Dixie Runner Peanuts 
Dixie Runner (120 days.) A new variety devel- 
oped by the Florida Agricultural Experiment Station after 
eleven years of work, yielding much better and of higher 
quality than commonly grown Florida Runner. This new va- 
riety produces high yields like Spanish peanuts, in four years’ 
tests averaging 53 per cent higher yields than the Florida Run- 
ner, and yet remains dormant after maturity like the regular 
Runners, thus being especially suited to “hogging off.” Hog 
raisers have long wanted a variety of this type. It is a vigorous 
grower with more prostrate branches, and therefore is more 
apt to fill the spaces left by skips in the stand. Kernels are 
very much like the standard Florida Runner in size, shape, 
markings, and color. The pods are somewhat lighter and bright- 
er in color, shorter, thicker at the waist and more cylindrical 
in shape. In addition to high yield and dormancy characters, 
this variety possesses a most valuable quality for shellers, it 
showing less than 1 per cent of concealed damage, or decay of 
the interior of the kernels, which is a serious disadvantage of 
some varieties going to the shelling plants, which average as 
high as 20 per cent concealed damage.

DWARF ESSEX RAPE 
Sow 4 pounds in drills or 8 to 10 pounds 
broadcast per acre. 
For early Spring, Fall or Winter planting for quick green 
forage or grazing for hogs and poultry, there is nothing equal 
to Dwarf Essex Rape. While mostly planted in Fall and early 
winter, it may be planted in early Spring, but it will not stand 
much warm weather. It makes a quick succulent growth. It 
may be used as a substitute for turnip greens. It can be planted 
in rows like turnips, or broadcast covering by a light harrowing. 
It is ready for grazing in eight to ten weeks after planting. 
After cutting, or grazing, it keeps coming out again. Rape can 
be sown with fine results any month from September to March. 
It is a splendid green feed and forage crop relished by all 
kinds of stock and is relished especially by milk cows and in- 
creases the production of milk.

RYE 
Sow 2 pecks in drills; broadcast 1 bushel per acre. 
A bushel weighs 56 pounds. 
Rye is perhaps the most valuable and leading fall and winter 
forage crop for Florida. Absolutely dependable and will yield 
an enormous amount of grazing throughout the fall and winter 
seasons. Relished by live stock and poultry. 
Rye can be planted from September to January but Octo- 
ber, November, and December are the best months in which 
to plant. Fertilization is the same as for oats. (See page 44.) 
lf you wish to cut and feed green instead of grazing it, plant 
in drills, 3 feet apart, using two pecks of seed per acre, but 
where planted broadcast, for pasture, it will take 1 bushel to 
seed an acre. Florida Black and Abruzzi are the best varie- 
ties of Rye for pasture plantings in Florida. 
Abruzzi. Best tall-growing variety, producing a heavier ton- 
nage of green feed and grain than any other type. Tall and 
upright, early and heavy yielder. 
1 Ib. 25c; 2 Ibs. 45c, postpaid. 
Not prepaid, 14 Ibs. (pk.) $1.25; 56 Ibs. (bu.) $4.50 

Abruzzi Rye 
RICE 
Sow % bushel (22 lbs.) per acre. 
Rice makes fine feed for both stock and poultry. Prepare 
the ground thoroughly and drill % bushel per acre in 2%-foot 
rows and cultivate a few times. Should be planted in March 
or April in order that it may mature at a time to miss the rice- 
bird season. If planted in June and July it will also miss the 
bird season. 
Gopher. This is a very popular variety for Florida, and is 
generally known as Upland Rice. Grains heavy, broad, and flat.

ida. It produces a heavier, taller, more vigorous ‘stalk with 
heavier heads than other varieties of this type. Does not shat- 
ter as badly as other varieties. Produces long, slender grains. 
Best adapted for low wet land.
