THATCHER WHEAT 
Beardless, Rust Resistant 
No Wheat in recent years has been acclaimed with 
so much enthusiasm as Thatcher. Its rust resistant 
qualities have proven it to be in a class by itself 
anywhere. Last year in competitive tests it out- 
yielded Marquis, Ceres, Burbank, and Durum va¬ 
rieties by as much as 50 per cent, and in the sections 
where rust damaged the Wheat Crop, Thatcher in a 
number of cases was the only Wheat which stood 
up under the ravages of rust and returned a good 
yield. Thatcher has a strong straw, slightly shorter 
than Marquis, and is a few days earlier maturing. 
Our stocks are genuine, so you can be assured when 
you place your order with us that you will get a 
proper start in this Wonder Wheat. 
26 
SPELTZ 
A grain that will do well on most any kind of 
soil, or climatic conditions. High in food value and 
an excellent feed for hogs, you will be able to raise 
this where wheat will faiL Give it a trial. 
BISON FLAX 
This is considered the outstanding flax on the 
market today because it is very wilt resistant, and 
is a heavy yielder. Plan now to put in a few acres. 
Do not wait till all other crops fail and it is too late. 
RED WING FLAX 
This variety was developed by the Minnesota Ex¬ 
perimental Station and like Bison Flax it is wilt 
and rust resistant, and has proven itself to be a 
good yielder all through the Northwest. Well worth 
a trial.
