This new Barley, dissminated first a few yars ago, has demonstrated its marked superiority over all the commonly sown varieties. Like Oderbrucker, it is derived from the Manshury, received originally in 1899 from the Ontario Station at Guelph, and went through a breeding process requiring ten years of careful selection. It has the special merit of stiff straw so that it does not lodge easily, produces a very high yield, malts perfectly and has the advantage of being absolutely pure. The fact that practically all the members of the "Wisconsin Experiment Station Association now grow Pedigree Barley is a strong indication of the high value placed upon this variety by the progressive farmers of the state.

The Wisconsin Standard Barley Introduced by the Wisconsin Agrlciiltaral Experiment Station In IDOC, at the Time the Heaviest Yielding and Flampeat 0-Rowed Barley Ever Introduced Into the United States. Oderbrucker, originally secured from the Ontario Ex- periment Station, was one of the first of the new strains developed at the Wisconsin Experiment Station, and so pronounced are its superior qualities, that it is now one of the standard Barleys in this and neighboring states. It yields from 5 to 10 bushels more per acre than any of the old varieties, is unusually good for malting purposes, and on ac- count of its high protein content, nearly double that of other varieties, it is an exceedingly fine feeding Barley. It is rust resistant, has a plump, very heavy kernel, and the stiffness of Its straw is unusual. Per peck 55c; bushel $;
