Gardening Equipment and supplies Catalogs; Seeds Catalogs; Bulbs (Plants) Catalogs; Flowers Catalogs; Flowers Seeds Catalogs. 66 PETER HENDERSON & CO., NEW YORK.—WINTER WHEAT. WINTER WHEAT. Prices are subject to the fluctuations of the market. The prices herein named are those ruling; at this date (Aujfust) for the new crop 1900. Delivery f. o. to. f*e-w York. Special quotations to large buyers. RURAL NEW YORKER, No. 57. Has heavily bearded heads which are beautifully symmetrical, being pointed at the tip, broad in the middle and tapering towards the stem. The straw is unusually tall and strong and stools freely, frequently having 35 to 40 stalks from a single grain. The heads are compact, averaging three kernels to a spikelet or "breast," and ten breasts to a side. The kernels are of medium size and of an attractive color, between the so-called "'red" and amber. Possessing the requisite degree of hardness for the production of the finest grade of flour, it will be much sought after by millers. The chaff is clear white, with a trace of velvet sufficient to make it difficult for the green fly to attack it, and the heads do not mildew as the full velvet chaff varie- ties are liable to do.
