1 935 SPRING AND FALL THE HOUSE OF GURNEY, INC. YANKTON, SOUTH DAKOTA 
PEDIGREED STOCK OF SEED GRAIN 
D ID you drive through North Dakota, South Dakota, or Nebraska last 
summer and see field after field yellow with mustard ? Most of this seed 
was trucked in or shipped in to elevators — sold and planted without 
cleaning. It will take years to get these fields cleaned up again. 
Can you afford to plant this kind of seed when you can buy clean grain 
for planting at our low prices? 
BARLEY 
Velvet Barley 
A High Quality Malting Barley 
Also known as Minnesota No. 447. This 
plump, six rowed barley, introduced by the 
Minnesota Experiment Station, was first dis¬ 
tributed in 1926. It is a heavy yielder, it has 
very stiff straw, and is much more disease 
resistant than other varieties. 
The great advantage of this superb new 
barley over other sorts is its freedom from 
the troublesome awns, hence the name, 
Velvet Barley. However, none of the yield was 
sacrificed in breeding this smoothness of awns. 
48 lbs., $1.55; 96 lbs., $2.95; 480 lbs., $14.25; 
50 bu., $70.00. 
Wisconsin Pedigree No. 6 
A Good Malting Barley 
(2 to 2 y 2 bu. sow one acre) 48 lb. in one bushel. 
To Prof. Moore, the agronomist of the Wisconsin 
Experiment Station belongs the credit for having 
originated this splendid barley. 
The average yield of it in Wisconsin for five 
years has been 36 y 2 bushels per acre, and the 
average yield of common varieties was 20 bushels 
during the same time. Pedigreed Barley grows 
taller than any other six rowed sort and has 
very thin straw which stands up better than 
that of Oderbrucker. 48 lbs., $1.45; 96 lbs., 
$2.80; 480 lbs., $13.75; 50 bu., $67.50. 
Blue Hulless Barley 
Not a Malting Barley 
Has no hulls. Earliest and best hog feed 
grown. Yields immense crops that thresh out 
from the hull just as wheat does, better and 
richer for feeding purposes than any other 
barley. Plant for earliest feed. 48 lbs., $1.60; 
96 lbs., $3.00; 480 lbs., $14.75; 50 bu., $72.50. 
WHEAT 
Burbank Quality Wheat 
Burbank Quality Wheat —A new spring wheat 
originated and introduced by Luther Burbank, 
the plant wizard. It has withstood the ravages 
of the Black Rust better than most varieties, 
makes remarkable yields of high quality wheat. 
Sample of this was submitted by us to the 
Terminal Markets and they pronounced it a good 
bread-making wheat that would sell at practical¬ 
ly the same price as the Marquis and other spring 
wheats. Will outyield all others. 1 bu., $1.60; 
2 bu., $3.10; 5 bu., $7.50; 10 bu., $14.75; 50 bu., 
$72.50. 
Ceres Wheat 
Originated by the North Dakota Experiment 
Station, a cross of Marquis and Kota — outyields 
either Kota or Marquis. Is highly resistant to 
stem rust and will replace most other varieties 
in the spring wheat belt. Our stock of this new 
wheat was grown in North Dakota. Thoroughly 
recleaned and is fancy seed stock in every re¬ 
spect. 1 bu., $1.60; 2 bu., $3.10; 5 bu., $7.50; 
10 bu., $14.75; 50 bu., $72.50. 
Marquis Wheat 
The Marquis is an early variety. It is three 
or four days earlier than most of the other Fife 
varieties. Because or its earliness it escapes the 
drought of dry years, the rust and fall rains of 
wet seasons, and also the early fall frosts. These 
are the characteristics which have made it 
specially valuable. 
Marquis Wheat—1 bu., $1.60; 2 bu., $3.00; 
5 bu., $7.35; 10 bu., $14.50; 50 bu., $70.00. 
DWARF BROOM CORN 
The Dwarf Broom Corn stands up better 
than the taller varieties, is practically free from 
crooked brush. The fiber is long and fine and 
commands always the highest market price. 1 
lb., 25c; 5 lbs., 75c; 10 lbs., $1.30; 25 lbs., $2.85; 
50 lbs., $5.10; 100 lbs., $9.75. 
SEED OATS 
Iogold Oats 
Iogold, a new variety of oats offered for dis¬ 
tribution by the Farm Crops Section of the 
Iowa Agricultural Experiment Station in 1927, 
has three distinct qualities which recommend it 
to Iowa farmers. Its advantages are stiffness 
of straw, high yield of grain and resistance to 
stem rust. 
The seed of Iogold Oats is still scarce and will 
cost a little more than*other varieties but it is 
worth it. Why not be the first in your neighbor¬ 
hood to raise this new oat? 1 bu., 95c; 3 bu., 
$2.70; 10 bu., $8.75; 50 bu., $42.50. 
Gopher Oats 
One of the earliest maturing, open-panicled 
with white grain, stiff strawed, and especially 
recommended for southern Minnesota. In the 
past few years its yielding ability has been out¬ 
standing in practically every territory that has 
used it. It is especially high yielding on peat 
lands. 
