Field Seeds 
KANOTA RED OATS —Asked why he thought Kanota oats 
were better, one of our California customers answered: 
“They mature 10 to 14 days earlier than other Red Oats 
planted under similar conditions, produce taller, finer 
straw, finer leaves and heavier heads, show a higher test 
weight per bushel. The kernel is heavier in proportion to 
the size of the grain than other oats and Kanotas resist 
lodging to a remarkable degree.” A recent test at Davis, 
California, on the University Farms, Kanota Oats yielded 
85.2 bushels per acre against 52.6 for California Red Oats.

Oats 
WHITE SEED OATS —Our stocks are all double re-cleaned. Light 
oats and chaff completely taken out. We can supply you with 
SHADELAND, Eclipse; SHADELAND, Climax; COMMON 
WHITE. Write for prices. 
WINTER GRAY OATS —Recommended for fall sowing. Winter Gray 
Oats will withstand hard winters better than either white or 
Kanota Reds. Heavy producers, sweet and nutritious. Can 
be planted in the Spring in the Coastal sections but not recom¬ 
mended for spring planting, inland. Write for prices. 
IMPORTANT—Please Read. Clover, grass and field seeds are 
subject to market changes, therefore we cannot print prices good for 
any length of time. When you are ready to buy, drop us a line 
stating what you are interested in and how much you will want, and 
we will quote, submitting samples at the same time. We quote only 
on fancy stock seed. Our prices will be right. 
SUCCESS BEARDLESS BARLEY— This variety 
brought out and successfully featured by 
Washington State College, has proved 
more than was anticipated in the Rogue 
River Valley. A heavy yielder that will 
not lodge and almost devoid of beards. 
Write for prices. 
COMMON BEARDLESS BARLEY— While a 
small percentage of beards will be found 
in this sort, we believe our stock is as free 
of beards as is possible to secure. Write 
for prices. 
BEARDED BARLEY —Grown usually for the 
grain. Hardy and a heavy yielder. Our 
stock of this type is always of highest 
grade. Write for prices. 
Barley 
HANNCHEN BARLEY-*-A heavy yielding, me¬ 
dium early, two-row barley, giving the 
best average yields west of the Cascades. 
Grains are very plump, thin, hulled, mak¬ 
ing it the best quality of grain in the bar¬ 
ley line. Will weigh almost equal to wheat 
when sacked. The most readily marketed 
barley in the Northwest. Klamath county 
is gradually turning to Hannchen where 
many planters report weight yield per 
acre equal to wheat, with a better price 
return. Write for prices. 
Wheat 
FEDERATION —A variety of beardless wheat that is 
gradually taking the place of Club and Bluestem. 
Especially recommended for rich ground as it does 
not lodge badly. Can be sown in Fall or Spring, 
excellent for hay. Write for prices. 
BLUESTEM —Preferred by many for hay purposes. 
Bluestem has a soft straw, therefore makes a bet¬ 
ter hay, not so stiff. Lodges badly on heavy ground. 
Does best on higher, poorer soils. Very leafy and 
beardless. Write for prices. 
BIG BLUE CLUB —One of the club wheats, Big Blue Club 
outyields them all. It is adaptable for hay, being very 
leafy. The stem is strong enough to prevent lodging 
easily. Our seed came from a field that yielded 55 
bushels to the acre. Write for prices. 
Treat your wheat with Copper Carbonate—the modern method of 
preventing smut. See page 39. Poison, and cannot be mailed.
