Bumper Crop Oats 
Bumi^er Crop Oats stands up year after year on soils of all kinds without crinkling, 
breaking or falling — even under conditions when other good oats grown side by side 
were flat on the ground and impossible to cut. The chaff of 
Bumper Oats protects the grain in such a manner that the 
oats are least stained. Though it does not shell easily, it 
threshes clean and easily. The heads are extremely large, 
10 to 14 inches in length. The formation of the heads is 
such that the variety cannot be classed either as a side oats 
or a branching variety. There are no branches, the seeds 
being all formed along the main stem but unlike the side oats, 
the grain surrounds the stem. Examination of photographs 
reproduced on these pages will give some idea of the build 
of Bumper Crop Oats heads. We know of nothing else that 
appears quite as beautiful or as bounteous as a cluster of 
Bumper Oats. It is a great stooler, unequalled for its rugged 
heartiness. We pride ourselves on being able to offer this 
rare new variety and believe it will be a very valuable intro- 
duction on the farms of our customers.

Crop Oats will be sold to any one customer. We want to
