ABOUT WARRANTING SEEDS.

“We give no warranty, expressed or implied, as to description, quality, productiveness or any other matter of any seeds, bulbs or plants we send out, and will not be in any way responsible for the crop. If the purchaser does not accept the goods on these terms, they are at once to b« returned.”

PRICE CHANGE — NOTICE TO CUSTOMERS

Owing to market changes on a great many Seeds, it is impossible to name prices in Catalogue that will hold good through the entire season, on everything. We want every customer to feel that when they send us an order, that we will give them the very best price possible, and the highest quality seeds.

Prices in tMs Catalogue are what we think they will be at planting time, but some crops are not harvested at the time this Catalogue is printed, so we do not know what

the returns from these crops will be; therefore, it is im- possible to name exactly the price. When you send in your order feel sure that if prices are cheaper than those quoted in Catalogue, we will give you your money’s worth or refund you the difference; and if they are some higher, we will cut your order down to the amount of your remittance.

SEND YOUR ORDERS to an Honest, Fair-Dealing, Re- , lible SEED HOUSE and get Fresh, Pure Seeds.

BEANS

No crop responds more readily than Beans to good soil and cultivation. A light, rich, well-drained loam which was manured for the previous crop is the most desirable. If too rank manure is used, it is apt to make the plant run too much to vine.

Beans are very sensitive to both cold and wet, and it is useless to plant them before the ground has become dry and warm. The largest returns will result from planting in drills from two to three feet apart. Cover the seed one and one-half to two inches deep and ‘hin the young plants three to six inches apart in the row. If planted in hills, make the hills about two feet apart each way. For succes- sion, plant at intervals of one to two weeks till midsummer. The plants up to the time of blossoming should have fre- quent shallow cultivation, but any mutilation of the roots by cultivation after the plants come into bloom is likely to cause the blooms to blast and so cut oflE the crop. Culti- vation should always be very shallow, and it is useless to expect a crop from a field so poorly prepared as to need deep stirring after planting.

CABBAGE

Special Prices on One Hundred Pound Lots to Plant Growers.

For many years cabbage seed has been a leading specialty with us. Our cabbage seeds are all grown from approved stock seeds which are largely of our own development; they are all grown under our per- sonal inspection and supervision. We believe there is no seed that is more reliable, nor any that can be more implicitly depended upon to give planters uniformly satisfactory results.

The requisites for complete success with cabbage are. First, good seed. In this crop the quality of the seed used is of the greatest importance. No satisfactory results can possibly be obtained when poor seed is planted. Second, rich, well-prepared ground. A heavy, moist and rich loam is most suitable. Third, frequent and thorough cultivation. The ground should be highly manured and worked deep. Cabbage is grown all over the country, and specific directions regarding the time and methods of planting appli- cable to all localities cannot be given. In general, north of the fortieth parallel the early sorts should be sown very early in hotbeds, hardened off by gradually exposing them to the night air and transplanted as early as the ground is in good condition, setting 18 to 36 inches apart, according to size of variety. South of the fortieth parallel sow about the middle of September, or later, according to latitude, transplanting into cold-frames if necessary to keep through winter and setting in open ground as early as possible in the spring.

The late autumn and winter varieties may be sown the middle to the last of spring and transplanted when four to six inches high. If the weather and soil are dry, the late sowings should be shaded and watered, in order to hasten germination, but it is important that the plants should not be shaded or crowded in the seed-bed, or they will run up weak and slender and will not endure transplanting well. Cabbage should be hoed every week and the ground stirred as they advance in growth, drawing up a little earth to the plants each time until they begin to head, when they should be thoroughly cultivated and left to mature. Loosening the roots will sometimes retard

the bursting of full-grown heads.

A great many of the varieties of cabbage are simply strains rather than distinct sorts, and are really the same as some older and better known kinds. We are confident that every good quality can be found in a greater degree in the varieties we offer than in any other kinds.

EVERETT’S SELECT CARROT

CULTURE. — This vegetable requires a deep, rich, light, sandy soil, well-manured. If the ground is not of this quali- ty, it should be dug deep and well broken the year previous. If for field culture, the ground should be subsoiled, as in all shallow or hard soils the roots fork or spread in a lateral direction, injuring both their size and quality. Sow early in spring, in shallow drills, half_ an inch deep and nine to twelve inches apart, which admits of the hoe being made use of in thinning out crop and clearing out weeds. As soon as plants are up and can be distinctly observed in rows, take a three- inch hoe and thin out to two or three inches apart.

^ most excellent, medium early, half long variety. It is one of the best V/JlaIlX6Ild.y in quality for the market and home garden, while its great productiveness and the ease with which it can be harvested make it desirable as a field sort. The tops are medium sized with small neck. The mature roots are thick, five and one-half to six inches in length, uniformly half long or stump rooted, but tapering slightly, smooth, deep orange red in color. The flesh is very crisp and tender. Although a medium early sort, the roots are suitable for use nearly as early as any. The variety is extensively used for bunching.

Country Gentleman Sweet Com.

SWEET, or TABLE CORN

A rich, warm, alluvial soil is the best, but excellent sweet com can be raised on any good, ordinary soil, if it is deeply and thoroughly worked before planting. In the South sweet corn may be planted as early as can be done without risk- ing great loss from frosts or from rotting of the seed in the soil, but with the main crop varieties especially it is well to wait until the ground has become warm, as the sweeter varieties are more sensitive to cold and wet than field corn or varieties of inferior quality.

If planted in rows, make the rows three to four feet apart, according to the vigor of growth of the variety, and place the seed twelve to sixteen inches apart in the rows, cover- ing one inch deep with fine soil firmly pressed down.

If planted in hills make the hills for the early varieties three feet apart each way and plant four to six kernels to the hill. For the later sorts the hills should be three and one-half to four feet apart each way. Hoe frequently, and when six inches high thin so as to leave three or four plants in the hill. Give frequent and thorough, but shallow, cultivation until the tassels appear.

CUCUMBER

This is one of the vegetables that can be Perfect, grown to perfection by any one who can con- trol a few square yards of reasonably good soil^ that is fully exposed to the sun. Every family should be supplied from its own garden, since the fruit is so much better when gath- ered fresh from the vines as desired for use than it is in the more or less wilted condition in which it is found on the market. In order to obtain the largest yield of cucumbers, the soil should be well enriched with well-rotted manure, but an abundance of good fruit can be raised on any rich garden soil. Plant the seed not over an inch deep in hills four to six feet apart each way, dropping fifteen to twenty seeds in a hill. After the plants begin to crowd, thin to three plants to the hill.

Give frequent but shallow cultivation until the plants make runners so long that this is impracticable. In field culture, plow furrows four feet apart and similar ones at right angles to the first. At each intersection drop a shovelful or more of well-rotted manure, which should be well mixed with the soil. Pick the fruit as soon as it is large enough and before it begins to ripen, as the vines will cease setting fruit as soon as any seed be- gins to mature. In gathering for pickles, cut the stem, in- stead of pulling the fruit off, and be careful not to mar the fruit in any way, for if the skin be broken the pickles will not keep so well.

They may be had at all seasons of the year. The earliest sowings should be made in a hotbed or in boxes indoors, hardened off and set out 8 to 12 inches apart in 18-inch rows. For a succession sow every three weeks. Sowings may be made in open ground early in the spring and the plants thinned out. For fall use, sow in July and August. Fall sowings of hardy kinds should be made in September; protect with straw or litter and they will head up in the spring, or transplant 9 inches apart under glass or canvas to head up in the winter. One ounce will produce about 1500 plants; 3 lbs. will make plants enough tor an acre.

