BEARDLESS BARLEY. Is as easily grown and handled as 
either oats or wheat, and is a very desirable crop on

kind of soil. Beardless Barley is a splendid feed for all 
farm stock, and cattle, sheep, horses and hogs will thrive 
and fatten on it. Is one of the best grains for hay, espe¬ 
cially for horses, and is used extensively by the stock men 
in this district. There is a short crop this season and sug¬ 
gest that you order early. Recleaned, selected stock.

New Improved Ceresan 
New Improved CERESAN is un¬ 
usually effective for controlling bunt 
or stinking smut of wheat, loose and 
covered smuts of oats, covered smut 
and stripe of barley, and seedling 
blight caused by seed-borne scab. It 
is easily and quickly applied—re¬ 
quires only twenty revolutions in a 
rotary treater or three turnings with 
the shovel. It is non-injurious to the 
drill. Frequently improves the stand 
of grain and increases yields. Re¬ 
duces losses from smut and dockage.

Sorghums 
Sorghums are used both for fodder and pasture. As a 
fodder crop they yield a large quantity of high quality 
feed. As a pasture for sheep or hogs it is unequaled; when 
grazed down it will quickly start up again, thus affording 
a large amount of pasture during the summer months. 
Our seed is northern grown, selected stock.

Field Peas 
Peas are a very profitable crop, and will also build up 
the land by returning the much needed nitrogen to the 
soil. The clovers alone rank higher than peas in their en¬ 
riching properties. The vines can be used for hay, or the 
peas threshed and used for feed. Next to corn, peas have 
a higher feeding value than any other grain. Sow 100 to 
120 pounds per acre. All our peas are northern grown, 
selected stock. Please write for prices.

Seed Grain 
BEARDLESS SPRING RYE. Spring Rye is a very important 
and profitable crop. It is used for replacing winter grain 
that has failed, or planted as a grain crop. Beardless Spring 
Rye is very hardy, yields heavily, and is preferred for stock 
feeding, as the usual beards (about 1 inch long) mostly 
break off in handling. Please write for prices. 
ROSEN RYE. A fall and winter rye introduced from Russia. 
The grain is much larger than the common variety and the 
yield almost double. Also used extensively for spring 
planting for pasture. Please write for prices.

barley which is grown successfully in our western country, 
and is one of the best crops for green feed. Can be used
