OATS— (Continued.) 
Golden Rust Proof Oats— This Oat has been grown the past 
season (1917) in Yellowstone Co., Mont, with great suc- 
cess. The grower reports that it yielded 80 bushels to 
the acre, and not under the most favorable conditions, 
being over-irrigated. In spite of this it would not lodge 
at any part of the field, and no signs of rust appeared 
on any part of the crop. 
SPELTZ or EMMER 
Facts about Speltz — It resists drouth; thrives on poor 
lands, in stony ground, forest regions, on the prairies; 
makes a crop with almost any condition of soil and clim- 
ate; endures a great deal of frost; is not readily damaged 
by harvest rains; is not susceptible to rust or smut; yields 
more tlnan oats, wheat or barley: better feed than barley; 
the straw is used for fattening stock; stock eat both grain 
and straw. Ripens early. 
BARLEY

RYE 
SPRING RYE— True stock. Spring Rye makes an excellent 
crop where winter grain has been killed out, or for sow- 
ing 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 particu- 
lar attention to the fact that we offer genuine. Spring 
Rye. 
FALL RYE — Winter Rye is much hardier than wheat and 
can be grown on a greater variety of soils. It will thrive 
in dry seasons and on light sandy loam. It is grown for 
grain, fodder, soiling purposes and green manure. Sow 
Aug. 20th to Sept. 15th — 1% bu. per acre if for grain, and 
1% to 2 bu. per acre for Fall pasture. If drilled 2 to 
2% in. deep there will be less danger of Winter killing. 
Ready for delivery in August.

White Hulless — No Barley of 
which we have knowledge bias 
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 earli- 
ness, yield and quality. 
Us Valuable Properties — It is 
hulless, beardless, and eiarly; it 
weighs over 60 pounds to the 
measured bushel; yields well on 
poor land; yields enormously on 
good land; makes better pork 
than corn; it is of inestimable 
\alue to every one who feeds 
slock. It is often grown for hay, 
coming very early and providing 
rich food. It should be cut just 
before if, becomes ripe and while 
the straw is green. In this con- 
dition it is relished by all kinds 
of stock. The straw is stiff and 
straight, and seldom if ever does 
it lodge. Use 50 lbs. seed to acre 
on dry land for grain crop. 
Two-Row— A boarded hulled va- 
riety which has shown in Mon- 
tana experiment station very 
heavy yields. Straw rather 
short especially in dry seasons, 
irrigation sow as early as the 
When grown without 
weather will permit. 
Six Row— A well known and popular bearded and hulled 
variety, yielding heavily and with grain of the highest 
quality.
