SEED BARLEY 
BALD or NEPAL BARLEY. An early variety that 
withstands drought remarkably well and ofttimes 
surviving when wheat fails. It has no beard and 
shells off its hulls the same as wheat. A very 
desirable crop for green feed or hay or for grain. 
LICO BARLEY is a smooth awned (without barbs 
on beards), six-rowed, hulled barley. It has less 
flinty kernels and is earlier and stiffer strawed 
than Trebi. Adapted to irrigated conditions. 
TREBI. Six-row, bearded, hulled barley with large, 
bluish kernels, and comparatively weak straw. 
The standard for irrigated sections of the state. 
BEECHER BARLEY is a new semi-smooth awned 
barley adapted to dry land. It is stiff strawed. 
Has a high bushel weight and outyielded Club 
Marioutt. Has replaced older Flynn Production. 
SEED OATS 
BRUNKER OATS are well adapted to dry land. 
being early maturing, smut and drought resisting. 
They are a red oat and were developed by the 
Akron Experiment Station. This variety sug- 
gested in place of Texas Red Rust Proof. It is 
the leading dry land oat. 
COLORADO NO. 37 OATS. This oat is well adapted 
for irrigated areas of Colorado. It is a midseason 
white oat. It is characterized by its high yield; 
its straw and awnless kernels. 
SEED SPRING WHEAT 
THATCHER WHEAT. A new beardless, hard red 
spring wheat that yields at the Fort Collins Sta- 
tion about the same as Komar. It is adapted to 
irrigated conditions only and may replace Komar 
in this area. It is rust resistant. 
REWARD WHEAT is a very new, high yielding, 
beardless, hard, red spring wheat for the dry- 
lands and non-irrigated areas. It has proven 
satisfactory under irrigated conditions where the 
water supply is limited. It shows promising for 
milling and baking. 
SEED RYE 
SPRING RYE is an excellent soiler and can be pro- 
duced on poor, worn out land under dry con- 
ditions where other grains would fail. It is 
useful as a cleaning crop for the purpose of 
eradicating wild oats. Makes early pasture and 
may be cut and cured for hay. When sown with 
vetch its value for pasture and hay is greatly 
enhanced. 
WINTER or FALL RYE serves a very useful purpose 
for pasture and hay. May be sown in spring 
and summer as well as fall. When Winter Rye 
is sown after frost it goes into the following 
season before maturing, making it a biennial. 
BALBOA is an improved variety, producing grain 
and pasture in abundance. It is claimed that 
milk from cows pastured on Balboa Rye will not 
be tainted. 
SWEET SORGHUMS 
ATLAS SORGO is a large, long-season forage 
sorghum developed at the Hays, Kansas, Experi- 
ment Station. It is quite drought resistant and 
produces big yields under favorable conditions. 
' Being very leafy, it is used to a considerable 
extent for the production of silage in Kansas, 
eastern Colorado and Arkansas valley. 
AMBER CANE, maturing in 80 to 100 days, is the 
favorite in many sections because it is the 
earliest. Usually slightly mixed black and red, 
or red and black. 
IMPROVED COES SORGO is a white seeded, semi- 
sweet dual purpose crop. The five stemmed, 
leafy stalk and the seed are very palatable. 
Seed threshes free from the hull. 
LEOTI RED CANE produces a semi-compact reddish 
head that droops slightly at the tip when ripe. 
The stalk is sweet, juicy and leafy. Matures at 
about the average fall frost date when planted 
June Ist to June 6th. 
ORANGE CANE, maturing in 100 to 110 days, has 
higher sugar content and produces more fodder 
than black and red. There are two varieties 
in common use—Red Orange and Sourless 
Orange or African Millet. 
RED TOP, SUMAC OR REDHEAD CANE, matures 
115 to 125 days, and is very popular where good 
forage is required. Very leafy and sweet; has 
high feeding value. Seed threshes free from hull. 
FREMONT CANE, a selection from Orange Sorgo, 
similar to Early Sumac. Matures about the 
same time as black amber. 
GRAIN SORGHUMS 
CHEYENNE SWEET STALK KAFIR is an early mo- 
turing white Kafir growing on a sweet stalk. It 
is a dual purpose crop providing good grain and 
palatable fodder. 
HEGARI is a grain sorghum resembling Kafir and 
Atlas Sorgo. Grows 4 to 5 feet tall and matures 
in 120 days. Makes an excellent grain crop and 
fodder that is relished by stock. Seeds are 
chalky white. Stalks fairly sweet. Leaves broad, 
long and numerous. 
MILO MAIZE stalks are stout, pithy and scantily 
supplied with leaves. Milo make poor silage, 
but the grain has a high feeding value. 
SUDAN GRASS 
Sudan Grass is an annual, non-saccharine sor- 
ghum. The straw is very palatable, and under 
favorable conditions, two cuttings of hay may be 
obtained. It can be pastured to good advantage. 
Plant as soon as the ground is warm or at any 
time during the summer so long as 70 to 80 days 
intervene before the first expected frost. 
SWEET SUDAN GRASS. An improvement over 
common Sudan that is rapidly finding favor with 
feeders and stockmen for hay, forage, and pas- 
ture. It contains more Saccharine than the com- 
mon type and therefore better feeding value.
