NICHOLSON’S HEAVY YIELDING SEED OATS 
Cordova Barley 
(Winter Variety) 
Makes excellent pasture and yields from 
“U to 60 bushels per acre. We sell immense 
quantities of this splendid variety each fall. 
darley should be planted at the rate of about 
two bushels per acre. Ground Barley makes 
wonderful feed. Bu., $2.10; 10 bu., $2.00 per 
bu., f.o.b. Dallas. 
Russian Sunflower 
The seed is highly valued by farmers and 
poultry breeders who have tried it. Single 
heads measure 12 to 20 inches in diameter 
and contain large quantities of seed, and can 
be raised much cheaper than corn. This is a 
profitable crop for the farmer to grow, as 
there is a big demand for the seed to mix 
in poultry feeds. Five to ten pounds will plant 
an acre. Lb., 55c; 2 lbs., $1.00, postpaid. 
Kindly write us for prices in larger quantities. 
Dwarf Essex Rape 
“he use of Rape has grown in a few years 
from a few thousand pounds of seed used, to 
thousands of tons of seed per year. Rape is 
one of the most valuable forage plants, its 
many uses being considered, that has ever 
been introduced into the United States. Until 
lately, Rape has been grown mostly for sheep 
asture, but in recent yous eople have 
earned that it is equally valuable as a 
forage crop for cattle, hogs and poultry. The 
young tender leaves of Rape make fine 
greens for table use and are preferred by 
some to mustard and other greens. To those 
of our customers who are not familiar with 
Rave, we will say that it grows something 
like a cabbage plant before the cabbage be- 
gins to head up; however, the Rape makes a 
larger plant, often 18 inches to feet high, 
under favorable weather conditions and on 
good soil Rape will produce from 10 to 25 
tons of green forage per acre. It can be 
grown in the fall as well as it stands our win- 
ters without killing; it can also be sown in 
the spring with good results. Sow in drills at 
the rate of 5 to 8 pounds per acre. Prices Pkt., 
10c; Ib., SOc; 2 lbs., 90c, postpaid. Ask for 
prices in larger quantities.
