HENDERSON'S IMPORTED 



Clydesdale Oats 



A Variety of White Oats of Extraordinary Weight, 



Earliness and Productiveness, the Natural 



Weight of Which is 50 Lbs. to the Bushel 



Since we introduced this Grand Oat it has steadily and deservedly 

 gained in popularitv, until today it is the most popular High-Grade 

 White Oat in the United States. 



The climate of America is unsuited to the production and main- 

 tenance of the highest grade of oats, and unless a heavy imported 

 (British) oat be used for seed purposes at least every second or third 

 year, they become light, "chaffy," inferior in quality and un- 

 profitable. The ultimate financial benefit accruing to the American 

 farmers by the annual distribution of several thousand bushels of 

 Henderson's Clydesdale Oats cannot be overestimated. These oats 

 weigh naturally about 50 lbs. per measured bushel, and they deter- 

 iorate in weight only from three to four lbs. each year they are grown 

 here, so that the produce is worth for seed purposes at leastjdouble the 

 market value of ordinary oats. 



No other oat can show such a record — 75 to 100 bushels per acre, 

 and double the usual quantity of straw. Another most important 

 advantage of Henderson's Clydesdale Oats to the farmer is thejfaet 

 that they have been thoroughly cleaned by the latest and most 

 improved machinery, and are absolutely free from foreign and weed 

 seeds. Sow 3 bushels per acre. (.See engraving) 



PRICE, Henderson's Clydesdale Oats, per peck $1.15 



Per Standard bushel of 32 lbs 4.00 



"I purchased from you last spring 15 bushels of Imported Clydesdale 

 Oats which I sowed on four and four-fifths acres and harvested 430 

 bushels of beautiful oats."

HENDERSON'S 



American- Grown 



CLYDESDALE OATS 



In order to give Henderson's Clydesdale a still wider distribution 

 and make their value universally known, and to enable us to offer 

 them at a price within the reach of every farmer, we have had 

 several thousand bushels specially grown for us in Northern New 

 York during the past year. These we have thoroughly recleaned, and 

 are extra choice and heavy, free from all foul seeds and light and 

 imperfect grains. We are within the mark when we say that these 

 oats will yield under ordinary cultivation 70 to SO bushels per acre, 

 and under favorable circumstances 100 bushels per acre can reason- 

 ably be expected. Sow 3 bushels per acre. 



Price (American grown), 80c per peck, $2.40 per standard bushel 

 of 32 lbs.; 10 bushel lots, $2.30 per bushel; 100-bushel lots, $2.20 per 

 bushel. 



Imported Storm King Oats 



We have pleasure in recommending this true White Tartarian or Side Oat. It is a heavy cropper; the 

 grain is short, plump, thin-skinned and of the highest feeding value and the straw, as its name implies, is 

 very strong and stiff, enabling it to resist the severest weather. The weight of the grain per measured 

 bushel is about 46 lbs. The past year's experience has fully borne out our good opinion of "Storm King." 

 Wherever grown the yield of both grain and straw was satisfactory. We advise every grower of Oats to 

 try this variety. Sow 3 bushels per acre. 



Price, Storm King Oats, per peck $1.15 



Per Standard Bushel of 32 lbs 4.00 



Long's White Tartar Oats 



THE IDEAL SIDE OAT FOR THE AMERICAN FARMER 

 The earliest, heaviest and most prolific domestic-grown Side Oat in cultivation. It is suitable for all 

 soils; of robust and vigorous constitution, is remarkable 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 10! 2 inches, and 

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

 white Oat ever offered. 



Its extreme earliness, great length and strength of straw, thick, plump grains and the heavy Welds it is 

 capable of producing give Long's White Tartar all the necessary qualifications which go to make an ideal 

 Oat. Sow 3 bushels per acre. 



PRICE, Long's White Tartar Oats, per peck $0.75 



Per Standard bushel of 32 lbs 2.20 



10-bushel lots and upward, per bushel 2.10 



100-bushel lots, per bushel 2.00 



Early Newmarket Oats 



A grand new breed of English pedigree Oats of wonderfully vigorous growth, producing very early a heavy 

 crop of unusually large, plump Oats, remarkable for their thinness of husk, which greatly adds to their 

 feeding value. The straw is tall and strong, withstanding unfavorable weather well, and it is practically 

 immune from rust (.see engraving). Sow 3 bushels per acre. 



PRICE, Early Newmarket Oats, per peck $0.80 



Per Standard Bushel of 32 lbs 2.40 



10-bushel lots and upward, per bushel 2.30
