Carpenter will describe thif valuable Barley ami the uses to which it may be put, while at the saat time tfiving the actual experience of one who has grown it largely: NORTHRUP, R/NG & CO., Genllcmoi : You ask me what I think of tkt WHITE HULLESS BARLEY. I have grown 60 bushels to thtj^ icre. and it is the best grain to suw for hay that grows. Sot^ early and you can cut two crops /roiii the saute solving. ? As fattening feed for hogs it has no equal. It tuaka sweeter MEAT and nicer lard by far than corn. I fattenet 20 hogs for one butcher here with it, and tnadc a gain tl 106 lbs. to the hog in tii/e weeks. The butcher said thai St never handled such fine pork before. / have tried feeding it m all ways, and I find the best way is to grind it and feed diy, with clear cold water in another trough for them to drink out of. It grows very quickly and on any kind of soil. You can sow it after all other grain is sowed, and harvest it then before wheat and oats are ready. I have sown it as late as the 18th of June a?id made a good grain crop. Stock will eat the straw in preference to "slough'" hay. The straw is small, with very kear^ 'eaves. It stools wonderfully. Once used for hay for work horses, you would n't have any other. For Flour it discounts Buckwheat. We use it all the time for hot cakes. Yours truly. 0. C. CARPENTER. For Grain, 80W 1^4 bushels to the acre. For Hav, 2 bushels. Price, lb., po
