In weisrht of grain they will make more per acre than the s ime land will make of corn Some mills have been grinding the grain for flour with good success. In the way of dry forage they make enormous returns, at a cost less than the cost of gathering alone of corn fodder. Their cultivation is as simple as that of corn. They will grow on any land where corn will, even on land too poor for corn. As soon as the seed begins to glaze, begin to cut and shock. Make the shocks sixteen rows wide, and the same distance in length. Balance it well, fur the seed is so heavy that it will go down easily. After it is well cured, stack it or house it as you would ordinary corn fodder, or let it stand in the field until wanted for use. Prepare a rack in the feed lot and feed it as hay. It is not necessary to thresh it. If it is desirable to separate the feed from the fodder, run the stajks through a threshing machine after removing all but one row of concave teeth. The grain will come out as clean as wheat, and the fodder is shredded.

Three pounds will plant one acre. Lb. 5c., per 100 lbs. $3. Bed Kaffir Corn
