FORREST’S HONEST SEEDS

SPRING WHEAT 
Saskatchewan Fife—We consider this the best variety for general use. Honest pkt. 5c, lb. 
15c, postpaid; by express or freight, bu. $2.25, 2% bu. bag $5.40. 
Speltz or Emmer Another valuable grain of recent introduction from Europe, and is now 
quite largely raised in some of the Western States, and is gaining a foothold in our home country. 
It has been grown for centuries in Russia, near the Caspian Sea^ a valuable substitute for oats and 
barley. It out-yields oats and barley for feed and is a sure cropper—does not crinkle down, shell, 
or waste. To sum it up, we advise farmers to grow some Speltz. We believe from the trials at 
home that they will be more than pleased with it and can sell their seed to their neighbors for a 
good price after they become acquainted with it. Honest pkt. 5c, oz. 10c, lb. 25c, 3 tbs. 60c, post¬ 
paid; by express or freight, bu. 40c, bu. $1.25, 2 l / 2 bu. bag $3.60. 
OATS 
It will pay you well to change your seed. Sow the improved varieties, and see what 
a difference it will make. It may cost you a little more, but when the harvest comes, 
you will be repaid a hundred fold. 
The seed oats we offer are the heaviest, plumpest, and finest seed oats that we have ever seen. 
They are grown expressly for seed from selected stock. 
We have a great many inquiries for seed oats, or what variety does the best for us. Now to be 
honest with you we have a selection of the Clydesale that we have selected for a good many years 
and we place these at the head of the list. They are heavier, more meat, and that is what we like 
in oats. Some of the new varieties, if measured by the bag as they come from the machine, will 
give a big yield, but they lack the weight or meat. Now, we tell you this as we believe it, and from 
our experience. We have other varieties, but we give these the preference, as we grow this variety 
for our own use, and know they will please you. Price, bu. $1.00, 10 bu. lots 90c per bushel. 
Silver Mine — One of the few new oats that have come to stay, and is making friends every 
year. Very productive, very early; long, stiff straw, and surely rust proof; on account of its soft 
nib, heavy meat, and thin hull, it is unsurpassed for feeding. Price, 1 lb. 15c, 3 lbs. 40c, postpaid; 
by express or freight, bu. $1.10, 10 bu. or more $1.00 per bu., bags free. 
Big-Four Oats — We also have a fine stock. You will make no mistake in trying one or both 
of the above varieties. Price same as Silver Mine. 
SORGHUM 
Early Amber—This variety is coming into general use for summer fodder for cattle in place of 
sowed corn, yielding two crops in one season. It is claimed to keep up the flow of milk, and cows 
like it better than any other feed. It is also easily cured, and makes excellent dry fodder. Three 
to four pounds are sufficient for an acre, in drills 30 inches apart between the rows, sowing the 
seed thick and shallow in the row. Per lb. 20c, postpaid; by express or freight, 100 lbs. $5.00. 
White Kaffir Corn — This variety will do well wherever Amber Cane will grow. It is used as 
a green fodder, and is eagerly eaten by cattle, hogs, etc. It is a great fattener. The average 
height of stalk is six feet. From fifty to sixty bushels seed to the acre have been harvested. 
Per lb. postpaid, 20c; by express or freight, 100 lbs. $5.00.
