The famous Quaker Oats 



Famous the 

 World Over 



The Hardiest and Healthiest Oat in Existence. 



ITS CARDINAL POINTS. 



ONE— YIELD— It is a great natural yielder; thousands of our customers report yields of 100 to 

 200 bushels per acre. 



TWO— DROUGHT-PROOF— It matures so early that the crop can be gathered before the dry 

 summer weather sets in— it seemingly withstands all elements of weather. 



THREE— QUALITY— No variety can excel it in superior quality; it makes better oatmeal than 

 any other sort — all millers prefer it to any other variety. 



FOUR— COLOR— The color is extremely beautiful at all times, which aids it to sell readily at 

 an advance price in every market. The Famous Quaker Oats grade No. 1 every time. 



FIVE— STRENGTH— This, as every Oat grower appreciates, is one of the essential points in a 

 good Oat. Quaker Oats never lodge and will withstand stronger winds and storms than any other 

 variety. 



SIXTH— COST— Every Oat grower knows what it costs to save a bushel of Stock Seed Oats and 

 we are asked thousands of times each season why we can sell Buckbee's Seed so cheap. It is only by 

 growing them ourselves in such large quantities that we are able to sell them to our customers, who 

 appreciate good seeds so cheaply. The mere cost of seed to plant an acre is not a drop in the bucket 

 to what you make on your crop. 

 SEVENTH— PROFIT— Just think a minute what profit you will realize 

 by having an Oat with so many good points — the quantity you can sell your 

 neighbors for seed next year— and remember if you market your crop you 

 are sure of No. 1 grade price. 



EIGHTH TO ONE HUNDRED— We could enumerate fully this num- 

 ber of additional cardinal points wherein the Quaker Oats excel others, 

 but Buckbee's customers know from experience when a seed of any 

 description is offered by Buckbee that it can be banked upon as being 

 Tight. 



Quaker Oats never weigh less than 40 pounds per struck bushel 

 measure, and nine times out of ten, from 44 to 49 pounds per bushel. 



THE 



HARDIEST AND HEALTHIEST 

 OATS IN EXISTENCE. Straw is strong, stiff and free from rust. The 

 grain is the heaviest known; bright as a new silver dollar. Wonder- 

 ful yielder, producing from 100 to 200 bushels per acre under average 

 conditions. For absolute satisfaction, plant only "Quaker Oats." Send 

 to Buckbee for choicest Stock Seed.
