As this catalogue goes to press we 
are unable to quote prices on field 
seeds in bushel or bag lots as prices 
for spring delivery on field seeds are 
not available as this catalogue is being 
set up for printing. We, therefore, 
are only quoting prices on small a- 
mounts and if you are interested in 
large quantities of field or garden seed, 
we will appreciate your inquiry on 
any seed you may need and will be 
glad to quote you either f.o.b. San An- 
tonio or delivered to your shipping 
point. 

ALFALFA 
15 to 20 lbs. per acre. 
COMMON (Chilean) — Plants erect, 1-3 ft. 
high, with many branched fine leafy stems. 
It may be cut three to five times during the 
year, yielding high quality hay and may be 
used for pasture. Lb. 3; not postpaid. 
HAIRY PERUVIAN — Is particularly rec- 
ommended for our own State of Texas. As 
compared with common alfalfa, Hairy Peru- 
vian is more upright, less branched and has 
fewer and somewhat coarser stems and small- 
er crown. It is also characterized by rapid 
growth, large amount of leaves, quick re- 
covery after cutting and ability to make 
rapid growth in cool weather after ordinary 
alfalfa has ceased growing. Lb. ; 
CLOVER 
CALIFORNIA BUR CLOVER — So ealled 
because the seeds in pods which have short 
spines or burs. It maintains the soil fertility 
and succeeds best on soils relatively high in 
lime, moist and well drained. The trailing 
leafy stems are readily grazed by all live- 
stock. For best results plant hulled and 
searified seed. i 
MELILOTUS INDICA — Yellow flowering. 
Chiefly used and best adapted as a cover crop 
to mainatin good soil structure and fertility. 
Inexpensive to sow and the best sweet clover 
to plant with oats. Matures early at the same 
time as oats. Plants spreading when young, 
erect 114 to 214 ft. when mature. Stems fine, 
leafly, woody but not tough. Lb. 5 
BIENNIAL WHITE SWEET — Grows two 
years from one _ seeding. Makes a large 
growth the first year, but a much heavier 
growth the second due to its extensive root 
system. It’s a great soil builder. Relished 
by all kinds of livestock. No other pasture 
crop measures up to the summer and fall 
grazing furnished by this plant. Should be 
in all pasture mixtures. Here in the South 
two cuttings of hay are had the first year, 
and one cutting and a seed crop the second 
or grazing entirely, if preferable. Plant dur- 
ing spring and early fall at the rate of 15 
to 20 pounds per acre, if sown alone. Lb. a 
HUBAM — A most valuable annual legume 
crop for grazing and soil improvement. It 
makes rapid and luxuriant growth valuable 
for grazing, an important cover crop and 
soil builder. Can be plowed under with ad- 
vantages when either young or mature. Used 
also for silage and very desirable for bees. 
b. 3 
EMERALD SWEET — It branches profuse- 
ly from the crown, is many and fine stemmed, 
leafy green seeded and is shorter than Hubam. 
Especially valuable as a pasture or hay crop, 
recovering more rapidly from close grazing 
than Hubam. Lb. 
SEED CORN 
OPEN POLLINATED VARIETIES 
SURE CROPPER CORN — A truly remark- 
able drought resisting power. As old as is 
the history of corn growing in the South and 
Southwest is the search for a corn able to 
hold up and make a crop on the scanty 
moisture which we have in so many fields 
at some period of almost every season.. In 
Sure Cropper we have found that corn. Lb. 
15c. not postpaid. 
GIANT WHITE RED COB — Makes a very 
large ear of the finest corn. Grains very 
large, deep, wide and thick, cob red, very 
popular wherever tried. We recommend this 
as being the finest variety of White Red Cob 
Corn. Has a very large, deep, wide, thick 
grain. Grain of medium size. Lb. 15c, not 
postpaid.

orous, prolific and strong,

yielder. Matures in 90 to 100 days. Lb. 15c, not postpaid.

plantable in the summer months. It has blue and white 
grains, therefore not so desirable by the market gardener. 
However, it makes a sweet and very juicy roasting ear. 
Lb. 15c, not postpaid. 
TEXAS GROWN JUNE CORN — The stalks, under fa- 
vorable conditions, grow from 7 to 8 feet high, and yield 
from 30 to 60 bushels to the acre. For best results it should 
not be planted until June or July, as it stands the hot 
weather better than any corn. Seed can be produced at any 
time after May 15th. Lb. 15c, not postpaid. 
CHAMPION WHITE EARL — An extra early pure white 
variety of dent corn. Matures in 100 days from time of 
planting, is very productive and the ears are exceedingly 
heavy. The grains are extra deep and white, and the cob 
is very small. A great favorite. Lb. 15c, not postpaid. 
DROUGHT RESISTER CORN — It is a white, early ma- 
turing, deep rooted, drought resisting corn, with medium 
size stalk; a corn that is easy to get a stand of, for it is a 
very hardy variety and a fast grower. Drought Resister is 
an exceptionally deep-rooted corn with roots almost straight 
down, with an abundant root system, permitting plowing 
within 6 inches of stalk without disturbing the root system. 
It is almost impossible for a man to pull up a stalk of 
prouene Resister when in roasting ear. Lb. 15c, not post- 
paid. 
TEXAS HONEY JUNE — Requires 87 days. A variety of 
Sweet Corn, especially adapted to growing in Texas. This 
corn was perfected by the Texas Experiment Station, at 
College Station, Texas. Has very heavy shucks, which makes 
it resistant to ear worm damage. Stalk about 6 feet tall. 
Ears, medium size, with 14 to 16 rows. We strongly recom- 
mend giving this wonderful corn a trial.

Yellow Corn, that matures in about 90 days, the ears mea- 
suring 10 to 12 inches and a big portion of the crop makes 
2 ears to the stalk. It is a heavy yielder per acre and will 
stand a drought better than most varieties. Lb. 15c, not 
postpaid. :

IOWEALTH HYBRID No. 30 — This num- 
ber has been a revelation to farmers in the 
southern part of the corn belt. It has the 
thick sturdy stalk and large showy ear char- 
acteristic of Midland Yellow Dent. Because 
of its uniformity and resistance to drought. 
it has made friends wherever introduced and 
is one of the first hybrids to be sold in the 
Rania southern corn belt which meets farmers’ 
ideas of type as well as yield. The close 
fitting husk minimizes ear worm damage 
to this hybrid. It is a clean corn, very 
free from suckers, remarkably wind resist- 
ant and one of the best for droughty areas.
