FARM SEEDSl 



WHEAT 



Blue Ribbon Wheat — A new bearded spring variety which 

 has won a number of prizes, including the Milwaukee 

 Chamber of Commerce Silver Trophy in 1910. It orig- 

 inated with Mr. H. E. Krueger, Dodge County, Wiscon- 

 sin. It is a large yielder and very early, with plump 

 kernels. The straw is short and stiff. It never has 

 shown any sign of rust, blight or smut. 

 Peck, 60c; bushel, $2.00. 



Minnesota No. 169 Spring Wheat — It is a remarkably heavy 

 yielder, and this, together with its excellent milling and 

 baking qualities, makes it an exceedingly popular vari- 

 ety, so much so that it is now probably grown more 

 extensively than any other sort in Minnesota. 

 Peck, 50c; bushel, $1.50; 5 to 10 bushels at $1.40 per 

 bushel. 



Scotch Fife Spring Wheat — An early and very productive 

 hard variety, possessing splendid milling qualities. 

 Peck, 50c; bushel, $1.50; 5 to 10 bushels at $1.40 per 

 bushel. 



Marquis Wheat— The world's champion spring wheat from 

 the Northwest Territory. It outyields all other sorts, 

 and its milling qualities are the best. 

 Peck, 60c; bushel, $2.00. 



Durum or Macaroni (Kubanka) AVheat — An exceedingly val- 

 uable spring wheat for dry and semi-arid sections, with- 

 standing drought far better than other sorts. Enormous 

 yields are grown of it in the western states, sometimes 

 reaching 80 bushels to the acre. 

 Peck, 50c; bushel, $1.50; 5 to 10 bushels at $1.40. 



World's Champion Winter Wheat — This wheat originated in 

 Wisconsin a few years ago and won the World's Cham- 

 pionship at the International Exposition at Omaha in 

 1909. It is a red bearded sort, possessing more good 

 qualities than any other winter wheat we know of. 

 Peck, 60c; bushel, $2.00. 



RAPE 



Dwarf Essex Rape — No crop is easier grown and none more 

 profitable for hog and sheep feed. Five pounds of seed 

 are enough for an acre broadcast, and it is ready for feed- 

 ing six weeks after sowing. One acre will pasture thirty- 

 six sheep two months. It is an annual, similar in appear- 

 ance to the leaves of Rutabagas, but taller. There is no 

 danger of its ever becoming a pest, as it will not live over 

 winter or produce seed in this country. 



Many growers are in the habit of sowing it with grain, 

 using about 2 lbs. of seed to the acre, and it is ready to 

 use a few weeks after harvest. Others sow it in corn at 

 the last cultivation. The best way, however, is to sow it 

 alone either early in spring or as a catch crop after grain 

 is harvested or after an early potato crop. A good plan 

 is to sow it in drills about thirty inches apart and culti- 

 vate. By this method it is only necessary to use from 1% 

 to 2 lbs. of seed to the acre. 



Per lb., 10c (by mail, 20c per pound); 10 lbs., 75c; 

 25 lbs., $1.65; 100 lbs., $6.00. 



If seed is wanted in new Seamless Bags, add 20 cts. 

 for each bag required.
