Wisconsin State Pride No. 7 Certified 
This we consider our best oat. What we are offering' is our own 
growing. Certified by the Illinois Crop Improvement Association, 
showing a crop purity of 99.50, produces a goodly amount of straw 
which is a very stiff straw, ^tands up well and on account of the 
hard straw is affected less by chinch bugs than any oats we 'have. 
Medium early maturing, usually around the 15th of July. We 
boug;ht the seed of these oats four years ago direct from the Wis¬ 
consin Agricultural College. For best results sow 2 y 2 bushel per 
acre. Price, small lots, 80c per bu.; 25 to 10O bu., 75c per bu.; over 
100 bu., 72c per bu., all subject to market change. 
Columbia Certified Oats 
An oat which has proven to be one of the best. A very high yield¬ 
ing oat which stands up well, matures early, usually about July 8, 
ahead of the dry hot weather which so often ruins oats. We do not 
offer any late varieties of oats as we think you make a mistake 
by sowing late oats, especially where there is any danger of chinch 
bugs. They are also often ruined by hot weather, and if there are 
any chinch bugs (and looks as though there will be plenty in 1937) 
they go from wheat into these late oats and often ruin them be¬ 
fore they are ripe. Price, small lots, 80c per bu.; 25 to 100 bu., 75c 
per bu.; 10O bu. or over, 72c. Bags holding Jour bushel charged 
at 15c each. 
KANOTA. Very large grain oats. Best for mill or feed purposes, 
often weighing 40 lbs. per bushel. This oat, like Spring wheat 
in one respect, must be seeded early in order to produce a good 
crop. Produces medium heavy straw as well as high yielder of 
grain. Small lots, 75c; 25 to 100 bu., 70c. 
WISCONSIN 38 Barley 
(Smooth-awned Barley) 
Originated at the Wisconsin Agricultural College in 1916 and still 
the best barley yet produced. Produced by crossing black smooth 
awned barley from southern Russia with Oderbrucker. Results 
were a smooth awned barley and one which proved to be much 
higher yielding than the old Oderbrucker or Velvet Barley which 
is a good variety. 
We have grown both the Velvet and the Wiscon¬ 
sin Pedigree No. 38 ourselves and find this new va¬ 
riety very superior to any other. Has a very stiff 
straw, highest yielding, very resistant to disease 
and hot weather. 
Price, small lots, $1.75; 25 to 100 bu., $1.65. 
Wisconsin State Pride No. 7. 
Grown by Kelly Seed Co. on one of 
the Kelly Farms. 
RED CLOVER 
Smallest crop produced in thirty years. We have 
had some short crops but heretofore there was a 
BUCKWHEAT 
The last two years we have sold a lot of Buck¬ 
wheat for seed which has proven to be a good 
emergency crop. Buckwheat can be seeded the lat¬ 
est of any crop and still mature, making a crop in 
60 days. Chinch bugs will not bother buckwheat 
which is almost a sure crop. Yields 20 to 35 bu. per 
acre, usually sells for about the same price as wheat. 
Seed buckwheat is very low in price this year on ac¬ 
count of large crop being produced in our section. 
SILVER HULL. Best variety. Has a grain of silver 
color hull. Earliest and best producer. Price, 
small lots, $1.50; 25 to 100 bu., $1.40. 
JAPANESE. A larger berry, black color hull. Some 
late maturing. Price, small lots, $1.45; 25 to 100 
bushels, $1.40. 
MIXED BUCKWHEAT. Very hard to get pure seed 
but there is not much difference in the yield and 
price. Price, small lots, $1.35; 25 to 100 bushels, 
$1.30. 
carry over. This year there is absolutely no carry 
over and no stand to produce a stand for 1937. 
Clover seed may be much higher next year than 
this year. There were only a few sections which 
produced any clover seed in 1936. Most of the crop 
came from Idaho this year where they had a fair 
yield of good quality. We bought several cars of 
this fine Idaho seed and can still furnish you Idaho 
grown red clover.. There was a small section in 
Illinois where there was some very fine medium and 
Mammoth red clover produced. We bought about 
2,000 bushel of this and can furnish you Illinois 
grown seed which is good color, free of weeds, in 
fact some of the best seed we have ever seen pro¬ 
duced in Illinois. For best results sow 6 to 8 
pounds per acre. Be sure to inoculate with Kelly’s 
inoculators. For price see price list. 
Medium Red Clover 
GRADES OF SEED 
In cleaning seed, we get 6 grades but sell only 
three of these which are as follows— 
KELLY’S BEST, is the best grade of seed, test¬ 
ing 99.40 or better pure, no noxious weeds, all 
large plump grains, a grade of seed considerably 
above the average. For price, see page 35. 
FULL VALUE grade is a good grade of seed, 
testing 99.00% or better pure, not as large grains 
or as plump, but more seeds to the pound. No 
noxious tag. 
FAIR grade. This is a good grade of seed for 
the price. Smaller grains and possibly some 
brown seed but very few dead grains as our 
gravity mill removes most all of these seeds. 
Will comply with your state seed law. Will 
test 96 or better.
