 this country from 

 Russia and now 

 well established 

 here. It matures a

 days earlier than

 prairie soils where most Oats lodge badly it is unequalled. 

 Peck 35c; bushel $1.15; 5 to 10 bushels at $1.10 per bushel. 



WISCONSIN PEDIGREE OATS. 



A new variety developed at the "Wisconsin Experiment Sta- 

 tion and offered generally this year for the first time. Our 

 seed was grown from stock received direct from the Experi- 

 ment Station, the grower, a member of the Association, 

 speaking very highly in praise of the new variety's superior 

 characteristics. Our stock is limited. Price per peck 40c; 

 bushel $1.35. 



SWEDISH SELECT OATS. (Wis. No. 4.) 



Introduced by the U. S. Department of Agriculture a few 

 years ago and now the most popular Oats on the market. Its 

 good points are earliness, yield, fine appearance of grain, stiff- 

 ness of straw and freedom from rust and smut. It appears to 

 be best adapted to high land, the best returns being obtained 

 on clay loam. Yields as high as 85 bushels per acre have been 

 secured in this State. 



Peck 30c; bushel $1.00; 5 to 10 bushels 90c; 15 to 50 bush- 

 els 80c. 



REGENERATED SWEDISH SELECT OATS. 

 Canadian Grown. 



The stock we offer was imported originally from the Gar- 

 ton Seed Co., England, who are the originators, and has been 

 grown for the past four or five years in Canada where enor- 

 mous yields of very heavy Oats have been secured. The yield 

 of Canadian grown Regenerated Oats in "Wisconsin is about 

 35 per cent, more than the maximum yield of ordinary Swedish 

 Select Oats. 



Peck 65c; bushel (32 lbs.) $1.75; 5 bushels and over $1.65. 



BUCKWHEAT. 



Silver Hull — This variety sown at the same time as the 

 common Buckwheat, matures a few days sooner, and 

 yields nearly double. The flour is whiter and more nu- 

 tritious. Peck 50c; bushel $1.50 



Japanese — An early and very prolific variety, with kernels 

 about double the size of ordinary sorts. It ripens a 

 week earlier than the Silver Hull and yields at least 



twice as much. Peck 50c; bushel $1.50 



Subject to Market fluctuations. 



SPELTZ OR EMMER. 



A Sure Cropper in Any Kind of Soil. Grand Drought Resister. 



Withstands the extremes of heat and cold better than any cereal we know of. It is read- 

 ily eaten by all kinds of stock and its feeding qualities are excellent, is enormously pro- 

 ductive and can be treated in the same manner as other grain. Sow broadcast, using 

 60 lbs. per acre. Weight per bushel 40 lbs. Peck 40c; bushel $1.25; 5 bushels $6.00
