\ SWEET SUDAN GRASS/ I 
— — ——sC*DELICIOUS, NUTRITIOUS AND ENORMOUSLY PRODUCTIVE 
It's New! It's Different! It's Better! 








os Nh % Here’s something so new, so different and so superior to the old regular Sudan, PRICE IS 
: that we predict it will replace it in a few years. It is a crop that was developed by M hL 
crossing regular Sudan on Leoti. Leoti is a heavy yielding, sweet juicy sorghum. uc ower 
It has high resistance against disease and shattering of seed. Sudan is a fine stemmed Thi Y 
a. cae aes member of the cane family that stools freely. It makes wonderful hay, but it is not Is ear 
sweet. In making this cross the best of these two crops was put into one. It grows it 231 
very much like ordinary Sudan, stools even more freely and grows taller. The leaves em “ 
are a little broader. It is a sensational yielder. This is so new that widespread ° e 
yield reports are not as yet available. We do know that regular Sudan will produce on Price List 
up to 10 tons of hay per acre. Sweet Sudan with its free stooling, taller growth 
and broader leaves, should outyield it at least 30%. 
A Palatable Fast Growing Crop for Pasture or Hay 
You should not plant this crop until the ground is thoroughly warm, 
around corn planting time. Plant it on a seed bed about like you would 
prepare for corn. The seed will then germinate rapidly if you have warm 
weather and a warm seed bed. It grows very fast. Sweet Sudan should give 
you 2 or 3 cuttings of hay the same year you sow it. It does not have to be 
cut at any definite period. If farm work interferes you can let it stand and 
cut it later. Even when you let the crop stand for seed, it still makes good 
feed. It has a delicious flavor, high feeding value, and that with big yields 
gives you a combination that is hard to beat. 
Notice the photographs at the left, which show you how cattle prefer 
Sweet Sudan to the regular Sudan growing side by side. Regular Sudan 
is eaten all right, but not with the relish of Sweet Sudan which they eat 
close to the ground. A crop that will yield over 10/tons of hay per acre 
has a big carrying capacity as a pasture. You can pasture it just as safely 
as.the regular Sudan according to all reports we have.

REGULAR SUDAN 
A Fast Growing Crop That Is Widely Adapted 
Sudan grass belongs to the Cane family, but it is finer 
stemmed and a free stooler. It grows from 4 to 7 feet high. 
It will yield 4 to 7 tons of cured hay per acre. It has good & 
feeding value. Livestock is very fond of Sudan. The first See No. 230 
hay crop can be cut about 60 days after seeding. Second PRICE 
and third crop 30 to 40 days apart. You can sow it around 
corn planting time or just a little after, which will indicate LIST 
how quickly you could get a valuable feed crop. Sudan is 
one of the best drouth resisting grasses known. It stands a . 
lot of heat. It supplies an abundance of fine pasture or hay, during the 
dry months of summer when feed is often scarce. Since it yields so H + 
heavily you do not have to devote many acres to get a lot of feed from ow TO 
Sudan grass. It provides feed insurance, that is why every farm should Handle Sudan Grass 
have some of either the regular or Sweet Sudan.
