Valuable Characteristics 
Earlyana grows as tall as the Richland. 
Matures about 10 to 12 days earlier than the 
Illini and Dunfield. Is earlier than Wis. Man- 
chu 3 and Wis. Manchu 606. The oil content 
compares favorably with Illini and Richland, 
but has a higher percentage of protein than 
these two varieties. Average yield is larger 
than most of the other early varieties. Is 
adapted to a wide range of soil conditions. 
It grows faster in early stages of growth 
than other standard varieties. This helps 
weed control. The seed is about the same 
size as Illini. The seed has a brown speck 
at one end of the hilum. 
Make Money Now 
Start growing these sensational soy beans 
while they are new. Very few farmers are 
growing them. There will be a big demand 
for the next few years. They can be sown 
papers. Lincoln Soy Beans are taking 
the country by storm. Here is the story 
in a nutshell. The Lincoln variety is a 
selection from a natural cross, made at 
Tll. Agr. Experiment Station. The seed 
is yellow with a prominent black hilum, 
similar to Manchu. Seed is. slightly 
larger than the Illini, but smaller than 
the Richland. Usually three seeds in a pod on fertile 
soil; Has white flowers instead of purple. Yields larger 
than other yellow varieties. In six year official tests in 
Iowa, Ill., Wis., Mich., Ohio, Va.,.Mo., and Nébr. in each 
individual year the Lincoln outyielded the IMini and Dun- 
field 5.2 bushels or 18.6 percent. Lincoln has a higher 
oil content (21.3) than most all well known varieties. It 
lodges less than most varieties. Is taller than Richland. 
Is earlier than Illini and Dunfield. One of my friends 
[2BU.$5 15 
PER BU. 

who lives in Indiana about 110 miles southeast of Chicago, 
sold us several hundred bushels of these Certified Lincoln 
Soy Beans. He told me he planted 26 pounds per acre 
and obtained a yield of 36 bushels per acre. I know him 
to be honest and reliable. Another farmer reported plant- 
ing 3 pecks and a yield of 40 bushels per acre. It will be 
three or four years before there will be enough Lincolns 
to supply the demand. There was a limited acreage, not 
enough to take care of the demand. We have to limit 
orders to not over 20 bushels. We want to take care of 
in north central Illinois, Iowa, Indiana and 
Ohio. As far north as central Wisconsin, 
Michigan and southern part of New York. 
Can be sown late in the season. Harvest 
Earlyana early and put a fall wheat crop on 
this land. Our stock limited. May have to 
ration them before end of season. PRICE—
