FARMOGERM
HAIRY PERUVIAN SEED— Facts you should
know. It is impossible to distinguish Hairy Peru-
vian from other varieties of Alfalfa seed. Plant
five pounds more to the acre than other varieties,
must have thick stand to give you good quality
hay, otherwise stems will be very woody. Plants
grow taller, stems larger with hair on full length
of stem; also hair on under sides of leaves. Color
of leaves grayish-green, with the veins in them
showing very prominent. Lb., 45c; postpaid.
SEED CORN
25c per lb., postpaid
ALFALFA
HICKORY KING — Has the smallest cob of any corn
grown. Makes a very large, white, flat grain and is very
largely planted for roasting ears.
BLOODY BUTCHER — The standard variety of large, red
grain corn. Enormous yielder.
SURECROPPER CORN — A truly remarkable drought re-
sisting power. As old as is the history of corn growing in
the South and Southwest is the search for a corn able to
hold up . and make a crop on the scanty moisture which we
have in so many fields at some period of almost every
season. In Surecropper we have found that corn.
GIANT WHITE RED COB — Makes a very large ear of
the finest corn. Grains very large, deep, wide and thick,
cob red, very popular wherever tried. We recommend this
as being the finest variety of White Red Cob Corn. Has
a very large, deep, wide, thick grain. Grains of medium
size.
GIANT YELLOW — This beautiful yellow Corn is deeply
grained and very uniform in size. It is a sure cropper and
good yielder. Matures in 90 to 100 days.
NATIVE SQUAW CORN — A drough-resisting variety,
plantable in the summer months. It has blue and white
grains, therefore not so desirable by the market gardener.
However, it makes a sweet and very juicy roasting ear.
TEXAS GROWN JUNE CORN— The stalks under favor-
able conditions grow from 7 to 8 feet high, and yields from
30 to 60 bushels to the acre. For best results it should
not be planted until June or July, as it stands the hot
weather better than any corn. Seed can be procured at any
time after May 15th.
CHAMPION WHITE PEARL — An extra early pure white
variety of dent corn. Matures in 100 days from time of
planting, is very productive and the ears are exceedingly
heavy. The grains are extra deep and white, and the cob
is very small. A great favorite.
GIANT STRAWBERRY — We consider this to be the finest variety of com to grow
for feed. It is very productive and makes fine big ears. First-class seed of this
variety is very scarce this year.
SATEX SEED COMPANY, SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS

NON-SACCHARINE
SORGHUMS
DWARF STRAIGHT NECK YELLOW MILO
MAIZE — This variety is the most popular Milo
Maize and stands the drought well. It is earlier
than Kaffir Corn and White Milo Maize, and very
prolific. Stock seems to prefer it to corn, and it
has a laxitive effect on them, keeping them in good
condition. 20c lb., postpaid.
DWARF BLACK HULL WHITE KAFFIR— It
makes a straight upright growth and has a strong
stem with enormous wide leaves. The stalks keep
green and are brittle, making excellent fodder,
either green or dried, which is highly relished by
cattle and horses. The heads form at the top of
each stalk. For the grain sow in rows 3 feet apart,
3 to 5 pounds of seed to the acre. For fodder sow
one-half to one bushel, either broadcast or in drills.
20c lb., postpaid.
FETERITA — The best drought-resisting nonsac-
charine sorghum, and pretty well known in this
state. Earlier than Kaffir Corn, and a very heavy
yielder. The grain is similar to Milo, but is pure
white and also larger and softer. It does not shatter
badly and yields as high as 80 bushels to the acre.
20c lb., postpaid.
SHALLU OR EGYPTIAN WHEAT — This grain grows something like Broom Corn.
It stools out from the root, making from three to six stalks. It has been planted in
almost every section of Texas and has produced splendid crops. It is very productive,
making an enormous yield of grain and fodder, and has given great satisfaction to
every grower. Shallu or Egyptian Wheat should be sown in drills three feet apart,
using from five to ten pounds of seed per acre. Lb., 20c.
HEGARI, THE NEW GRAIN SORGHUM— Some years ago when Kaffir Corn,
'Milo Maize and Feterita were introduced into the dry-land farming crop catalog many
people probably imagined that the limit in grain sorghum development had been
reached; but that is almost certainly a mistake. We have abundant reason to hope
for greater things yet. The new grain Sorghum Hegari, while it is too recent an
introduction to justify settled conclusions, certainly promises in some respects, to
out-merit all of its predecessors. Lb., 20c.
SHROCK KAFFIR SORGHUM — This is a comparatively new grain which was origi-
nated in Oklahoma and has been planted in Texas for several years. It is claimed
to be one of the finest of the sorghums for forage and ensilage, as it is quite sweet
and grows an abundance of broad, long leaves. It is a wonderful grain to stool out,
not unusual for one seed to send up six to ten stalks each making a fine head of
large, light brown grains, which make an excellent stock and poultry food* one of
the best drought resisters, of the sorghum family. Our seeds are acclimated. Drill
at the rate of 3 to 5 pounds per acre. Price: lb., 20c.
TRUE DARSO — This wonderful sorghum is neither sacharine nor non-saccharine.
It originated in what is called a “sport” stalk brought in by a farmer in 1912 to the
Experiment Station at Stillwater, Oklahoma. After 8 years experimenting Dean
Knight stated it was the best silage and feed crop, and the people of Coryell County,
Texas, seem to indorse same, as they are rather enthusiastic about it. — Darso does
best on heavy loams or black land, but also does well on sandy soil. For feeding
purposes, it is probably the best grain-fodder, and silage crop for this section. It
will cross with other grain sorghums if planted near them. Six pounds of seeds will
plant an acre. Lb., 20c.
FETERITA

