WISCONSIN PEDIGREE NO. 38 BARBLESS 
Wisconsin Pedigree No. 38 originated at the Wisconsin Experiment Station in 1916 when a black, 
smooth awn barley from gouthern Russia was crossed with Oderbrucker. The object was to combine 
the yield, stiffness of straw, light color and high quality of the Oderbrucker with the smooth awn of 
this Russian barley. The result has been marvelous, for not only has a smooth awn been secured but 
the yield of the Oderbrucker has been greatly increased while all of the other good qualities have been 
ge THE VALUABLE FEATURES OF WISCONSIN BARBLESS ARE: . 
First—Smooth Beards. This makes the barley nice to handle. Some farmers say they would just 
as soon handle this barley as to handle oats. 
Second—Resistance to Hot Weather. This barley is from three to five days later than Oderbrucker 
and other rough bearded barley. This is not an objection but an advantage as it simply adds to the 
maturity period producing a larger kernel than the earlier varieties. 
Third—Heavy Yielding Qualities. It has gone way beyond all others in yield. In the southern counties 
the yields have been shooting up as high as 80 bushels per acre, machine measure. 55 and 60 seem 
quite common, which is easily a gain of one-fourth to one-third over the rough barley. 
In addition to its other good qualities it has shown itself much more resistant to stripe disease than 
any other barley.

WISCONSIN PEDIGREE BARLEY (Rough Bearded Oderbrucker) 
(Wisconsin Pedigree 5-1) 
Wisconsin Pedigree Barley has for years held its place as the leading variety of six-rowed barley. 
It has doubled the yield of common barley and has been worth millions of dollars to the farmers of 
Wisconsin alone. 
It originated at the Wisconsin College of Agriculture and was the result of 12 years of pains- 
taking breeding work. It still stands out above all previous varieties of barley for heavy yield, plump 
grain, stiff straw, large heads and great feeding value. Some of our growers think it yields better 
than the new Wisconsin No, 88.
