OATS 



SELECTED VARIETIES 

 OF SUPREME QUALITY 



IMPORTANT. A change of Seed Oats is necessary and the seed should 

 be renewed at least every second or third year. Oats grown on the same soil 

 or in the same neighborhood year after year deteriorate rapidly and soon become light, 

 chaffy and unprofitable. 



CLYDESDALE, AMERICAN GROWN 



To give Henderson's Clydesdale a still wider distribution and make their value 

 universally known and to enable us to offer them at a cost within the reach of 

 every farmer, we have them grown specially for us and are thoroughly recleaned, 

 extra choice and heavy and are large yielders under fair growing conditions. Sow 

 3 bushels per acre. 



Price, peck, 80c; bushel of 32 lbs. 

 100-bushel lots, $1.80 per bushel. 



$2.00; 10-bushel lots, $1.90 per bushel; 



CORNELLIAN 



Small Gray Oat with a very thin hull which gives a high feeding value. A 

 heavy yielder, especially in New York State. We have a true stock, free from 

 impurities. Sow 3 bushels per acre. 



Price, peck, 80c; bushel of 32 lbs., $2.25; 10-bushel lots, per bushel, $2.20; 

 100-bushel lots, per bushel, $2.15. 



LONG'S WHITE TARTAR 



The earliest, heaviest and most prolific domestic-grown Side Oat in cultivation. 

 It is suitable for all soils; of robust and vigorous constitution, is remarkably 

 early and an immense cropper; the straw is long and stout, stands up well and 

 does not readily lodge or twist. The heads measure from 8 to 10J^ inches, and 

 the kernels are of immense size, thick, plump and heavy; it is undoubtedly the 

 heaviest cropping domestic white Oat ever offered. 



Planted alongside some of the older varieties, it usually yields more than 

 double the number of bushels per acre of any of the other sorts. 



Price, peck, 90c; bushel of 32 lbs., $2.50; 10-bushel lots, per bushel, $2.40; 

 100-bushel lots, per bushel, $2.30. 



STORM KING 



This is a side oat. The true white tartarian. The average 

 weight of the grain is 40 lbs. Sow 3 bushels per acre. 



Price, peck, 90c; bushel of 32 lbs., $2.50; 10-bushel lots, 

 per bushel, $2.40; 100-bushel lots, per bushel, $2.30. 



COW PEAS ( c =o) A S °Y or SOJA BEANS 



\ / A ereat Soil Lnncher. gathering nitrocrpn from tY 



Cow Peas are the great leguminous crop of our Southern States, where 



they play the same important role in rotation farming that Clovers and 



Canada Peas do in the North 



Cow Peas are more tender than Canada or Field Peas and should not be sown 

 until Corn-planting time. Cow Peas, being of very rapid growth during the warm 

 weather, can be sown as late as the middle of July with reasonable assurance of a 

 profitable crop, either for harvesting or plowing under. 



The early varieties are quite extensively and successfully grown for forage and 

 soiling as far north as Massachusetts, but so far north the crop may not ripen 

 seeds. As a soil renovator and enricher Cow Peas are very valuable, as they collect 

 nitrogen from the air in large quantities and fix it in the soil, thus adding this 

 expensive element of fertilizer to the land without cost, and leaving it richer and 

 in better condition for the future crop. Cow Peas grow on all soils from the stiffest 

 clays to porous sands, barren uplands and alluvial bottoms. The feeding value is 

 high, whether as green forage, cured hay or silage, being especially rich in blood, 

 bone and muscle-forming material. For green-manuring clay land, the crop 

 should be turned under green. On sandy soil, already too light, the vines should 

 decay on the surface and then be turned under. Sow 100 lbs. per acre. 



BLACK EYE COW PEAS. A popular and productive early sort. Very much 

 in demand. 



Price, lb., 30c; 10 lbs., $2.00; 50 lbs., $4.50; 100 lbs., $8.00. 



NEW ERA COW PEAS. A new, extra-early variety, earlier than the Black 

 Eye, maturing in about 60 days, specially adapted for planting north. 

 Price, lb., 30c; 10 lbs., $2.00; 50 lbs., $4.50; 100 lbs., $8.00. 



CANADA FIELD PEAS 



There is no crop of greater value than Field Peas. Whether for fodder, in mix- 

 ture with Oats, sown at the rate of 100 lbs. of Peas and 1 bushel of Oats per acre, 

 or the Peas sown alone at the rate of ISO lbs. per acre for plowing under. Peas 

 have the power of extracting nitrogen from the air and fixing it in the soil. Sown 

 alone for fodder or in combination with Oats for hay, or as a crop to plow under 

 for green manure, they are unsurpassed. 



Price, lb., 30c; 10 lbs., $2.00; 50 lbs., $4.50; 100 lbs., $8.00. 



For Greater Yields Treat All 



Cereal Seed With 



New Improved "Ceresan" 



To control destructive smuts; improve your yield of OATS, 

 WHEAT and BARLEY. Recommended by N. Y. STATE Colleges. 

 1 pound treats 32 Bushels. 

 Price, 1 lb., 75c; 5 lbs., $3.25. 



A great Soil Enricher, gathering nitrogen from the air. 

 Produces enormous crops as far North as Canada. Ripen- 

 ing Seed as far North as Massachusetts. Especially Valuable 

 (in combination with Japanese Millet and Fodder Corn) 

 for Ensilage, supplying the albuminoids or flesh-forming 

 food. 



Planted in rows 2J^ feet apart, 6 to 8 plants to the foot of row, 

 requiring 50 pounds per acre, they yield 15 to 20 tons per acre of fod- 

 der, very rich in flesh formers. For green feed, use from time of blossom- 

 ing till pods are well filled; for the silo, cut as soon as most of the pods 

 are well filled, and cut into J^-inch to 2J^-inch lengths. 



EARLY WILSON BLACK. This variety has proved its earliness 

 and value in the Northern States by not only producing large fodder 

 crops, but ripening the seed as far north as Massachusetts. The grain 

 is the richest vegetable substance known, and when gound and fed to 

 cattle gives a milk richer and better than if fed other meal. 



Price, lb., 30c; 10 lbs., $1.75; 50 lbs., $4.50; 100 lbs., $7.50. 



MAMMOTH YELLOW. This variety was developed and has been 

 tested in the East and South with very satisfactory results. Grows well 

 on very poor soils, easily reaching a height of three feet in eight weeks 

 after sowing, in the latitude of New York. This is an excellent variety 

 for green manuring, and will also make good hay and ensilage. Under 

 ordinary growing conditions, the beans will mature well before frost 

 sets in. Plant 50 pounds to the acre. 



Price, lb., "30c; 10 lbs., $1.7.5; 50 lbs., $4.50; 100 lbs., $7.50.
