Wilson Soy Beans 
Soy Beans 
On land too poor to grow clovers, Soy Beans can be 
made to produce great quantities of feed and will in- 
crease the fertility while doing it. Soil should be well 
prepared, just the same as 
you would for corn. Cover 
INOCULATE THIS seed about 1% inches deep.

bushels per acre for soil- 
improvement; 2 bushels per 
acre for hay or pasturage. 
WILSON. This early sort will mature seed in Penn- 
sylvania, Ohio, and New Jersey. On account of the 
abundant growth of slender stems and branches, 
Wilson’s makes the best sort to grow for hay. Ex- 
cellent to grow for seed and ensilage. Will do well 
on poor soils and produce a large crop of Beans, 
but we would recommend good soil for hay, forage, 
soiling, silage, or green manure. See Price-List. 
WABASH. One of the best yellow Beans. Combines 
high yield and high oil content. Good standing 
ability, desirable height, and good quality seed. 
Tests in Delaware proved that Wabash out-yielded 
all other yellow varieties. A good variety to grow 
for Beans, but we do not recommend Wabash for a 
hay crop. We recommend Wilson Beans for ,hay. 
Matures tn about 130 days. See Price-List. 
MAMMOTH YELLOW. Will not mature seed in 
Pennsylvania. Planted largely as ensilage with corn; 
not such a good variety for hay. Grows very tall and 
coarser in texture than Wilson. Will make more bulk 
for silage than any other variety. See Price-List. 
Buckwheat 
Buckwheat can be planted from June 1 to middle of 
July, and is used much by farmers having vacant land 
upon which they were unable to get planted an earlier 
crop, or upon land where another crop has failed. 
Buckwheat does well on poor soil and makes one of 
the best fertilizer crops to turn under. A small patch 
planted near the poultry-yard can be harvested by the 
chickens. Sow 1 bushel per acre. 
JAPANESE. This is the standard and most popular 
variety of Buckwheat, and ripens a week earlier than 
the Silver Hull. It ts the most productive and prolific 
variety in cultivation and resists drought and blight 
well. See Price-List. 
Dwarf Essex Rape 
A valuable forage plant. One acre will pasture more 
hogs, sheep, and cattle than 4 acres of clover or other 
grasses. As a healthful, fattening pasture-food it has no 
equal. It is an annual, producing large leaves, and can 
be sown any time from early spring until September. 
Ready for pasture 6 to 8 weeks after sowing. It stands 
out without a rival for cheapness and effectiveness. 
Sow 6 to 8 pounds per acre, broadcast. See Price-List.

YOU WITH YOUR PROBLEMS 
Sandy or Hairy Vetch 
Also known as Winter Vetch. A _ rapid-growing 
winter annual that thrives on little moisture and can 
be sown spring or fall. Stays green all winter, furnishing 
an abundance of pasture until early spring to late in 
fall. A tremendous yielder, producing 15 to 20 tons 
of green forage per acre. Asa fertilizer it has few equals, 
as It grows on poor soils exceedingly well, and a crop 
of Vetch plowed under is claimed to be equal to $20 
to $40 worth of commercial fertilizer. Sow about 
40 pounds of Vetch and about 4% bushel of Rye or 
Barley. The grain sown with Vetch will act as a sup- 
port for the vines. Vetch should be inoculated with 
Legume-Aid for best results. See Price-List. 
Inoculate this Legume Seed with LEGUME-AID 
Millets 
GOLDEN. Also known as German Millet. The best 
for hay or fodder. When cut in full bloom the quality 
is exceptionally good and all kinds of stock relish it. 
On good soil a yield as high as 5 tons per acre may 
be expected. Sow 35 pounds per acre. See Price-List. 
JAPANESE. Billion Dollar Grass. The best soil on 
which to grow this Millet is that which is in fair 
condition of fertility and inclined to be wet rather 
than dry. Japanese Millet is adapted to all seasons. 
It will grow 6 to 8 feet high. Excellent for silage and 
is fully equal to the best corn-fodder as a food for 
milch cows. The seed may be sown broadcast at 
the rate of 30 to 35 pounds per acre. This variety 
stools remarkably and should not be sown too thick. 
See Price-List. 
Sweet Sudan 
Sweet Sudan 
Has been highly recommended by several State 
Experiment Stations. It has produced a considerably 
higher yield when harvested for hay or fodder after 
full bloom. Sweet Sudan has a sweet and juicy stalk 
like sweet sorghum. These stalks are more nutritious 
than those of common Sudan. Sweet Sudan is the best 
emergency pasture for midsummer and late summer 
grazing. Good results are obtained when seeded last 
of May or early June. Later maturing, thereby pro- 
ducing more vegetative growth and remaining green 
longer. It usually produces abundant material for 
grazing in about six weeks after seed is sown. Sow 
30 pounds per acre. See Price-List.
