NEW JAPANESE BUCKWHEAT. SSSJ MILLET and BUGKWHEAT. New Japanese Buckwheat. Introduced into cultivation by us in i88j. It is seldom that such a sterling article as this is placed before the agricultural community, and we would advise all who are growers of Buckwheat to give this new and distinct Japanese variety a trial in preference to any other variety, whether it be for milling, for the apiary or aviary. A glance at our illustration will show that the kernels are at least twice the size of those of any other variety, and of a shape peculiar and distinct from all others. The color of the kernels is also most distinct, being a rich dark shade of brown. The straw is heavier, it branches more, and does not need to be sown as thickly as the other kinds. Flour made from it is greater in quantity and equal in quality if not supe- rior to that of any other Buckwheat, and. as the yield shows, it is enormously prolific. It ripens a week earlier than the Silver Hull, and yields two or three times as much. It can be planted as far north as New Hampshire. {See cut.) $ per bushel ; 10 bushel lots, $1,30 per bushel. Truly the Japanese Buckwheat is one of the greatest improvements in a single line of grain, of the present age. All other kinds of buckwheat can be well thrown aside, and not only the bee-keepers of our land, but farmers in general, can unite in tendering a vote of thanks to our enterprising seedsman, Peter Henderson.â " Gleanings in Bee ; Your Japanese Buckwheat is a grand success and an acquisition of sterling worth, outyielding all other varieties fourfold, with ordinary culture.âJacob Senn, Cheswold, Del.
