SUGAR CORN, for Green Fodder. This is better than any field corn for green fodder crops, from the fact that it is so very sweet and nutri- tions that cattle will eat every part of the stalk and leaves. Peck 65 cts.; per bushel §; per sack of 2 bushels § KAFFIR CORN. The heads are long and perfectly erect, well filled with white grain, flecked with reddish-brown spots. The aver- age height of growth on good, strong land, is five and one- half to six feet. The seed heads grow from ten to twelve inches in length, and the product of grain on good land easily reaches fifty to sixty bushels per acre.
