HENDERSON'S 



IMPORTED CLYDESDALE OATS 



THE MOST POPULAK HIGH-GRADE 

 WHITE OAT IN THE UNITED STATES 



Since we introduced this Grand Oat it has steadily and de- 

 servedly gained in popularity, until today it is the most popular 

 High-Grade White Oat in the United States. 



The climate of America is unsuited to the production and 

 maintenance of the highest grade of Oats, and unless a heavy 

 imported (British) Oat be used for seed purposes at least every 

 second or third year, they become light, "chaffy", inferior 

 in quality and unprofitable. The ultimate financial benefit 

 accruing to the American farmers by the annual distribution 

 of several thousand bushels of Henderson's Clydesdale Oats 

 cannot be overestimated. These Oats weigh naturally 50 lbs. 

 per measured bushel, and they deteriorate in weight only from 

 three to four lbs. each year they are grown here, so that the 

 produce is worth for seed purposes at least double the market 

 value of ordinary Oats. 



No other Oat can show such a record — 75 to 100 bushels per 

 acre, and double the usual quantity of straw. Another most 

 important advantage of Henderson's Clydesdale Oats to the 

 farmer is the fact that they do not shell out in handling, and 

 that they have been thoroughly cleaned by the latest and most 

 improved machinery, and are absolutely free from foreign and 

 weed seeds. Sow 3 bushels per acre. (See engraving.)

HENDERSON'S 

 AmericarvGrown CLYDESDALE OATS 



In order to give Henderson's Clydesdale a still wider distribu- 

 tion and make their value universally known, we have had 

 several thousand bushels specially grown for us during the 

 past year. These we have thoroughly recleaned, and they 

 are extra choice and heavy, free from all foul seeds and light 

 imperfect grains. We are within the mark when we say that 

 these Oats will yield under ordinary cultivation 70 to 80 bushels 

 per acre, and under favorable circumstances 100 bushels per acre 

 can reasonably be expected. Sow 3 bushels per acre.

LONG'S WHITE TARTAR OATS 



This grand Side Oat, imported by us in 1901 has proven re- 

 markably adapted to American climates and conditions, more 

 than fulfilling our anticipations when introduced. Reports from 

 those who grow it — covering many sections of the country — fully 

 verify our first praise and statements regarding this variety. 

 It is suitable for all soils, of robust and vigorous constitution, 

 is remarkably early and an immense cropper; the straw, visually 4 to 

 5 feet in length, is stout, stands up well and does not readily lodge or 

 twist. The heads are very long, measuring from 8 to 10JW inches, 

 and the kernels are of immense size, thick, plump and heavy. It has 

 proven its superiority, and is undoubtedly the heaviest cropping domes- 

 tic white Oat ever offered. Planted alongside some of the older varie- 

 ties, it usually yields more than double the number of bushels per acre 

 of any of the other sorts: 100 bushels per acre may be expected of it 

 under good conditions. A field of this Oat in any farming community 

 invariably attracts the attention and admiration of neighboring farmers. 

 Sow 3 bushels per acre.

IMPORTED STORM KING OATS 



We have pleasure recommending this true White Tartarian or Side 

 Oat. It is a heavy cropper; the grain is short, plump, thin skinned 

 and of the highest feeding value. The straw as its name implies is 

 very strong and- stiff, enabling it to resist the severest weather. The 

 average weight of the grain per measured bushel is 46 lbs. For several 

 years we have distributed a limited quantity of Storm Kim; Oats which 

 has proven highly satisfactory. We advise every grower of ( >ats to try 

 this variety. Sow 3 bushels per acre.
