THREE PROFITABLE OATS. 



COLDEN FLEECE OATS. 



New, Handsome and Prolific. 

 Over 100 Bushels Per Acre. 



This splendid new oats is the best thing olTered for a long time; indeed, I think it is the best 

 oats ever developed. It Is a genuine agricultural trophy and prize winner. It originated in 

 central New York, and has already been widely tested and approved. First ofiered in 191)2, and 

 it met everybody's expectations fully. The yield of Golden Fleece oats has reached as much as 

 4,752 pounds of cleaned seed per acre. This is liK bushels of H pounds each, or nearly 150 bushels 

 of 82 pounds each. The large white grains are plump and handsome. The straw is very strong, 

 and stands up well. The blade is double the size of ordinary oats, which attests the vigor and 

 productive capacity of the strain. Golden Fleece is remarkable for its gresit stooling capacity, 

 and for this reason the seeding requirements are lighter than with most other sorts. I believe 

 that this new oats, by reason of its unusual vigor, will prove distinctly profitable in many 

 places where the oats crop has heretofore been a failure, or only a partial success. In all oats 

 growing sections the Golden Fleece will prove to be a perfect treasure, not only In the way oJ 

 heavy production but in point of quality. I therefore again recommend it to my customers in, 

 strong terms. I may add that this variety shows a marked disposition to produce three fuli 

 kernels on each spikelet, thus adding enormously to the yield. Pkt., 10 cts.; lb., 25 cts.; 3 lbs. 

 (jj cts., postpaid. By express or freight, pk.. 50 cts.; bu. of o2 lbs., SI. 50; 10 bus., 812.50. 



MORTGAGE LIFTER OATS. Just What Its Name Implies. 



I take satisfaction in the conspicuous and universal success of this highly profitable oats. Nc 

 better name than Mortgage Lifter could have been selected for it, as it is' a first-class cropper 

 early to mature, and of unusually heavy weight. The straw is strong and stiff, and is thus fai 

 free from rust. It is so strong and thrifty that neither freezing weather, protracted drought 

 heavy rain nor hot wind seems to have much effect upon Its growth. It appears able to gc 

 right along from start to finish almost without regard to weather or conditions, ilortgagt 

 Lifter is as bright and white as a new silver dollar, with a hull as thin as a sheet of paper 

 "We have raised," says the originator, "a hundred bushels to the acre." A yield like this Is 

 uncommon, but yields of 60, 70 or 80 bushels can be obtained by any good farmer with carefuJ 

 culture, ily opinion of Mortgage Lifter oats is very high. Packet, 10 cents; pound, 25 cents 

 3 pounds, 65 cents, postpaid. By express or freight, peck, 50 cents; bushel (32 pounds), S1.50 

 10 bushels, S12.50. 



MOLD'S BLACK BEAUTY OATS. The Best of All Black Oats. ^ 



Mold's Black Beauty is undoubtedly the best of all the black oats. The head is long and wel.h^ 

 filled, and it is early. " On account of its remarkable stooling propensities two bushels of seecL" 

 per acre will prove ample. This oat has now had a trial of several years. It has won tliei , 

 praise of many farmers and threshers, who claim that it will yield double the crop of any ordl +;' , 

 nary white oats. Pkt., lOc; lb., 25c.; 3 lbs., 65c., postpaid. By ex. or freight, pk., 40c.; bu., §1.25. i'-. -

 spring wheat in cultivation. It is not excelled

 demanded than any other sort. .Sow IJ-i bushels

 ins foods for poultry. It can be sown any time

 apart each wav. 4 quarts will sow an'acre.
