 
the plant will produce the second growth and sufficient seed 
for reseeding the land the following year. 
Crotalaria should be sown broadcast from March to June, 
on well-prepared land, at the rate of 10 to 20 pounds of Spec- 
tabilis seed per acre, depending on how thick the coverage is 
desired, and harrowed lightly. 
Be sure to inoculate Crotalaria seed with Nitragin before 
planting. By so doing you will not only have the assurance 
of a surer stand, but a better crop, and the succeeding crop 
will have the benefit of a larger amount of nitrogen stored 
in the Crotalaria roots. (See page 47.) 
Crotalaria Spectabilis. This vigorous growing, long-leaved 
variety is not as fibrous as others, the growth is much heav- 
ier, and the stems are hollow. As a result, it can be plowed 
under easier and it rots much quicker. The seed matures early 
and uniformly, making it a sure and heavy seeder. Spectabilis 
does well on high ground, but is best adapted to the better 
grades of sandy soils. Leaves, stems and seed of this Crotalaria 
plant, green or dry, are poisonous to poultry and livestock.

CATTAIL OR PEARL MILLET 
Sow 8 to 10 pounds per acre. 
This is one of the best yielders of green forage and continues 
to grow and produce through the entire season if cut frequent- 
ly enough to prevent its going to seed. A tropical plant mak- 
ing an enormous growth. Relished by all kinds of stock, and 
they eat it greedily. No plant will go further towards solving 
the forage problem in Florida. Plant in early spring as soon 
as frost danger is past in March, and can be planted from then 
on until September 1. Sow thinly in rows three feet apart.

The Standard of Quality in Florida for Over 30 Years 
GOLDEN MILLET (Formerly called German Millet) 
Sow 1 bushel (50 lbs.) per acre. 
Golden Millet is an important hay crop, relished by horses 
and cattle. Seed thickly, not less than one bushel per acre. 
For an early hay crop plant in March and April. For 
a second crop plant in July and August. It matures in 
from six to eight weeks after seeding. Cut while in bloom, 
before the seed hardens in the head, because after that the hay 
quality decreases. For a large yielding, nutritious, quick grow- 
ing hay crop there is nothing better than Golden Millet.

OATS 
Sow 5 pecks (40 Ibs.) per acre in drills; broadcast 2 to 
21% bu. per acre. 
A bushel weighs 32 pounds. 
Plant in drills 1% feet apart and cover seed 2 to 3 inches. 
deep. If the seed is broadcast, use tooth harrow. The best 
time to plant oats in Florida is October and November, but 
can be planted to January. Land should receive 200 to 300 lbs. 
per acre of complete fertilizer, such as 3-8-5 at planting, and 
a top dressing of from 100 to 200 lbs. of Nitrate of Soda, or 
its equivalent, in January or February. 
Coker’s Fulgrain Strain 6. (A new, more uniform strain 
with higher yield record.) (120 days.) This is the best 
all around, general purpose oat for Florida. It combines early 
maturity with high yield, along with a stiff, storm resistant 
straw and a high degree of resistance to smut, leaf and crown 
rust. The heads are long and the grains are beautiful, plump, 
heavy and of high feeding value. An extremely high yielder 
of high quality grain. As a result of years of breeding and 
selection, this oat is remarkably uniform in type and appearance.

Not prepaid, 8 lbs. (pk.) 55c; 32 Ibs. (bu.) $1.85. 
Coker’s Victorgrain Strain 3. (A new, high yielding 
strain.) (125 days.) The highest producing strain of this 
leading variety, possessing stiffness of straw, high resistance 
to leaf rust and resistance to certain types of smut. This va- 
riety will not do well on poor soils or in areas where late spring 
droughts are common. An excellent medium early oat for the 
better soils of central and north Florida.

Quincy No. 1 (new). (130 days.) This new variety developed 
at the North Florida Experiment Station in Quincy, Fla., is 
a red oat, highly resistant to rust and immune to smut, and 
has very full, plump kernels that weigh approximately 38 lbs. 
per measured bushel. It is rather late in maturity, which would 
be a serious disadvantage as a grain crop on sandy land, due 
to spring drought cutting the grain yield in central and south 
Florida, where, because of its leafy early growth it is prin- 
cipally used as a winter grazing oat.

PEANUTS 
Sow 1 bushel per acre. 
In addition to the crop of nuts for hogs, peanuts yield a large 
quantity of nutritious dry forage. Florida Runner Peanuts 
are by far the best when grown to fatten hogs, as they can be 
left in the ground until eaten, but not so with the Valencia 
or Spanish Peanuts, because they must be harvested as soon 
as matured, or they will sprout and come up during the first 
wet spell. 
It is better to shell the seed that is to be planted. If planted 
in corn, a bushel will plant 4 acres, but where planted solid 
it requires a bushel of seed per acre, in 3-foot rows, dropping 
seeds in hills a foot apart. Plant from March to July. For 
best results inoculate peanuts with Nitragin. (See page 47.)
