Sorghum And Kaffir Corn,

These crops are grown extensively
,vefy year in s.me sections OF Missouri
They yield large amount of forage,
aud IL planted before the first OF July
they may also produce a good yicld Of
grain. The best variety Of sorghum for
Missouri under the present late con
ditions is the Early Amber. For bottom
lands we recommend the Early Orange
which stands up better. This should be
planted 10 rows about thru or THREE and
one half feet apart. The most practical
way to plant sorghum is in the ordinary
corn planter, using the broom corn discs.
1t can also be planted with disc or
shoe drill. On rich lands it should al
ways be planted 10 rows. Kafdr coru is
successfully grown, especially 10 South
west Missouri, and may be grown Nth
profit 10 other sections OF the State
For the production ofgrain, Kafir corn
is IN be selected always 10 preferences to
sorghum The best varieties OF Kaffir
corn are the red Ksfiir corn and the

Plant Cora Up To July Ist.

Farmers will be urged To try many
sorts Of new forage and grain plants
which are recommended to Toe far better
than corn. This Station advises all
farmers to plant corn IN every case
where the conditions will allow this to
be done before July lst. The most i'm
portant so late, is the selection Of the
right variety. Select 10 every case that
variety OF corn which will mature earliest
10 your Reality. Some early matu'i~ g
varieties VI corn that can be reccmmen'
ded are Pride OF the North,s Riley's
Favorite, Reid's Yellow Dent, and any
varity OF Flint corn. Any one Of these
varieties will yield more grain or forage
10 Missouri than almost any other
forage crop, II planted before July l
Tuese varieties should be planted some
what thicker than tho varieties usually
grown in Missouri.