Gopher oats were originated for the purpose 
of obtaining a high yielding variety with a stiff 
straw. 1 bu., 95c; 3 bu., $2.70; 10 bu., $8.75; 
50 bu., $42.50. 
Iowar Oats 
It is of the Kherson type but newer than 
Iowa 103 or Iowa 105; Iowar is a fine white color, 
straws quite short and ripens extremely early. 
It has given heavy yields in the large number of 
tests made throughout Iowa and Wisconsin. The 
yield is invariably very satisfactory. I recom¬ 
mend this variety very highly. 1 bu., 95c; 3 bu., 
$2.70; 10 bu., $8.75; 50 bu., $42.50. 
Kherson Oats 
Our seed from this variety is secured from seed 
of the original Taylor importation, and is ab¬ 
solutely pure Kherson Oats. It is a smaller oat 
than most, and takes at least one peck less per 
acre for sowing. This oat should be largely 
planted as the difference of 10 to 15 days in 
earliness of maturity will escape the rust period; 
save that much risk of winds, hail and bugs. 
It also lengthens the harvest season, allowing 
you to get along with less high-priced help. 1 bu., 
95c; 3 bu., $2.70; 10 bu., $8.75; 50 bu., $42.50. 
Don Gurney in a Field of Grohoma 
Regenerated 
Swedish Select Oats 
In the best season the new Regenerated Swedish 
Select Oats have made some wonderful yields in 
the North. They are certainly the leading late 
oats at the present time and it is probable they 
will continue to be so. It is not unusual to see 
fields growing 100 bushels per acre and weighing 
as high as 38 lbs. per measured bushel. Our stock 
of this oat is strictly pure and at the price you 
should sow a good field. 1 bu., $1.00; 3 bu., 
$2.85; 10 bu., $9.00; 50 bu., $44.00. 
FLAX 
Bison Wilt Resistant —One of the most 
recent introductions of the North Dakota 
Experiment Station. It is famous for its almost.- 
complete resistance to wilt, and coupled with 
this is its vigor and heavy yield. Bison Wilt 
Resistant Flax is a large seeded variety, the 
seed being much larger than any other sort, and 
is replacing other varieties now being grown. 
56 lbs., $2.95; 112 lbs., $5.80; 560 lbs., $28.50; 
50 bu., $140.00. 
Argentine Flax— This, is an importation from 
Argentina, grown for the last several years in 
the Northwest where it is apparently making a 
very high yield of a very large flax berry; nearly 
a half larger than other varieties. This flax com¬ 
mands about five cents per bushel by crushers . 
over other varieties. 56 lbs., $2.95; 112 lbs., 
$5.80; 560 lbs., $28.50; 50 bu., $140.00. 
Buda Flax 
This new, small seeded wilt resistant flax will 
replace other small seeded varieties on account 
of its high yields, wilt and drought resistance, and 
its tall, strong straw. 56 lbs., $2.95; 112 lbs., 
$5.80; 560 lbs., $28.50; 50 bu., $140.00. 
SPELTZ, OR EMMER 
It makes a good crop with almost any con¬ 
dition of soil and climate. It is neither wheat, 
rye nor barley, and yet it appears to be a combi¬ 
nation of these. It is more like wheat than any 
of the others mentioned. All kinds of animals 
seem to thrive on it. It is a heavy yielder. Will 
grow well and produce enormous crops on land 
where wheat will not grow. 50 lbs., $1.65; 100 
lbs., $3.00; 500 lbs., $14.50; 1000 lbs., $28.50. 
WINTER OR FALL RYE 
This valuable forage plant produces pasture 
from early in the spring until late in the fall if 
sown in the spring. It seldom produces any head 
and gives you good pasture all summer. It is 
also an excellent fertilizer, plowing it under in 
mid-summer. 14 lbs., 60c; 28 lbs., 90c; t 56 lbs., 
$1.40; 112 lbs., $2.75; 560 lbs., $13.50. ' 
DWARF ESSEX RAPE 
I want to impress it on you, that the Dwarf 
Essex Rape will grow and thrive, and be pro¬ 
fitable in many places on your farm. In the 
spring when you are sowing small grains, sow 
it at the rate of 4 pounds per acre with your 
gfain. This will furnish valuable pasture after 
harvest. Plant it with fall rye at the rate of 
about three pounds to the acre in the months 
of April or May, and it will make you a good 
pasture with the rye in summer. Plant it by it¬ 
self at the rate of 5 lbs. per acre and see the im¬ 
mense yield of forage it will produce. Sow it at 
the rate of 3 lbs. per acre with your cultivationof 
corn. This is undoubtedly the most profitable 
place to sow rape seed. If you are hogging the 
corn down, the hogs will clean the rape as well 
as the corn. Dwarf Essex Rape is the only va¬ 
riety that is valuable. 1 lb., 20c; 5 lbs., 60c; 
10 ibs., $1.00; 25 lbs., $2.15; 50 lbs., $3.70; 
100 lbs., $6.75; 500 lbs., $33.00.
