Rye 
SPRING RYE. True stock Spring Rye makes an excellent crop where 
winter grain has been killed out or for sowing where a fall crop has 
not been planted. If desired it can be turned under and made to 
answer a good purpose in adding to the fertility of the soil. Sow 
seed same time as other spring grain. Use Winter Rye for cover crop. 
ROSEN WINTER RYE. Rosen Rye produces a strong vigorous straw 
and stools to a remarkable degree. The grain is large, plump, heavy 
and of beautiful color, commanding a premium on the market over 
other grains. Owing to its vigorous stooling property less seed is 
required, the practice being about one and one-half bushels per acre.