EVERETT SEED COMPANY, ATLANTA, GEORGL\

ONIONS

CULTURE. — E®r home use onion seed or sets should be planted in any good garden soil just as early as the ground can be worked to advantage in the spring. Ground should be thoroughly broken, well fertilized or manured and then worked down very fine, all trash, clods or grass roots being removed. The use of sets is absolutely unnecessary except as a matter of earl'iifess. Where well shaped, long keeping, marketable onions are desired plant the seed instead of sets, as the seed makes much better onions in every respect. Sow one ounce of sed'd to 200 feet of row; four or five pounds per acre. Sets vary considerably in size, but the average will run about one pound of sets to 100 feet of row. Onions from seed will mature in 100 to 140 days, according to va- riety; from sets in from 80 to 100 days.

Cover seed in clay or heavy soils about Vi inch; in sandy soils 1 inch. If weather and soil is dry firm the soil after planting; heavy or clay soils should not be firmed when wet. As soon as seed is well up begin a light surface cultivation and keep this up every week or ten days. Never let grass and weeds get a start, for young onion plants choked with weeds or grass die down in the “set” size and will have to be held over until the following fall. Cultivation (always shallow) should be kept up until bulbs are well formed and matured as indicated by the dying down or dropping over of the tops. When matured dig or plow up and store in a dry place, leaving tops on until you are ready to use or market them.

SHALLOTS

(EARLY SPRING GREEN ONIONS)

No home garden is complete without a few rows of multi- plying shallots. Any good onion soil will produce shallots, but good rich soil is preferable, because this kind of soil will make much larger and nicer shallots. The culture is about the same as other onions. They grow and multiply very rapidly. Stand a great deal more cold than other onions. Should be planted during August and September, and ready for table or market early in January to April. Can only supply t-hese in fall from August to October 1st. Postpaid, 25c per lb.; 10-lb. lots, 20c per lb. Not prepaid, 100-lb. lots, 15c per lb.

EVERETT’S SELECT PEAS

Sow as early as possible a few of some early variety in warm, quick soil, prepared the fall before, planting in double rows six to eight inches apart and two and one-half to four feet between the double rows. The general crop can be delayed until later, but we have met with better success from sowing all the varieties comparatively early, depending for succession upon selecting sorts that follow each other in maturity.

The peas will give quicker returns if covered only one inch deep, and where earliness is most important they may be treated in that way. Larger pods and more of them will be produced if the seed be planted in trenches three to six inches deep and covered with only one or two inches of soil. When the plants are five or six inches high fill the trench level with the surface. This will secure deep rooting, prevent mildew and prolong the bearing season. If the peas be covered to the full depth at first, or if water be allowed to stand in the

trenches they will not germinate or grow well.

The wrinkled varieties are more sensitive to cold, wet weather than the smooth-seeded sorts, but are of superior quality.

The crop should be gathered as fast as it is fit for use. If even a few pods

begin to ripen, not only will new pods cease to form, but those partly advanced

will stop growing.

PUMPKIN

Pumpkins are less sensitive than melons or cucumbers to unfavorable conditions of soil and climate, but are culti- vated the same, though on a larger scale. They are raised between hills of corn or in fields by themselves, but more properly belong to the farm than the garden, as they readily mix with and injure the quality of the finer squash. After danger of frost is over plant the seed in hills eight to ten feet apart each way, dropping about a dozen seeds in a bill. The soil should be made as rich as possible. If planted with corn two or three seeds a rod apart each way will be sufficient. When danger from bugs is past thin to three plants to a hill.

EVERETT’S HIGH-GRADE TOMATOES

CULTURE.— Six or eight weeks before frost is over sow in hotbeds, in pots or shallow boxes in the house, and when they have made four leaves transplant in the beds to promote root growth. Expose as much as possible to harden them, so that when set out on the open ground they will be strong and stocky; but do not allow the growth to be checked. Transplant 3 to 4 feet apart in a light, warm soil, and cultivate as long as possi- ble. When transplanted puddle the plants and shade them a few days until they are well rooted. The earliest fruits may be had by growing in pots, shifting to larger pots as they become filled with roots. Earliness may also be promoted by pinching off all the branches except the one most thrifty and tying this and the main stem to stakes.

Spark’s Earliana gri'ani“i,®lrebabiy

TURNIP AND RUTABAGA

CULTURE.— Spring sowings should be made as early as possible, so that the turnips may make their size before hot weather; otherwise they will become tough and bitter. For spring sowings there is nothing equal to the Milans, the Purple Top Globes, Purple Top Strapleaved, Early Strap leaf White Globe and White Flat Dutch. For the regular crop sow the early kinds in July and August, the later sorts during August, and the salad varieties during August or Sep- tember. Sow either broadcast or in drills 2 feet apart, and when well up thin out to prevent overcrowding. Rutabagas should be sown in July or early in August and earthed up as they grow.

To Keep for Winter. — Store the roots in a cool cellar and cover with sand, or they may be put into pits or kilns out- side. Select a well-drained situation on which to pile the turnips, cover them with a few inches of straw and then suffi-

cient earth to keep out frost. Thus protected, they will keep far into the winter.

EVERETT’S SEED CORN— Extra Selected

SOME FACTS ABOUT SEED CORN

You know yourself that it is certainly a hard job to BREED AND SELECT the right kind of seed corn. To begin with, you must have pure-bred . stock, then it must be grown a-way from all other kinds, for it is very easily mixed. Probably it would not show up the first season, but it would the NEXT, regardless of HOW MUCH PAINS you took in the selecting.

We have taken special pains to see that the corn we sell will not only make what it is supposed to, but yield more than most any corn, for it has been bred up from good to better and from better to best. We are going to try and make it better every year — If this be possible. You want the corn that makes

the largest yield per acre.

Everetf s Champion Prolific Corn

“The South’s Most Prolific Corn.” By tests and trials on many varieties “Everett’s Champion Prolific” has proven superior in every case. Makes from 5 to 7 ears per stalk, and the grain fills out over the end of the ear, giving you absolutely no waste. Grains are beautiful, clear white, and makes the finest meal you ever saw. Stalks are tall and very stout, wind storms not blowing it down, and makes a fine silage variety. We will have the finest stock this season we have ever had, and hope to supply the demand of our customers this season; this we have never done before, for the demand has always exceeded our supply. Place your order early, so that we may be able to get yours to you when you need It.

MADE 100 BUSHELS PER ACRE EASY.

We received the following letter from one of our custom- ers, and there are numbers of just such satisfied customers.

If you don’t put something into your soil to build it up you can’t hope to get much out of it.

CUT YOUR FERTILIZER BILL

By planting Dean’s 0-Too-Tan soy beans, the greatest soil builder the world has ever known. One plant of these wondeful beans will put ten times mo.re Bacteria in your soil than any other legume known to the present age.

Plant them in every foot of your corn land. They positively will not climb on your corn and you will average ten bushels more corn per acre than you would without them, b^esides, adding hundreds of dollars in value to your land. It only requires about 3 to 4 lbs. to seed as acre in corn. See page 40. A FARMER POSITIVELY CANNOT AFFORD NOT TO PLANT THEM.

