HENDERSON'S CROP SPECIAL— WHEAT 



PRICE'S WONDEK 



(BEARDED) 



Price's Wonder was originated by Mr. R. H. Price of Blaeksburg, 

 Va., about nine years ago, and he only sold bis stock after long experi- 

 mentation and trial under conditions both favorable and unfavorable, 

 had convinced him and other authorities that in Price's Wonder he 

 had a variety of undoubted merit. There is no doubt that it is a 

 great addition to the bearded varieties because it is a wonderful 

 stooler — no more than 1J4 bushels per acre need be sown — and it is a 

 most bountiful yielder even on rough land and when sown late in the 

 season. The heads fairly bend over with their weight of plump grain. 



The straw is thick walled and very stiff, standing up remarkably 

 well against storms, and it is of very uniform length. While we do not 

 say Price's Wonder is entirely fly and rust-proof, we do say that so 

 far as yet known it has not been affected. It ripens early. The grain 

 is large, plump, dark red in color and very hard, and the chaff is white. 



This is a new variety well worthy of the attention of all wheat 

 growers. 



Price, $4.25 per bushel of 60 lbs. ; 10-bush. lots, $4. 15 per bush. 



GOLDEN WAVE 



(BEARDED) 



Golden Wave Wheat is considered by many to be the best of the 

 bearded varieties, and there is no doubt but that it is thoroughly 

 reliable, and will do well on either rich or poor land. 



Besides being a great cropper, it stools out exceptionally well and 

 stands up under the most trying weather conditions. The stalks 

 of Golden Wave are all long, stiff and thick walled, and all heads are 

 about the same distance from the ground. It is this characteristic 

 which suggested the name, "Golden Wave" which is exactly what it 

 looks like. 



Due to its thick-walled stem and extra stiffness this variety resists 

 rust and fly better than most others, and produces uniformly good 

 crops, yields of more than forty bushels per acre are not at all un- 

 common. 



The heads are of great length, for a bearded variety, and often 

 contain as many as fifty-eight grains. 



The berry is plump, red in color, quite large, and the chaff is amber- 

 brown. Sow 7 1% bushels per acre. 



Price, $4.25 per bushel of 60 lbs.; 10 bush, lots, $4.15 per bush. 



SILVER SHEAF 

 LONGBERRY RED 



(BEARDED) 



This is recommended by Mr. Jones as one of his best bearded 

 varieties. 



It may be sown very late in the fall, and thrives well even under 

 very rough conditions. It is just the wheat to sow on land, that 

 cannot be properly prepared for wheat. It bears longer heads than 

 any other variety, in fact as has been said by a grower "everything 

 about it is long — long berry, long straw, very long bearded heads and 

 the yield is also very long." It is extremely hardy, its stooling qualities 

 equal any other, and it ripens early. Straw of light yellow color, 

 medium tall, thick- walled and strong; head long, wide and full; chaff 



SILVER SHEAF 

 LONGBEKP.Y 

 RED WHEAT 



Originated from a 

 cross between 

 American Bronze 

 Lancaster and a 



seedlingLongberry 



thin and silvery-white; grain large, dark and flinty, and nearly as long 

 as rye kernels. Very little seed is required and 1J^ bushels per acre 

 is all you need to sow. (See engraving). 



Price, $4.25 per bushel of 60 lbs.; 10 bush, lots, $4.15 per bush. 



TRUE DWARF ESSEX RAPE 



PROVIDES PERFECT PASTURE AND 

 IS GREATLY RELISHED BY ALL STOCK 



There are several varieties of Rape, but care should be taken to procure the DWARF ESSEX, or English, as it is sometimes called, 

 which does not seed the same season as sown, excepting when sown too early and the young plants are touched by frost. In northern States 

 it should be sown from April to end of August for fall pasturing, but as it thrives best in cool weather, it should not be sown in the Southern 

 States until September or October for winter pasture. In the latitude of New York it should be sown in April, July or August. Its fattening 

 properties are probably twice as good as those of Clover, and for sheep the feeding value of Rape excels all other plants we know of. Even 

 so far South as Alabama it has proved a boon to the farmer. 



To secure the best results, the Rape should be sown in drills. Sov 

 pasture. Sow 4 lbs. per acre broadcast, 2 to 3 lbs. per acre in drills. 



4 lbs. per acre broadcast, 2 to 3 lbs. per acre on drills. For winter 

 Price, 30c. per lb., $13.00 per bushel of 50 lbs., 100 lbs., $25.00.
