LONG'S WHITE TARTAK OATS 



THE IDEAL SIDE OAT FOK 

 THE AMERICAN FARMEK 



This grand Side Oat, imported by us in 1901 and grown for us 

 by Mr. I. S. Long, a prosperous, scientific farmer of Lebanon County, 

 Pa. — in compliment to whom it was named — has proven remarkably 

 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 and indicate that it 

 holds up well in size, weight and yield, year after year, even -in 

 sections where other varieties rapidly deteriorate. The past season 

 was a very favorable one for all grain crops; it has maintained its 

 reputation as the earliest, heaviest and most prolific Oat in cultiva- 

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

 is remarkably early and an immense cropper; the straw, usually 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 10}-^ inches, 

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

 has proven its superiority, and is undoubtedly the heaviest cropping 

 domestic white Oat ever offered. Planted alongside some of the 

 older varieties, 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 fair conditions. A field of this 

 Oat in any farming community invariably attracts the attention, 

 admiration and envy of neighboring farmers. 



Its extreme earliness, great length and strength of straw, 

 thick, plump grains and the heavy yields it is capable of 

 producing give Long's White Tartar all the necessary qual- 

 ifications which go to make an ideal Oat. Sow 3 bushels 

 per acre. (See engraving.)

WHAT PROGRESSIVE FARMERS THINK: 



"Last February I obtained from you SO bushels of your Long's White Tartar 

 Oats. The results were so satisfactory, that I am going to plant the same again 

 this season. Please quote price on 60 bushels." 

 Jan. Blst, 1915.- J. HEMSLEY JOHNSON, 6'23 Equitable Bldg., Baltimore, Md. 



" The Long's White Tartar Oats I got from you were great. They have always given 

 good results, but 1 have always wanted to try the Clydesdales. The fact is I have never 

 had an unsali'ifactory crop of any kind on my farm when I used Henderson's Seeds. " 

 Feb. 22d, 191.5. A. B. HARWOOD, Baldwinsville, Mass. 



"Long's White Tartar Oats are very fine. Yield 82 bushels 11 lbs. per acre, 

 I purchased the seed from you two years ago." 



R. S. CLARK. Maple Shade, Dillsbttrg, Pa. 



"About ten years ago I began sowing your famous Long's White Tartar Oats 



and ever since then I have averaged a crop yield ranging from 50 to 70 bushels per 



acre, weighing from the machine 36 to 38 lbs. per bushel; as compared with my 



neighbors, my yield has been

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 King 

 Oats which has proven highly satisfactory. The repeated successful 



trials warrant us cataloging and recommending it. We advise every 

 grower of Oats to try this variety. Sow 3 bushels per acre. 



PRICE, Imported Storm King Oats, per peck $0.65 



Per Standard bushel of 32 lbs 2.20 



10-bushel lots and upward, per bushel 2.10 



100-bushel lots, per bushel 2.00
