Prepay Stations.—If there is no agent at your station, remit extra for the freight. If you neglect to do
this we will ship to the nearest station where there is an agent.
Should you change your address, we will esteem it a favor if you will notify us, so we can forward our
Catalogue with regularity; if you receive two Catalogues of the same kind, please hand one to some friend
who has a garden.
Should an error occur, we desire to be promptly informed, and will take pleasure in making satisfac-
tory corrections.
About Warranting Seeds.—We have often been asked if we ‘guarantee or warrant our Seeds.” We
beg to state plainly, we do not, for the reason that practical experience has assured us of the fact that
crops may fail, no matter how fresh or pure the seed sown may be. We trust that our customers will fully ia
realize that it is to our interest to send none butthe best quality of seeds. al
To secure success, however, it is necessary that the customer should do his part well, or our good
seeds will be ruined. With the best of management and good seeds there will be an occasional unaccounta-
ble failure. The best of gardeners sometimes fail, and try again with the same seed with good results. re.
I, J. Chas. McCullough, give no warranty, expressed or implied, as to description, quality or produc-
tiveness or any other matter of any seeds, bulbs or plants, I, or We, send out and I, or We, willnot be in
any way responsible for the crop. If the purchaser does not accept the goods on these terms, they are at 4
once to be returned and the amount paid will be refunded. If they are kept it will be taken as proof Wes ll
they are satisfactory. Respectfully. _ a

City Park @\/ | ] | Grass Seed
We have made the subject of lawns a study for many
years and this mixture has been prepared and sold by
us in all parts of the country, giving general satisfaction.
In making a lawn great care should be taken to use
only the very best quality of lawn seedso as to produce a
soft'velvety, evergreen sod, that will withstand cuttingjand
theat of summer and severe cold of, Winter. Itisnot made
of annual grasses for a quick show, or of the chaffy, light
weight seed sold by some seedsmen at cheap prices. Our
mixture is not surpassed by any of the celebrated brands
in the country A pound of our mixture will sow about
300 square feet. Quantity of seed required to sow an
acre (43,650 square feet.) For new lawns, not less than
4 bu.; for renovating old lawns, from 2 to 3 bu. First
quality, per lb., 25 cts.; 5 lbs. $1.00; 1 bu.; (16 lbs.) $3.00.

for postage.
OUR LAWN GRASS MIXTURE FOR SHADY SITUATIONS
On nearly all lawns there are shaded, bare and
unsightly spots on which the owners have difficulty in
getting a stand of grass. For such places this mixture is
adapted. It is composed of dwarf-growing grasses which
are found naturally growing in such places. Should the
ground bave become “sour” or drainage defective, it is
apt to be covered with moss. If such is the case, apply
“Grub Killer’ to sweeten it, after first removing the moss,
then rake thoroughly and sow the seed at the rate of not
less than 4 bushels per acre. Per lb, 30 cts.; 4 lbs. $1.00;
bu., (16 Ibs.) $3.50.
Ij to go by mail, add to the above prices 10 cts. per Ibe
for postage.

A BEAUTIFUL LAWN
' GRUB KILLER (AN INSECTICIDE.)
__ During the summer large patches of lawns die out
without apparent cause, and upon investigation find that
it is caused by White Grubs killing the grass. To remedy
this evil, we offer ‘‘Grub Kuller,’’ a combination of chemi-
cals which destroys the grub worms and ants and pre-
vents the growth of moss, also sweetens sourground.
Apply broadcast at the rate of about 200 or 300 pounds per
acre. Never use stable or vegetable manure, as same is
filled with eggs of the grubs. 10 Ibs., 40 cts.; 35 Ib.,
$1.00; 50 Ibs., $1.25; 100 Ibs., $2.00.
CREEPING BENT GRASS (AGROSTIS STOLONIFERA.
Particularly valuable for lawns that are to be used as
croquet and tennis grounds because it is benefitted more
than hurt by trampling, and by its bright color adds to the
beauty of the lawn. Lb. 25 cts.; 100 Ibs., $20.00.
RHODE ISLAND BENT GRASS (AGROSTIS CANINA.)
A valuable perennial for lawns and pasturage. Much
like Red Top, though smaller. Thrives on light, dry soils
as well as on rich, moist ones. For lawn purposes, if
used alone, it should be sown at the rateof about forty
pounds per acre; for pasture, if used alone, twenty-four
pounds peracre. Lb., 25 cts., 100 lbs., $17.00.
CANADA FIELD PEAS.
Grown with Oats makes a fodder or hay which doubles the
production of milk.
They should be sown in March or early April, two
bushels of pes and two bushels of oats to the acre. The
peas should be sown first and plowed under about 4 inches
deep; the oats then sowed and harrowed in. They will be
ready for cutting about the latter end of June when the oats
are in milk and the pods formed on the peas. Prices varia-
ple, but always as low as the market will permit.
COW PEAS.
The Great Soil Renovator.
The Growing Crop Makes Poor Land Rich and Rich Land
Better, at the Same Time Producing a Large
Amount of Forage for Green or Dry Feed.
Cow Peas afford excellent midsummer pasturage, but
tbe best way for using green is to cut and feed to stock.
For hog pasture, turn in just as the peas are ripening; hogs
will then eat both vines and peas, and will put on fat rap-
idly. For hay, cut when the last pods are formed, wilt,
make into winrows, leave 1 or 2 days, then put in small
cocks a week or ten days till thoroughly cured. Do not
forget the Southern Cow Pea belongs to the Bean family
and must not be planted until the ground is warm, in this
latitude, about May 10th; from then to the last of June, or
even later, if wanted for green feed. Plow the ground deep
and harrow well, sow broadcast, 134 pushel per acre or
drill 16 to 18 inches apart, 144 bushels peracre. They will
grow well on almost all soils not too wet. Leading varie-
ties. Write for prices.