TO THE COTTON GROWER :

Some of you have doubtless been growing cotton longer than we have been in business, and we are not presuming to dictate to you in any way. Neither are we presuming to tell you not to raise cotton. We want to see you raise cotton— the world must have it— but let us suggest that you plan your crops in a business-like manner by setting aside so much of your land for each particular thing. We want to see every farmer in the Southland grow all the corn, wheat, oats, rye, barley, hay, potatoes, peanuts, peas, beans, meat, syrup, vegetables, poultry, eggs and butter on his farm that is necessary to run his farm and all of his tenants, and then have some of every one of the above mentioned, and possibly many other products, to sell. Then plant cotton.

“DON’T PUT ALL OF YOUR EGGS IN ONE BASKET.”

Then if cotton is not bringing a fair price above the cost to produce it, you won’t have to sell until you get good and ready. It is almost a sure thing that the market price won’t be below cost of production on all the above named articles when you are ready to sell. Then you have the privilege of selling which- ever one is bringing the best price at the time, and you can then demand a fair price for your cotton.

Now, let us suggest the importance of good seed and preparation of your land for all crops. First, it is vitally important that you have the BEST and PUREST types of new, fresh seed that it is possible to obtain. Discard all the old, worn-out and run-down seed you have been planting for years, and get new, fresh stock of pure strains.

Second; Prepare your land just as though you were going to plant a small Prize Patch. If you can grow two bales of cotton on a Prize Patch acre, or a hundred bushels of corn on a Prize Patch acre why not prepare the entire crop the same way and reduce the number of acres, thereby saving a consider- able amount of extra labor cost and work for yourselves, and at the same time double your production? In other words, you can make one acre of land produce what two, and in most cases, what three acres have produced in the past, and you know it costs twice as much to plow two acres as it does one. This can be done by building up your lands to the highest state possible by planting legumes to feed and build up the soil. In conclusion, let us say there is nothing known as a soil builder that can equal our DEAN’S O-TOO-TAN SOY BEAN, the greatest of all the legumes. See page 40.

EVERETT’S CLEVELAND BIG BOLL COTTON

The Record Bearing Variety

Our special strain of WANNAMAKER’S PEDI- GREED CLEVELAND BIG BOLL COTTON is the most universally popular, and is without doubt the best early maturing big boll cotton ever developed up to the present time, and will come nearer meeting all requirements under boll weevil conditions.

It makes a medium size stalk, has strong sturdy branches. It fruits heavily and begins early; foliage rather light, letting in sunshine which causes it to open up early, thereby help- ing to beat the boll weevil. It is easy to pick and does not fall out. Lints about 38 to 40 per cent. The lint is of good length, averaging a fraction over an inch, and is of fine texture.

There is nothing better than Cleveland Big Boll.

On reasonably good land you can easily make a bale per acre. Farmers are doing it every yea*r, and some are making a good deal more.

Discard your old seed and order some of our new, fresh, pure strain of PEDIGREED CLEVELAND BIG BOLL, recleaned seed, grown in a high altitude which will insure you of an early crop. Postpaid, lb. 25c; 5 lbs. $1.00.

Not prepaid, bushel $2.50; 5-bus. lots, $2.40 per bushel; 10-bus. lots, $2.35 per bushel; 100-bus. lots, $2.25 per bushel.

Rucker’s Early Big Boll

In the northern part of Georgia where the season for growing cotton is very short, the farmers have had great difficulties in getting the big boll type of cotton to mature and open before frost. Some years ago Mr. Rucker begun breeding the very earliest types with the best types of big boll varieties, and has at last real- ized his ambition to have a very early variety of Big Boll 5-lock cotton that will mature in the short season sections, and now since the boll weevil has infested practically the entire belt, this cotton has become very popular in every section wherever it has been grown on account of its earliness and heavy yielding ability under adverse and boll weevil condi- tions. It has very strong rigorous stalk. Limbs

College Number One

A study of the different varieties of cotton reveals the fact that there is no one variety better suited for all the conditions within the cotton belt. After years of study and testing practically all of the leading varieties, and especially to help the farmers of Georgia and other states, the Georgia State College of Agriculture at Athens, Ga., has brought out this celebrated and distinct variety of early and large boll cotton as being the most ideal cotton for boll weevil sections, which is now practically the entire cotton belt.

Farmers who have been planting it for several years say they nearly always get enough full grown and practically matured boll on this cotton to insure them a bale per acre before Mr. Boll Weevil gets started. It makes a good large healthy and strong stalk. Limbs grow out very near the ground and fruits heavily and being of a very early variety, the large bolls mature and open very quickly. It is easily picked, but does not fall out to any extent. The College tests show it to average about 40 per cent lint. The staple averages from 1 to 1 1-16 inch length, and is of a very fine quality. This cotton seed very scarce. Write us for prices.

Brown’s Number Four

For many years Brown’s No. 1 has been one of the lead- ing varieties of large boll cotton, and was Used very largely in the Mississippi Deltas and western part of tlie cotton belt. At the very first appearance of the boll weevil in Texas, Mr. Brown immediately set out to produce a cotton that would combine all the good qualities of his No. 1 and to mature earlier. After seven years’ breeding, he offers his latest development in Brown’s No. 4, his own ideal. Large, strong, vigorous stalk. Limbs out close to ground. Fruits heavily with large bolls from bottom to top. Foliage rather light and open. Lints 38 to 40 per cent. Length of staple, one inch, and is of excellent quality. Under the most adverse conditions any farmer ever had to contend with, Mr. Brown’s fields are producing a bale or more per acre.

All seed are ginned on Mr. Brown’s own private gins, and you are absolutely sure to get the original and pure Brown’s No. 4 from us. Thousands of satisfied farmers are planting k. Postpaid, lb. 25c; 5 lbs. $1.00. Not prepaid, bushel

King’s Improved Extra Early

This is considered by all the earliest variety of cotton grown, and is extensively grown in the northern or short season districts of the cotton belt, and under present boll weevil conditions it is gaining in popularity over a consid- erable part of the cotton belt on account of its earliness and prolificness. The bolls are small, and it is a four-lock type, lints about 35 to 37 per cent, and staple about % inch. Stalk is medium size. Foliage very light and open, thereby causing the bolls to mature and open very quickly. Our seed stock of this is grown in the extreme northern part of North Carolina, and is all recleaned seed, packed in 100-lb. bags. From the inquiries we are now having about this, the earliest of all cottons, we anticipate a very heavy de- mand for this seed. Get your order in early. Postpaid, lb. 25c; 5 lbs. $1.00.

Meade Upland, Long Staple Cotton

Meade cotton is a new variety of upland long staple cot- ton, developed and recommended by the U. S. Department of Agriculture as a substitute for Sea Island cotton. Meade cotton is blight resistant and may be grown successfully anywhere in the cotton belt. It matures as early and pro- duces as much lint, under similar conditions, as short staple cotton. It has the longest staple and is the best variety of long staple cotton to plant — grow under boll weevel con- ditions.

Meade cotton does best on sandy loam soils. The staple will range in length from 1^ to 154 inches and usually sells for one and one-half to twice as much as short staple cotton.

The supply of genuine Meade cotton seed is limited. Our seed was grown especially for us on St. Simon’s Island, Georgia, far removed from any other variety of cotton, and is therefore as pure as can be had. Prices, postpaid, lb. 25c; 5 'lbs. $1.00. Not prepaid, bushel $3.75; 5-bushel lots, $3.50; 10-bushel lots. $3.40; 100-bushel lots, $3.25 per bushel.

EVERETT’S HIGH-GRADE CLOVER SEED

FOR PREPARATION OF GROUND AND SEEDING— See Full Description Given Under “GRASSES”— This Is Complete.

