Mammoth Russian.— The accompanying illustration was drawn from a mammoth head of this variety. Single heads measure from twelve to twenty- two inches in diameter, and contain an immense quantity of seed which is highly valued by all farmers and poultrv breeders, who have tried it, as an excellent and cheap food for fowls. They eat it greedily, fatten well on it and obtain a bright lustrous plumage, and strong, healthy condition, better than on almost any other food. It is the best egg producing fo xl known for poultry. It can be raised cheaper than corn, and is destined to be an article of great value as soon as it be- comes generally known. Every farmer should plant some of this seed in any waste piece of ground, any time from early spring up to the middle of July. It is a wonderful improvement over the old native sunflower, and besides the great, value of the seed as a poullry and stock food, its strong, thick stalks can be properly used as fuel. Three quarts of the seed will plant one acre. The seed is also recommended as an excellent food for horses. Pkt, 5c ; oz, 10c; lb, 30c; per express, 10 lbs. $ TOMATO.
