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.

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.

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

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.

The  curved  bottom  of  the  Hopper  keeps  the

gradual  enlargment  from  the  top  to  base  pre- 
vents clogging.  The  wire  grid  and  the  wire 
running  from  the  flange  through  the  wire  grid 
prevents  any  chance  of  the  fowls  throwing  out 
or  wasting  the  feed.  The  sloping  cover  pre- 
vents the  birds  from  roosting  on  the  Hopper, 
and  when  both  covers  are  closed,  it  is  rat  and 
mouse  proof.  A trial  will  convince  you  that 
it  is  a Hopper  of  the  greatest  merit.  Manufac- 
tured of  heavy  galvanized  iron  in  four  sizes.

GARDEN  AND  FIELD  SEEDS  FOR  SOUTHERN  STATES 


POULTRY  FEEDS 

CRUSHED  OYSTER  SHELL — Our  shells  are  crushed 
and  ground  to  the  size  which  poultrymen  agree  to  be 
the  best.  It  is  needless  for  us  to  emphasize  the  value 
of  crushed  oyster  shell  for  poultry.  Every  poultryman 
realizes  its  importance  as  an  egg  shell  maker.  Two  grades, 
fine  and  medium.  Lb.  2,/2c;  25  lbs.  50c;  50  lbs.  75c;  100 
lbs.  $1.25. 

GENUINE  PEARL  GRIT— Every  additional  egg  your 
hens  lay  increases  your  income.  You  can  make  them 
yield  greater  profit  by  giving  them  the  grit  that  contains 
the  vital  substances  needed  in  egg  making.  Pearl  Grit 
is  not  an  ordinary  water  washed  pebble  or  soft  crushed 
lime  stone,  but  is  hard  as  flint  and  in  addition  to  its 
grinding  properties  it  contains  lime,  carbohydrates,  sul- 
phur and  silicon,  which  help  to  make  hard  white  shells. 
Two  sizes,  fine  and  medium.  Lb.  2^c ; 25  lbs.  60c;  50 
lbs.  90c;  100  lbs.  $1.50. 

RED  CROSS  HEALTH  GRITS— A splendid  prepared 
grit  for  pigeons.  If  fed  regularly  will  go  a long  way 
in  keeping  them  healthy.  Lb.  6c;  100  lbs.  $4.50. 

WILSON’S  MEAT  SCRAPS — 50%  protein — The  highest  grade  meat  scraps  on  the 
market.  Made  from  cooked  beef  scraps,  thoroughly  dried  and  ground  very  fine  so 
that  it  mixes  readily  in  an  egg  mash  and  poultry  will  not  waste  mash  trying  to 
locate  meat  scraps.  It  is  one  of  the  only  meat  scraps  on  the  market  that  can  be  fed 
straight  to  poultry  and  will  not  taint  the  eggs.  Lb.,  6c;  100  lbs.,  $5.00. 

WILSON  TANKAGE — A wonderful  hog  feed.  Used  by  some  in  egg  mash,  but  do 
not  recommend  same  for  this  purpose  as  it  will  eventually  make  sick  chickens.  Lb.,  5c; 
100  lb.s.,  $3.75. 

LINSEED  MEAL — An  easily  digested  meal  with  high  protein  content.  Recom- 
mended for  poultry,  horse  and  dairy  feed  mixtures,  puts  that  glossy  coat  on  your 
animals.  Lb.,  6c;  100  lbs.,  $4.50. 

CHARCOAL — A splendid  addition  to  your  mash.  Should  also  be  kept  in  hoppers 
before  your  poultry  as  it  sweetens  the  gizzard  and  goes  a long  way  toward  pre- 
venting bowel  troubles.  Lb.,  l/zc;  100  lbs.,  $4.50. 

CHOICE  PEA  GREEN  ALFALFA  MEAL — Used  in  egg  mashes.  Ground  very 
fine.  Lb.,  4c;  100  lbs.,  $2.50. 

PEPPER  SEED — To  be  added  to  the  mash  as  a stimulant  during  the  winter  months 
to  force  egg  laying.  Lb.,  6c;  100  lbs.,  $5.00. 

ROLLED  OATS — Used  by  many  poultry  raisers  as  a baby  chick  feed  and  for  fat- 
tening poultry.  Lb.,  6c;  100  lbs.,  $5.00. 

FINE  GROUND  BLOOD  MEAL — A highly  concentrated  and  natural  food  for  hens, 
containing  87  per  cent,  protein.  Makes  the  plumage  bright  and  glossy,  and  is  part- 
icularly beneficial  during  the  moulting  season.  Should  never  be  fed  without  mix- 
ing with  other  food  in  proportion  of  1 to  15  parts  of  meal  or  shorts.  Price,  lb.,  10c; 
or  3 lbs.,  25c. 

POULTRY  BONE. — Consists  of  ground  beef  bone  thoroughly  dried  and  free  from 
grease.  It  is  more  economical  and  better  in  every  way  than  raw  beef  bone.  Rich 
in  bone  phosphate  of  lime,  which  is  necessary  for  making  egg  shells,  and  for  building 
up  the  frame  of  the  chickens.  Should  be  placed  in  liberal  quantities  in  a clean  dry 
place  easily  accessible  to  the  chickens  at  all  times.  Price,  6c  lb.,  $5.00  100  lbs.
