HENDERSON’S SUPERIOR SEED OATS 
Especially grown from selected stock for seed purposes. Recleaned by the 
most improved machinery, free from weed seeds, small and imperfect grains. 
IMPORTANT. 
4 change of Seed Oats is even more necessary than a change of 
Seed Potatoes, and they should be renewed at least every second or 
third year. At the low prices at which we ojjer below choice recleaned 
Seed Oats, it will pay every time to even renew stock every year. 
Oats grown on the same soil or in the same neighborhood year after 
year deteriorate rapidly and soon become light, chajjy and unprofit- 
able. 
EARLY NEWMARKET. (Imported.) A grand new breed of 
English pedigree Oats of wonderfully vigorous growth, producing 
very early a heavy crop of unusually large, plump Oats, remarkable 
for their thinness of husk, which greatly adds to their feeding 
value. The straw is tall and strong, withstanding unfavorable 
weather well, and is practically immune from rust. For quality, 
earliness, vitality and productiveness the Early Newmarket Oat is 
unsurpassed. (See cut.) 
Price, per bushel (32 Ibs.) $1.80; 10 bushels @ $1.75; 100 
bushels @ $1.70. 
LINCOLN. On its merits this has become one of the most 
popular. Is very strong-strawed, is very early, and is more 
nearly rust-proof than any other variety. The grain is heavy, 
handsome and thin-skinned. You cannot go wrong in sowing 
this variety. 
Price, $1.40 bushel (32 lbs.); 10 bushels and upward, $1.35 
bushel; 100 bushels and upward, $1.30 bushel. 
PROBSTEIER. A leading white variety. It is very pro- 
ductive and heavy, and straw very strong. It is of Scandina- 
vian origin, but well adapted to this climate; it ripens two or 
three days later than many varieties, but yields better. 
Price, $1.30 bushel (32 lbs.); 10 bushels and upward, $1.25 
bushel; 100 bushels and upward, $1.20 bushel. 
WHITE RUSSIAN. Isaside oat somewhat coarse, but is much 
appreciated for its rugged hardiness. It stools freely, has strong 
stiff straw, heads large with plump grain. A heavy cropper. 
Price, $1.50 bushel (32 lbs.); 10 bushels and upward, $1.45 
bushel; 100 bushels and upward, $1.40 bushel. 
BLACK TARTARIAN. A side oat and the most prolific 
and distinct variety of Black Oat grown. Its ear is carried all 
on one side; it is very early, long and strong-strawed, and bears 
a short, plump grain. 
Price, $1.50 bushel (32 lbs.); 10 bushels and upward, $1.45 
bushel. 
WINTER OR TURF OATS. 
WINTER or TURF OATS are quite extensively grown in 
the Southern States, where they are in high favor. Sown in 
the fall they either afford excellent pasturage during the winter 
or give abundant yield the following season. The demand for 
oats of this character has been gradually extending northward, 
and to meet it we have been growing in Northern Pennsylvania, 
for several years, an acclimatized strain which is remarkably 
hardy and will stand the winter as far north as New Jersey. 
They are incomparably superior to the Winter or Turf Oats of 
Virginia; they stool out strongly, are earlier, more vigorous and 
less susceptible to rust; they have stiff straw, stand up well, 
and are much more productive than Spring Oats. Sow in Sep- 
tember, at the rate of 114 bushels per acre, and sow deep. They 
will stand much more severe weather when planted four inches 
deep than near the surface. 
Price, 50c. peck; $1.50 bushel (32 lbs.); 10 bushels and up- 
ward, $1.45 bushel.