GARDEN AND FIELD SEEDS FOR SOUTHERN STATES
JAPANESE HONEY DRIP
SACCHARINE SORGHUMS
The Sorghum plant is a strong, rapid grower and a
greedy feeder, so that it succeeds best on a deep, rich
moist soil. Use about twenty-five pounds to the acre
when sown in drills, and from 100 to 150 pounds to the
acre when sown broadcast.
RED TOP or SUMAC CANE — This is the most popular
variety for our state, and the one is most generally
planted. Seed is smaller than that of the Orange or
Amber. Produces an immense quantity of fodder. 20c
lb., postpaid.
EARLY ORANGE — This variety has taller and heavier
stalks than any variety of cane. It is not quite as early
as the Early Amber, but is a better producer, and is bet-
ter for syrup-making. 20c lb., postpaid.
EARLY AMBER — This is the earliest sort, and makes
fine hay, which is relished by all stock. 20c lb., postpaid.
JAPANESE HONEY DRIP — Known in some sections
as Japanese Seeded Ribbon Cane. It makes an unusually
large stalk, sometimes as large in diameter as Ribbon
Cane and much taller. Yields as much as four to five
hundred gallons of the very best syrup to the acre. 35c
lb., postpaid.
SUDAN GRASS
The great hay and forage crop.
This wonderful new grass seems
to be taking the country by storm.
This grass has been grown very
extensively in Texas the past sea-
son and has been tested out in a
number of other states and the
veredict is unanimous everywhere
it has been grown it spells suc-
cess. It seems to grow successful-
ly on all kinds of land, stands dry
weather and does not blight under
ample rainfall. Sudan Grass is
thought to be the original wild
form of the cultivated sorghums.
It is an annual, the seed having
to be sown every year. It looks
very much like Johnson Grass when
growing but has a different root
growth. Johnson Grass reproduces
itself from underground root stalks
as well as from the seed. Sudan
Grass will not sprout from the
roots after frost has killed the
plant. Ranges in height from five SUDAN GRASS
to ten feet, stems small and some-
what more leafy than Johnson Grass. Like the sorghum crops, it must be planted
each spring and dies when the frost comes. 30c lb., postpaid.
RHODES GRASS
A subtropical grass of African origin and introduced into the United States a
short time ago. Has proven since then as one of the best species for pasture or dry
soil and is of great agricultural importance. It is a perennial sort which does not
spread by underground rootstocks, but produces running branches which took at the
joints, thereby producing new plants. It grows from three to four feet high, with
a large number of very long, narrow and tender leaves. $1.00 lb., postpaid.

