A Grain of Unusual Qualities 
Speltz, also called Emmer, is quite different from the ordinary ; 
grain crop. It resembles Barley but is really a species of wheat. 
The grain is broader than Barley, and the kernels are not so tight- 
ly enclosed in the hull. The grain is softer. The shuck and grain 
both have good feeding value. It makes a rich feed that is pala- 
table and relished by all kinds of live stock. 
Characteristics 
It is very hardy, being grown in the northern states, and in semi-arid regions. 
You will find it a remarkable drought resister. Neither is it easily affected by 
rust or blight. The straw is pithy and strong. Maturity is very early. A fine 
nurse crop. Produces a grain crop under dry conditions that would cause a 
failure of other small grains. You will find it growing over a wide territory. 
Fine Stock Feed 
“You can use it for poultry feed. Cows show a marked liking for it and it is 
often fed with bran and shorts to milk cows. Hogs thrive on it. It is a fattening 
grain and will put weight on hogs and cattle in a hurry. Speltz helps to cut down 
feed bills. It is good for pasture, fattens in the green state, and is a heavy 
stooler. We are sure you will like Speltz, and that it will prove a very profitable 
crop for you. We have it this year. 
Easy to Grow 
Prepare ground same as you would for any small grain crop. Sow 2 4 
bushels per acre. Drill or broadcast. Harvest when Heard dency stage. thract 
with ordinary grain thresher like wheat, but use fewer concaves. 
Consider its resistance; its early maturity; its heavy yields; its high feeding 
value and palatability. You will find it worthy of a trial and once tried we are 
sure you will always want some 
Speltz on the farm.
