Better Quality Makes Better Bargains 
Something New is Born 
Many crops are being improved and new varieties 
are being developed by crossing related varieties of 
crops. The object, of course, is to get the most de- 
sirable characteristics of each into the new line. 
Sometimes the results of such work are disappoint- 
ing. Often there is a decided improvement. Once in 
a while a new and sensationally better crop is de- 
veloped. Such a crop is ‘‘Sweet” Sudan. 
Different and Better 
Here is something so new and different and so su- 
perior to the old-regular Sudan Grass that we pre- 
dict it will replace it in a few years. It was made 
by crossing Sudan on Leoti. This Leoti is a heavy 
yielding, sweet juicy sorghum that_has high resist- 
ance against disease and seed shattering. This new 
crop has the best characteristics of both parents, 
It grows very much like ordinary Sudan. It stools 
even more freely and grows taller.-The leaves are 
a little broader. Think what that means in the way 
of yields. 
Enormous Production 
This crop is so new that widespread yield reports 
are not as yet available. We do know that regular 
Sudan will produce up to 10 tons of hay per acre. 
Sweet Sudan with its free stooling, taller growth 
and broader leaves should outyield it at least 30%. 
You can cut Sweet Sudan over a long period and 
get good hay. Even when taken for a seed crop it 
still makes good feed. The seed, by the way, is very 
easily distinguished from ordinary Sudan. This en- 
ables any farmer to tell it from Johnson Grass and 
thus avoid getting seed containing that noxious 
weed. That one reason alone makes it very desir- 
able in southern states. The high feeding value, de- 
licious flavor and big yields give you a combination 
that’s hard to equal. 
Palatable Fast Growing Pasture 
You know that when livestock is particularly fond 
of a certain feed they will eat more of it and make 
faster and usually more economical gains.,Feeding 
tests show without a question of a doubt that Sweet 
Sudan’is a very delicious and palatable grass. When 
regular and Sweet Sudan are sown side by side in 
a field the cattle will eat Sweet Sudan down to the 
ground while they will only nip at the regular 
Sudan and it will be growing to a height of a foot

or more right next to Sweet Sudan. Even when 
planted in alternate rows the cattle will find and 
eat the Sweet Sudan first every time. 
You can imagine what a carrying capacity a crop 
has that will yield over 10 tons of hay per acre. It 
is a warm weather crop and you should not sow it 
until the ground is thoroughly warm. This would 
be corn planting time or after. Then it sprouts rap- 
idly and after it is up it will grow an inch or more 
a day. You can really put the livestock on a field 
of Sweet Sudan and you can pasture it just as safely 
as Regular Sudan (see page 10). 
Provides a Long Season 
Sweet Sudan is a little later in maturity. It will not 
mature a seed crop as fast as the regular but will 
maintain its high quality feeding value for hay and 
pasture longer because it is a little later. 
Sweet Sudan grows best during hot weather and 
thus. provides you with this palatable, juicy food 
when many grasses have become dormant because 
of the heat. There is hardly a farm but what will 
make more money by having some Sweet Sudan 
available on it for pasture or hay. If desired for 
seed in northern states we do not advise pasturing 
or taking a hay crop. Otherwise you can pasture it 
a while and then take a hay crop. Take two or three 
hay crops if you do not pasture or pasture all the 
time after it is 8 to 10 inches high until frost. 
Seed Scarce Yet Cost Reasonable 
You can get a very good stand by sowing only ten 
pounds per acre, which would make it cost only 
around $1.80 per acre. You will, however, get a finer 
growth by putting on more seed per acre. Fifteen 
pounds is only $2.70 an acre and that is a low seed- 
ing cost for a crop that is so new and scarce. We 
suggest drilling in the seed at corn planting time 
or after, not before. Cover seed about one inch deep. 
The seed we have is new crop thoroughly recleaned, 
high germination, guaranteed free of Johnson Grass 
and to be satisfactory to you in every respect. We 
have just one carload of this seed and we urge you 
to place your orders for it early even though you 
will not plant it till late, 
Grow this new, different, better, heavy producing, 
sweet, juicy, palatable grass this year. Show your 
neighbors something superior and make bigger 
profits for yourself.
