PRACTICALLY RUST AND SMUT PROOF 
This picture shows what this remarkable grain looks like. It is really a typeof 
wheat. It is very nutritious. The shucks cling to the two grains each carries. Grain 
is a little softer than most wheat. Makes wonderful ground feed. It yields well and 
is a very profitable crop under dry conditions. The grain is highly resistant against 
most races of rust and practically immune to smut, 
Speltz is one of the oldest grains known to mankind. Apparently it was grown in 
prehistoric times. German-Russian immigrants introduced it into the United States. 
The Speltz we have is for spring seeding. It is grown from Canada to Texas. Iowa, 
Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan and states to the east are growing it as well as 
Western states where drought conditions are most apt to prevail. 
Speltz is valuable as a nurse crop as it has very strong straw. It matures early. 
Sow 214 bu. per acre as early in the spring as possible. Cut before dead ripe. Thresh 
about like Oats. See Item No. 202 on our Pink Price List,

This is also one of the newer Barleys and in some areas it. may even out perform 
the new Moore Barley. This is a six row, smooth awned, spring Barley. The straw 
srows erect, it is fairly tall, the grain is of medium maturity. It ripens about 
two days ahead of the Wisconsin°38 and has about the same length straw. It has 
ereater resistance to disease than most of the older varieties. It is this disease 
resistance in these new varieties that apparently is responsible for the inerease in 
yields that are obtained. Montcalm is an accepted malting variety of Barley. This Barley seems adapted over a wide area, even in Central and Southern Iowa 
it outyielded those great varieties like the Wisconsin 38, Odessa, Mars, Kindred, and Peatland. It also showed a two pound heavier test weight per bushel. That 
in itself indicated the great value placed upon it by farmers who saw it growing. It is just as fine today. In these days of lower prices inereased production 
per acre is the only way to get more profits. It takes better seed to help you get these greater yields. Our heavy recleaned Montcalm ‘Banev will help you 
get that job done. You will find such seed a wise and sound investment at our present low prices. SEE ITEM 190 ON LIST FOR QUOTATIONS.
