OATS 



WISCONSIN PEDIGREE NO. 1 OATS. 



A new variety bred at the Wisconsin Experiment Station. 

 Grown along side Swedish Select, it is earlier, a stronger 

 grower and a far heavier yielder than that sort. The 

 kernels are white and plump, with a thin hull. The 

 straw is strong and vigorous, standing up well, seldom 

 lodging. 



Peek, 40e; bushel, $1.25; 5 to 10 bushels at $1.15 per 

 bushel. 



SWEDISH SELECT (WISCONSIN No. 4). 



So generally known as to need no description, except this, 

 that of several years of close investigation we have 

 found them the best all round variety under average 

 conditions. For earliness, yield and general appearance 

 they are hard to beat. The seed we offer is Wisconsin 

 grown and thoroughly cleaned, free from impurities. 

 Peek, 35c; bushel, $1.15; 5 to 10 bushels at $1.10 per 

 bushel. 





BARLEY 



WISCONSIN PEDIGREE BARLEY (WIS. No. 5). 



A new six-rowed Barley bred at the Wisconsin Experi- 

 ment Station, possessing more good qualities than any other. 

 Growers of it speak in the most enthusiastic terms of its 

 superiority over all other sorts in yield, plumpness" and uni- 

 formity of grain, length of head, stiffness and length of 

 straw, vigor of growth and brightness of color. 



Peek, 50e; bushel, $1.35; 5 to 10 bushels at $1.30. 



CHAMPION BEARDLESS BARLEY. 



For feeding it has advantage of being easier to handle 

 and safer for stock than the bearded sorts. In produc- 

 tiveness and feeding qualities it is quite equal to the 

 bearded kinds, and "while it is not generally considered as 

 good for malting purposes, it is used by malsters readily 

 and preferred by some. It, however, is most esteemed as a 

 stock feeding variety. 



Peek, 50e; bushel, $1.50; 5 to 10 bushels at $1.40. 



RYE. 



SPRING — Used extensively as a catch crop where winter 

 grain has failed. It can be sown later in. spring than 

 other grain and be ready to harvest at the same time. 



Peck, 60c; bushel, $1.75; 5 to 10 bushels at $1.70 per 

 bushel. 



WISCONSIN PEDIGREE RYE — A new fall rye the result of 

 twelve years of careful breeding at the Wisconsin Ex- 

 periment Station, which for yield and uniformity of ker- 

 nels eclipses all other sorts. It has a strong, stiff straw, 

 with heads of unusual length. The kernels are very 

 large and plump, almost as large as oats. 

 Peck, 60c; bushel, $1.75. 



ODERBRLCKER BARLEY (WIS. No. 55). 



In general appearance Oderbrucker Barley is much the 

 same as the old Manshury, maturing about the same time; 

 the main difference being in the greater yield, plumpness of 

 the kernels and stronger straw. It possesses the further 

 merit of being more resistant of rust. 



Peck, 40c; bushel, $1.25; 5 to 10 bushels at $1.20. 



WHITE HULLESS BARLEY. 



An extra early and very heavy yielding variety, and en- 

 tirely distinct from others, being more like "wheat, the grain 

 being as heavy as "wheat, with thin hulls, which are readily 

 separated when threshing. Its extreme earliness makes it 

 valuable for the northern states. As a cropper it is not 

 unusual for it to produce over 60 bushels to the acre. It has 

 no beards or hulls, making it exceedingly valuable for feed- 

 ing all kinds of stock. For fattening hogs it has no superior, 

 and for horses, compared with Oats, only half the quantity 

 is required. Our seed of it is Montana grown. Sow 1M> 

 bushels to the acre. 



Peck, 50c; bushel (48 lbs.), $1.65; 5 to 10 bushels at $1.50. 



SPELTZ. (EMMER). 



Grows and yields better under adverse conditions than 

 any other grain crop. Weight per bushel, 40 lbs. Sow iy 2 

 bushels to the acre. 



Peck, 40c; bushel, $1.15; 5 to 10 bushels at $1.00 per 

 bushel. 



BUCKWHEAT. 



JAPANESE — Very prolific, kernels about double the size of 

 the common sorts, and it ripens earlier. 

 Peck, 50c; bushel, $1.50. 



SILVER HULL — Much esteemed for making flour. 

 Peck, 50c; bushel, $1.50.
