Seed Grains 
Wheat 
On irrigated lands, sow 60 to 75 pounds per acre; on dry 
land, 40 to 50 pounds. 
MARQUIS—It is a very early, beardless, hard, red spring 
wheat, very productive. It has higher milling and baking 
qualities than most varieties of spring wheat known to- 
day and will almost always grade No. 1. Besides being 
about ten days earlier than most spring wheats it gener- 
ally outyields them and has been known to produce 46, 
to 60 bushels per acre. As it is short stiff strawed, it is 
not likely to lodge and stands up well under irrigated 
conditions. The grain is plump and of a dark red 
appearance. 
THATCHER—A new beardless, hard red spring wheat, de- 
veloped in Minnesota. Rust-resistant and equal in milling 
and baking qualities to Marquis. 
KOMAR—A high yielding, bearded, hard red spring wheat, 
adapted to dryland and irrigated conditions. 
DURUM—Strictly a dryland wheat. It is vigorous and 
hardy, fine for feeding purposes, but not so popular for 
milling. 
TURKEY RED—A hard, bearded winter wheat. 
lific and stands cold and drought well.
