FIELD SEEDS 
ADAPTED TO THE SOUTHWEST 
Alfalfa 
NEW MEXICO COMMON—This crop 
will pay two ways at one time: it will 
build soil while it is producing a paying 
crop. It is especially adapted to the 
Pecos Valley for the production of both 
hay and seed. We offer several grades 
of this seed including CERTIFIED, and 
to give you the highest possible grades 
we maintain the most modern equipment 
for recleaning and processing. Plant 
20 lbs. seed per acre in September or 
April, fall planting preferred. In high 
altitude, plant from May through July. 
An application of Acid Phosphate will 
increase the hay yield from 30% to 40%. 
Sweet Clover 
YELLOW BLOSSOM BIENNIAL — A 
nitrogen producing, soil building pasture 
crop. Roots penetrate deep and into 
hardpan, then decompose to supply hum- 
us. Plant 15 lbs. seed per acre in spring 
or fall. This crop withstands drought, 
alkali and the extremes of weather. 
Beans 
MEXICAN PINTO — The field bean 
throughout New Mexico. Requires little 
moisture and matures in the short seas- 
on of a high altitude.. Plant in June or 
early July in the Pecos Valley, using 25 
lbs. seed per acre. 
Corn 
MEXICAN JUNE—Dependable in the 
Southwest due to drought and disease 
resistant qualities and to the tight, heavy 
shuck which resists worms and birds. 
Stalks extremely tall and most desirable 
for ensilage. Kernels hard. Other va- 
rieties may yield more shelled corn at 
times but this is the most certain. About 
110 days to mature. 
STRAWBERRY or CALICO — An all 
purpose heavy yielder. Kernels are soft 
and most are striped with red, white 
and yellow. Large ears, stalks medium 
to large. About 120 days to mature. 
HYBRID JACQUES—Drought resisting 
and a good yielder, has been satisfactory 
in the Pecos Valley during the past nine 
years. Available in 80, 85, 90, 95, 100, 
105, 110, 115 and 120 days to maturity. 
The 115 day has been our heaviest yield- 
er. 
No. 93W TEXAS WHITE HYBRID — 
Very promising for the Pecos Valley 
on a one year trial. Early maturing, 
drouth resisting, protected from worms 
by almost perfect shuck coverage. Very 
popular for roasting ears, also, an ex- 
cellent producer of shelled corn. 
Pop Corn 
GIANT YELLOW MUSHROOM-— Yields 
well in the Southwest and has been our 
most popular variety for a number of 
years, When popped, has a distinct flav- 
or, no husks or hard centers and is 
cream colored. 
Cotton 
ACALA 1517-A (previously known as 
Acala 2815)—Bred for the Pecos Val- 
ley, it has produced her highest known 
yields. Government tests on the 746 
crop showed no better spinning cotton in 
the United States. Uniform staple of 
about 1% inches. Large bolls, easily 
picked. We offer Registered and Certi- 
fied seed, either delinted or in the lint. 
The delinted seed is favored since it 
will germinate 5 to 7 days sooner and 
the delinting process will reduce the 
lint-borne diseases. Begin planting on 
April 10th with 12 lbs. delinted or 32 
Ibs. lint seed per acre. 
Sorghum Grains 
ATLAS SORGO—Generally considered 
to be an ensilage crop only. Will make 
sorghum molasses. Stalks are very 
sweet and often ten feet high. Grain 
has low feed value. 
PLAINSMAN MILO—A cross between 
double dwarf kaffir and dwarf milo 
which has become the favored combine- 
type of grain. Grows about 30 inches 
high and produces an abundance of red 
grain that is high in feed value, the 
choice of many livestock feeders. Re- 
sistant to Pythium rot. Will mature in 
105 to 115 days. Plant 8 lbs. per acre 
in 86 inch rows. It pays to plant Certi- 
fied seed for this type of crop to avoid 
rogues which interfere with combining. 
HEGARI—New Mexico Certified. Our 
best all-purpose feed crop. The grain 
rates high among feeds and the stalk 
is sweet. Excellent for bundle feed, 
or, the grain is often threshed and the 
stalk pastured. One of the most drouth
