SWEEPSTAKES, West Branch. Harris’ Northern Grown Seed. 
Our northern grown strain of this famous ensilage corn is earlier and 
produces a larger per cent of ears than ordinary Sweepstakes. The 
stalks grow 10 to 12 feet high and are completely covered with leaves 
from near the ground to the top, giving big yields of fine ensilage. 
The ears are 12 to 15 in. long and have 14 to 18 rows of deep kernels. 
The color is red tinged with yellow. This early stock matures perfectly 
for the silo by the middle of September when planted the last of May 
or first of June. 
Our seed is all grown here in Monroe County and is the best obtainable. 
N. Y. State Certified Seed. 2 Lbs. 50c; transportation paid. Not paid: 
Pk. (14 Lbs.) $1.40; Bu. (56 Lbs.) $4.50; Bag of 2 Bu. $8.80. 
HARRIS’ MAMMOTH YELLOW FLINT. The Best Flint Corn. 
We have grown and bred this fine corn here in the North for a good 
many years and consider it one of the best Flint or “‘State’’ corns. The 
ears grow very long, some measuring 13 inches and more, and are 
filled right out to the tips. They have eight rows of large broad kernels, 
of bright yellow color. The cob is small. The stalks grow about 6 to 8 
feet tall, have numerous broad leaves and make excellent fodder. The 
ears are produced well above the ground, so the stalks can be readily 
cut with a binder. Considered a 90 day corn. 
For the Silo. This is a valuable ensilage corn for northern sections 
(even in Northern Maine) where dent varieties cannot be grown. 
2 Lbs. 50c; transportation paid. Not paid: Pk. (14 Lbs.) $1.50. 
SEED GRAIN 
BUCKWHEAT 
JAPANESE. The best variety. Our strain is by far the finest buckwheat 
that can be obtained. The plant grows taller, makes a more vigorous 
growth than the common kinds and yields more. The kernels are very 
large, dark brown or black, plump and heavy. 
Buckwheat will often make a profitable crop on rather poor land, 
where other grain would fail. It is used as a cover crop in orchards, and 
for controlling weeds as it will choke them out. If plowed under before 
the grain ripens it will add valuable humus to the soil. Sow in June 
or July. 
Pk. 85c; Bu. (48 Lbs.) $2.50; Sack of 2 Bu. $4.50. Purchaser pays 

Alpha Barley 
BARLEY 
Barley makes excellent feed for hogs, cattle or horses and is now in 
greater demand because of the recent shortages of corn. It can be raised 
at much less expense and labor than corn and is of equal food value. An 
acre of barley will often produce nearly as much as an acre of corn and 
the expense of raising it is less than half. Barley is an excellent nurse crop 
with which to sow grass or clover seed. 
ALPHA. This is now the most popular variety for feed and is more 
largely grown than any other kind in the East. 
This variety originated at Cornell University and is a two-rowed 
barley with very large, plump heayy grain. The heads are usually 4 to 
5 inches long and well filled. The straw is long, very strong and stands 
up well. The yield on good land is usually 45 to 50 bu. per acre. 
This barley matures later than the common 6 rowed kinds and is 
therefore better for raising with oats, as the two crops mature at the 
same time. 
Malt houses require a six rowed barley so that Alpha is not suitable 
for malting. 
N. Y. State Certified Seed. Pk. $1.00; Single Bu. (48 Lbs.) $3.15; 
Sack of 2 Bu. $6.00; 5 Sacks or more at $5.90 per Sack. Purchaser pays 
transportation. 
i HANNCHEN. A fine | two-rowed barley which closely resembles 
Alpha in type and growth, and has given very good 

results under New York State conditions. It is a nodding barley, with 
long, well-filled heads and the grain is of good size white, plump and 
heavy. The beards are rough. Hannchen ripens at about the same time 
as Alpha and gives fine yields of excellent grain. We recommend this 
variety for New York and New England. 
Pk. 95c; Single Bu. (48 Lbs.) $3.00; Sack of 2 Bu. $5.80; 5 Sacks or 
more at $5.70 per Sack. Purchaser pays transportation.

_ Japanese Buckwheat 
OATS 
There is a tremendous difference in the quality and purity of seed oats 
offered for sale, and that difference may mean success or virtual failure of 
the crop, depending on the quality of seed used. We offer only the finest 
and purest seed oats, with high germination, and a background of de- 
pendable heavy yields. Plant Harris’ Seed Oats and you will have the best. 
LENROC. Heavy Yielding White Oat. The most popular variety for 
—__________ New York State because it can be depended on to give 
heavy and consistent yields under nearly all conditions. It is a tall 
grower and has large plump berries that are nearly white in color. Year 
in and year out it has given better crops of fine oats than any other kind. 
It is a midseason variety, fairly suff strawed and we recommend 
it highly. 
Pk. 80c; Single Bu. (32Lbs.) $2.30; Sack of 3 Bu. $6.60; 5 Sacks or more 
at $6.45 per Sack. Purchaser pays transportation. 
VANGUARD. This is an excellent tall midseason oat which is widely 
$$$. grown in Ontario, Canada, and has proved to be well 
adapted to New York State conditions. The heads are large and 
branching and the kernels are white. 
Vanguard is resistant to stem rust, has a good stiff straw, and the 
yield per acre is very heavy, nearly as great as Cornellian. 
It has been tested over a period of years at Cornell University and 
their results indicate that it has great merit as midseason oat for 
New York State. 
Pk. 75c; Single Bu. (32 Lbs.) $2.00; Sack of 3 Bu. $5.70; 5 Sacks or 
more at $5.55 per Sack. Purchaser pays transportation.
