Seed Wheat.

The original Stoner Miracle Wheat
We offer for sale limited amount of
choice recleaned seed of this remarkable
new wheat. It's wonderful stooIing
qualities making it unnecessary to sow
more than one-half the amount of seed
required of ordinary varieties.
Further tests of this wheat convinces
US of its undoubted merit, and that in
time it will easily displace all other Win
ter varieties. For the last two years it
has been scarcely damaged at all by
late frosts, when other varieties have
failed entirely. 1t is a hard, red grain
of superior milling qualities.
The originator ADVISES the sowing of
one-half bushel per acre, but on account
of our severe winters we advise sowing
at least double this quantity.
Price, under bushels, $500 per bu.
5 or more bushels, So. 50 per bu. 10 or
more bushels, So. 90 per bushel. Address
