A disease resistant, non-shattering, uniform, early maturing variety, 
developed from Wheatland by W. P. Martin at Lubbock, Texas, in 
1937, now the most popular and widely grown type of combine

bine harvesting under humid conditions. Affords a consistently high 
yield of grain with high feed value. Plants stand erect, not leafy, with 
long seed stems; seed-heads erect, long, somewhat open, spreading 
at maturity; seed reddish, shatter-proof, slightly hard but brittle.
