MISCELLANEOUS FIELD SEEDS 
SILVER HULLED BUCKWHEAT. An im- 
porved sort, much excelling the old ' common 
variety which it has about superseded with us. It 
blooms longer, matures sooner, and yields double 
the amount per acre. Husks thinner, corners less 
prominent and seeds of a beautiful light gray color. 
Flour made of this variety is pronounced better 
and more nutritious than others. Thirty to fifty 
pounds to an acre Lb. 10c 
CANARY SEED. As easily grown as wheat. 
Requires similar culture. 20 to 30 pounds to an 
acre. We are in the market for seed Lb. 30c 
JAPANESE BUCKWHEAT. A new variety 
that has been raised here with good success. Early 
and very productive, with kernels twice the size 
of any other buckwheat, of a dark rich brown color 
and makes a superior flour. As it possesses a branch- 
ing habit only half as much seed is required to plant 
an acre. Straw is very stiff and stands well up. 
Lb. 10c 
FLAX SEED. Largely grown in this State for 
seed. Sow one-half to three-quarters bushel to 
the acre. Can furnish choice, re-cleaned seed any 
time at market price. 
We give special attention to our grain, procuring them from 
reliable growers who select for seed. We then reclean the grain 
in our warehouses. We do not give prices in the catalog as these 
prices fluctuate with the market. We enclose our Pink List with 
the catalog and will be glad to send this list any time you ask for it 
BARLEY 
Sow 60 to 90 pounds per acre. 
SIX-ROWED BARLEY. This barley succeeds best on lands 
more sandy and lighter than those adapted to wheat. It is sown 
in the spring, and can be grown farther North than any other grain. 
Sow from two to two and a half bushels per acre. 
CHAMPION BEARDLESS BARLEY. A new beardless barley, 
earliest barley known, about ten days earlier than other kinds. 
A good yielder, six-rowed and strictly beardless. It can be handled 
as easy as oats. This barley is not strictly pure and has a few 
bearded heads in it. 
WHITE HULLESS BARLEY. This is used mainly for food, and 
it produces one of the best hog fatteners that we know of. It is 
equal to the best Kansas, Iowa, Nebraska or Illinois corn, as a 
fattener, and it is surer than most any other crop. The yield 
the past season was fifty bushels to the acre. Hulless barley did 
splendidly. We are urging farmers and stock raisers to give this 
splendid sort a trial. 
BEARDLESS BARLEY 
WINTER BARLEY. Has a stooling habit like rye. 
winter pasture. Should be sown in September. 
Makes fine 
OATS 
Sow 50 to 65 pounds per acre. 
No crop gives better results by change of seeds than oats. If you have been re-seeding the same 
strain for several years, now is the time to change. Do not compare our select re-cleaned strains with the 
common oats frequently offered as seed oats. 
NEW KHERSON. The plant is a vigourous but 
not a rapid grower. The straw is short and on the 
same land it stands shorter than any other oats 
tested. It is not a side oat. The berries are a light 
yellow in color, small but numerous, and have a very 
thin hull. They usually weigh well per bushel, and 
n this respect, as well as in yield per acre, they 
have led all other varieties. 
RED RUST-PROOF. Largely grown in this 
State; it is a heavy yielder and sure cropper and en- 
tirely rust-proof, makes a very heavy grain. The 
stock in this variety is Kansas grown from stock 
obtained from Texas, which will, we are sure, prove 
satisfactory. 
NEW SIXTY DAY OATS. This new variety is highly recommended by our State Agricultural College. 
Its particular merits are its rust-pr«of qualities which are very marked indeed. It has very stiff straw, a 
poin$ which will prevent lodging in seasons where the straw will make a rank growth. Farmers who have 
grown this variety are delighted with it and say it is from three to five days earlier than the Kherson. Try 
it. We recommend it very strongly. 
WINTER TURF OATS. Sown early, are the best yielding and produce finer quality grain than spring 
oats. In good land they grow four to five feet tall, producing a splendid yield of very finest grain oats, which 
is so full of kernel that a measured bushel runs 40 to 42 pounds. The straw is not coarse and hard and if 
the oats are cut green, will make good hay. They stand up well. They require 1)4 to 2 bushels per acre. 
Seeds go at parcel post rates. Allow 5c per lb. for small lots and regular parcel post charges for larger 
quantities.
