of 1935 and 1937 show yields of Thatcher 250% 
of New Marquis and over 350% of Red Fife. Think of 2% to 
3% times as much wheat per acre grown side by side with the 
other varieties. If you have rains, morning dews and relatively high humidity by all 
means grow Thatcher wheat. Price per bu., $3.10; 10 bu. or more, $3.00. 
Ma : DA THE GREATEST NEW. 

The seed of this great new vuriety is still scarce. 
The time to start growing new varieties is when 
they are scarce. You can then generally sell your 
first crop in your own neighborhood for seed at a 
premium price. That is especially true when a new 
variety has such great merit as Mida Spring Wheat. 
It is not an experimental variety but of proven 
quality in several big spring wheat states. 
It is an early maturing variety with straw of good strength. 
It is a bearded grain. It is resistant to leaf and stem rust 

The demand for flax seed remains high and with 
these famous Wilt Resistant varieties yields of 12 
to 18 bushels per acre are obtained. Flax is easy to 
grow and makes a wonderful nurse crop. Adapted 
to most of the spring oat section where rainfall is 
25 or more inches per year. Grows best on medium 
to heavy land. Best results on clean land following 
soybeans or a cultivated crop like corn. Sow early 
in the spring on a firm seed bed. Cover lightly. 
Use a roller if you can where soil is loose. Either

produced from several crosses made by the North

sure to consider quality and do not be confused by claims 
of big yields on wheat that will not make decent flour. 
Mida ranks foremost in yield coupled with quality. We

Wilt Resistant FLAX for Bigger Profits 
Bison 
_This is the most disease resistant of Flax ¥Varie- 
ties. ; Resists both Rust and Wilt. It is also the 
heaviest yielder when sown early. Is large seeded 
and requires about a bushel of seed per acre. In 
the main flax sections it is in big demand. 
Red Wing 
Matures about a week earlier than Bison and is 
therefore better adapted when seedings must be de- 
layed or where early maturity is desired. When 
it is necessary to sow late the Red Wing will usu- 
ally outyield Bison. Seed is smaller. Sow % bu. 
per acre.
