JONES' RED WAVE 



(BEARDLESS; 



After several years' trial this grand Wheat has fully maintained the good opinion expressed when 

 first sent out. Customers in all winter Wheat growing sections know that the Jones' Wheats wherever 

 sown have made a good record, and will be pleased to hear of this fine Bald Red variety. It is a cross 

 between early Red Clawson and an unnamed crossbreed of Russian parentage. The heads are very long 

 and broad, filled with medium, long, large, hard, dark kernels, rich in gluten. Straw, golden; above medium 

 height, stocky, very strong, thick walled and not liable to go down; heads slightly leaning, hence not liable 

 to sprout in the field. This variety gave a yield of 49 bushels and 2 pounds per acre in a field, the balance 

 of which was sown to Dawson Golden Chaff that produced only 27 bushels per acre. Sow 1>^ bushels 

 per acre. 



Price, $3.50 per bushel of 60 lbs.; 10-bushel lots, $3.40 per bushel. 



STONER'S MIRACLE 



(BEARDED) 



.-ton'T .s Miracle is a very notahlr 

 variety. It pos.'^esses the advantages < : 

 heavy j-ield — stiff, long straw — fine, hard, 

 red grains — disease resisting qualities. It 

 1.=: an excellent producer both of straw and 

 grain and is .sure to give the grower complete 

 satisfaction in both of these respects. 



The exceedingly fine grain fills out well, 

 is large, very plump, rich in color, hard in 

 texture, and its milling qualities are unsur- 

 passable. All growers of this variety have 

 been pleased mth the results oljtained and 

 recommend it very highly. Sow 11^ 

 bushels to the acre. 



Price, $3.25 per bushel of 60 lbs; 10- 

 bushel lots, $3.15 per bushel. 



RURAL 

 NEW YORKER No. 6 



(BEARDLESS) 



This beardless variety is a hybrid between 

 Rye and Armstrong Wheat, though all traces 

 of Rye have disappeared and it now appears 

 a handsome, beardless Wheat. It succeeds 

 and produces heavy crops on poor, thin 

 land, where Wheat could not be successfully 

 or profitably grown and it also has extreme 

 hardiness to recommend it. When first 

 raised, some j^ears ago, the top of the 

 culms was downy with Rye c>ilms. This 

 characteristic could not be fixed, so that 

 for this variety the culms having no down 

 were alone selected. The gold-colored 

 straw is very thick and strong, easilj' sup- 

 porting the heavy grain without breaking. 

 The large amber kernels are placed four to a 

 breast, eight breasts to a side, with long 

 symmetrical heads having a brown chaff. 

 One of our growers says: 



"It stools as strong as any wheat I ever 

 saw. It had a vigorous, healthy growtli 

 all the season, and stood well without 

 lodging. It is very hardy." Sow 1}4 

 bushels per acre. 



Price, $3.25 per bushel of 60 lbs.; 10- 

 bushel lots, $3.15 per bushel. "BK.\Hi)Lt;ss ' ui livL new torkkk wheat
