[AT] Ice storm----milo

[jtchall at nc.rr.com]

Al, the seed is certainly small, kind of like turnip seed. Although I'm not 
seeing a lot of dust at the combine, when I"m dumping a load out of the 
truck it is pretty bad. The worst part is it is very itchy. Bushogging or 
even harrowing behind it will make you start itching.

It's not pearl millet.  I have noticed it too, to tell the truth I assumed 
it was just a weird sorghum mutation.

While on the topic, I have another sorghum/milo question.  My dad got hold 
of a few hundred bushels of it a few years ago when we had a terrible corn 
year, to make hog feed out of.  I always sort of thought the grain was about 
the size of a soybean, but this stuff was tiny--less than the size of a BB. 
It was also nasty, gosh-awful dusty stuff.  I was glad when it was gone!
