our lands without irrigation. Contains 20% Brome Grass, 40% Inter- 
mediate Wheat, 15% Crested Wheat and 25% Slender Wheat Grass. Sow 
at the rate of 8 to 10 pounds per acre. Prices in above list. We recom- 
mend the addition of about 20% Sweet Clover or Alfalfa to this grass 
mixture for maximum production, depending on local conditions as the 
method you wish to use your pasture. 
FORAGE CROPS 
There seems to be a much greater interest in forage crops this year 
than there has been in previous years. This is partly due to the wheat 
allotment program, with the cut in acreage which has resulted. Corn 
and forage crops are a good substitute. Also, many of the forage crops 
will make good yields even when rainfall is below normal. DO NOT 
PLANT UNTIL THE GROUND WARMS UP. 
**Sweet Sudan—A fine crop for hay or pasture, or either dry or irri- 
gated land. Plant 18-20 lbs. on dry land, 25-30 for irrigated. Price: 
$13.50 per ewt.; less than 50 lbs. @ 15c per lb. 
**Cane—A heavy producing crop under irrigation, and very drought re- 
sistant on the dry. We offer two varieties which are very popular 
in South Dakota, where cane is grown extensively. 
**Waconia—An early variety, outstanding for northern areas. 
**Rancher—Low acid variety developed by S. Dak. Exp. Station. Leafy, 
heavy juicy stalks, and a high yielder of both forage and grains. 
Use about 6 lbs. per acre for row planting, or 40-50 lbs. per acre in 
drills for forage. 
Price, either variety: $10.50 per cwt.; less than 50 lbs. @ 12c per lb. 
**Our Sweet Sudan and Cane Seed is treated with Arasan. Prevents 
seed rot and decay, and gives better yields. 
Millet—Hog or Proso (Red). Large seeded millet, excellent for grain 
or hay. Price: $5.50 per cwt.; less than 50 lbs. @ Tc per lb. 
Millet—Siberian. Considered by many the best kind for hay. To this 
writing, we have been unable to locate any. Ask for prices, we will 
quote if we are able to supply. 
Rape—Valuable as pasture. Sow 4 lbs. per acre for full stand. Also 
used in irrigated fields, by sowing about 2 lbs. per acre in stubble 
immediately after cutting small grain. Makes excellent hog or sheep 
pasture. Price per pound 30c; 10 lbs. or more @ 27c per lb.
