\\ \ ill i, / / // ITALIAN WHITE WHEAT. 
Smooth.— From Tuscany, Italy. This 
White Wheat will not stand our cold 
northern winter. I hail to plow it dona 
as it was winter-killed. Where it has 
, been sown in tins Valley it has deterio- 
rated every year. It Is one ol" the finest 
and largest White Wheats in the world, 
and those who live in a warm and dry 
Climate can raise it to perfection. It will 
yield about 50 bushels per acre. 
Per peck, $2.00; per bushel, $7.50. 
CALIFORNIA WHITE 
WHEAT. 
Smooth.— Originally from Chili. This 
ts considered one of the very best White 
Wheat*, but it needs a warm, dry climate 
to grow it to perfection. I plowed most 
of it down this season— being winter- 
killed. Some of it, left standing, has 
made fine heads of a very large size, t 
1 only offer this Wheat to those who think 
I they can raise it, as it is one of the finest 
White Wheats in the world. It will not 
stand our wet, northern winters. Yields 
from fifty to sixty bushels per acre. 
Per peck. $1.50; per bushel, $5.00. 
ITALIAN RED MEDITER- 
RANEAN.

mated three years. It is a hardy amber Wheat,

ROGER'S ENGLISH RED MED- 
ITERRANEAN. 
Smooth.— Raised from selected English seen". 
Grain large, and ol" an amber color : heads of a 
good size; straw stiff and of good height. I 
think it will make a good Wheat when well 
acclimated, as it is doing better each year.

DIEHL'S WHITE. 
Smooth.— This variety originated in the State 
of New York, and comes up as fully to the re- 
quirements of Wheat growers as any Smooth 
White Wheat grown. It has proved uniformly 
hardy. The grain is white, plump, soft, and 
not flinty, and ripens early in the season. It is 
very prolific; the plant is very strong and 
broad-leafed ; stools well, aud endures the rig- 
ors of our northern winter as well as any other 
known variety. The grains set close to the 
rachis, and the glume, or chaff, fits closely, and 
may be called fly-proof. On good ground it 
will yield over forty bushels per acre. 
Per peck, $1-50; per bushel, $5.50. Wholesale, 
for Club rates ; 25 buxhels, $130.00; 50 bushels, 
$250.00 ,- 100 bushels, $490.00. 
FRENCH RK1> 
BOUGHTON, or TAPPAHANNOCK WHITE. 
Smooth.— From Virginia. This wheat has proved one of the best White Smooth Wheats 
in this part of the country. It ripens early and yields from thirty to forty biwnels per acre; 
the head and grain of good size. This Wheat, in some localities, will ripen earlier and 
yield better than in others. It needs a good, rich. warm, dry soil, and on Bnch soil will 
repay the farmer well for sowing. When grown to perfection, I consider it one ul' the best 
White Wheats In the country. 
Per peck, $1.50; per bushel, $5.00; Wholesale, and Club rates: 25 bushel*, $120.00; 50 
bushels, $225.00; 100 bushels, $100.00. 
WEEK'S WHITE BEARDED. 
This Wheat was round in a crop of Mediterranean Wheat by Mr. Weeks, of New York, 
and is believed to be a hybrid from the Soules and Mediterranean Wheat. This is the ear- 
best bearded White Wheat 
1 know of. li i* hardy and 
proline, with a hard and liinty 
grain, similar in size ami 
shape to the Mediterranean; 
yields as high ; ,s forty live 
nock white. bushels per acre. It has a 
good stiff straw, and Is fly, weevil and rnst proof. 1 believe this Wheat would prove hardy 
and prolific in any ran of the Doited states, as a crop can be raised on any kind of soli.
