STANDARD SEED GRAINS 
Spring Wheat 
We want to especially call your atten¬ 
tion to the fact that the Spring Wheat 
varieties offered below are something 
superior to the ordinary standard varie¬ 
ties commonly offered. 
Marquis— Our Marquis seed offered is 
grown from a pure, high yielding, early 
maturing strain. Its chief character¬ 
istics are that it is beardless, good 
straw, fine milling qualities and high¬ 
est yielding and earlier maturing than 
ordinary Marquis. 
A Field of Our Victory Oats 
Oats 
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. We are offering an extremely fan¬ 
cy lot of Victory Oats this season. See back 
cover. 
Swedish Select —These originated in Sweden and 
for j^ears 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. 
Gopher —An early maturing Oat with a good stiff 
straw and highly recommended for Montana. It 
it a good yielder and forms a compact head of 
grain. 
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 Federation 
seed for several years and was formerly a pro¬ 
ducer of Club Wheat, says that it averages ten 
days earlier than Club Wheat, yields as heavily 
and requires less water. 
Soft Spring Wheat —Strong straw and heavy yield- 
in gvariety. 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. We have an excep¬ 
tional lot of plump seed with high purity and 
germination.

The demand for good seeds is insistent. The Department of Agriculture, at Washington, and State 
Experiment Stations, are of constant benefit to farmers. Watch them—they will advise well. They con¬ 
sistently advocate good seeds of known origin. Our business is to supply the best. WE DO. The ac¬ 
cumulated endeavor of years, as represented in our business, is at your service. Thousands of cus¬