Al-fal-fa Most Profitable Crop— Yields 4 to 5 Cut-

All<llla tings a Year. For successful results with Alfalfa it should be sown, however, on reasonably good land, and the soil given thorough preparation and well limed. These conditions are absolutely necess^iry for suc- cess with this crop. The spring seeding of Alfalfa, while quite generally practiced, is not considered as good as the fall seed- ing. It can be satisfactorily sown during March or April, but is more largely sown during August and September. Our tests and experi- ments with Alfalfa show conclusively that American-grown seed is very much better than the imported seed. In re- cent years very large quantities of Turkestan Alfalfa have been brought and sold in this country, simply as “alfalfa seed.” The crop from this does not stand as well nor give as good results as that from American-grown seed, and we would recommend to our customers to always obtain the American-grown seed, which' we offer. After Alfalfa is once established it lasts for years, yielding as much as four or five cuttings per season of most excellent and nu- tritious hay, which is readily salable at top prices. It is better to have five acres well set in Alfalfa with thorough preparation than to attempt to put in ten acres without first-class preparation. Allfalfa will do well on any good loam soil, but the land must be well and thoroughly pre- pared. A heavy application of lime is usually considered of decided benefit, the most successful raisers of Alfalfa using from 2,000 to 5,000 pounds per acre. It is preferable to sow Alfalfa on land that has a porous or gravelly sub- soil that the roots can penetrate. Alfalfa is a deep-rooting plant and will give best results on soils of this character.

Best Time and Methods of Seedi^.— Alfalfa can be ad- vantageously sown in this section in the spring, any time during March or April. Further South earlier seedings are advisable. A satisfactory stand secured from spring seed- ing will furnish one or two good cuttings this year, and full cuttings the following year. Alfalfa should always be cut before coming into full bloom, and from seed sown either in the fall or spring the first cutting should be made even before it reaches this stage of development. Cutting thickens Alfalfa, provided it is done before the plant at- tains its full growth, and it not only makes a better quality hay, but causes it to stool out better, thus thick- ening the root growth and improving the stooling-out properties. The seed is usually sown broadcast at the rate of 20 to 30 pounds to the acre. When sown in the fall, August and September are the best months for seeding. A firm seed bed is of first importance. For full informa- tion in regard to preparation in this connection we would call attention to the information given under the head- ing of “Seeding Grasses and Clover,” page 33.

Our “Esco” Brand Alfalfa Seed is all American-grown and of best qualities obtainable, testing high percentages, both of germination and purity, and it is also entirely free from dodder.

valuable qualities of Sweet Clover is its ability to im- prove the quality of soil which it is sown on. This is ac- complished by the large root extending below the usual depth of plowings, breaking it thoroughly and decaying rapidly, and adds a large amount of humus to that portion. It thrives in all parts of the South — thriving under most any conditions. Do not plant it on fresh-plowed ground, but on well-packed ground, and use disc harrow or spring- tooth harrow when planting.

It is the standard hay, pas- turage and soil-improving crop wherever general farming is practiced. Red Clover will yield crops two or three years from one seeding, and on good land will yield two cuttings per year. Red Clover should be cut for hay when in full

bloom. For hay it is par- ticularly well adapted for sowing with Orchard and Tall Meadow Oat Grass, as it ripens at the same time, and sowing these three grasses together will give larger yields and of better quality hay than sowing either alone. One bushel of Orchard Grass, one bushel Tall Meadow Oat Grass and eight lbs. of Clover will give excel- lent results, and if it is desired to use the land for pasturage also the addi- tion of six lbs. of Herd’s Grass or Red Top will in- crease the pasturage and the second cutting of hay considerably.

Southern Burr Clover

soil-improving and winter grazing crop, growing luxuri- antly all through the winter and until summer. After once being seeded, it reseeds itself and improves in growth and appearance each succeeding year. It is admirably adapted for use with Bermuda Grass, and the combina- tion of the two makes a splendid all-the-year-round pas- turage. It is also well adapted for use in regular pas- turages, and will give a considerable increase in the quan- tity of pasturage just at a time when it is most appre- ciated. The plant matures its seed early in the spring, and produces seed abundantly after the first year, and nc reseeding is necessary, unless the clover has been pas- ftired so closely as to prevent it from maturing seed. When sown on Bermuda Grass sod the sod must be sacri- ficed to give the clover a chance to get its roots in the soil below the layer of Bermuda roots. This scarifying is also beneficial to the Bermuda Grass. Burr Clover pro- duces its seeds in slender, prickly pods, which come spirally wound up into a ball or boll.

Treatment of Seed for Planting.— So many people have trouble in securing a stand. You can have a success by the following method, which has been tried out by ex- periment stations all over the country and by ourselves: Have two pails of water, or tubs of water, one cold or cool water, the other hot or scalding water. First dip or soak your seed in the cold water for one hour or more; then transfer to the hot water, allowing it to remain only one minute; then put back in the cold water and let it remain about 20 minutes. This restores the inoculation which is taken out of the burr when first put in the cold water. After this spread in the shade, allowing it to dry so that you can sow it.

Grass and Clovers of all kinds are being more generally sown for hay, pasturage and soil-improving crops than any other legume crops or other grasses and forage crops.

Clover not only makes fine hay, but improves your land to such an extent it more than pays for itself twice in fertilizer cost the following year. Lime is very necessary for success with Clovers; an application of from 1,000 to 5,000 pounds will add much to its growth.

Seeding Grasses and Clover Seeds

The best time in the spring is from the middle of February to the middle of April. A good, firm seed-bed is of prime importance, and to secure this the ground should be well and deeply plowed some time previous to seeding if possible. It should then be har- rowed and reharrowed several times, so as to put it in first-class condition. After the ground is in good tilth, the seed should be carefully sown, either by hand or using the Cyclone Broadcast Seed Sowers, and then cover by rolling, or, if a roller is not avail- able, by a light or brush-drawn harrow. Roll- ing is, however, preferable, as it firms the soils and does not cover the seed too deep. Our Standard Bone Meal is the best fertilizer you can apply for grass and clover, as they are immediate and also lasting in their effect.

Grass and clover seeds can be satisfactorily sown with spring oats or other grain crops in the spring, but when sown in this way, the oats or other grain should not be sown as thickly as ordinarily, and it is better to cut the grain crops before they are fully matured, in order to give grass, crops full chance for development.

' Sowing Grass and Clover Seeds in the Spring on Grain

I Which Was Sown Last Fall. — Grass and clover seeds can be

; satisfactorily sown in the spring on fall-sown grain crops,

I and the grain crops are materially benefited by the pre,'’-ra-

tion necessary for covering the grass seed. The best method is to run a harrow over the wheat, oats or other grain crop,

I then sow the seed, and then run the harrow crosswise over

I the field, so as to give slight covering. This harrowing and

cross-harrowing does not injure the grain crops, but really benefits them, acting as a cultivation for these crops. A good, firm seed-bed is also secured for the grass and clover seeds. Our experience with grass and clover sown in this way has been very satisfactory, both as regards increased yrain crops and a good stand of the grass. A top dressing of 200 to 300 pounds of fertilizer to the acre can be applied at the same time the grass is sown very beneficially.

Fall Seeding of Grass and Clover Seeds. — September is the best month for seeding grasses and clover in the fall, although they can be safely put in up to the middle of October. If sown after that time, it is better to defer

sowing clover until the spring, although Orchard Grass, Tall Meadow Oat Grass, Red Top or Herds Grass, Timothy and similar grasses can be satisfactorily put in up to the first of November in the eastern part of the Carolinas and further South.

