A NEW VARIETY OF HARD WHEAT. 
Since three years ago we have raised this wheat from a 
small sample, and have this year threshed from 17 bushels 
seed 317 bushels of fine wheat. It needs less seed per acre 
than any other wheat. 1 bushel per acre is ample when 
ground is in good condition. This, with the splendid qual¬ 
ity and extraordinary yield, has induced us to offer some of 
the wheat for sale for seed at the following prices: 1 bu., 
$3.00; K bu., $1.50; 1 peck, $1 00, or less quantity if required. 
A discount given for larger quantities. If you want to im¬ 
prove your wheat yield, then get some of this wheat. Send 
money by Registered Letter or Postal Notes. Address, 
Heimerdinger Bros., Golden Gate, Brown Co., Minnesota.
