FRENCH WHITE CHAFF 
MEDITERRANEAN. 
Bearded Wheat.—Imported from Arles, 
France. Acclimated four . years. This 
Wheat I consider the best Bed Wheat for 
general cultivation. It is the earliest, hard- 
U \ li\ /m/1 II I I!I flest, and most prolific Red Wheat that I 
know of, and has a very stiff straw, a large 
head, and the largest grain of any wheat 
in the country. As yet it has proved rust 
and weevil-proof, and yields from forty 
to fifty bushels per acre. 
Per peck , $2.00; per bushel, $7.50; 
Wholesale, or Club rales : 25 bushels, $175 ; 
50 bushels, $325.00 ; 100 bushels, $500.00. 
FRENCH RED CHAFF 
MEDITERRANEAN. 
From Aix, France. — Acclimated four 
years. This is also a very good early 
Wheat. It stands the Winter well, and is 
very prolific. The grain is a light red or 
amber; is of good size, and very plump. 
The head is the largest of any of the Beard¬ 
ed Wheats. The straw is strong and still’; 
not liable to lodge. It yields about forty 
to fifty bushels per acre on ordinary soil, 
and is free from rust and weevil. 
Per peck, $2.00; per bushel, $7.50. Whole¬ 
sale, or Club rates: 25 bushels, $175.00 ; 50

sia. Acclimated two years. An early and

est winter, and stools very heavily. The 
head is of a good size, the grain medium

both in straw and grain each year. I con¬ 
sider it a very good and hardy Wheat.

wheat is somewhat similar to the Lancaster Red 
Mediterranean, with a more perfect and fuller 
head, and ripens about the same time. It makes a 
still’ straw; stands the most rigorous winter, and is 
weevil and rust-proof.

quehanna river. The beau is a good size; the grain 
medium, and yields from thirty to thirty-five bush¬ 
els per acre. In this vicinity, tills variety proves ntJXGAKIAX RED J1ED1XER .

LANCASTER RED CHAFF. 
Bearded.—This Wheat was imported at the same time with the White Chaff Mediterra 
neau, and from near the same 
place. The only difference 
between the two Wheats is, 
that this Wheat has a dark 
red grain of large size; a 
straw slightly purple, and a 
red chaff. It has been yield¬ 
ing good crops every season ; 
is hardy and prolific, and will stand the hardest winter. It yields about thirty-five bushels 
per acre. 
Per peck, $1.50; per bushel, $3.00. Wholesale, and Club rates: 25 bushels, $112.50; 50 
bushels, $225.00 ; 100 bushels, $400.00. 
Bearded.—An early red Mediterranean Wheat. 
Head medium size; grain a light red, of 
good size. Pennsylvania 
farmers hold to it on account 
of its making a crop on all 
kinds of soil, especially in 
slate or gravelly land, and its 
making a part of a crop in all 
kinds of seasons. If the best 
ClflllMAN red. seed was taken every year for 
sowing, it could he improved so as to make a splendid Wheat. The yield, in this Valley, is 
from fifteen to thirty-five bushels per acre.