‘‘ESCO” EVERGREEN LAWN GRASS

WILL GIVE YOU A PERMANENT LAWN THE ENTIRE YEAR, WITH THE PROPER ATTEN- TION AND SEEDING

SOWING THE SEEDS.— Thick seeding always gives best results. Lawn grass seed should be sown after the soil is raked fine at the rate of 40 to 50 pounds to the acre, or. for small yards, one pound for every 200 square feet (10x20). The seed should be carefully and evenly sown, and lightly raked in, and afterwards, provided the soil is not wet, rolled or made firm by batting down with the back of a spade.

Our mixture contains only the grasses best suited for this climate, and only those which have been tried out and proven to be the best. Great trouble has been had in get- ting the right kind of grasses to stand green all the year round. This mixture has been proven to be the best by test, here in Atlatna, on lawns where most other grasses have died after one season. Price, postpaid, lb. 45c; 4 lbs. 40c

Carpet Grass or Paspalum Platy-Caule

This grass grows tenaciously in any sandy soil. Excellent for lawn or pasture purposes on the Gulf Coast and all sandy land and grows equally as well on clay uplands. Green all the year in lower Gulf States. It stools heavily and parent stalk in nineteen months will spread several feet in circumference. Blades are wide and give fine foli- age, and when well set forms a thick green carpet that cannot be uprooted by any amount of grazing. In the Gulf Coast country the grass known as carpet grass has for a number of years been attracting considerable attention for use upon lawns. It has a habit of growth very similar to Bermuda grass and under same conditions it thrives and maintains itself to even a greater extent than does the Bermuda grass. This grass is easily eradicated and one year’s cultivation of the turf in any other crop will en- tirely eradicate it. Sow in spring, February to April; f-j.ll, August to October, 5 to 10 pounds mixed with sand for hand sowing will set an acre. Price by mail, postpaid, lb. 50c; 5 lbs. $2.00; 10 lbs. $3.75.

Everett’s Permanent Pasture Mixture

For Low and Moist Lands. For several years the Agri- cultural College and County Agents have been working to produce a better all year round permanent pasture and after hundreds of tests of a'll known grasses, have arrived at a formula, which has proven by actual test to be the best permanent pasture mixture for low and moist lands ever produced in Georgia and is generally recommended for the entire South. Have your land_ thoroughly prepared and fertilized. See our instructions on preparing land and seeding of grasses and clover. Sow 20 to 25 pounds per acre. Can be sown in early fall, although we advise sow- ing in early spring from February first to April for best results. Price by mail, postpaid, 'lb. 45c; 5 lbs. $2.00;

Orchard Grass.

Dallas Grass or (Paspalum Dilatatum)

Very little was known of this splendid grass until a few years ago when the large cattle and dairying interests, in connection with our Agricultural college at Athens, Ga., begun to experiment to find out just what are the best grazing and permanent grasses for the South, and they now recommend Dallas grass very highly, and especially so in permanent pasture mixtures for low lands. It is gen- erally recommended for the entire cotton belt. It may be cut two or three times a year and makes splendid green feed and hay. It increases very rapidly. It stands close grazing. Trampling and grazing seems to do it good and it is not injured by frost. It is very hardy and thrives best on a heavy and somewhat moist soil. It is a peren- nial and starts early in spring and makes continuous growth till frost. Grows 3 to 5 feet tall. Can be sown in eahly fall although we recommend sowing it in this section in early spring, about February 1st to April 1st. Sow 6 to 10 lbs. on well prepared land. Price by mail, postpaid, 55c per lb.; 5 lbs. $2.50; 10 lbs. $4.75. Not prepaid, 10 lbs. $4.25; 100 lbs. $40.00.

'Rarinii/1a firaoo While looked upon by many as a

■*^'^*“*^^** 'JLd’Oo pest, it is really one of our most valuable grass plants ^ for the South, and in the lower South especially. It is the only sure pasture ^ass for sandy soils; grows on all kinds of soil from heaviest clay

to the lightest sand and furnishes abundant pasture. No other grass will give you so great returns with as little fertilizer and care, and Bermuda withstands drought and scorching summer sun better than any other variety. Seed

should be sown at the rate of 8 to 10 pounds per acre be- tween March 1st and June 1st. Seed will not germinate when ground is cold. Under favorable conditions it re- quires from 20 to 30 days to germinate. Postpaid, lb. 60c; 5 lbs. 55c lb. By express, 10 lbs. 45c lb.; 100 'lbs. 40c lb.

Kentucky Blue Grass Su

for Its Fine Horses and Cattle and Prosperous Fanning Country. Kentucky Blue Grass is one of 'the richest and most nutritious of pasturage grasses, and should be largely used in all pasturage mixtures, except on very light or sandy soils. For fall, winter and spring it makes the very best of pasturage, and mixed with other grasses, like Herd’s Grass or Red Top and Meadow Fescue, will give an excellent all - the - year - round pasturage. In fact, a good Blue Grass pasture is considered to improve from year to year, and on land where it is well adapted rarely ever requires re-seeding. Kentucky Blue Grass can be sown either in the spring or fall. It grows rather slowly at first, but soon forms a compact turf, making a fine permanent pasturage when once established. A thick, well-set sod of Blue Grass is usually considered an ideal pasturage, both for nutritious qualities and yield, and wherever Blue Grass succeeds it should be one of the principal constituents of all pasture mixtures. Blue Grass being a little slower to become well set than other grasses, it is also a good plan to sow some Perennial Rye Grass with it when sowing in the fall. It should be sown at the rate of 40 to 50 pounds per acre. Postpaid, lb. 50c; 5 lbs. 45c lb. By express, 10 lbs. 40c lb.; 100 lbs. 35g per lb.

Perennial (or English Rye)

maturing grass, which furnishes good grazing and hay, and does well in mixtures with grasses like Orchard and Tall Meadow Oat. It makes the quickest ^owth of any of the grasses, and for a grass to make a quick, leafy sod will give the most satisfactory results. When sown by itself, sow 30 pounds per acre, either in the spring or fall. Fall seeding, however, gives best results. Post- paid, lb. 30c; 5 lbs. 25c lb.

nriirinflTTr ^ grass suitable only for the northern

XllliUtlij part of the South, especially hill and moun- tain districts. It is the standard hay crop in the North, and makes one of the most popular, nutritious and salable of hay grasses. It does not make such good pasturage, but the hay crop is great where it is well adapted, on clay or heavy loams, lowlands or in mountain districts, although it will do well on any good, stiff, loamy soil, provided moisture is abundant. “Red Top or Herd’s Grass” and “Meadow Fescue” mature at the same time as Tim- othy and do well in mixture with Timothy. They will increase the yield of hay and will largely increase the yield and value of pasturage. Postpaid, lb. 30c; 5 lbs.

