Rev. 0 . Sober, Ohio. 
The Martin Amber wheat was the talk of the 
CpU-nty. I had it sown by the big State road. 
Many people got over to see it. 
K. G. Crist, lad. 
1 sowed i bushel of Martin Amber wheat on 
3 50 rods, about j] of an acre, and harvested over 
20 bushels of eieau wheat. I can give the 
wheat a strong recommendation as the Ij acre 
yielded full as much as any acre adjoining with 
tliteo times as much seed and treated precisely 
the same in other respects. 
Geo. W. Sin* lee, Pa. 
I sowed SO acres of wheat last fall, 415 
Uf" Fultz and 5 of Martin Amber. Wheat 
bo a failure in tins section. It froze out last 
February. Will not get 200 bushels from j 
the whole. I hope to get 15 bushels to the j 
ajere of Martin Amber. There will be more 
Civile 5 acres of this than on the 45 acres 
Cd. Fultz. If the season had been favorable 
it would have made 40 bushels to the acre 
by tiie appearance of spots not killed. 
J. IS. RHOADS, Ohio. 
The Martin Amber wheat has stood the past 
hard winter where the Fultz has entirely failed. 
A. I. Montgomery, pa. 
The Martin Amber wheat, although sowed 
after corn, produced well, perhaps 'J A per cent, 
better than our best red wheat, drilled at the 
rate of 1bushels per acre, and although not 
threshed will make fr in 25 to 30 bushels per 
acre. 1 am so far well pleased with the va¬ 
riety. Wm. (J. Reeve, N. I. 
Not many times have I ever writtm back to 
tell of success in the trial of new seeds that I 
have ordered. The Martin Amber wheat 
bought fast fad. of thee is the only dealings 1 
ha ve had from, thy house, and I am so agree¬ 
ably surprised to find it just as represented 
M the catalogue that 1 should send some words 
,Of greeting. It was sowed rather late. 1 saw 
nothing I thought very extraordinary about 
it until this spring, when it commenced spread¬ 
ing over the. ground., and. shot up from 10 to 
!fi stalks from each grain, and it. yielded .10 
limes the amount of seed sown. 1 will exhibit 
some of it.'ahgur countu fair this fall. 
E. II. TUU BLOOD, Indiana . 
I growed from the pound of seed T got of you 
of the Martin Amber wheat 2 bushels and one 
peck of good wheat. I think it turned out very 
well. Have not heard of anything like so large 
a yield in this neighborhood. I don’t think it 
can be beat. Geo. Haubert, Pa. 
I am very much pleased with the Martin Am- 
her wheat. The berry is beautiful. It stood 
the heavy rains the best of any on my farm. 
G. A. Lovkjoy, Mich. 
I am very much pleased with (lie Martin 
Amber wheat. X think it is the be»st I ever 
R aw. John A. Layton, N. C. 
I received more wheat from von than I ex¬ 
pected, S’> I gave my father a pound. 1 sowed 
the balance at the rate of 3 pecks per acre. I 
then set the drill for 6£ peeks of Fultz almm 
side. The Martin Amber stood as thick as i he 
Fultz. I have not' threshed vet. but am well 
pleased with it. 
Leandkh IT. Small, Pi. 
As compared with our oid variety, the Claw- 
sou. ivinch has thus far given vis better satis¬ 
faction than any oilier variety we have e ,'peri- 
menled with, the Martin. Amber is far in ad¬ 
vance in (he weight of straw, size and length 
of head, number of 'kernels in a head ansi 
particularly in the number of heads from a 
stool The Clawson was sowed at 'least a 
■month cartier the preceding f it/.

M v experience with the Martin A mber wheat 
convinces me that it is a wonderful wheat and 
fa- superior to any other kind. X s wed' 1 of a 
bushel on thin gravel ground and raised 
bushels. It did not tangle down like mv other 
v heat. It is aii that is claimed for it. 
•J E Snyder, Pa. 
The Martin Amber wheat did the best of 
three kinds which I sowed, and judge itof bet¬ 
ter quality than Claws ui.

I sowed 1 pound of Martin Amber when, 
bmade-st on a piece of corn ground, a \erv 
poor, gravelly soil, but in spite of bad cam the 
wheat grew finely. When it headed om eve v 
person who saw it said, “ It has the finest he Ms 
they ever saw.” Some of the heads had iw 
i much as 7 a or SO grains each. It made at
