gioffman’s Winter Barley 
HAVE YOU EVER GROWN WINTER BARLEY? 
IT’S PROVING A MIGHTY PROFITABLE CROP 
And with the apparent shortage in the corn crop in many sections, barley 
may prove still more profitable for sowing this fall. Yields have been won¬ 
derful. ... In best years 60 to 72 bushels per acre. ... In poor years up 
to 38 to 42 bushels. Many authorities claim barley almost the equal of corn 
in feeding value. The new barley crop will be ready early next June. It’s a 
long time from then until next year’s corn crop will be made. And if corn 
cribs are not going to be well-filled this fall, barley might prove a splendid 
crop to put in this fall. Here is fine seed barley for you! 
CERTIFIED SEED BARLEY

again treated before you will get it. So that you may receive the very choicest 
quality Winter Barley seed available.

weeks earlier. Handle the same as wheat.
