'Sterling and Northland farm Seeds 
FLAX— 
Cont. 
Bison. A new large 
seeded Wilt Re¬ 
sistant Variety, 
developed by the 
North Dakota Ex¬ 
periment Station. 
This variety has 
proven more satis¬ 
factory than any 
other for growing 
particularly on 
older farms in 
Minnesota and Da¬ 
kota. Will bring a 
premium on the 
market on account 
of greater oil con¬ 
tent. 
OATS 
Anthony Oats. A midseason variety, which is a cross between 
White Russian and Victory Oats developed for resistance to 
stem rust, stiffness of straw and heav$ yield. Especially 
adapted to Northern half of Minnesota. 
Gopher Oats. An excellent high yielding oat, developed at the 
Minnesota Station. It is a plump, fairly heavy, early oat with 
a stiff straw. Very popular with growers where early matur¬ 
ity is desired. 
Iogold Oats. Iogold Oats were developed by the Iowa Station. 
Has three distinct qualities which recommend it: Stiffness of 
straw, resistance to rust and a high yield. It is an early yel¬ 
low oat, selected from Kherson and has done exceptionally 
well in Minnesota and Wisconsin. For growing on land where 
lodging and rust are to be expected. Iogold is recommended as 
superior to any of the tested varieties in ability to stand up 
and yield. 
Iowa No. 103 Oats or White Kherson. Originating from stock 
bred by the Iowa Agricultural College, the Iowa 103 Oat has 
proved its-r«,lue as a heavy-cropper. One hundred bushels per 
acre is not unusual. 
The grain is not large but is plump and heavy, with a thin 
hull. During growth the yield is deceiving but the results at 
threshing time prove its value as a prolific producer of grain 
high in food value. The straw is of excellent strength and on 
good soil stands up unusually well. 
Lincoln Oats. Reg. U. S. Pat. 
Office. We believe the “Lincoln” 
to be as fine an oat as is grown. 
Hundreds have written that, 
on account of its stiff straw, 
it stood up perfectly under 
weather that caused other va¬ 
rieties to lodge. It is the best 
and most economical oat for 
feeding on account of its thin 
hull, heavy meat and soft nib. 
The Lincoln Oat has a spran- 
gled tophead. 
Swedish Select Oats. Swedish 
Oats have given general satis¬ 
faction. 
Its habit of growth is so 
vigorous that on heavy soils 
it is likely to lodge, but for 
light soils it has no superior. 
Yellow r Kherson Oats. The 
original seed of this valuable 
oat was secured in Russia by 
the U. S. Dept, of Agriculture.
