SPELTZ OR EMMER 
(Sow 70 to 80 lbs. per acre.) 
This grain more nearly resembles wheat than any other grain. 
For fattening all Ifinds of stocl< — and poultry, it is claimed to 
be superior to either corn, oats or wheat. Its yield is often 
enormous, especially on irrigated lands. It is a wonderful hay 
producer, as its stooling habit is very strong, as many as 100 
stallis having been known to spring from one grain. Makes an 
excellent pasture, and has yielded 4 tons of hay to the acre, 
under good conditions. A good producer on lands that will not 
grow wheat profitably, 
SFRHTO- RTE — True stock. Spring Bye makes an excellent crop 
where winter grain has been killed out. or for sowing where 
a fall crop has not been planted. For the dry farmer needing 
a sure crop of hay. Rye can be depended on to produce a good 
tonnage of excellent hay. Does not grow quite so large straw 
as Winter Rye, but usually yields well and grain is of fine 
quality. We call particular attention to the fact that we offer 
genuine Spring Rye. 
FAIiIi BYE — Winter Rye is much hardier than Wheat and can 
be grown on a greater variety on soils. It will thrive in dry 
seasons and on light sandy loam. It Is grown for grain, fod- 
der, soiling purposes and green manure. Sow Aug. 20th to 
Sept. 15th — l>/i bu. per acre if for grain, and H4 to 2 bu. per 
acre for Fall pasture. If drillel 2 to 2% in. deep there will 
be less danger of Winter killing. Ready for delivery in August.

BARLEY 
Cutting Wblte Eulless Barley, John T, Jacfcion Bancb, Fony, 
Montana, 
White Hxilless — No Barley of which we have knowledge has 
proved so valuable to the stock raiser as the White Hulless. 
It is not a malting variety, but for feeding purposes there is 
no Barley raised its equal in earllness, yield and quality. 
Its ValuaWe Properties — It is hulless, beardless, and early; it 
weighs over 60 pounds to the measured bushel; yields well on 
good land; makes better pork than corn; it i.s of inestimable value 
to every one who feeds stock. It is often grown for hay, coming 
very early and provldin.g rich food. It should be cut Just before 
it becomes ripe and while the straw is green. In this condition 
it is relished by all kinds of stock. The straw Is stiff and 
straight, and sel lorn if ever does it lodge. Use 50 lbs. seed to 
acre on dry land for grain crop. 
BABIiEV — Guy Mayle — (Beardless and Hulless) — A blue barley 
similar to the White Hulless, but claimed to be a heavier 
yielder. It is a cross between the Black variety and the White, 
and requires the same treatment as the White Hulless. 
Two-Bow — A bearded hulled variety which has shown in Mon- 
tana experiment .station very heavy yields. Straw rather 
short, especially in dry seasons. When grown without Irriga- 
tion sow as early as the weather will permit. 
Six Bow — .\ well known and popular bearded and hulled variety, 
viel 'ing heavily and with grain of the highest quality. 
BABI<EV — White Smyrna — A white two-row bearded barley in- 
troduced by the U. S. Department of Agriculture. In the sev- 
eral tests at the drv land experiment stations It has taken the 
lead in yields. This variety appears to have the ability to 
make grain If it has to sncrlflce length of straw to do so. 
During the past two years It has met the unusual drought con- 
ditions, and Is the most promising variety the Agricultural 
Experiment stations hav« today.
