CONDON'S "Pedigreed" SEED OATS 
Our Seed Oats are 
selected with the 
same care as our 
seed corn or any 
of our farm seeds. 
It is just as 
important. 
738 Improved Swedish Select 
Considered by many to be the most valuable oats 
raised in the Northwest today. It is known under other 
names, such as King Oscar, Wisconsin No. i, etc This 
was originally qtjMte a late oat made early hy growing 
it In the hish altitude in which it was developed It 
possesses striking features, the grain is short, plumn 
white, and very heavy, under favorable conditions aver- 
aging about 40 pounds to the measured bushel. Owin°- 
to its great root development it stands very hieh for 
its drought resisting qualities. At the Wisconsin Kx- 
periment Station it has stood iit the head of the list for 
several years, having been distributed by that statiort 
as Wisconsin No. 4. Prof. Moore of Wisconsin says of 
the Swedish Oat, "The most satisfactory of all." Prof. 
Carleton of U. S. Department of Agriculture says- "Prob- 
ably the best American Oat." Prof. Shepard of the 
South Dakota Station says, "They are the best drought resisters 
of all our new plants." 
The Swedish Oat has been 
recommended by experiment 
station and others for ail soils. 
We are not inclined to agree 
in this. Its habit of growth is 
so vigorous that on heavy soils 
It Is likely to lodge. Our seed is 
of the genuine parent, highly 
perfected to insure you most 
bountiful harvest. Order early 
please. Stock limited. % lb., Vi

737 White Kherson 
One of the earliest oats in cul- 
tivation. It was introduced by the 
Experiment Station of Iowa, and 
has- proved a success in that state, 
being naturally adapted to sections 
that are subject to drought. It 
is a vigorous but not rank grower, 
producing shorter straw than oth- 
er varieties, with branching heads 
and very broad leaves. The ber- 
ries are white in color, small, but 
numerous, and have a very thin 
hull. This oats usually weighs 
well per bushel, and in this re- 
spect, as well as in productiveness, 
it is one of the best of the early 
varieties. 
Kherson surpassed thera all for 
an early "Sure Cropper." This is 
the Bo.<«s Oat for seeding with Al- 
falfa or Sweet Clover. Our seed is 
Pure and extra recleaned. Vz lb.,

739 Silver Mine 
This oat has made for Itself a 
reputation as an extraordinary 
heavy and reliable yielder. It i." 
very hardy and prolific and yields 
beautiful white kernels, which are 
especially desired for the manu- 
facture of rolled oats. Oatmeal is 
becoming as staple in the United 
States as it is in Scotland and our 
mills are handicapped by their in- 
ability to obtain good oats. 
The heads are very large in pro- 
portion to its stiff, bright, clean 
straw. The spangle top heads, 
„„ ,»,. ,.. ... although long, are borne low down 
on the stalk, which seems to prevent lodging. >/» ib., 10 cts.i lb., 18 cts.i
