Mountain Crowing Breeds Early Maturity and Strong Vitality 
53 
Heavy Mountain Seed Oats 
Plump Mountain Grown Seed filled with 
vitality. While the Government standard 
for Oats is 32 pounds to the bushel, our 
Mountain Grown Seed frequently weighs 
45 pounds to the measured bushel. Oats 
make a heavy yielding crop for high alti¬ 
tudes. 
Colorado Side Oats. Certified seed. Good 
weight and clean, early maturing; straw 
stiff and heavy, will not blow down or 
lodge as easily as other varieties. The 
cut at light shows them to be heavy pro¬ 
ducers. Colorado Side Oats are espe¬ 
cially adapted for the higher altitudes. 
Although we have a large stock of these 
Oats, suggest you place your order 
early, as we have never yet been able to 
fill all our orders for these Mountain 
Grown Side Oats.

best yielders on good soils. A standard variety, 
sometimes known as Newmarket.

variety for light soils because of its heavy root 
development. 
See Colored Price Sheet for Current Prices. 
New Hulless Oats. Very early and a heavy yielder. 
Threshes practically clean of all hull; solid grain 
as heavy as wheat. In great demand for rabbit 
feed by the many rabbit breeders. Also excellent 
for calves and poultry. See Colored Price Sheet

Plant Winter RYE in Spring lor 
Pasture 
Winter Rye, besides its use as a grain crop, is often 
seeded in the Spring, either alone or with winter 
vetch, as a pasture crop. When sown in the Spring 
and kept pastured, Winter Rye will last for three or 
four years with one sowing. Our Seed Rye is all 
Mountain Grown, assuring the strong vitality neces¬ 
sary on this crop. 
Rosen Rye. The well filled heads and high yield of 
grain are the main features of this New Winter 
Rye. Rosen Rye was originated by the Michigan 
Experiment Station; our seed was grown from cer¬ 
tified seed obtained from the Michigan Agricultural 
College. 
See Colored Price Sheet for Current Prices. 
Winter Rye. Valuable for pasture or grain crops. 
Does well on poor soils or lands that are subject 
to blow. 
See Colored Price Sheet for Current Prices. 
Spring Rye. Not as large straw as Winter Rye but 
yields a good grain crop of fine quality. Also used 
for early pasture or hay.

Mountain Grown Seed Wheal 
Marquis Wheat. In line with the work being carried 
on by the Colorado Agricultural College, we im¬ 
ported some second generation Registered Marquis 
Spring Wheat, grown in Canada, and registered by 
the Canadian Seed Growers’ Association. This 
wheat has now been grown here for several years, 
and while the yield has been greatly increased, it 
still retains the wonderful milling qualities that 
make this the premium milling wheat of the con¬ 
tinent. 
See Colored Price Sheet for Current Prices. 
jDicklow Wheat. A new soft wheat yielding over 60 
bushels to the acre. Not a milling wheat but the 
finest feed wheat. Outyields all other varieties. 
See Colored Price Sheet for Current Prices. 
Field Beans 
The best paying crop of any in many mountain 
sections. The average yield under irrigation is 1800 
pounds per acre, some crops have yielded over 3000 
pounds per acre. There has been a good market price 
on this crop for a number of years, but even at a low 
price it will bring big returns per acre. We can sell 
carlot crops for you. 
Mexican Pinto. The standard variety in Colorado 
and New Mexico. Easiest raised, heaviest yielder 
and seldom any dockage for discolored Beans. 
Hardy, and the only variety for dry lands. Our true 
type seed will give a heavy yield. 
See Colored Price Sheet for Current Prices. 
Great Northern or Large White Navy. Matures a 
crop in 80 days; earlier than Pintos; usually a 
better price, but not quite as heavy yield. 
See Colored Price Sheet for Current Prices. 
Small Michigan Pea Navy. A very heavy yielding, 
small white bean, 1200 to 1 type. See Colored 
Price Sheet for Current Prices. 
Field Peas 
San Luis Valley Field Peas can be grown in any 
altitude up to 9,000 feet with success. This is the 
Pea that made the San Luis Valley, Colorado, famous. 
They make exceptionally fine feed for lambs and hogs 
and the straw is relished by all stock. For a hay 
crop peas are usually sown with oats, and the crop 
cut before fully matured. If threshed the dry peas 
should be ground for cattle, but are usually fed whole 
to sheep and sows. A field pea crop is a wonderful 
soil builder, putting nitrogen into the soil for fol¬ 
lowing crops. Our field pea seed is all high altitude 
grown.

High Altitude Seed Potatoes 
Dry Land Grown 
Market prices are quoted on our Colored Price lists 
sent at any time on request. It is well to order early, 
before some varieties are sold out. We will, of 
course, make shipment on the date you specify, and 
when the weather appears favorable. As potatoes 
are perishable, we cannot assume any responsibility 
for freezing in transit. 
The varieties listed below are both early, good 
yielders, and well suited to the Western territory. 
Irish Cobbler. Excellent for light soils. White, and 
of medium size, roundish in shape. The quality is 
excellent, especially for baking. 
Early Ohio. A week to ten days earlier than the 
Early Rose, and a better yielder. Pink skin, white 
flesh, fine grained, excellent keeper. See Colored 
Price Sheet for Current Prices.
