RUSHMORE—Newest Spring Wheat 
The wheat with the "Growth Factor" 
Earliness, Stiff-Straw, Resistance to Shattering and high yield are some 
of the reasons for South Dakota Experiment Station’s latest introduction. 
This new beardless, disease resistant, high milling quality wheat, com- 
bines the good points of standard varieties, Pilot, Rival and Mida. Rush- 
more wheat produced on the virgin land of the Bober Farms on dry land 
tested 17.8 per cent protein, the highest test for South Dakota in 1951, 
commanding highest premium on the grain market.

SHEYENNE FLAX 
a top quality CASH CROP

ties and is more disease resistant. The best CASH CROP and 
the best NURSE Crop to plant with alfalfa and grass seed.

on fertile land.

Wider Drill Rows Give Better Alfalfa Stands 
We all like shade on hot summer days, and livestock does better if you give 
them some sort of protection in hot weather. ... But not alfalfa or clover. 
They need sunshine. If you use a nurse crop it makes a difference how you plant 
your grain, if you are trying to get a good stand of legumes. 
In tests with oats and alfalfa-bromegrass at Iowa State College, drilling the 
oats in rows 14 inches apart gave the alfalfa and brome plants more sunlight 
than broadcasting. As a result, they counted a fourth more alfalfa plants, and 
almost twice as many brome plants, in the drilled grain than in the broadcast 
oats. . 
On Bober Seed Farms we use Sheyenne Flax for a nurse crop to alfalfa, be- 
cause this Sheyenne Flax is earlier maturing than any other good flax, because 
it has few leaves and does not shade the ground like grain does. And flax is 
supported on the market at more than $4 a bushel. IF YOU WISH A GOOD 
stand of ALFALFA and a real good CASH CROP order Sheyenne Flax with 
your alfalfa seed from Bober’s.