FARM: AND FIELD SEED SPECIALTIES.
AWNLESS BROME GRASS (BROMUS INERMIS
Will stand long droughts and produce heavy crops in
dry sections where other grasses would perish. It has
also proved one of the hardiest grasses. Will succeed in a
wider range of temperature than any other grass. (10 lbs.
per bu.) Lb., 20 cts.; 100 Ibs., $13.00.
BEARDLESS SPRING BARLEY.
The earliest Barley known, being fully a week or ten
days earlier than any other barley. Height same as com-
mon barley, but better straw and will stand upon any land.
A good yielder, six rowed. Ripens early, thus admitting
of a second crop. Price, lb., 20 cts.; per bu., $1.50.
SPELTZ (EMMER.)
Recently introduced into this country from Russia,
where its value as a cereal has long been esteemed. Very
heavy crops of it have been reported from many sections
of the country. It appears to do better than any other
grain crop on poor, thin soil, and in the extremely dry sea-
sons. It is eaten greedily by.all kinds of stock, including
poultry, and its feeding qualities are said to be excellent.
A very fair flour is made from it. Sow broadcost sameas
oats, using about 75 Ibs. to acre. Lb., 10 cents.; 10 lbs.,
30 cts.; bu. of 40 Ibs., $1.00; 100 Ibs., $2.00.
TURKESTAN: ALFALFA.
A variety of Alfalfa from Central Asia. It was first
sent out by the Department of Agriculture about eight
ears ago, and has been widely tested throughout the
nited States with general satisfaction. Its great point
of merit is its hardiness. In Turkestan, where the seed
grows, the winters are very cold and the summers dry and
hot, so it is able to stand the greatest extremes of cold and
heat. This year we are able to furnish it at only a slight
advance over the common Alfalfa. Sow 25 lbs., per acre.
Lb., 25 cts.; 5 lbs., $1.00; peck, $2.75.
BOKHARA CLOVER, OR HONEY PLANT.
(Melilotus alba. )
A strong-growing perennial of value for green manur-
ing, especially in the South, also largely grown for the
excellent food it affords throughout its season for bees.
Lb., 20 cts.;10 Ibs.; and over, 15 cts. per Ib.
JAPAN CLOVER.
(Lespedeza striata. )
A low-spreading perennial, much like white clover, of
great value in the southern states for forage and green
manuring. Lb., 40 cts.
HEMP SEED.
For Sowing.
We receive many inquiries for hemp seed to be used
to smother quack grass and Russian Thistle. When used
for this purpose it should be sown thickly to produce a
dense mass. It will grow quite tall and exclude light and
air and for this reason is better to use than millet and buck-
wheat in order to kill off obnoxious weeds. When sown to
produce fibre, use about a bushel of seed to the acre.
- Price, per lb.; 20 cts.; 101bs., at 15cts.; 100 Ibs., at 10 cts. Ib.
TEOSINTE.
(Reana luxurians. )
This gigantic Grammea will furnish a continuous daily
supply of most nutritious green food for horses and all
kinds of cattle all through the summer. It also makes
splendid dry fodder yielding enormously, and beiny more
nutritious and better relished by all 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 stools out enormously after being cut
Sow in May or June, at the rate of three pounds per acre, in-
drills4feetapart. Lb., 75 cts. oh mail, postpaid; by freight
orexpress, lb., 65 cts.; 5 lbs., and over at 60 cts. per pound.
DWARF ESSEX RAPE.
A forage plant of highest value. It can be sown in
April for an early crop, and for fall crop in July, August and
September, and still later further South. Itis sown broad-
cast, 6 pounds to the acre, but is better drilled, in which
case 3 pounds to the acre will suffice. Ina few weeks from
the time of sowing, sheep, hogs or cattle can be turned on
it. Stockmen, dairymen and farmers have proved its
value. 10 cts. lb.; $7.00 per 100 Ibs.
JAPANESE BARNYARD MILLET.
It has proven an enormous yielder in all sections of
the United States, producing hay and fodder to a height
of 6 to 8 feet, and produces from 12 to 20 tons per acre, -
Cattle and horses eat it greedily and fatten rapidly. It
is a remarkable stooler and should not be sown very
thickly—10 to 12 pounds per acre broadcast being suffi-
cient. In drills, 8 Ibs. per acre is plenty. Lb., 10 cts.; 10
Ibs., 75 cts.; 100 Ibs., $6.00.
GERMAN OR GOLDEN MILLET—TRUE SOUTHERN
GROWN.
It has been fully established that German Millet
grown in the Northern and Western States becomes de-
teriorated, and soon resembles Fox Tail in quality and
yield. This is due to the fact that German Millet is a
native of a warm climate. Southern grown seed is worth
double that of Northern or Western grown, if you want
a good crop of hay. We are prepared at all times to fill
orders at market prices.

