STANDARD VARIETIES OF FIELD SEEDS, continued 
MILLET 
Tennessee Golden 
50 lbs. to the bushel; 50 to 75 lbs. per acre. 
Sow broadcast from May to August. Makes an enormous yield of 
hay and is usually in best condition for cutting just as the heads begin 
to form, about 50 days after sowing. A favorite use is to follow early 
potatoes. Never put Millet on poor ground. Write for prices. 
Pearl or Cat-Tail 
50 lbs. to the bushel; 6 lbs. per acre in rows; 
30 lbs. per acre when broadcast. 
Sow from May to August. This variety will grow 10 feet high but 
should be cut when 3 or 4 feet high. It will stool out enormously 
after being cut. Can be cut several times, for it keeps growing until 
frost. Lb. 65c; 5 Ibs. $1.85; 10 Ibs. $3.25, postpaid. Write for prices 
in larger quantities. 
SORGHUM 
50 Ibs. to the bushel; 2 bu. per acre broadcast. 
Sow from May to August. When grown for hay, it should be sown 
thickly so that the stalks do not have a chance to get too large. Will 
often produce from three to five tons of cured hay per acre. When 
grown for summer feeding, it should be sown in rows 21% feet apart, 
leaving about eight stalks to the foot, using 15 pounds to the acre. 
When grown for hay, the quality and value will be much improved 
if 15 pounds of Sorghum and a bushel of either soy beans or mixed 
cowpeas are sown per acre. If grown for syrup, sow 6 pounds to the 
acre. Height 8 to 10 feet. 
Amber. (60 days.) An early, tall and very productive variety that 
makes good green or cured feed. Write for prices. 
Sugar Drip. Waconia Strain. (70 days.) An excellent sort often 
used for making syrup, which is of excellent quality. Will also 
make a larger yield of seed or forage. Lb. 60c; 5 Ibs. $2.75; 10 Ibs. 
$5.50, postpaid. Write for prices in larger quantities. 
SWEET SUDAN GRASS 
50 lbs. to the bushel; 35 lbs. per acre broadcast, 6 lbs. in 18-in. drills 
Sow from May to August. It is of finer growth than sorghum and 
will produce more and better hay than millet. When sown early it 
can be cut two or three times. It is easily mowed and cures readily. 
We recommend that our customers use only Sweet Sudan Grass. 
This is a great improvement on ordinary Sudan Grass. It is a cross 
between Leota Red Sorghum and Common Sudan. It has broader 
leaves and larger stems than ordinary Sudan, and because of its sweet- 
ness it is relished by all livestock. It is destined to take the place of 
all other varieties of Sudan. Do not pasture until it is at least 2 feet 
high, because the sugar does not start setting before that height. 
We can also supply the two new strains of Sweet Sudan, Tift 
and Piper. Write for prices. 
TEOSINTE 
50 lbs. to the bushel; 4 to 6 lbs. in 3 to 314-ft. rows per acre. 
Sow from May to August in rows 3 feet apart, dropping two or 
three seeds every foot. This Central American plant bears consider- 
able resemblance to Indian corn but has broader and longer blades. 
It is of very rapid growth and will often attain a height of 12 feet. 
It produces an amazing number of shoots on each plant; in favorable 
seasons it may be cut several times. Lb. 95c; 5 Ibs. $4.50; 10 Ibs. 
$8.00, postpaid. Write for prices in larger quantities. 
AUSTRIAN WINTER PEAS 
Considered by some southern growers to be equal to hairy vetch 
as a winter hay crop or for improving the soil. In the South they 
mature earlier than vetch, making it possible to follow the Peas with 
cotton. They should be planted in September or October, and can 
usually be plowed under in time for spring crop. They may also be 
planted in February for forage crop. A bushel weighs 60 pounds. For 
an acre, when used alone, sow 60 pounds. When sown with 1 bushel 
of rye or 2 bushels of oats, use 30 pounds. Write for prices. 
CROTALARIA 
A remarkable, fast-growing legume that produces a heavy growth 
of foliage for humus. The seed should be sown from April to July, 
11% inches deep, using 6 to 8 pounds of seed per acre if planted in 
3-foot rows; or 20 to 25 pounds if sown broadcast. For best results, 
the seed should be scarified and moculated to produce quicker ger- 
mination. 
Giant Striata. One of the best varieties on account of its tremendous 
growth and seed production. Grows rapidly, choking out weeds 
and grass, and frequently will yield ten to fifteen tons of green 
manure per acre. When this is turned back into the soil with the 
nitrogen gathered by the nodules on its roots, yields of corn and 
other crops are increased enormously. (Not edible.) Lb. 50c; 
5 Ibs. $2.00; 10 Ibs. $3.50, postpaid. Write for prices in larger 
quantities.

WHEAT, Atlas 66 
COTTON 
Our Cotton Seed is treated with 2% Ceresan. Selected varieties, 
30 Ibs. to the bushel; 1 to 114 bu. per acre. 
The cultivation of Cotton varies considerably according to the 
locality and soil, but in general the ground should be prepared by 
thorough plowing and harrowing, with rows 40 to 50 inches apart, 
5 feet being allowed where the Jand is unusually rich. Seeding ts best 
done with the Cotton planter. Young plants should be thinned to 
about 18 or 20 inches In the rows; if the ground is very rich, two 
plants may be left in a hill, but otherwise only one. Frequent shallow 
cultivation is necessary to keep the surface free from crust, and 
planting should never be done until danger of frost is past. 
Certified Coker 100. Wilt Resistant. An early dwarf variety with 
well-formed fruiting branches and thin dark green foliage. The 
medium bolls are round-ovate, slightly pointed, and open wide. 
About 70 to the pound. The lint ts 11% inches in length and will 
run 36 to 38 percent. One of the best varieties for wilt-infested 
soils. The seed we offer is delinted and treated with Ceresan.

Certified Deltapine 14. One of the best varieties for soil not in- 
fested with wilt. It has good fibre quality, lg to 1% staple. Its 
excellent.staple and productiveness under adverse soil and weather 
conditions make it a most desirable sort. The seed we offer is 
delinted and treated with Ceresan. Write for prices.

INCREASE YOUR COTTON PROFITS 10 TO 20% 
Two per cent Ceresan generally protects the seed against decaying 
in cold, wet soil and the young seedlings against damping-off. A 
pound treats 5 bushels. 11% Ibs. $2.45, postpaid.
