The Sturdy, Robust, Heavy 
Yielding, Biggest Oat—“Corriente” 
Novelty——“Corriente” Oats—A Big White Oat —Big 
“Corriente” Oats do not lodge under excels 
moisture conditions and can withstand drought 
and heat better than other types. Sow early 
for best results. They grow 3 to 4 feet high and 
have large heads frequently containing 75 to 110 
kernels, all well filled. The large plump grains 
are nearly twice the size of Victory, Swedish 
Select or any of the standard varieties now 
grown. They are a Burbank production selected 
and improved from stock originally brought from 
Peru to America. 
Victory—This variety is very highly recommended 
by the Montana Experiment Station because of 
its consistent high yield performance on both dry 
and irrigated land. It is the best dual adapted 
Oat, in respect to either dry or irrigated condi¬ 
tions, known. 
Swedish Select —These originated in Sweden and 
for years have been one of the dependable stand¬ 
ard varieties over the entire Northwest. Our 
stocks are selected from the best and purest ob¬ 
tainable, are of exceptional quality, thoroughly 
recleaned and graded. 
Montana White —A large, plump, early maturing, 
very good yielding, White Oats of splendid ap¬ 
pearance and grade. A sample will convince 
you of their quality. 
Markton—The dry land farmer’s friend. This Oat 
is a distinct improvement on the old 60-day Oat 
of a dozen years ago, being heavier, a better 
yielder and producing more straw. First time 
for years we have a good tonnage to offer of 
Markton Oats weighing 43 lbs. per bushel. They 
were grown from registered stock, too. 
Gopher—The wonder Oat. Sounds like a fish story 
when we say our grower, Mr. Huhnerkoch, pro¬ 
duced one thousand twenty-three bushels weigh¬ 
ing 43 lbs. per bushel on eleven acres or 93 
bushels per acre on good Summer fallowed bot¬ 
tom land without irrigation. It makes a very 
stiff straw 2y 2 to 3 feet and a good, compact 
head of heavy grain. Very early and at the 
same time very heavy yielding. A product of 
the Minnesota Experiment Station. 
PREPARE NOW FOR SPRING 
The demand for good seeds is insistent. The De¬ 
partment of Agriculture, Washington, and State 
Experiment Stations, are of constant benefit to 
farmers. Watch them—they will advise well. They 
consistently advocate good seeds of known origin. 
Our business is to supply the best. WE DO. The 
accumulated endeavor of years, as represented in 
our business, is at your service. Thousands of 
customers year in nud year out can testify to our 
high grade seeds and to our service. 
Spring Wheat 
We want to especially call your attention to 
the fact that the Spring Wheat varieties offered 
below are something superior to the ordinary 
standard varieties commonly offered. 
Marquis— Our Marquis seed offered is grown from 
the pure 10B strain which has proven itself to 
be the highest yielding, earliest maturing strain 
of Marquis for Montana Hard Spring Wheat sec¬ 
tions. Chief characteristics are that it is beard¬ 
less, good straw, fine milling qualities and high¬ 
est yielding and earlier maturing than ordinary 
Marquis. Our seed was grown from pedigreed 
stock. 
Federation—In sections of the Northwest where 
White Spring Wheat is used we strongly recom¬ 
mend Federation. It has a medium short strong 
straw, is a good stooler and beardless. H. L. 
Cram, our grower, who has produced Federa¬ 
tion seed for several years and was formerly 
a producer of Club Wheat, says that it averages 
ten days earlier than Club Wheat, yields as heav¬ 
ily and requires less water. 
Soft Spring Wheat —Strong straw and heavy yield¬ 
ing variety, particularly well adapted to most of 
the irrigated districts of the Northwest. Abso¬ 
lutely pure Soft Spring is practically impossible 
to obtain but our stock has an exceptionally 
low percentage of other wheat. 
Dioklow Wheat —The heaviest yielding variety of 
all Soft Spring Wheats under irrigation. It is 
a selection by Richard Low from other Club 
Wheat varieties in Utah. Because of its quality 
and yields it attracted much attention and there 
was soon a large demand for Dick Low’s Wheat. 
Our seed stock- was grown in the Helena Valley 
and yielded nearly 70 bushels per acre. 
Winter Wheat 
Before seeding time write us for recommenda¬ 
tions on new adapted varieties, treatment recom¬ 
mendations, and prices. 
Prevent Disease Losses by Using Du Bay 
USE THE EASY CERESAN DUST TREATMENT 
I 
Disinfection of Seeds — Before planting, to 
combat many destructive seed-borne fungi 
and protect against certain harmful soil- 
borne organisms, has become the standard 
practice of progressive farmers throughout 
the country. 
The Grain Farmer, however, has in the past 
been handicapped in his efforts to control 
many of the important grain diseases be¬ 
cause the treatments available to him have 
been far from adequate for the purpose. 
For Wheat —Ceresan is very effective in the 
control of bunt of stinking smut and is 
recommended for the control of seed-borne 
flag smut. Ceresan is a very fine, gray 
dust, the chemical constituents of which 
do not cause corrosion of metals. There¬ 
fore Ceresan should not clog the drill nor 
cause injury to its metal parts as is the 
tendency of some dust disinfectants. 
On Oats —Excellent control of loose and cov¬ 
ered smuts may generally be obtained by- 
seed treatment with Ceresan. Ceresan is 
much easier to apply than the old liquid 7 
treatments and has no injurious effect. I