SCALECIDE SAN JOSE SCALE.
“THE TREE SAVER”
“SCALECIDE” will positively destroy all soft-bodied
sucking insects, of whatever nature,on all kinds of fruit,
shade and ornamental trees with less labor and expense
than any known effective remedy.
The Rural New Yorker, of September 21, 1907, on p.
699, says editorially: ‘‘We sprayed nearly 2,000 trees last
Fall with ‘““SCALECIDE,” one part oil to sixteen parts
water, and most of them again this Spring. There is no
evidence of any injury whatever, and few, if any, live
scales have been found.’’

NOTES.
DON’T expect Sweet Peas to thrive in a sunless location, nor
in poor soil.
DON’T sow to shallow. Plant the seeds not less than two
inches deep. Get in early.
DON’T use the same plot of ground for Sweet Peas two years
in succession.
DON’T over feed. Bone meal in some form is the best ferti-
lizer. Don’t use fresh manure in the trenches.
DON’T gather the flowers grudgingly. The more flowers
you cut the longer the vine will bloom

PEAS, (Erbsen, Ger.)
' Peas come earlier to maturity in light, rich soil. For general crop
a good dressing should be applied, and for the dwarf-growing kinds
the soil can hardly betoorich. Plant the early varieties as soon as the
ground can be worked, the others in succession from April to June.
For private use they are getierally sown in double or single rows, in
drills, about two feet apart and three inches deep, for the dwarf
varieties, three to four feet apart and four inches deep for the taller
varieties. Those growing over two and a half feet in height should be
bushed. One quart to 80 feet of drill, 1% bushel for one acre.
Add 10 cts. per pint, 15 cts. per quart extra, ifsent by mail.

SOJA BEAN.
The SOJA BEAN is fast taking the place of Clover in
sections where the soil is not the most fertile, both for hay
and fertilizing purposes.
Recommended as the best leguminous plant for soil re-
storing as it is adapted to ALL SOILS. It isasure cropper.
Unsurpassed for hay, claimed to be superior to Clover
or Timothy. Plant in May, for it takes about ninety days
to mature the hay and one hundred and twenty days to
mature the seed. For hay sow about one bushel per acre
either broadcast or drilled. Cut whenin blossom. For seed
sow in drills about twelve inches apart in the rows and have
the rows about thirty inches apart. ‘dcts. peck.

