Th G i 50 lh. 0 t, No oat has ever been so extensive- 
@ rea a ly advertised as Welcome, nor 
been distributed more extensively in all sections of the country. Weighing 
as high as 56 Ibs. per level bushel, it surpasses all others in weight, while 
it is also remarkably productive, over 10 bushels having been grown 
in 1883 from 2 ozs. of seed. It is unusually handsome, straw standing 
almost 6 feet, and I have ‘seen heads over 24 inches in length. In hand- 
ling them they appear to be more like A 1 white wheat instead of oats. For 
feeding also they are more economical than any other, one bushel of Wel- 
come being worth almost two bushels of common oats. The grain is very 
large and handsome, very plump and full, with thin, white, close-fitting 
husk. The Welcome Oats stool heavily, with strong, straight straw of 
good height, stand up well, and crowned with long, beautiful, branching, 
well-filled heads; with good cultivation, they will yield 80 to 125 legal 
bushels per acre; this may seem almost beyond belief, but will be easily un- 
derstood when it is considered that each measured bushel weighs more than 
one and one-half bushels ef any ordinary oats. 
I offer direct headquarters stock; don’t be led to purchase, by 
reason of low prices, spurious seed, but obtain the genuine of MAULE, of 
Philadelphia.

id was offered in 1883 by the introducer for the largest yields 
from one 2 oz. package of Welcome Oats. Mr. Alfred Rose, 
Penn Yan, N. Y., received the first prize, $50.00, for raising 47314 
Ibs. from 2 ozs. of seed. 
THINK OF IT! 4,000 FOR ONE 
I offer strictly genuine and guaranteed direct headquarters stock. 
Beware of Seed Offered at Low Prices. 
Last year thousands of bushels were sold at $10.00 per bus. This 
year all I ask is $1.75 per bus. One week earlier than ordinary 
cats, and therefore the best for the Southern States.
