FLAX 
MARINE 
Marine is a new flax developed by North Dakota. 
It is earlier than Redwood and will prove to be very 
dependable and a superior performer having a maximum 
- of disease resistance. It’s immune to every race of rust ~ 
found in this area. It’s wilt resistant and more toler- 
ant to pasmo than most varieties. Oil content is high 
and of excellent quality. 
REDWOOD 
A new variety developed by U. S. D. A. at Minne- 
sota. It yields about the same as B-5128 but is on an 
average 6 days earlier. Redwood is immune to races 
of rust found in the U. S. A. in same manner as Shey- © 
enne, B-5128, Crystal, C. J.-1118 and C. J. 1185. It has © 
fair resistance to wilt. 
FLAX B-5128 a 
B-5128 has done a wonderful job in southern Aitenes 
sota, northern Iowa, the Dakotas and Texas. It is im- © 
mune to races of rust found in the U. S. A. At both the © 
Waseca and southwestern Minnesota Experiment Sta- — 
tions it has outyielded new Redwood and all other var- 
ieties. It is susceptible to Pasmo, as are all varieties, 
but is moderately resistant to wilt. With B-5128, care 
should be taken to not use more than the recommended — 
amount of 2, 4-D in weed control. B-5128 is a late ma- — 
turing variety. 
Drill flax at the rate of one half to three quarters fe 
bushels per acre. 
BARLEY | : 
“L" OR KINDRED BARLEY 4, 
“L” is a rough awned six row variety of the Man- 
churian type, having medium maturity, considerably i 
resistant to stem rust, excellent yielding ability and — 
less susceptibility to blight and root rot than WISCON- 
SIN 38. It has a medium straw height but only fair a 
strength of straw. In spite of an imperfect straw LS 
strength, it has the main characteristic of a good bar- | 
ley demonstrated by the fact that at the six Minnesota 
Experiment Stations it has averaged for the past four 
‘years 47.5 bushels per acre.
