FIELD SEEDS 
Seed Wheat 
Marqufs Wheat is the standard, hard, red, spring wheat 
for irrigated sections of the West. It is early maturing 
and high yielding. Is beardless, short, stiffstrawed. We 
will be able to supply both registered and non-registered 
seed. 
Komar Wheat is the name given to a bearded hard Eed 
Spring wheat, produced by crossing Kota and Marquis 
at the North Dakota Experiment Station. After experi¬ 
mental trials at the Fort Collins and Fort Lewis stations 
under irrigation and at the U. S. Dryland Station near 
Akron, this variety has been released as standard for 
Colorado on both irrigated and non-irrigated land. 
Defiance Wheat is a late maturing, soft, white wheat. It 
gives excellent yields when sown under irrigation. 
Macaroni or Durum Wheat. This variety grows very strong 
and is usually a heavy yielder. It is grown where other 
varieties do not mature or thrive. The straw makes 
excellent fodder. Has a very hard kernel and is known 
as a glue wheat, and is bearded. 
Seed Rye 
Spring Rye is an excellent soiler and can be produced on 
poor, worn out land under dry conditions where other 
grains would fail. It is useful as a cleaning crop for the 
purpose of eradicating wild oats. Makes early pasture 
and may be cut and cured for hay. When sown with 
vetch its value for pasture and hay is greatly enhanced.

Winter or Fall Rye serves a very useful purpose for pas¬ 
ture and hay. May be sown in the spring and summer 
as well as in the fall. When Winter Eye is sown after 
frost it goes into the following season before maturing, 
thus making it a biennial. Priced on Quantity Field 
Seed List. 
Speltz or Spring Emmer resembles barley and wheat. Is 
of rapid growth and ripens early. Withstands more 
drought and unfavorable soil and weather conditions 
than most grains. It is a very efficient and desirable 
feed. Priced on Quantity Field Seed List. 
Thatcher Wheat. A new beardless, hard red spring wheat 
that yields at the Fort Collins Station about the same 
as Komar. It is adapted to irrigated conditions only 
and may replace Komar in this area. 
Turkey Red Winter Wheat. A standard red bearded 
wheat with a strong straw. It is early ripening. Kernels 
are large, red, and hard. It is in good demand by millers. 
Prices on Seed Wheat will be given on our Special Field 
Seed Price List. 
Seed Barley 
Club Mariout Barley. A six-row, rough awned, hulled, 
early barley; particularly adapted to eastern Colorado 
non-irrigated plains section. Will yield one third more 
than Trebi in its region of adaptation, and 70 per cent 
of Trebi under irrigation. Could be used to advantage 
on irrigated land with early water where only one irri¬ 
gation is available. 
Seed Oats 
Brunker Oats are well adapted to dry land, being early 
maturing, smut and drought resisting. They are a red 
oat and were developed by the Akron Experiment Sta¬ 
tion. Prices on registered and non-registered seed will 
be given on our Special Field Seed Price List. 
Colorado No. 37 Oats. This oat has been found superior 
to all other varieties of oats for irrigated areas of Colo¬ 
rado. It is a mid-season white oat. It is characterized 
by its high yield; its straw and awnless kernels. Prices 
on registered and non-registered seed will be given in 
our Special Quantity Field Seed List. 
Victory Oats, a mid-season white oat, adapted to the irri¬ 
gated lands of northern Colorado. Prices on registered 
and non-registered seed will be given on our Special Field 
Seed Price List. 
Bliss Side Oats is a white side oat adapted to irrigated 
land. This variety is noted for its abundant yield of 
oat hay in the mountain areas. Prices on registered and 
non-registered seed will be given on our Special Field 
Seed Price List. 
Markton Oats are especially well adapted to the warmer 
irrigated sections of Colorado; namely, the lower Arkan¬ 
sas Valley and the lower Grand Valley. This is a mid- 
season oat, highly resistant to smut. Prices will be given 
on our Special Quantity Field Seed List. 
Flynn. A six-row, smooth awned barley yielding about 
the same as Club Mariout. The smooth awned or thinner 
hull has increased its popularity in the plains area and 
in other non-irrigated sections of the state. 
Trebi. Six-row, bearded, hulled barley with large, bluish 
kernels, and comparatively weak straw. The standard 
for irrigated sections of the state. 
Colsess. A hooded or beardless six-row, hulled barley with 
very stiff straw. Adapted to the mountain irrigated 
areas and cooler sections of the state. It is popular 
when used as a nurse crop. 
Wisconsin No. 38. A smooth awned six-row barley adapted 
for malting purposes. 
Lico. A new smooth awned, six-row barley, with stiff 
straw originated by a cross at the Colorado Experiment 
Station; not registered at the present time but recom¬ 
mended for further trial in irrigated sections of the 
state. 
Prices on registered and non-registered Seed Barley will 
be given on our Special Field Seed Price List.