SAND, WINTER OR HAIRY VETCHES.
( Vicia villosa).
A very hardy forage plant, growing well on soils so poor and
sandy that they will produce but little clover. The plants when mature
are about 40 inches high, and if cut for forage as soon as full grown aid
before setting seed, they will start up again and furnish even a Jarger
crop than the first. Sow 1% bushels to the acre. l5cts. lb. Wrire

A forage plant of highest value. It can be sown in
April for an early crop, and for fall crop in July, August
and September, and still later further south. /¢ is sown
broadcast 6 lbs. to the acre, but 1s better drilled, in which
case 3 lbs. to the acre will suffice. In a few weeks
from the time of sowing, sheep, hogs or cattle can be turned
on it; all reports agree that they gain weight faster on this
than any other fodder, as it can be sown after other crops
are off; the gain in fodder is secured at a nominal cost.
Stockmen, Dairymen and Farmers have proved its value.

to seed it in the fall—_September—if it is seasonable, and
if, by any reason, there is a partial failure, go over the
ground in spring Sow one fourth to one-half bushel seed

Sweet Vernal—Is very fragrant, especially when bruised.
For a mixture with other grasses for pasture it is quite
valuable, as it starts early in spring and grows uutil late in
the fall. For hay its chief merit is its fragrant odor. It is
a vegetable condiment rather than a grass of nutritive
value. 20 cts. lb.

CLOVERS.
Red Clover—In ordering always state quality desired,
otherwise will send the best. The grades of the market
are Good, Prime and Choice. Market price.
Sapling, Mammoth, Large, English or Pea Vine Clover—
Trifolium Pratense Perenne. Compared with common red
clover, its flowers, foliage and stems are of a darker color
and its seed is the product of the flowers of the first crop,
while the common red clover is the product of the flowers
of the second crop. It is valuable when sown with other
grasses for mixed hay, as it ripens later than the common
red clover and about the time that timothy, orchard and
other grasses ripen, thereby making the hay a much better
quality. The best for soiling purposes. Market price.
Japan Clover— (Lespedeza Striata.) It thrives on
and produces continual herbage. Not adapted to Northern eee
it is only half-hardy. Sow 1U to 12 lbs. per acre.. 35 cts. lb. ;
White Dutch Clover—Trijolium Repens. Grows natur-

is an indispensible requisition in all parks and lawns. 25c lb.
Alfalfa
Clover—
The most valu-

the richer the

such will pro-
duce several
crops every

when every

Alsike or Swedish Clover —So-called from being inter-
mediate in its appearance between the red and white clovers,
possessing qualities common to both, being productive,
sweet and permanent. Will grow well on very poor soil.
Should be used in mixtures of grasses and cloyers for pas-

CLOVER SEED, Continued.
Scarlet or Crimson Clover—Scarlet Clover is an annual
and should be sown in August, September or October. It
germinates quickly, grows very rapidly through the fall and
win-er, blossoms about May Ist. This clover can be sown
after crops have been removed from the ground. In this
way it will prove of inestimable vaiue in holding the valu-
able nitrates in the soil that are otherwise washed out of the
bare ground, furnishes fall, winter and spring pasture and
enriches and stores up plant food for the next crop. Sow
at the rate of ten or fifteen pounds per acre, covering with

after potatoes are harvesied. 16 cts. 1b.; $1.00 10 lbs.
Bokhara Clover—A large plant quite valuable for soil-

To produce a rich, luxuriant and lasting growth
of beautiful dark-green gras, use our lawn fertilizer.
It is quick in action, its effect being seen immediately
after the first rain. It acts energetically on the
unfolding leaves, goes directly to the roots, stimu-
lates them to activity and causes the grass to thicken. A
firm growth follows, which remains green, luxuriant and
velvety for the whole season. Stable manure is very un-
sightly, gives an unpleasant odor, disfigures the lawn, and.
contains weeds and other foreign seeds. The fertilizer
should be applied in winter or spring, and sown broadcast
on a damp day or just before arain. 40 cts. 10 lbs.; $1.00:
35 lbs.; $1.25 50 1bs.; $2.00 100 Ibs.

‘‘Planet Jr.’’ No. 3 Hill Dropping Seed Drill.
A seeder that does not drep in hills is fast becoming a thing of the
past. Why? Because all crops that are to be grown from seed and
thinned toa regular stand, should be planted in hills at just the dist-
tance apart the plants are desired, forin drilling unless the seed is
sown unnecessarily thick, there will not always bea plantat the proper
spot, and the crop is therefore itregular. This machine not only sows
in a continuous row, but also drops in hills. 4, 6, & 12,and 24 inches
apart.
We can heartily recommend it. Price, $10.00.

Explanation.—Whenever an asterisk [*] is used, it cautions against spraying with poisons while the plants are in blossom; a dagger [¢] in:
dicates that there is danger of making an application within 3 weeks of the time the fruit is to be used as food. While the number of applications
recommended will be found desirable, in seasons when the fungi are less troublesome a smaller number may often suffice.
