THE BEST MALTING BARLEY 
CARTERS’ PRIZE PROLIFIC 
(SEE OPPOSITE PAGE). 
This magnificent Barley is admitted by all Judges to be the best variety for Malting 
purposes in cultivation. The superiority of Carters’ Prize Prolific Barley has been fully 
established by winning the First and Second Prizes at the Windsor Show of the Royal 
Agricultural Society of England, again at Birmingham Show in 1887 (shortly after the 
Brewery Exhibition) when it was placed “First,” the “Second Prize” going to the variety 
awarded “First Honours” at Islington, whilst at the Norwich Show in 1888, and also in 
1889, its success was phenomenal, securing in 1888 the First Prize, Second Prize, Third 
Prize, and Reserve Number, and the First Prize and Second Prize in 1889— all other 
varieties in this class being placed in inferior positions by the Judges. Amongst other 
important awards may be mentioned First Prize and Second Prize, Croydon, 1889, and 
First Prize and Second Prize, Guildford, 1889. 
Carters’ Prize Prolific Barley does well on any soil ; as shown below, it is an enormous 
cropper, and by reason of its stout, bright straw, it is Jess liable to go down in stormy 
weather. It may be sown thinner than Barleys of less vigorous constitution, 5 to 7 pecks 
per acre being ample. The long, even golden ears (see Illustration) average 40 grains, 
and in some instances 44 grains have been counted in a single ear.
