Abraham Adams Originates Wonder
full Wheat.


IL someone was to tell the average
wheat farmer that 1t was possible to
raise wheat crop on United States
farms in one year of five billions OF
bushels, he would brand his inform
ant as dreamer, and yet had the
farmers in America planted a won
derful new wheat seed that has been
perfected by Abraham Adams of JUL
ietta, Idaho, that is just what the
yield would have been this season,
based upon the probable crop of the
year.
Connected with this assertion Is
the greatest wheat story that has
ever been told, far greater than the
widest dreams of the wheat king, in
the security of his past. domain and
the demand for his golden harvest.
The United States paid eighty mill
lions of money for Alaska, and yet
the great gold payment sinks into in
significance when compared with
Farmer Adams Alaska wheat which
he has gradually brought to perfec-
ton until he has given to the world a
wheat that will grow under average
conditions 200 bushels to the acre.
This is large assertion, and hard
ly believable we're 1t not for the fact
that 1t Is backed up by surveys of
land and output of threshers, and the
yield and quality Backed up by the
Idaho experimental station at Mos
COW, Idaho, and being followed up
by other stations, all eager to make
test to see If they can beat the
yield of the originator. The yield Is
only part of the great discovery,
for this Alaska wheat is both win
ter and spring wheat, and when
planted as either Is hard wheat
that will grade as No. /, Imagine
a hard winter wheat for the great
soft wheat belts of the country,
which with this new wheat can COM
pete with the hard wheat lands Of the
great northwest.
brief history of this almost mir
aculous seed is given in few words
by its modest originator, plain
man, who farms in plain way, but
who all his life, until old age, has
| lived with and for his wheat and
has finally given to the world the
greatest gift any one man has ever
been responsible for.
Mr.. Adams first perefect head of
wheat came to realization in 1904,
from an experimental plant of the
spring of that year. This one head
