 with a thin hull. The straw is strong and vigorous, standing up 

 well, seldom lodging. Peck, 50c; bushel, $1.25; 5 to 10 bushels at

 oat grown on the Wisconsin Experiment Farm. It is a small 

 yellow oat, very heavy, and has a very thin hull, very stiff straw, 

 and has stood up better than any other oat. Peck, 50c; bu., SI. 25

BARLEY 



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 uniformity of grain, length of head, stiffness 

 and length of straw, vigor of growth and brightness of color. 

 Peck, 60c; bushel, $2.00; 5 to 10 bushels at S1.90 



ODERBRUCKER BARLEY (Wis. No. 55)— In general appearance 

 Oderbrucker Barley is much the same as the old Manshury, matur- 

 ing 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 to rust. Peck, 60c; 

 bushel, $1.85; 5 to 10 bushels at $1.75 



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, 70c ; bushel, $2.50 : 

 5 to 10 bushels at, per bushel $2.40 



WISCONSIN PEDIGREE RYE— A new fall rye, the result of 12 

 years of careful breeding at the Wisconsin Experiment Station, 

 which for yield and uniformity of kernels eclipses all other sorts. 

 It has a strong, stiff straw with heads of unusual strength. The 

 kernels are very large and plump, almost as large as oats. Peck, 

 65c; bushel $2.25 



SPELTZ (Emmer) 



Grows and yields better under adverse conditions than any other 

 grain crop. Weight per bushel, 40 lbs. Sow l^o bushels to the acre.

 25c; per peck, 85c; per Bushel $2.85 



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 feeding six weeks after 

 sowing. One acre will pasture 36 sheep two months. It is an annual, 

 similar in appearance to the leaves of Rutabagas, but taller. 

 Per lb., 20c (by mail, 25c per lb.); 10 lbs., $1.25; 100 lbs $9.00

Progress is the best variety of spring wheat for Wisconsin. It 

 is a bearded, hard red spring wheat and is one of the best yielders. 

 The best feature, however, is that it does not rust. This was de- 

 veloped by the Wisconsin Experiment Station, 1916. 1 lb., 15c; 

 % Pk., 60c: 1 pk., $1.00; 1 bu $2.25 



MARQUIS WHEAT— The world's champion spring wheat from 

 the Northwest Territory. It outyields all other sorts, and its mill- 

 ing qualities are the best. Peck, 75c; bushel $2.00 



DURUM OR MACARONI (Kubanka) WHEAT— An exceedingly 

 valuable spring wheat for dry and semi-arid sections, withstandin.ur f 



drought far better than other sorts. Enormous yields are grown 

 of it in the western states, sometimes reaching 80 bushels to the 

 acre. Peck, 85c; bushel $3.00
