Royal Banner Oat 
A New Cross-Bred, White 
Branch Oat of finest quality 
and an enormous yielder. 
This splendid new oat is the result of a direct cross between Prince Royal Oats and a selected strain of 
American Banner, hence the name ROYAL BANNER. On both sides, the parent stock of the new ROYAL BANNER 
Oats, were in their time considered exceptionally flood in quality and large yielders. To be sure of pure stock it is 
necessary to grow each grain separately where cross pollenizing has been done and the ROYAL BANNER represents 
6 years of careful watching and developing, since we made the cross which resulted in this new oat, and our 
stock of these oats is all from one single grain of oats as a beginning.

3S DAYS AFTER SOWING 
this photograph of our 36 acre field of ROYAL BANNER OAT was taken. Note the remarkable strong, thrifty growth of these 
oats, completely covering the ground. A single stool selected in the center of the field where the writer stood contained 16 stalks. 
This strong stooling quality is the necessary foundation for a BIG YIELD. 
78 DAYS AFTER SOWING 
Just a few days before cutting, this photograph was taken. The straw stood perfectly erect and while the growth was 
enormous there was not a lodged spot in the entire field. The heads were long, well balanced and as the wind made the crop 
wave it would surely make you think it was an OCEAN OF OATS. 
This is the kind of crop to grow for large profits.
