Cereals is carried out. 
CARTERS IMPROVED CEREALS. 
(Ireat as is the care we expend in the imjtfovenient of all farm seeds, the success which has attended 
our efforts to improve standard types of cereals is only the result of many years’ continuous attentions and 
personal supervision in the selection, growing, and cleaning of our stocks. 
Amongst the new or improved cereals introduced during the past quarter of a century, none have 
acquired more lasting or popular commendation than those associated with our name ; Carters Rsd 
and White Stand Up Wheat, Carters Prize Prolific and Goldthorpe Barley, 
together with Carters Cluster Oats, are now recognised standard varieties throughout the workl, 
as they constitute the highest degree of superiority to which the respective types can be brought. 
Foreign and Colonial Governments have long realised this superiority of our cereals, and each year 
we export to foreign corn-growing centres large quantities of our original stocks for the purpose of 
regenerating local varieties with our pedigree strains. 
Besides rigorously keeping our existing varieties true and pure, we are constantly on the look-out for 
better sorts which may possess some special merit or characteristic to justify their being grown by the 
public. 
h'or this purpose we make comparatixe trials of nearly all the different kinds of Wheat, Barley, or 
Oats, and also raise each year a number of experimental crosses or hybrids, which are carefully selected 
should any show a marked advantage. 
This work is in charge of an Exitert Ccrealist, and under his constant supervision all our stocks of 
seed corn are grown, so that any deterioration in type is at once detected. 
Our customers may therefore rely upon our assurance that every variety of Wheat, Barley Oats, or 
other farm seed we catalogue rejtresents the best and most profitable strain, fully worthy to he called 
CARTERS TESTED SEEDS.
