SALZER’S WHITE BONANZA 
White Bonanza is a heavy midseason 
variety, extremely productive, with strong', 
stiff straw, bearing long heads filled with 
good-weight grain. It has demonstrated its 
ability to produce fine crops on sandy land 
and on the fertile prairie or clay loam soils. 
A dependable white oat that ripens in about 
ninety days. This variety is hardy, having 
been grown successfully in Canada, in sec¬ 
tions about 1,000 miles northwest of La 
Crosse. “Bonanza” is our own Registered 
Trade Mark. 
If your own oats are badly stained, run 
out, or light weight, you cannot afford to 
sow them when you can get Salzer’s White 
Bonanza,—clean, bright, heavy seed oats.

WHITE CROSS OR WISCONSIN PEDIGREE No. 19—This 
wonderful early white oat, in fact the earliest of all oats, was awarded 
first premium at the Wisconsin State Fair. 
Prof. B. D. Leith, Associate Agronomist at the Wisconsin College of 
Agriculture, bred this new oat after years of work. The object was to 
produce a high yielding early white oat, with a taller straw and a larger 
kernel than is usually found in early oats. The large kernel and white 
color make it attractive, and the tall straw is particularly desirable in 
localities where the soil is light. Has a branching habit and is a good 
rust-resister. It has a tendency to lodge on rich soils, but is especially 
well adapted to sandy soils. 4625 —See prtces above. 
STATE’S PRIDE OR WISCONSIN PEDIGREE No. 7— 
Earliest yellow oat. Prof. B. D. Leith, University of Wisconsin, points out 
that in spite of unfavorable weather. State’s Pride yielded 75.7 bushels per 
acre. Earliest of all yellow oats and best because it is an excellent nurse 
crop and escapes rust, because of its earliness. Does not lodge easily, but 
fills out the kernels if it does, making it especially desirable for rich 
soils. Has a very short, stiff straw. It is a yellow oat, bright, shining, 
thin hulled, meaty and is about the best oat. 4623 —See prices above. 
WISCONSIN PEDIGREE No. 1 - Wisconsin Wonder. This fine 
white variety originated at the Wisconsin Experimental Station, and is 
one of the most sought after of all oats. It stands up better than any 
other oat, on rich river bottom land where other varieties usually lodge. 
Its coarse, stiff straw permits it to stand up well on rich manured land. 
Especially recommended for following cultivated crops. The kernels 
are white, rather long, with a medium hull. Heavy yielder. Early. 
4620 —See prices above. 
SALZER’S WHITE KHERSON — down 103 )—a grand oat*which 
has twice carried off sweepstakes at the International Dry Farming Con¬ 
gress. An early variety; splendid nurse crop; permits early harvesting 
and late sowing of other crops. Kernels are slender, plump, white, and 
thin-hulled. Heavy yielder. 4622 —See prices above. 
60-DAY, JULY OR KHERSON— it is a small, yellowish oat 
with a very thin hull and practically all meat, and with short, stiff straw. 
Does not lodge easily. Sixty Day Oats are extremely early and are 
especially fine in a dry season. They usually yield 70 to 80 bushels per 
acre, at least. It adapts itself readily to the different soils. Can be har¬ 
vested with your barley. Mature in about 80 days, rather than 60 as the 
name would indicate. 46 I 6 —See prices above. 
SWEDISH SELECT OR WIS. PEDIGREE No. 5— A splendid 
late white oat for upland soils and poor land. The kernel is large and 
plump. Straw grows tall and rank and the panicles are large and well 
filled. It is a late maturing variety. Rust resistant and not easily 
susceptible to smut. Adapted to the lighter soils which are less liable 
to cause lodging. 4621 —See prices above.

FIELD PEAS-™^ 
Plowed under as a fertilizer. Field Peas rank next to Red Clover. They 
can be grown alone for fodder purposes and green manure, but for a 
dairy feed it is profitable to mix them with oats, rye or barley, and to 
cut for hay when the oats are heading out. Hay is of the finest quality, 
and cattle, horses and sheep thrive on it. Can be sown with oats at the 
rate of 114 bushels of peas and 2 bushels of oats for a double crop and 
threshing at one time and separating with a cleaner. 60 lbs. in one 
bushel. Drill the peas in 4 inches deep, as early as the ground can be 
worked, and then, 2 weeks later, drill in the oats crosswise.
