JAPANESE BUCKWHEAT 
A good summer poor land or soil im- 
proving crop to smother weeds, or for 
bees. No grain crop can be grown 
easier or in less time, maturing in 2 
months. Its flour makes delicious cakes. 
June through August, sow 50 Ibs. per 
acre. 
BENE 
Makes enormous amount of nutritious 
fattening seeds loved by game birds 
and poultry. Adapted to most soils; up- 
right growth, covered in fall with long 
okra like pods. These gradually open all 
winter, dropping the seeds which attract 
quail and other game birds. Drill 5 lbs. 
per acre in 2!/5-ft. rows and cultivate; 
or broadcast 15 Ibs. per acre. 
BROWN TOP MILLET 
Draws doves many miles. Relished by 
quail and turkey. Excellent bird cover. 
Similar to Tenn. millet, but taller, has 
larger heads, produces more seed, hay 
and grazing. Can be grazed constantly 
in dry summers, starting when 3 in. tall. 
One plant stools out about 30 stems, 
relished by poultry and livestock. Makes 8 
more hay than Sudan, equal to Timothy ——— 
_in feeding value, allows several cuttings, Pearl or Cat-Tail Millet 
yielding 5 or 6 tons per acre. Broadcast 20 lbs. per acre, April to July. 
PEARL or CATTAIL MILLET 
Grows 10 to 12 ft. tall. For greatest amount of nutritious green feed or 
hay cut at 3 to 4 ft. Stools out luxuriantly; gives 3 to 4 cut- 
tings a season, growing till frost. Does well even on poor land 
WOOD'S QUAIL PLANTING MIXTURE 
Sown in Food Patches Attracts and Multiplies Game Birds. 
Va. Game Commission says: ''Ample food is necessary throughout the 
year. Scarcity of food and cover in winter definitely limits the number 
of quail that survive. Cover is any vegetation giving protection from 
enemies, the elements, and a refuge for roosting and nesting. Quail 
eat a variety of seeds, almost all legumes, preferably lespedezas, cow- 
peas and small soybeans. The 15 to 30 feet of field next to woods pro- 
duces a small stunted crop, grown at a loss as the return seldom equals 
the cost of plowing, seed, fertilizer, cultivation and harvest. The only 
practical land use is to sow field borders in wildlife food and cover 
which controls erosion, retards tree growth, and furnishes turnrows."' 
Old-time bird hunters know where to find birds—in patches of cow 
peas, millet, etc. However, food from one of these crops lasts only a 
short while. Then quail must range elsewhere for food. : 
We have examined hundreds of quail ''craws'’ many 
years to study their food habits. Our mixture contains 
16 kinds most frequently found in quail stomachs. 
These mature at different times, furnish seed and 
greens the year round, enables a farm to grow more 
quail and attracts them from other areas. It assists 
young birds to grow quickly and keep plump. 
It contains lespedezas, six weeks and mid-season 
cow peas and late peas to hold birds during hunting 
season. It has early, medium and late millet, Brown 
Top Millet, so popular with southern hunting pre- 
serves. It has dwarf early and late combine milo, 
early and late small seeded soybeans, bene, sudan, 
sesbania, and buckwheat, relished by birds. Rape 
furnishes green food in winter and spring. 
It furnishes low cover to protect birds from their 4 
enemies, yet not tall enough to interfere with shooting. Our 
formula is based on years testing on our own and some of the 
largest Southern hunting preserves. Plant it in patches where 
you hunted last fall and find more birds next season. 
HOW TO PLANT. Broadcast 30 Ibs. per acre May to July 
on prepared land. 300 Ibs. per acre of fertilizer is desirable. It 
pays to disk, harrow and sow every year. For Quail sow in long 
strips, near cover, fences, ditches or hedgerows, in old tobacco 
beds, or in openings or fire lanes in woods, 5 lbs. per strip, 
400 ft. by 15 ft. For Wild Turkeys or Pheasants sow in wider 
strips in secluded spots. For Doves sow | or 2-acre plots in 
the center of open areas. 
SESBANIA 
Excellent for quail, duck marshes, or soil improving in Southern 
Coastal Plains. Made more seed than any other crop in a 
5-year Georgia test. Game birds are attracted from a dis- 
tance by the seed. Does well on any soil if cultivated, but best 
on rich bottoms if broadcast. Makes a quick vigorous growth 
and furnishes excellent cover. A superior soil-improving crop. 
With moisture it creates more nitrogen and humus than most 
other plants. Sow 20 to 25 lbs. per acre after ground warms, 
April through July. 
-Tenn. Ge 
i 
rman Millet 
PRICES IN FRONT OF CATALOG 
and in dry seasons. Highly nutritious. All stock eat it greedily 
and flourish on it. Also excellent for silage. When 
land is warm, plant 8 Ibs. per acre in 3-ft. drills near 
the feeding lot. Cut some daily; fertilize heavily. 
TENNESSEE GERMAN MILLET 
Big head, large yielding type. Makes a bumper crop 
of easily cured hay in 60 days. One of the easiest 
grown summer catch crops when feed is short. Smoth- 
ers out weeds, leaving ground in fine condition for 
fall crops. Drill 50 lbs. per acre on harrowed wheat 
or oat land, May to July. Apply 300 Ibs. per acre 
of 5-10-5 fertilizer. Sow 25 lbs. with a bushel of soy- 
beans or cowpeas for higher yield, more nutritious 
hay and for better land. Cut when the millet blooms. We also 
have Hog Millet which is earlier and has smaller heads. 
WOOD'S BIRD SCATTER FOOD 
Attracts doves, quail, turkey and other game birds to your 
farm, ducks and geese to your marshes, or song birds to your 
home. Feed it regularly in winter, especially during snows 
when little native food is left. Birds range far to find it. It 
furnishes nourishment and warmth in the coldest weather. 
Native birds will remain and repay you many times over 
killing insect pests. Migratory birds will return to your marshes 
the following winter. Birds never forget where they found food 
when needed. Birds need a variety of food to keep healthy. 
Our formula, prepared by highest authority, has a wide as- 
sortment of seeds sought by wild birds. It is used by many 
bird clubs and other wildlife conservation organizations. 
MAMMOTH RUSSIAN SUNFLOWER 
Good grain crop for poultry or game, or green feed for hogs. 
Profitable cash crop; yields 1,000 to 1,500 Ibs. per acre of 
seed rich in oil and protein. Plant and cultivate like corn in 
2'/>-foot rows. For feed or silage, plant 15.to 20 lbs. per acre; 
for seed production 8 lbs. a foot apart in the row. When ripe, 
cut off the heads. Pile loosely under cover to dry.
