New Erie Barley 
CERTIFIED SEED 
For many years there has been a real need fof an improvement over the 
old Alpha Barley. In feeding value barley is equal to corn and with good yields 
this can be one of the most profitable crops. Erie Barley is a wonderful new 
strain that has some remarkable qualities. 
VERY STIFF STRAW 
Even under fertile conditions there is no danger of the crop going down. 
There is none of the crinkling that was so common in older strains. This makes 
Erie Barley a wonderful crop to seed down with. Many who are having trouble 
growing alfalfa should try some of the new ranger alfalfa with barley. 
DISEASE RESISTANCE 
_Dr. Jensen, Cornell plant breeder has done a splendid job in developing this 
strain. He has bred resistance to powdery mildew. This seed traces back to hot 
water treated Foundation Seed and is free from loose smut. 
NO BARBS 
Many have objected to barley because of the sharp barbs. This objection 
was especially noticeable with grain cut with a binder. However even with the 
combine it is a pleasure to handle the straw without the nuisance of the barbs.

Oats & Barley-Mixed 
SPECIAL MIXTURES 
One of the easiest ways to cut down on the feed bill is to grow a crop of 
mixed grains. A mixture of oats and barley can be used for over half the in- 
gredients of a feed mixture. The local feed store will gladly supply supple- 
ments to balance the protein and fat of your ration. The new strains of oats 
ripen at the same time as the new barley. This makes for an ideal combination. 
It works well either with a combine or a thresher.

Genesee Wheat 
TESTED MIXTURE 
CORNELL DEVELOPS NEW WHEAT VARIETY 
Genesee is the name of the new winter wheat which will be available for 
planting again this fall. It is a beardless, brown-chaffed, yellow strawed wheat 
that brings together many of the best features of Yorkwin and Cornell 595. It 
has stronger straw than Yorkwin and compares favorably with 595 in straw 
strength. It is shorter than both. The grain of Genesee does not shatter so 
readily in the field when ripe as does that of 595. Genesee has the high loose 
smut resistance of Cornell 595. In regional tests to date this new variety has 
outyielded the other two by about 8%. Write for prices about August 1. 
595 wheat is also available. It has a little stiffer straw.