BERMUDA GRASS
SYNODON DACTYLON — Almost everybody living in this section of the country
knows this grass. It is planted as a lawn grass, and nothing will stand the sun
better, or will make a prettier carpet, when kept short, than this grass. It is also
very valuable as a pasture and hay grass, which therefore had to be propagated by
the roots. $1.25 tb., postpaid.
ENGLISH OR PERENNIAL RYE GRASS
(LONDON PERENNE) — Is largely sown by our landscape gardeners for winter
lawns on Bermuda soil. The Bermuda blades being easily affected by frost, become
red and rusty looking, while English Rye during winter presents a most beautiful
appearance, being of a vivid green, and as the Bermuda during April and May makes
its appearance it overgrows the English Rye, causing the latter to decay and act as
a fertilizer to the existing grass. It should be sown from September to March at the
rate of 3 to 4 bushels of seed peil acre. 35c lb., postpaid.
HUBAM CLOVER
The Wonderful New Giant
Annual White Clover
The merits of Hubam Clover
were first called to our attention
by Mr. D. Anderson, who had
planted a test plant on his truck
farm near San Antonio. We were
so astounded at the wonderful crop
that he had grown that we made
a thorough investigation of this
wonderful clover, and honestly be-
lieve that it is the best variety
for the Southwest.
Hubam Clover grows very rap-
idly, reaching a height of about
four feet in ninety days, and grow-
ing as high as eight and nine feet.
It is an annual legume, making
its growth all in one season, yield-
ing as much in that time as is
produced from the biennial White
or Yellow in two years’ growth.

COTTON SEED
Antons Improved Early Triumph
There are quite a few different varieties of Cotton Seed on the market, many of
which are good. After many exhaustive tests we have found the Anton’s Improved
Early Triumph to be the best money maker for the cotton grower. Prove it to your-
self by planting this cotton seed in comparative test with some that you are now
using. So great has been the success of Anton’s Cotton that many growers are now
offering the Anton’s Cotton Seed. To assure the grower of getting the genuine
Anton’s Cotton Seed this year, every sack will be printed with Anton’s Copyrighted
Trade Mark. If you are offered this seed without the trademark on the sack, beware,
as it is not genuine. We are the only dealers in Bexar County authorized to sell this
splendid seed and would advise placing your order early to avoid disappointment.

ANTON PEDIGREED COTTON SEED
Early Maturing Big Boll
The Cotton produces a strong,, vigor-
ous, well developed, deep rooting drought
resisting stalk; which has long limbs,
short joints; extra big, well formed, five
lock bolls, pointing downward, thereby
preventing injury from rain. The open
bolls are heavy, solid, and do not string
making a good storm resisting cotton.
The lint is very easily picked, in fact it
has been proven that from 75 to 150
pounds per day more has been picked than
of other improved varieties. The Cotton
produces a staple of from 11/16 to
13/16 inches which brings a premium
over the shorter staple varieties, combin-
ed with a profitable lint outturn of 38
to 42 per cent.
We have given special attention to
the Early Maturing and Rapid Fruiting
qualities of this cotton, which is a great
advantage in case of insects or drought.
The Anton Cotton generally matures in
from 75 to 90 days from time of planting
and it has been proven that it is from
two to three weeks earlier than other
varieties.
Place your order today. If it reaches
us after our supply is sold, it with any
money will be promptly returned to you.
We do not substitute you will get only
the highest grade Anton seed grown under
our own strict supervision or none. $3.00
per bu., 10 bu., or more, $2.75 per bu.

Makes Hens
We Guaranteeyou--More Eggs or No Pay
Hens won’t lay in Fall and Winter,” used to be
accepted as a fact. But anyone who has tried Don
Sung knows that hens will lay right through the zero
spells of winter, and all othef cold or wet seasons.
Some may doubt this — and you may be one of them.
But if you don’t at least try Don Sung, you are missing
some sure, easy profits from extra eggs.
A Mineral Compound that
Scientifically Helps Nature
Don Sung doesn’t force or
hurt the hen in any way. It is
a balanced mineral conditioner.
It improves the hen’s health,
tones up her egg-laying organs,
and makes her stronger and
more productive. It helps sup-
ply, during Fall and Winter,
those mineral elements, lacking
in the feed at that time.
Costs Nothing to Try — Give
Don Sung to 15 hens for 30 days. If it doesn’t~show you
a big increase in eggs, if it doesn’t pay for itself and a
good profit, your money w'ill be promptly refunded.
