SPRING WHEATS 
MIDA (BREAD) : 
Is a bearded, early maturing variety having medium 
stiff straw, is moderately resistant to stem rust and 
bunt, susceptible to loose smut and moderately suscep- 
tible to scab. Has high test weight per bushel and ap- 
pears equal to Thatcher in milling and- baking quality, 
except that it has given lower loaf volume and has a 
shorter fermenting and mixing period. Susceptible to 
leaf rust. 
RUSHMORE 
The high quality, disease resistant wheat from the 
South Dakota Experiment Station at Brookings, S. D. 
Has stiff straw and is an excellent yielder of high grade 
milling wheat. 
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 maxi- 
mum of disease resistance. It's immune to every race 
of rust found in this area. It's wilt resistant and more 
tolerant 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 of 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. 1135. It has 
fair resistance to wilt. 
FLAX B-5128 
B-5128 has done a wonderful job in southern Minne- 
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 va- 
Tieties. 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 
bushels per acre.