Red Top or Herd’s Grass

Coast. Red Top or Herd’s Grass is one of the best and most satisfactory grasses all through the South. It is well adapted to all soils and situations, succeeding well on light, sandy soils, as well as stiff upland and low- ground, and it really succeeds better in moist situations than almost any other grass. Red Top or Herd’s Grass is really one of the most valuable of all grasses for the South and it should be a large constituent part of all mixtures intended for permanent hay or pasture, and while it lasts a long time and spreads rapidly, it is easily eradicated in case it is desired to put the land in cultivated crops. It makes excellent pasturage and good crops of fine quality hay. It is rather late in starting in the spring and matures its crops at the same time as Timothy. Is excellently adapted for seeding with Timothy for hay, and furnishes excellent pasturage afterward. When it gets well estab- lished it spreads and will gradually supplant other grasses. Red Top or Herd’s Grass is also one of the best grasses for hillsides or lands likely to wash. Our Fancy Clean Red Top is of extra fine quality, and carefully cleaned for impurities. It requires from 8 to 10 pounds to seed an acre of the Fancy Cleaned seed. When sowing with Timothy, sow 6 pounds of the Fancy Cleaned seed and 8 pounds of Timothy per acre. It can be sown either in the spring or fall. Red Top or Herd’s Grass has turned out a more plentiful crop the past season than for several years past, enabling the seed to be sold this year at reasonable prices. This is a great boon to our farm operators, as we really regard Red Top or Herd’s Grass as one of the best of all grasses for use throughout the Southern States. Postpaid, lb. 40c; 5 lbs. 35c.

Tall Meadow Oat Grass (S‘5

the most valuable grasses for the South. Early maturing, large yielding and valuable in combination with orchard grass both for hay and grazing. Especially desirable and adaptable to the South. Withstands heat and drought of mid-summer and cold of winter, starts very early in the spring and continues to give good grazing until late in the fall. For hay it can be cut twice in a season. Its nutritive qualities are first class. It ripens at the same time as Orchard Grass, and gives the very best results sown with it and Red Clover. For hay it should be cut while in bloom. Tall Meadow Oat Grass is best adapted for good loamy uplands, but gives excellent results on nearly all soils and better results than any other grrass on light, medium or sandy soils. When sown by itself sow at the rate of two to three bushels per acre, either in the spring or fall. Sown with Orchard Grass and Red Clover, the quantities usually sown are one bushel (11 lbs.) Tall Meadow Oat Grass, one bushel (14 lbs.) Orchard Grass and 8 lbs. Red Clover. The addition of 6 or 7 pounds Fancy Clean Red Top or Herd’s Grass seed to the acre in this mixture increases the aftermath and the yield of grazing.

Orrltar/I flracc (Dactylls Glome rat a). Orchard vyilxuaiu VJiaoD Grass is a very vigorous grower, and yields large crops of excellent and most nutritious hay, and will last for years in increasing value with proper treatment. It is succulent and nutritious, and when mowed requires only “a few days of seasonable weather to start it growing again, and usually two good crops of hay can be cut in a season. Orchard Grass is also exceedingly adapted as a pasture grass, and also succeeds in shady situations, such as orchards, parks, etc..

better than most other grasses. Orchard Grass succeeds and grows upon nearly all soils that are not saturated with wa- ter. Matures early, and is exceedingly adapted for sowing with Tall Meadow Oat Gr<ass and Red Clover, and this mixture is very highly recommended. Orchard (>rass fields can be kept in a continuous state of productiveness, pro- vided a light seeding is made early each spring; should any bare spots appear in the field, an occasional top dress- ing of manure during the winter or ground bone or fer- tilizer early in the spring will fully maintain its produc- tiveness. Orchard Grass can be sown either in the spring or fall, although it is best sown in the spring. Sow at the rate of two bushels per acre, or if sown with Red Clover bushels of Orchard Grass and 8 lbs. of clover are the quantities usually sown.

riraoc Sensational New Forage Crop.

OllU.ct.ii vTlcldo This new introduction has been very generally sewn all throughout the country the past year. It is proving a remarkable success wherever it has been sown, and is destined to become one of the standard sum- mer grass and forage crops, and that it will largely super- cede millet and other summer forage crops is confidently predicted. Mille.t only produces one crop a year; Sudan Grass will produce two or three good cuttings each season, and cures up splendidly, making a most nutritious and desirable forage or hay crop. Sudan Grass has, without doubt, solved the summer hay question wherever it can be grown. It is unquestionably a great hay-producing crop, both in quality and yield.

Sowing the Seed. — The seed should not be sown until the ground and weather become warm, in this section not earlier than the first of May. Can be sown either in drills from 18 inches to 2 feet apart at the rate of about 10 lbs. per acre, and cultivated, or can be broadcasted or drilled thickly at the rate of 25 to 30 lbs. per acre. The hay should be cut as soon as the grass is fully headed, and early cutings are specially advisable where more cut- tings per season are expected. The grass can be cut with a mower, the same as other grasses. Sudan Grass stools out thickly after the first cutting, and makes a thicker growth for the second and third cuttings than for th<s first cutting. Sudan Grass is an annual, and requires to be sown each season. Postpaid, lb. 30c; 5 lbs. 25c lb. By ex- press, 10 lbs. 20c lb.; 50 lbs, 17c lb.; 100 lbs. 15c per lb.

Everett’s Fulghum Oats.

THE BEST SEED OATS

Oats sown in the spring should be put in just as soon as practicable, for best results, and should be sown thicker than fall seeding. Burt, or Ninety-Day Oats, still remain very popular; also the Fulghum is gaining in popularity each year on account of it producing much larger stalks than the Burt, and is almost as early. Plant from three to four bushels per acre for spring oats; do not stool out as much as fall oats.

Burt or Ninety-Day Oats

prolific and surest cropping of spring oats. For a spring oat for seeding in March and April the Burt is unques- tionably the best and surest yielding of spring oats, the advantages claimed for it being that it is earlier to ma- ture, free from rust, healthy, clean and vigorous growth of straw, and makes a remarkable good yield of clean, bright, heavy grain. On account of its earliness to ma- ture, it is one of the surest cropping varieties for the South. Color and appearance of grain somewhat resemble the rust-proof oat, but it is lighter in color.

TEOSINTE

A Most Valuable and Enormous Yielding, Continuous Cutting Forage Crop.

We strongly recommend to out customers who have not done so to sow this splendid forage crop. If a sufficient quan- tity is sown it will furnish a continuous daily supply of most nutritious green feed for horses and all kinds of cattle all through the summer. It also makes splendid dry fodder, yielding enormously and being more nutritious and even better relished by all kinds of stock than corn fodder. In appearance it somewhat resembles Indian corn, but the leaves are much larger and broader, and the stalks contain sweeter sap. It produces a gpat number of shoots, very thickly covered with leaves, yielding an abundance of for- age. It stools out enormously after being cut, as many as forty-five stalks having been grown from a single seed. The first cutting can be made when i.t is 2 or 3 feet high. Sow in May or June at the rate of 2 to 3 pounds per acre in drills 3J4 to 4 feet apart. Postpaid, oz. 10c; ib. 30c; lb. $1.00; 5 lbs. $4.00. Write for prices in larger quantities.

MILLET

German Millet makes a large-yielding and most nutri- tious hay crop, quick growing and easily cured. It requires, however, to be seeded thickly — not less than one bushel per acre — and the crop should always be cut while in bloom, before the seed hardens in the head. If the seed is allowed to form, the stalks get hard, and it does not make nearly as good quality hay, and, at the same time, it is more ex- haustive to the land. It can be sown at any time from the middle of May until the end of July. Do not sow too early, as it does not grow off well until the soil and weather get warm. It matures its crop in from 6 to 8 weeks after seed- ing. Our Southern-grown German Millet makes much better growth than Western-grown seed.

Sowing German Millet with cow peas for a hay crop seems to be increasing. Sown in this way, it should be sown with some quick-maturing variety of cow peas, such as Whippoorwill or New Era, and should be sown at the rate of about three-quarters of a bushel of millet and one bushel of cow peas to the acre. It is necessary, when these crops are sown together, to cut the crop at the time that the millet is ready to cut for hay, regardless of the ma- turity of the cow peas. Sown together in this way, they make a much larger yield than either crop alone, and cure up and make splendid, nutritious feed. By express, peck 85c; bushel $2.75 to $3.00. Write for special prices in larger lots.

