The Wonderful Siberian Forage Plant Perfectly hardy in Siberia and flourishes in the hot and dry climates of the Indies, and will be admirably adapted to the arid and barren sections of our Southwestern States where our native grasses sometimes fail. It needs no irrigation, no cultivation, no ma- nuring, no replanting ; once planted it stands forever if desired. Endures the severest drought and will flourish where no other forage plant will grow. Young shoots and leaves can be eaten as a table vegetable like asparagus. Stems and leaves, green or dry, are greatly relished by cattle, horses and sheep, and are more nutritious than clover, lucerne millet, corn or any other forage plant. Grows 10 to 14 feet by June and gives three to four cuttings a year. Produces 100 or more tons of the most excellent and nutritious green forage to the acre. A perfect boon to cattlemen in dry and barren countries, and yet succeeds admirably in moist ground. Price, mail or express—root cuttings or small plants—10 cents each j $ per $ per 100.

It attains a height of 4 to 6 feet, and is entirely hardy. In fall it throws up a n
