THREE PROFITABLE OATS. 
GOLDEN FLEECE OATS. Now, Handsome and Prolific. 
ver 100 Bushels Per Acre. 
This splendid new oats is the best thing offered 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. I offered it last year, a: 
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 108 bushels of 44 pounds each, or nearly 150 bushels | 
| of 32 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 { 


MORTGAGE LIFTER OATS. Just What Its Name implies. 
I take satisfaction in the conspicuous and universal success of this highly profitable oats. No} 
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 far} 
free from rust.. Mortgage Lifter is full of fresh new vigor, and is the hardiest and healthiest 4 
variety grown. It is so strong and thrifty thateneither freezing weather, protracted drought, } 
heavy rain nor hot wind seems to have much effect upon its growth. It appears able to go 
right along from start to finish, almost without regard to weather or conditions. The grain is} 
the heaviest in existence to-day. Mortgage 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 ob= 
tained by any good farmer with careful culture. My 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), $1.50; 10 bushels, $12.50. q 
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 well 
filled, and it is early. On account of its remarkable stooling propensities two bushels of seed} 
per acre will prove ample.. This oat has now had a trial of several years. It has won the4 
praise of many farmers and threshers, who claim that it will yield double the crop of any ordi-# 
nary white oats. Pkt., 10c.; 1b., 25¢.; 3 lbs., 65¢., postpaid. By ex. or freight, pk., 40c.; bu., $1.25. 
WHITE HULLESS BARLEY. 
Grows 2% feet high. Heads well filled. Plump, 
heavy kernels, which are hulless like wheat 
when thrashed. Ripens early and yields well. 
Pkt., 10 cts.; 1b., 25 cts.; 3 lbs., 65 cts, postpaid. 
By express, peck, 60 cents; bushel, $2.00. 
IMPROVED EVERGREEN BROOM CORN. 
The best for general cultivation. Brush firm, 
of good length and bright green color. Pkt., 
10 cts.; 1b., 25 cts.; 3 Ibs., 65 cts., postpaid. By 
express or freight, peck, 60 cts.; bushel, $2.00. 
SPRING RYE. 
Used with profit as a catch crop where grain 
has winter killed. Quite commonly employed 
within recent years, and the demand is con- 
stantly increasing. Sow about 114 bushels to 
the acre. Pkt., 10 cts.; lb., 25 cts.; 3 1bs., 65 cts., 
postpaid. Peck, 60 cts; bushel, $1.25. 









Saskatchewan Fife Spring Wheat, 
Widely recognized as the most desirable 
spring wheat in cultivation. It is not excelled 
for earliness, vigor and yield. I find a rapidly 
increasing call for spring wheat, as well as for 
spring rye. The Saskatchewan Fife is more