Pearl, or Cat-Tail Millet.

Pearl, or Cat-Tail Millet <fZe“iSt„d°ti;e

most nutritious of continuous-cutting green forage plants. It will grow 10 to 12 feet high, but cutting can be com- menced when it has attained the height of 3 to 4 feet, when it will stool out enormously and make a rapid growth, and it can be cut this way 3 or 4 times in a season. It is largely used by dairymen and others who have cattle for furnishing them green food through the summer. It can be fed either green or cured as dry forage, making a most nutritious feed, which is relished by all kinds of stock. Sow five pounds of seed per acre in drills three feet apart. Pearl or Cat-Tail Millet should not be planted before May. It is a tropical plant, and requires warm soil and warm weather to germinate well and grow off to best advantage. Postpaid, lb. 25c. By express, lb. 18c; 100 lbs. at 15c per lb.

UPLAND RICE

You can grow rice just as easily on uplands as on the flooded lowlands. Any ground having a reasonable amount of moigthro will produce a good crop. Prepare the land

Golden or German Millet.

and cultivate as for corn, except the rows are only 22 inches apart, so that one furrow in each middle, with an 18-inch sweep, usually suffices for a working, and the hills just far enough so it can be hoed. Plan,t as early in April as you can. Furrows are opened and the seed covered in any way most convenient at the time, just so the seeds get a little dirt over them. Drop 15 to 20 seed in each hill and leave all that come up. Cultivate for moisture and to keep down grass and weeds until the rice begins to head. It usually ripens last of August or early in September. The color tells when it is ripe. Requires about 3 bushels of 44 lbs. (or 132 lbs.) to sow an acre. Price, postpaid, lb. 20c; 5 lbs. 90c. Not prepaid, 10 lbs. 15c per lb; 100 lbs. at 10c per lb.

Mammoth Russian Sunflower

The largest and best variety to grow. Produces muck larger yield per acre than any other sort under favor* able conditions, 40 to 60 bushels to the acre, and very often still larger yields are made. No better food grown for poultry, and the seed very useful in other ways. Post- paid, pkt. 10c; lb. 20c. By express, 15c per lb.; 100 lbs. $13.00.

CHUFAS The Greatest Hog Feed.

Very few people realize the actual value of Chufas as a crop to plant for your hogs. With the increasing interest of hog raising through the South, we hope to see the day

when thousands of acres will be plant- ed. If you had to pay $15 per bushel for them, then they would be just ai cheap as anything else at its regular price put on the same space for that purpose (except Je- rusalem Artichoke).

Experiment s t a - tions in all States have tested them and recommended them highly. We know nothing that equals the value of Chufas to the farm- er for his hogs.

Plant from April to June at the rate . of 154 pecks to the

ciiuias. dropping the

nuts in rows 2^4 feet apart, covering about two inches. Cultivate same as peanuts. Crop generally matures about September 1st, and can be left in ground for hogs to harvest when ready to fatten. Place your order early. By express, peck $1.50; bushel, about $5.(X). Write for prices on larger quantities.

FIELD, or COW PEAS

The Most Valuable and Surest- Cropping of Summer Forage and

Soil-Improving Crops

Cow Peas make one of the largest yielding and most nutritious forage crops grown. There is also no surer or cheaper means of improving and increasing the productive- ness of our soils than by sowing the Cow Peas. It is not necessary to turn under the crop of vines to improve the soil, and it is really considered more economical and the best way to cut off the crop of vines and cure them as a forage or hay crop, and then turn under thq stubble and roots. Even when the crop is cut off the land is left in very much better mechanical condition, and the productive- ness very much increased over what it was before the crop was grown. The Cow Peas, to a greater extent than any other leguminous crop, has the power to extract nitrogen and ammonia from the atmosphere and to store same in the vines and roots, so that, even if the crop is cut off, the land is enriched and its condition improved. From 10,000 to 18,000 pounds of green fodder per acre have been pro- duced by the Cow Peas.

To Grow for Hay they are most valuable, as they yield an immense quantity of feed of the best quality, and pro- duce the crop in so short a time.

For Ensilage they are unsurpassed, being more nutritious than green corn and other crops used for this purpose. Where it is desired to turn the whole crop under as a soil- improver, it is better to do so after the vines are partly dead. A good picking of the dried peas can be made befbre plowing under, if desired. Cow Peas can be sown in May, Tune or July, at the rate of from one to one and a half bushels per acre.

SOWING COW PEAS with Sorghum, Millet, Soja Beans and Kaffir Corn. — Generally sown at the rate of one bushel Cow Peas to one-half Soja Beans or from one peck to one and one-half bushels of Sorghum.

One of the medium late varieties of Cow Peas. \jltiy Vigorous growth of vine, running habit. Very popular all through the Southern States. A little earlier than the Unknown or Wonderful Pea, and considered a good variety for soil-improving. Price, bushel, about $2.50 to $3.00. Write for prices.

Wonderful or Unknown

and remarkable growth of vines, but requires the full growing season to make its crop. In yield and growth of vines it surpasses any of the varieties of Cow Pfeas. The vines are of a running habit, and cover more ground and make more hay than any other variety, but make rather few pods and fewer peas in proportion. Should be planted in May, in order to come to full maturity. Price, bushel, about $2.'50 to $3.00. Write for prices.

DEAN’S O-TOO-TAN SOY

The growth of this plant is different from any of the other Soys, in that it limbs out well from the ground and is a semi-runner but does not climb. It sets fruit on every limb, 2 to 5 pods in each leaf joint. On average soil will make 25 bushels per acre, and on good soil has made 50 bus.

As you will notice from the illustration, this bean gathers nitrogen on lateral roots for at least 4 feet as well as the tap root. Then, wherever the limbs touch the ground they take root in each joint and gather nitrogen just the same as the main root system. It will grow on any soil and positively do not require inoculation, although stable manure seems to increase the bacteria.

Planted in April, they will make more forage but will not mature seed any sooner than if planted in June. They will mature anywhere in the cotton be^lt, but we advise planting them as early as possible in the northern part.

As a hay crop it is better than alfalfa, both in feeding value and in production per acre.

As a soiling crop they will make 5 tons of green hay per acre on average soil, and this turned under will add 100 pounds of available nitrogen and 33 pounds of potash to your scmI besides the nitrogen the roots will have. In other words, after this has been allowed to decay it will be equal to 600 pounds of nitrate of soda to the acre, to say nothing of the enormous amount of humus you have added.

PLANT O-TOO-TAN SOY BEANS IN YOUR CORN FOR YOUR LAND’S SAKE. FEED YOUR LAND AND IT WILL FEED YOU.

One bushel will plant 25 acres in corn 12 to 15 inches apart in 5-foot rows. Plant them in same drill at the same time corn is planted. You will make more corn the same year and they pos'itively will not climb on stalks as do vel- vet beans.

STOP PULLING FODDER AND CUT O-TOO-TAN SOY BEANS FOR YOUR ROUGHAGE.

For hay or seed plant in 2j4-foot rows, 8 to 10 inches in the drill, using 200 pounds acid phosphate per acre and culti- vating two or three times, and you will make more hay than three bushels of peas sown broadcast. One bushel will plant

T^TT A IVrQ GREATEST SOIL BUILDER

the world HAS EVER KNOWN

12 acres. O-TOO-TAN SOY BEANS are five times cheaper per acre than cow peas and will do your land ten times as much good.

