MILLET 
Do not plant mil- 
lets until two or ‘ ; 
three weeks after corn planting time. 
Sow about 40 pounds per acre, 
and even later, when a dry spring 
reduces pasture, or when a cold wet 
spring damages corn and other 
crops. It must not be sown until the 
ground is warm. Cut for hay as soon 
as it blooms, before the seed forms. 
EARLIEST RUSSIAN OR SI- 
BERIAN. The hardiest and most re- 
sistant to drought. Ready to cut for

JAPANESE. Sow 20 to 25 lbs. per acre for this variety 
only. Grows 4 to 8 feet high, stands up remarkably 
and yields large crops, making more than other millets. 
It is a very large millet, adapted to all sections, and 
especially fine for low ground. Ranks high in milk- 
producing qualities, being rich in protein and fats. For 
hay, cut it just before it blossoms and cure the same as 
clover. It is good for exterminating quack grass, as it 
stools heavily. It is the ideal catch crop, sowing any 
time from May to July.

ements to encourage healthy Plant Food 
plant life. Clean and odorless. ve Mette 
Use four pounds per 100 square ‘ 
feet. 
On lawns, make about three ap- 
plications a year, omitting any 
application during extreme hot weather, for a healthy, 
green, luxuriant lawn. Every home can use a hundred 
pound bag each year. . 
For finer vegetables, make several applications. Apply 
four pounds per 100 square feet when preparing your 
soil. Raking the top soil will work it into the ground, 
~and-a week later, sow your seed. Later top dressings 
should be made about six inches from the plants. Verta- 
green will give you finer and larger flowers, finer 
roses, healthier shrubs. It is a product of Armour, and 
we highly recommend it. For trees, drive one inch holes 
21% feet apart under the outer edges of the branches 
and add two handfuls to each hole.

SALZER’S SOY BEANS 
Soy Beans make a good growth on poor soils, especially 
if inoculated, succeed on acid soil, will grow as far 
north as corn and as far south as cotton, they make a 
splendid rotation crop, and they build up the soil. Cut 
for hay any time after the pods begin to form. Sow 
45 Ibs. in drills per acre or 2 bu. (120 Ibs.) broadcast. 
Inoculate with Nitragin before planting. See page 64.

MANCHU No. 606 
A selection of Manchu Soy Beans made at the Spooner 
Wisconsin Branch Experiment Station. In maturity, 
it is about a week earlier than Manchu and is about the 
earliest and the best variety for the production of seed 
in the northern parts of Wisconsin, and similar lati- 
tudes. High in oil content. 
The plants are from 28 inches to 35 inches high, they 
stand up well, and the USDA tests over a period. of 
three years, indicates Manchu No. 606 averaged 27.6 
bushels per acre yield, with 41.4% protein, and 19.9% 
oil of 135 iodine number. Manchu No. 606 is recom- 
mended by both the Wisconsin and Minnesota Stations, 
and we believe that any of our customers across the 
country, in similar latitudes will have complete satis- 
faction with the yield of Manchu No. 606. The seed is 
yellow.

NEW MONROE SOY BEANS : 
This new Soy Bean may replace many of the other early 
varieties because of its splendid characteristics. Devel- 
oped by the Ohio Experiment Station and the U. S. 
Regional Soybean Laboratory and approved after being 
tested by a group of states including Wisconsin. It is 
adapted to the 100-105 day corn areas, also for late 
planting further south and for hay further north. The 
plants are tall and resistant to lodging; the pods are 
borne well off the ground so that no pods are lost when 
combined. Seeds are light yellow, including the hilum 
and oil content is about 20%.

sistant to lodging. It produces well, outyielding earlier

HENRY WHEAT. The important ad- 
vantages of this spring wheat are disease 
resistance and high yield! It is resistant 
to leaf rust and moderately resistant to 
stem rust. and stinking smut. In tests at 
the Wisconsin Experiment .Station and 
with certified. growers, it has con- 
siderably outyielded the older varieties, 
which it is rapidly replacing. 
Henry Wheat is early maturing and will 
ripen about the same time as Thatcher 
and Marquis. It has large, wide heads, 
with bearded chaff which is white or may 
be tinged with red at maturity. The 
kernels are larger than most spring 
wheats, and have fair to good milling 
and baking qualities.
