Wilson Soy Beans 
Soy Beans 
The Soy Bean is a crop of interest to all classes of 
farmers, and is bound to establish itself as one of the 
most valuable additions to American agriculture. No 
crop has gained popularity 
as rapidly as Soy Beans. 
On land too poor to grow 
clovers, Soy Beans and cow- 
peas can be made to produce 
great quantities of feed and 
will mcrease the fertility 
‘ while doing it. They should 
not be planted until the ground is warm—about 10 
days after corn-planting would be safe. Soil should be 
well prepared, just the same as you would for corn. 
Cover seed about 11% inches deep. Can be sown broad- 
cast or drilled in. Sow 11% bushels per acre for soil- 
Improvement; 2 bushels per acre for hay or pasturage.

WILSON. The most popular variety in cultivation. 
This early sort will mature seed in Pennsylvania, 
Ohio, and New Jersey. On account of the abundant 
growth of slender stems and branches, Wilson’s 
makes the best sort to grow for hay. Excellent to 
grow for seed and ensilage. Will do well on poor soils 
and produce a large crop of Beans, but we would 
recommend good soil for hay, forage, soiling, silage, 
or green manure. See Price-List. 
LINCOLN. One of the best yellow Beans introduced 
by the Illinois Experiment Station. Tests proved 
Lincoln outyields other yellow varieties. Stands up 
well. Contains more oil and produces large, medium- 
sized Beans. Matures in about 110 days. A good 
seed variety but not recommended for hay. For hay, 
Wilson is the best variety. See Price-List. 
Buckwheat 
Buckwheat can be planted from June 1 to middle of 
July, and is used much by farmers having vacant land 
upon which they were unable to get planted an earlier 
crop, or upon land where another crop has failed. 
Buckwheat does well on poor soil and makes one of 
the best fertilizer crops to turn under. A small patch 
planted near the poultry-yard can be harvested by the 
chickens. Sow 1 bushel per acre. 
JAPANESE. This is the standard and most popular 
variety of Buckwheat, and ripens a week earlier than 
the Silver Hull. It is the most productive and prolific 
variety in cultivation and resists drought and blight 
well. See Price-List.

Sudan Grass 
A tall grass which grows from 4 to 7 feet high. The 
stems are small and leafy. It ts like the sorghum or 
millets, and must be started each spring. Easily cured 
for hay, and stock will eat it readily. May be cut from 
two to four times in one year. The crop should be cut 
for hay as soon as the grass is full headed, and early 
cutting is advised when the crop is to be used for hay. 
See Price-List. 
Sweet Sudan 
Has been highly recommended by several State 
Experiment Stations. It has produced a considerably 
higher yield when harvested for hay or fodder after 
full bloom. Sweet Sudan has a sweet and juicy stalk 
like sweet sorghum. These stalks aré more nutritious 
than those of common Sudan. Sweet Sudan is the best 
emergency pasture for mid-summer and late summer 
grazing. Good results are obtained when seeded last 
of May or early June. Later maturing, thereby pro- 
ducing more vegetative growth and remaining green 
longer. It usually produces abundant material for 
grazing in about six weeks after seed is sown. See Price- 
List. 
Sandy or Hairy Vetch 
Also known as Winter Vetch. A _ rapid-growing 
winter annual that thrives on little moisture and can 
be sown spring or fall. Stays green all winter, furnishing 
an abundance of pasture until early spring to late in 
fall. A tremendous yielder, producing 15 to 20 tons 
of green forage per acre. As a fertilizer it has few equals, 
as It grows on poor soils exceedingly well, and a crop 
of Vetch plowed under is claimed to be equal to $20 
to $40 worth of commercial fertilizer. Sow about 
40 pounds of Vetch and about 4 bushel of Rye or 
Barley. The grain sown with Vetch will act as a sup- 
port for the vines. Vetch should be tnoculated with 
Legume-Aid for best results. See Price-List.

Millets 
GOLDEN. Also known as German Millet. The best 
for hay or fodder. When cut in full bloom the quality 
is exceptionally good and all kinds of stock relish it. 
On good soil a yield as high as 5 tons per acre may 
be expected. Sow 35 pounds per acre. See Price-List. 
JAPANESE. Billion Dollar Grass. The best soil on 
which to grow this Millet is that which is in fair 
condition of fertility and mclined to be wet rather 
than dry. Japanese Millet is adapted to all seasons. 
It will grow 6 to 8 feet high. Excellent for silage and 
is fully equal to the best corn-fodder as a food for 
milch cows. The seed may be sown broadcast at 
the rate of 30 to 35 pounds per acre. This variety 
stools remarkably and should not be sown too thick. 
See Price-List. 
Dwarf Essex Rape 
A valuable forage plant. One acre will pasture more 
hogs, sheep, and cattle than 4 acres of clover or other 
grasses. As a healthful, fattening pasture-food it has no 
equal. It is an annual, producing large Ieaves, and can 
be sown any time from early spring until September. 
Ready for pasture 6 to 8 weeks after sowing. It stands 
out without a rival for cheapness and effectiveness. 
Sow 6 to 8 pounds per acre, broadcast See Price-List.