They can be harvested with a reaper and threshed on regu- lar grain separator by decreasing the speed of the cylinder to one-half and retaining the speed of the separator. Start cutting for seed as soon as pods begin to turn brown and beans get purple. They will all mature on the vines and germinate 98 per cent.

We are glad to advise you that we are able to supply them this year in larger quantities. Be sure and include some of these O-TOO-TAN SOY BEANS in your order. No farmer should be without them. Plant all your worn-out, vacant land in these beans, and enrich the soil.

Bunch Velvet Beans.

VELVET BEANS

Makes an Enormous Growth of Foliage; the Greatest Soil- Improving Crop Grown— at the Least Expense.

Velvet Beans make an enormous growth of vines; greater, in fact, than any other known forage plant, in the same length of time, far surpassing the cow pea in yield. Velvet Beans are usually planted in rows four to five feet apart, at the rate of about half a bushel per acre. As a soil- improver they are considered superior to cow peas, as they make so much larger growth and so much heavier amount of foliage. The proportion of nitrogen contained in the vines is about the same as in cow peas.

Also Makes Splendid, Nutritious Fall and Winter Grazing. —In the South Velvet Beans are used very largely for win- ter grazing, and for that purpose it is one of the best crops that can be grown on the light soils. The crop should be allowed to grow until December or until killed by frost, after which it can be grazed through the winter, as the vines, leaves and pods decay very slowly, and remain pala- table a long time. Early in the year the crop remaining on the ground is usually pllowed under as a soil-improver, and adds very materially to the condition and productiveness of the soil.

Bunch Velvet. Beans J;rrkertlv»a1

years ago it caused quite a lot of talk about it, but most people were skeptical as to it being a sure-enough bunch bean, and now after having been planted continuously for several years it has proven strictly a bunch variety. Foli- age and beans resemble very much the Early 90-Day va- riety. Stalk is very stocky for about 8 to 10 inches above the ground, then it branches out full of shoots, growing out somewhat like the umbrella style. It grows about 3 to 3H feet high. Puts on a heavy crop of beans where these shoots^ put out from main stalk. The South’s salvation rests in legumes, so plant these beans and build up your land. They are wonderful soil builders.

Hairy Vetch.

A Seed Inoculant that Increases Crop Production.— Seeds of all legumes — beans, peas, alfalfa, and related crops — will yield far better if inoculated with Farmogerm, and in addi- tion leave in the soil a heavy deposit of nitrogen which benefits all succeeding crops. Gardeners and farmers who have used Farmogerm would not be without it.

Farmogerm Stays Good Indefinitely.— Farmogerm keeps for years. Because of the method of sealing the bottle — a pat- ented stopper which admits filtered air and keeps out all im-

purities— Farmogerm is just as good in five years as when first bottled. Other inoculants get weaker each day — Farmo- germ always has its full strength. Just add water and shake the bottle and sprinkle over the seeds as directed. Your crop will benefit beyond your expectations.

Farmogerm is Economical.- No other inoculant on the mar- ket is so strong and virile; no other inoculant will thor- oughly treat as much seed. The one-acre size bottle of Farmogerm is sufficient for 15 pounds of clover, 20 pounds of alfalfa, 100 pounds of Canada Field Peas, 60 pounds of Vetch, etc. A different bacteria is required for each crop. When ordering, be sure to state what crops you wish to inoculate.

FARMOGERM PRICES REDUCED.— New scientific meth- ods of manufacture have given lower prices. You cannot now afford to do without Farmogerm. A special composite cul- ture is prepared for peas, beans and sweet peas — acre size only. You’ll get more peas and beans, and larger sweet peas by using this. Ask for No. 5, price 50c.

Farmogerm prices are: 1-acre size, $1; 3-acre size, $2.50; 12-acre size, $9. Postpaid. Full directions accompanying each bottle.

There is nothing that adds more, and makes the home more HOME-LIKE than a pretty LAWN and plenty of FLOWERS.

PLANNING THE LAWN. — It is not necessary that you be a landscape gardener to do this, just plan it out your- self so as to hide all the unsightly places such as house foundations, and back yard fences. Have your soil thor- oughly prepared and well enriched.

From the day of the cave man, who crept from his winter quarters and strode out to meet the sun, all have felt the irrestible call of spring. The first robin or the earliest flow- ers are hailed with delight as fore-runners of the coming season of awakening of life out-of-doors. Among the first and most welcome of the signs of spring are flowers.

The small amount of atten- tion and expense involved is almost negligible as compared to the satisfaction that is in store for those whose foresight prompts them to plant now for the time when these flowers will bloom and produce their wealth of color and fragrance.

However, the measure of your satisfaction and enjoyment will depend largely upon the quality of the SEED and BULBS you plant.

Failure will result more fre- quently from planting SEED of inferior quality.

EVERETT’S HIGH-GRADE FLOWER SEED

TT'Urt Qnil suited to flowers is a light, rich loam

± lie OUli made as fine and smooth as possible. If heavy, mix with sand to lighten and make it friable. Many seeds are very small and require a fine seed-bed.

A good plan is to cover the place where the seeds are to be sown with pine-tags, coarse manure, leaves and other litter, and allow it to remain for a few weeks. The soil will then be finely pulverized and in a splendid condi- tion to start the seeds.

C/\TTr either broadcast or in rows, and

OOW tne oeeas cover llghtly-a good general rule is to cover two or three times the size of the seed — and press the soil firmly. Small seeds cannot come up if covered too deep. Very fine seed should be sown on the surface and pressed Into the soil. To have the earliest blooms, flowers that stand transplanting should be sown early in boxes indoors. After sowing water with a fine spray ; do not let the soil dry out, but be sure not to keep the young plants saturated, as they may damp off. When three or four leaves have formed transplant one inch apart in boxes, dr in the open ground if warm enough.

ANNUALS attain full growth from seed, bloom and die i” one season. Sow Hardy Annuals in March or April, oi earlier indoors for transplanting outside. Hardy Annuals may be sown in the fall for earlier spring blooming. They make larger flowers and more brilliant colors than spring sowings.

PERENNIALS usually bloom the second year after sowing and continue to bloom for many years. Fall sowings or early sowings indoors usually produce blooms the next season.

BIENNIALS bloom the second year after sowing and then die. Like perennials, they may be sown early indoors or in the fall.

HALF HARDY and TENDER FLOWERS should not be sow nor transplanted outside until the weather is settled and warm. Calceolarias, Cinerarias, Cyclamen, Gloxinias, Primulas and Smilax are tender, and should be kept in pots, shifting to larger pots as the growth requires.

HORNY SHELLED SEEDS, like Canna, Evening Glory, Brazilian and Japanese Morning Glory, should have a hole filed through the outer shell, or soaked in warm water 36 hours before planting.

SWEET PEAS

CULTURE. — Some time before planting dig out a trench a foot deep, put in several inches of well-rotted manure and cover with six inches of earth. Early in February open the row three to four inches deep, drop the seeds (about four seeds) every three inches, cover about two inches, and two or three times during the season bank the soil against the roots. The white- seeded kinds are tenderer than the black - seeded, and should not be planted too early. They may also be planted in October,

November and December, plant- ing four to six inches deep. Give slight protection, and they will become well-rooted and grow off at the first opening of spring Sweet Peas,

and produce an abundance of

blooms earlier and for a longer season than spring plantings.

Don’t gather the blooms grudgingly— the more you cut them the better and longer they bloom.
