MILLET 
TENNESSEE GROWN—The Tennessee cul- 
tivated millet is considered far superior 
to German millet grown in any other 
section, as it makes a larger growth and 
has larger heads and produces a crop 
of much better quality. Millet makes a 
good yield of feed, provided it is grown 
only on good land. It should not be 
grown on poor, thin soils. Sow broadcast 
from May to July, 50 lbs. to the acre. 
PEARL, or CAT-TAIL— Sometimes called 
Pencilaria, or Billion-Dollar Grass; this 
variety gives an enormous yield of very 
valuable forage. The plants grow, about 
12 feet high, but it may be cut at 3 feet, 
when it will thicken up, and may then 
be cut continuously until frost, giving 
abundant supply of rich green food. It 
is also valuable when used as a dry 
hay. It is usually sown in drills at the 
rate of about 5 lbs. to the acre, or if 
broadcast, about 25 Ibs.

ing crop. Plant in May or June in drills 
3¥2 to 4 feet apart; 2 to 3 pounds plant
