Will mature three weeks earlier than your home-grown plants. Varieties: Jersey and Early Flat Dutch. These plants are grown in the open field dur- ing the fall and winter months, which causes them to make a slow, tough, hardy growth— so hardy that the outer leaves turn to a reddish brown. They can be shipped to distant points without danger of spoiling, and should be plant- ed in the open ground from four to five weeks earlier than frame plants. The plants, when received, will be somewhat wilted and have a hard stunted appearance, which will be disappointing to persons who have never used these plants before. Regardless of appear- ance, they will produce the crop results. Prices: Parcel Post paid, 100, 50c; 500, §1.60; 1.000, §3.00.

Good size tubers should be selected for planting, which can be cut in pieces not too small; each piece ought to contain at least three eyes. Matures in 85 to 100 days. Plant in drills from two to three feet apart. Corona Dry is particularly efficient in the control of the ordinary potato bug. Dust the potato plants with Corona when they are 6 to 8 inches high. Repeat when necessary or at intervals of two wrecks for the rest of the season. Planted from January to April, 10 bushels per acre.

Seed Corn We make a specialty of the best Seed Corn, and our volume of business enables us to supply the best stocks at prices that are very reasonable, indeed.

We know good corn when we see it, and we know how to select only the best. For general field crops we urgently recommend our Southern grown va- rieties ; however, for a quick maturing crop we are prepared to furnish the best of the Northern va- rieties. Whatever variety you may select, you may be assured that you can depend on getting the best seed from us. Plant in April and up to July 15th; 4 to 6 quarts will plant one acre; rows should be 4 feet apart; plant 2 to 3 grains 2 feet apart in the row, thin to one stalk. Cultivate shallow.

Oats should be planted for hay making during early October, though they may be sown as late as the early part of December, also in early Spring, with the expectation of making a fair return. When they are to be cut for hay, it is best to cut when the grain is in milk, and that will be about the first week in May. While the time of planting is given under each variety, oats are also sown successfully in the early Spring. LOUISIANA RED RUST PROOF OATS— In the South Atlantic and Gulf States Red Rust Proof Oats have attained a promi- nent place in farming operations. This is par- ticularly true in the coast region, where other varieties have not proved altogether satisfactory, but where the Red Rust Proof seems to be especially well adapted to the light, sandy soil of that section. They are vigorous grow- ers, robust and productive, and have heavy heads. Planted from October to March. They are also preferred for sowing on low grounds and on land where other varieties seem in- clined to rust. Peck 50c; bu. $1.50; 5 bu. sack $6.25, not prepaid.

ENGLISH OR PERENNIAL RYE GRASS— Is largely sown by our landscape gardeners for winter lawns on Bermuda sod. The Bermuda blades being easily affected by frost, become red and rusty looking, while English Rye, dur- ing Winter, presents a most beautiful appear- ance, being of a vivid green, and as the Ber- muda during April and May makes its appear- ance it overgrows the English Rye, causing the later to decay and act as a fertilizer to the existing grass. It’s also valuable for per- manent pasture as it makes a heavy growth. The Bermuda sod should be mowed as closely as possible, scarify the surface thoroughly, broadcast the English Rye on top, rake in and cover with a light soil. Similar to Italian Rye, but a little slower in offgrowth. It should be sown from September to March, at the rate of 60 lbs. per acre. 1 lb. 40c; postpaid; lo lbs. $3.00; 20 lb. bu. $4.50; 100, $18.00 not prepaid.
