LONG'S WHITE TARTAK OATS 



THE IDEAL SIDE OAT POK 

 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 wliom 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 fi-om 8 to 103^ 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: TOO 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 aU the necessary qual- 

 ifications which go to make an ide'al Oat. Sow 3 bushels 

 per acre. {See engraving.)

WHAT PROGRESSIVE FARMERS THINK: 



"Last February I obtained from you 30 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 50 bushels." 



Jan. 21st, 1915. J . HEMSLEY JOHNSON , 623 Equitable Bldg., Baltimore, Md. 

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

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

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

 Feb. 22d, 1915. A. B. HARWOOD, Baldwinsvilie, Mass. 



"Long's While 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, Dillsburg, 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

Ibcirs."

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 impUes 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 tiy this variety. Sow 3 bushels per acre. 



PRICE, Imported Storm King Oats, per peck $0.80 



Per Standard bushel of 32 lbs 2.75 



10-bushel lots and upward, per bushel 2.65 



100-bushel lots, per bushel 2.55
