WINTER WHEAT AND RYE, 



RECLEANED WISCONSIN GROWN SEED WHEATS, MUCH MORE 



SUPERIOR FOR SEED PURPOSES THAN WHEATS CROWN 



IN NEW YORK, OHIO. INDIANA OR ILLINOIS.

THE INTERNATIONAL NO. 



THE INTERNATIONAL, No. 6. 

 (Bald.) 



(The most Productive Wheat for thin land.) 



A new Wheat which now occupies a first place 

 among leaders and destined to supersede many of 

 the most popular varieties. It makes a very stiff 

 straw, which seldom lodges, even on very rich soil. 

 It produces heavy crops on poor land, where most 

 varieties of Wheat cannot be successfully or profit- 

 ably grown, and has the further merit of being 

 extremely hardy. On rich soil it yields very heavy 

 crops, and is not much incliaed to shell when over- 

 ripe, as many varieties do. It stools very heavily. 

 In the section of New York State where many of 

 the best and most popular sorts of Winter Wheat 

 were first introduced the farmers are very enthus- 

 iastic in favor of the International No. 6. 



Peck, 75c; bushel, $2.00 2% bushels, $4.50 



EARLY GENESEE GIANT. 



(Half Bearded.) 



Remarkable for its thrifty fall growth and heavy 

 root, with the ability to withstand spring frosts and 

 summer drought ; stools out very early in spring ; 

 straw strong and short-jointed ; heads well filled 

 with fine hard amber grain of exceptionally fine 

 milling qualitie s; is very productive, yielding over 

 Q2 bushels to the acre. 



Peck, 60c; bushel, $1.75 



JONES' WINTER FIFE. (Bald.) 



The best Winter Wheat grown. Equal to No. 1 Hard Sgring Wheat. It is a strong grower, pro- 

 ducing a very large crop of transparent, hard, dark grain, frequently weighing 65 pounds to the 

 measured bushel. It ripens early, and should not be harvested nntii fully ripe, as the grain improves 

 in quality and color the longer it remains in the straw, and does not shell out in the field. 



Price, 50c per peck ; $1.50 per bushel. 



EARLY RED CLAWSON. (Bald.) 



The earliest Winter Wheat. This variety Is a cross between Golden Cross and Clawson, and in- 

 herits all the good qualities of the parents— extreme hardiness, rapid growth, large kernels and enor- 

 mous productiveness. It is especially desirable for heavy clay soils, and when sown on rich ground 

 should be seeded very lightly, owing to its remarkable stooling propensities. 



Price, 50c per peck ; $1.50 per bushel. 



RYE. 



Rye is a crop that should be more extensively grown by all our farmers. It is a i)aying crop, even 

 on poor sandy soils yielding as much as 35 bushels per acre, while on light rich soils it would not be to 

 much to expect up to 60 bushels per acre. It is also a very valuable crop to seed down Grasses with, 

 owing to the fact that it matures so early, giving the grasses a longer growing season after harvesting^ 



HUNGARIAN \YINTER RYE. 



A variety of recent introduction, very strong strawed, seldom lodges, and is a great yielder, often 

 giving 50 to 60 bushels of very bold, handsome grain (much larger than the common Winter Rye), and 

 of superior milling qualities.
