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, richin 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 114 bushels 
per acre. 
Price, $3.00. per bushel of 66 lbs.; 10-bushei lots, $2.90 per bushel. 
KLONDYKE 
(BEARDLESS) 
The increasing demand for the seed of 
this very popular wheat would indicate 
it a most satisfactory variety over a large 
extent of territory. It is unusually pro- 
ductive, having yielded over 60 bushels per 
acre—while 50 and over is not unusual— 
and even on large acreages it seldom runs 
under 40 bushels per acre. 
The straw is very stiff and does not 
lodge even on the richest land. The head 
is long and compactly filled with choice 
white grain, frequently having five kernels 
abreast. Sow 1% bushels per acre. 
Price, $3.00 per bushel of 60 lIbs.; 
10-bushel lots, $2.90 per bushel.

wy (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 years ago, the top of the 
culms was downy with Rye culms. 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, easily 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 growth 
all the season, and stood well without 
lodging. It is very hardy.’’ Sow 1% 
bushels per acre. 
Price, $3.00 per bushel of 60 lbs.; 10- .. 
bushel lots, $2.90 per bushel. ““BEARDLESS’’ RURAL NEW YORKER WHEAT.
