REGENERATED SWEDISH SELECT OATS. 

 The stock we offer was imported by us direct from the Gar- 

 ton Seed Co., England, who are the originators. By their 

 methods the yield and quality have been greatly improved. 

 The Oats this year actually weighs 50 lbs. to the bushel, and 

 the yield was about 25 per cent, more than the maximum 

 yield of Swedish Select Oats in this country.

RYE. 



Rye is a crop that should be more extensively grown by all our farmers. It is a paying crop, 



even on poor sandy soils. It is also a very valuable crop with which to seed down grasses. 



New "Petkus" Winter Rye — A new Rye from Germany that will be of great value to the 

 farmers of Wisconsin. This new Rye came through the United States Department of Agri- 

 culture, Washington, to the Wisconsin Experiment Station, where it has been thoroughly 

 tested four years. We have the following report from the Wisconsin Experiment Sta- 

 tion: "Your letter of the 14th of November in regard to 'Petkus' Rye to hand. Have ex- 

 amined the record of this grain and find that it has yielded an average of 40.3 bushels per 

 acre for four years. The Rye grows tall and has long and well-filled heads. The grain 

 itself has the largest kernel of any Rye we have ever grown. It is rather light in color 

 and should make a very good grade of flour. In fact, it is recommended by the United States 

 Department of Agriculture as one of the best bread ryes grown in this country." In Ger- 

 many this Rye is much esteemed for making bread, and this together with its great pro- 

 ductiveness and strong stiff straw makes it particularly desirable. " Peck 50c; bushel $1.50 



Spring — This Rye is invaluable as a catch crop for sowing where winter wheat has failed. 

 Peck 50c; bushel $1.50; 5 bushels V-dG 



Hungarian Winter — A remarkably hardy and strong-growing Rye of superior milling qual- 

 ities. Peck 40c; bushel $1.35; 5 bushels : $6.50
