IT PAYS TO GROW HENDERSON'S CLYDESDALE 



"/ raised 1.1S3 bushels of Clydesdale Oals Ihis year on IS acres. They are a very fine 

 quality, plump oat. I purchased 3 bushels of Imported Clydesdale Oats from you three years 

 ago and this is the result. It has been highly satisfactory. The straw on this crop of oats 

 would average more than four feet high and did not lodge to a?nount to anything, although 

 we had many heavy storms in this section and many other Oals lodged badly." 

 Sept. nth. 191-5. M. W. HICKS, Granville, N. Y. 



"I purchased from you last spring, 1.5 bushels Clydesdale Oats which I put on 4 4-S acres 

 and got 430 bushels of beautiful oals." 

 March 27th. 1914. CYRUS REIMER. 701 Swetland Bldg., Cleveland, Ohio. 



"The Oats I bought of you made a wonderful showing. I planted 20 acres with your 

 seed and 20 acres with the best seed I could buy in Richmond. There is absolutely no com- 

 parison between the two. The field from your Oats is the prettiest sight on the farm. They 

 have grown higher and faster than anything we have been used to." 



F. H. XILES. Rock Castle, Va. 

 "My Clvdesdale Oals were the grandest oats I have seen in all mv life." 



J.AMES WILLIS, Farringlon. Va. 

 "/ am very much pleased with Henderson's Clydesdale Oats. I purchased 1 bushel and 

 threshed oo bushels machine measure. H. B. .AD.Wl.S. Wellsville, N. Y. 



HENDERSONS 



IMPORTED 



CLYDESDALE OATS 



THE MOST POPULAR HIGH-GRADE 

 WHITE OAT IN THE UNITED STATES 



Early and Productive — Free from Disease 

 Weigh 50 Pounds to the Measured Bushel 



Since we introduced this Grand Oat it has steadily and 

 deser^^edly 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 thej' 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 hand- 

 ling, and that they have been thoroughly cleaned by the latest 

 and most improved machinerj^ and are absolutely free frorn 

 foreign and weed seeds. Sow 3 bushels per acre. {See 

 engraving. ) 



PRICE, Imported Clydesdale Oats, per peck $0.65 



Per Standard bushel of 32 lbs 2.20 



10-bushel lots and upward, per bushel 2.10 



IGO-bushel lots, per bushel 2.00 



NOTE — We are glad to be able to offer Henderson's Imported 

 Clydesdale Oats as usual. Owing to the war, we at one titne 

 thought ive would have to drop this valuable variety from our list. 

 But we have been able to import our usual stock, under special 

 license from the British Government. This year's importation 

 is plump, heavyweight, bright grain of the highest gertninative 

 power. P. H. & Co. 



HENDERSONS 



^""grown Clydesdale Oats 



In order to give Henderson's Clydesdale a stiU wider 

 distribution and make their value universally known, and to 

 enable us to offer them at a price within the reach of every 

 farmer, we have had several thousand bushels specially 

 grown for us in Northern New York during the past year. 

 These we have thoroughly recleaned, and are extra choice 

 and heavy, free from all foul seeds and light and imperfect 

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

 bats 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. 



PRICE, American-Grown Clydesdale, per peck $0.50 



Per Standard bushel of 32 lbs 1.55 



lO-bushel lots and upward, per bushel ........ 1.50 



100-bushel lots, per bushel 1.45
