OTHER MONEY MAKING CROPS FOR GRAIN, HAY AND PASTURE 
CANE 
MAKES TREMENDOUS YIELDS 
This forage Cane is very rich in sugar and fat. 
It is a very palatable crop. Its yields are enormous 
as it produces 10 to 15 tons of excellent green feed 
on rich land. It also is a remarkable drought re- 
sister. If you want it for hay make the seeding 
at a heavier rate of 75 to 100 pounds to the acre. 
For a fodder crop you can drill it in rows as far 
apart as corn rows, using around 10 pounds to the 
acre, or double up the rows and use 20. For hay 
the heavier your rate of seeding, the finer the 
growth. 
Early Amber type, the kind most generally grown, 
a great value because of its splendid growing 
power. Item 216 on Price List. P 
Early Orange type, heavier stalks, more abundant 
Jeaves, heads more compact. Heavier yielder but 
a little coarser. Cane seed is more plentiful this 
year. See Item No. 215 on Price List. 
CANE ror sorGHum PuRPOSES 
We use great care in getting our sorghum seed. 
We cannot guarantee the crop but we do consider 
it equal, if not superior to any on the market. 
This was secured for molasses purposes from Cane that had been 
used in making sorghum. It makes molasses of excellent quality, 
both as to color and flavor. It is juicy and is the choice of most 
sorghum makers in this section who call it Kentucky Red Top.

DWARF ESSEX RAPE 
A Crop that Will Help You Reduce Pork Production Cost 
This is a very rapid growing crop. It is one of the greatest of quick growing 
forage and pasture crops for the cornbelt. It can be pagtured within 6 to 8 weeks 
after seeding. You can sow it any time from early spring until next summer, Rape 
HEGARI 
This is a sweet sorghum, somewhat after 
the order of the Atlas Sorgo and the Norkan, 
described on the previous page. It does not grow 
as tall. The stalks are very sturdy. The crop is 
very nutritious, whether used as a fodder, for en- 
Silage, grain or even as pasture. Hegari yielded 
up to 5000 pounds of grain per acre and up to 8 
tons of ensilage. Livestock, especially cattle, are 
very fond of it because of its sweet taste. It com- 
bines the grain production of Kaffir and Milo with 
the high forage value of Cane. It matures earlier 
than Atlas. The growth is at least three foot 
shorter. Item 217 on Price List. 
MILO 
THE EARLY MATURING COMBINE TYPES 
RIPENS IN ABOUT 90-95 DAYS 
These new low growing: Milos have become the 
most popular of all the grain sorghums. They have 
been dwarfed insofar as stalk growth is concerned. 
For grain production, however, it has remained 
very high. You can harvest this grain with an ordinary grain com- 
bine. Therefore, if the crop has matured so that the seed is good and 
dry, you do not have to first cut it and shock it, you can combine it 
right out of the field. Feeding value runs quite close to that of corn. 
You will find this extremely drought resistant. It makes good feed 
for cattle and widely used for chicken feed. You get good insurance 
of a crop of grain by having some of this drought resistant grain on 
your farm. We ship best available on orders. Item 222 on Price List. 
It’s Gro-Coated. 
NORGHUM 
One of the newest, earliest and best combine type grain sorghums, 
Very strong stalks. Stands up well. Yields of grain have been con- 
sistently high. Average maturity around 90 days depending on loca- 
tion and conditions. This was by all odds, the outstanding combine 
sorghum in our Clarinda tests 
PASTURE last summer. Outstanding in 
South Dakota. Excellent report 
from Nebraska. Last year this 
seed sold wholesale at $25.00 per 
100 lbs. We recommend it most 
highly for all Eastern and South- 
ern as well as Western and North- 
ern customers wanting a crop of 
this type. See Item 219 on Price 
List for Gro-Coated seed. 
KAFFIR CORN

is equal to Alfalfa in feeding value for hogs and sheep, and it also is good for calves, 
eattle and horses: With Rape pasture you can cut down the amount of grain that is 
required, and you will get your hogs ready for market quicker. In tests at the Iowa 
Experiment Station Rape pasture cut down more on grain consumption and tankage 
than when they were fed on Alfalfa and it carried more head per acre. 
Rape, under favorable conditions, will yield 40 tons or 80,000 Ibs. of green matter 
per acre. On a dry basis it analyzes high as 37% protein. It is also high in calcium 
and phosphorus. It is superior to Alfalfa and Clover as a corn balancer. Provides 
pasture from early spring until the ground freezes in the fall. 
Rape is a crop that grows and makes a heavy leafy growth. The leaves look some- 
what like cabbage leaves, but it does not form heads. One of the finest things about 
it is that it grows so fast. If you are looking for a quick pasture, especially for hogs 
and sheep, you will find it hard to excel Dwarf Essex Rape. 
Be sure to grow some. Sow it alone in the spring or with Oats and pasture when 
the Oats are removed. Some sow about the same time they sow Oats, others broad- 
east when the Oats are up a bit, and let the rains cover it. : 
Only requires about 5 or 6 Ibs. of the seed per acre. It grows on many soils. It does 
best on fertile, well drained loams. It is not so well adapted to sandy or stiff clay 
soil. Our seed is guaranteed genuine Dwarf Essex Rape. 
We secure supplies from areas offering the best in quality and value for our cus- 
tomers. Our seed is priced to include Gro-Coating. We consider that is very helpful 
and costs less than 10c per acre. Deduct 1%c¢ per pound from Price List for seed 
not Gro-Coated.

less juicy than Cane, Hegari or 
Atlas. They are not sweet. They 
stand a lot of dry weather. Makes 
wonderful poultry feed. Produces 
up to 40 to 50 bushels per acre. 
For grain drill in rows 30 to 40 
inches apart, 6 to 8 Ibs. to the 
acre. Item No. 223 on Price List 
for Gro-Coated seed. 
EARLY KALO 
This early Kalo is a very 
drought resistant grain sorghum, 
while one of the heaviest pro- 
ducers in its class. Becoming very 
popular in sections outside of the 
grain sorghum section because of 
its fine quality and wide adapt- 
ability. Grows 3% to 4 ft. high. 
Matures in 95 to 100 days. Stalks 
are slender, See Item 218 on Price 
List.

Sows More Acres Because of High Quality 
Dear Sir: Freeport, Tl. 
I have been sending to you for my seed for the past 
several years and have been well pleased. This last spring 
I sent in an order but when the seed came it looked so 
good that I decided to sow more. It has been very satis- 
factory. : 
Yours truly, Henry Kortemeier.
