SOY BEANS 
— FOR DEFENSE - 
Our Government recognizing the all around food value of Soy Beans 
are urging increased acres of this wonderful crop. Many farmers are 
setting their corn planters to 30” and planting in rows. This allows 
space for cultivation and the growers report approximately same yield 
as when planting solid. It requires about 1 bushel per acre with 
planters and about 2 bushels per acre to sow solid with the grain drill. 
Mi is the improved strain of Manchu, earlier than the Man- 
ingo chu we are accustomed to growing. Mingo is a midseason 
variety used both for HAY and SEED. It grows erect from 36 to 48 
inches tall and carries an abundance of foliage, making it ideal for 
the production of hay. If sown around middle to last of May can be 
cut around last of August when weather is good for curing. FOR 
SEED, Mingo produces from 20 to 30 bushels per acre. The bean is 
yellow, medium sized, with black seed scar. It excels other kinds 
because the beans do not shatter. Mingo is the ideal general purpose 
bean. Per bu. $2.60; 10 bu. lots $2.50 bu. 
Ri hI vi d Mature slightly earlier than Mingo. A heavy yielder 
C Qa and fine to combine for wheat seeding. As the name 
implies, it is especially adapted to good rich soil and is quite resistant 
to lodging. Richland carries a good oil content. Our Experiment Sta- 
tion does not hesitate to recommend this variety and we are certain 
you will be well repaid in a trial sowing. Be sure you plant them in 
good fertile soil for best results. Price per bu. $2.60; 10 bu. lots, per 
bu. $2.50. rs 
h We still offer this variety. It is of the same descrip- 
ancnu tion as Mingo except a little later in maturing and 
not so pure. Price per bu. $2.60; 10 bu. lots $2.50 bu. 
D nfi | d This bean is later in maturing than Mingo but ear- 
ul e lier than Scioto. Thus is adapted over quite a large 
area of the state.-It can be used for seed in all the southern and cen- 
tral part of Ohio and way to the north if no fall crop is to follow. The 
oil content is the highest among the commercial varieties. Price per 
bu. $2.60; 10 bu. lots $2.50 bu. 
S i t Scioto was developed by the Ohio State University and 
cioto released for distribution in 1933. The stalk as you note 
by the picture is very tall with stiff stem and set on an abundance 
of pods. It has been yielding at least three to five more bushels per 
acre than either Illini or Manchu. It is slightly later than Manchu 
and beans are similar but somewhat smaller. It has proven an ex- 
ceedingly good variety especially for the southern half of Ohio. Why 
plant another variety when Scioto is so outstanding in every way. 
Price per bu. $2.60; 10 bu. lots, per bu. $2.50. 
Wil A medium sized black bean of unusual qualities, won- 
ison derful hay bean, grows very prolific, with many leaves. 
Is heavy yielder of beans and a variety we recommend very strongly. 
Plant a few of these beans in the corn you put in the silo. Price per. 
bu. $2.60; 10 bu. lots per bu. $2.50. 
Vir inia A light brown vining type variety that is very popu- 
g lar for sither hay or planting with corn for ensilage; 
ee Ns too late for seed. Price per bu. $2.60; 10 bu. lots per bu. 
.50.

Long Awns but Smooth as velvet—Yields as heavy or heavier than Bearded Varieties— 
Disease Resistant. Six Rows—Stiff Straw that will not lodge easily. 



This variety was originated at the Wnt- 
versity of Minnesota and there has outyielded 
all other kinds. The Ohio State University and 
Experiment Station have also had good results. 
This Barley has long heads and long awns which 
are smooth as velvet. Handles like Oats. Matures 
same season as other kinds. Price per bu. $1.60; 
10 bu. lots $1.50 per bu. 
TREAT BARLEY WITH CERESAN 
This variety has come 
Fall Barley quickly into © prominence 
principally because of the high yields it has 
been making the last few years. Yields of 60 
to 80 bushels are not uncommon. Chinch bugs 
have not bothered this kind as it ripens too 
early for them. It should be sown latter part of 
September, and will ripen last of June. Write us 
this summer for prices.
