FIELD SEEDS 

ADAPTED TO THE SOUTHWEST 
Alfalfa 
COMMON CHILEAN — Native grown. 
The best hay crop and soil builder for 
the Southwest. We offer seed of high 
germination that is free from noxious 
weed seeds. For best results in the 
Pecos Valley, plant in September and 
April. In higher altitudes, plant from 
May to July. An application of Acid 
Phosphate will increase the yield of hay 
from 30 to 40 per cent. Plant 20 lbs. 
seed per acre. 
ARGENTINE ALFALFA—Similar to 
the above and has proven very satis- 
factory in the Pecos Valley. 
Sweet Clover 
YELLOW BLOSSOM BIENNIAL — A 
nitrogen producing, soil building pasture 
crop. Roots pentrate deep and into 
hardpan, then decompose to supply 
humas. Planting preferred in spring and 
fail but may be done at most any season. 
Plant 15 pounds. This crop will with- 
stand much drought and the extreme 
hot and cold weather. 
Beans 
MEXICAN PINTO—The field bean 
throughout New Mexico. Requires little 
moisture, will produce 500 to 1100 lbs. 
per acre. Can be planted in June, use 
25 ee seed per acre. We offer registered 
seed. 
Corn 
MEXICAN JUNE—Dependable in the 
Southwest due to drought resisting 
qualities and the heavy tight shucks that 
protect against worms and birds. Grown 
in some sections for the tall stalks which 
are very desireable for ensilage. 
STRAWBERRY or CALICO—One of our 
heaviest croppers. Large ears, medium 
soft kernels. A good all-purpose corn 
will require about 120 days to mature. 
HYBRID-JACQUES. Has been satisfac- 
tory in the Pecos Valley during the past 
five seasons. Drought resisting and a 
good yielder. Available in 80, 85, 90, 
95,100, 105, 110, 115 and 120 days to 
maturity. The 115 day is promising in 
the Southwest. 
Pop Corn 
GIANT YELLOW MUSHROOM — Does 
well in- the Pecos Valley and has been 
the most popular for a number of years. 
When popped, has a distinct flavor, no 
husks or hard centers and is cream- 
colored. 
Cotton 
ACALA 2815 — This season, we offer 
seed from some of the best cotton ever 
produced in the Pecos Valley. It pro- 
duced a larger boll, picked better (eas- 
iest of any), showed improved charac- 
ter, the staple was uniform (about 11%’) 
and it was earlier than the original 1064. 
This strain was developed for the Pecos 
Valley and the seed we offer was grown 
by Fred M. Nelson of Roswell. We of- 
fer both Registered and Certified Seed 
either in the lint or delinted. 
The original purpose for delinting cot- 
ton seed was to reduce lint borne dis- 
ease. However it has been found that 
delinted seed will germinate from 5 to 
7 days sooner, they can be planted more 
accurate, which eliminates much chop- 
ping. Begin planting April 10th with 
32 lbs. lint seed or 12 lbs. delinted 
seed per acre. % 
Sorghum Grains > 
ATLAS SORGO— Onur best ensilage crop. 
Will also make sorghum. The stalks are 
very sweet and often ten feet tall. Grain 
is of low feed value. 
PLAINSMAN MILO—A new milo of the 
combine type, a cross between double 
dwarf kafir and dwarf milo. Grown two 
years in the Pecos Valley and promises 
to be one of our heaviest yielders of good 
quality grain. Resistant to Pythium rot, 
grows 30 inches tall, grain resembles yel- 
low maize and matures in 108 days. 
CAPROCK MILO—A full blooded sister 
of the above. Grows 34 inches tall, 
requires 115 days to mature and the 
grain is a little deeper red than the 
Plainsman. Also grown two years in 
the Pecos Valley, will possibly out yield 
the Plainsman if planted on heavy soil 
and irrigated. 
MARTIN MILO—Has been known - to 
produce up to 120 bushels threshed grain 
per acre. Of the combine type, the short 
stalk has little or no feed value. It 
is planted in 18 or 22 inch rows using 
16 lbs. of seed per acre.
