OLDS’ SEED WHEAT 
Field of Wisconsin Progress Wheat. 
PROGRESS WHEAT (Wisconsin Pedigree No. 1611) 
Progress is by all odds the best variety of spring wheat for Wisconsin. The outstanding feature about it 
is that it does not rust. It is a bearded, hard red spring wheat, and is one of the highest yielders. It was 
developed at the Marshfield branch Experiment Station in 1915, a selection from Early Java. The specific ob¬ 
ject in view was to get a wheat that would have a strong resistance to rust and this strain is outstanding 
in that respect. Its reputation is now fully established. Get started with Progress this year.

lots of it. Note the following points: 
First. It is perfectly hardy and can be grown anywhere. 
Second. It yields more per acre than either oats or barley. 
Third. It is adapted to dry regions. Withstands drouth. 
Fourth. It stands up when oats and barley lodge.

or hogs, as the large hull gives it the lightness of oats, while the 
double kernel furnishes a rich meal much like ground rye feed.

per acre. It ripens about with oats.
