Bus., $ Add cost of bags (18 cts) for each 2 RAPE, Rape, Dwarf Essex. A forage plant of the highest ]i can be sown in this latitude as late as September, and still later further South ; it is sown broadcast at the rate of 10 lbs. to the acre, but is better drilled, in which case 5 lbs. to the rcre are enough. In a few weeks from time of sowing, sheep, hogs or cattle can be turned on it, and all reports agree that they gain weight faster on this than any other fodder. 10 cts. per lb. (by mnil, IS cts.); 10 lbs., 90 cts.; per bus. (50 lbs), $325; per 100 lbs., $625. Add cost of bags (18 cts ) for each 2-bushel. SELECTED SEED WHEAT. Fultzo-riediterranean Wheat {Bald). A cross of Fultz on Hybrid Mediterranean, which has absorbed the best quali- ties of these old stand-bys. The heads are large and full oi beautilul, plump, red grains. The straw is stout and Mifl, thereby enabling it to stand up well. This new variety is pro- ductive, and makes a crop of more than the average yield. I'eck. fiO cts.; bus., $ Add cost of bags (18 cts.) lor each 2-bushel. Improved DIetz Longberry Wheat (Bearded). This val- uable early wheat will do well on all kinds of soil. Sown either early or late, it always yields a large crop of choice higli-grade wheat, even after hard, icy winters. It is a very close-chaffed wheat, and holds the berry light. Peck, 50 cts.; bus., $].60. Add cost of bags (18 cts.) for each 2-bushel. Improved Wheat (Bald). This variety is more widely known in the United States than any other kind, and probably more acreage is sown of this than any other; grows to a medi- um height, with stiff, strong straw, ripens early, and seldom fails to make a good crop.
