SCHELL’S QUALITY FARM SEEDS 
The Great Importance of Sowing Good Seed 
I cannot emphasize this too strongly. We could sell you seeds of any kind at' just as 
low prices as you may be quoted elsewhere if we were willing to give you that grade of 
seed (which you will recall you always expect to be the best), but we are not willing, and 
would rather lose your order than supply you with any but the best. That is why 
we offer only one grade of all seeds, and that is our own Fancy Quality Grade, 
the purest and best in the land. Surely you see the wisdom of depending upon us for your seeds, for your 
profit is in the size and quality of your crops which depend on the quality of the seed you sow. The best of 
everything, seeds included, always costs a little more. 
Regarding Prices on All Clovers, Grasses, and Other Farm Seeds 
_ Last year we did not quote prices on Field Seeds in our Catalogue but requested our customers to write for 
prices delivered to their station. As many of you preferred to have prices at once, so you could order promptly 
and with your order for vegetable seeds, we therefore are giving you present lowest prices here at our store. If 
sent by Freight or Express you, please, will pay the small Freight or Express charge, except where postpaid prices 
are given. Prices on all Field Seeds are subject to change with the market. 
SEED OATS 
Sow Schell's “Big Yielder” Seed Oats 
Pennsylvania’s Leading Oats. The Most Popular Oats in the 
State. Prices Lowest in Many Years! 
Sow Schell’s “Big Yielder” Seed Oats this year 
and you may get the biggest and best crop of Oats you 
ever grew. 
There is just one reason why we continue to sell 
thousands of bushels of our Schell’s “Big Yielder” 
Seed Oats, and that is because of its high standard 
of quality and its tremendous yield. This makes our 
customers come back for more when they want new 
“blood”—and when a neighboring farmer sees a crop 
of it he wants it also. 
Schell’s “Big Yielder” Oats has been making 70 
to 80 bushels to the acre for our customers on the 
same soil and under the same conditions that they got 
40 bushels from the old varieties. 
Schell’s “Big Yielder” Oats has outyielded 
every other variety of tree or spreading Oats 
tested with it. With the yield you get quality; it is 
an unusually heavy-bodied Oats, big, plump, 
meaty grains, with very little chaff. It is a spreading 
or “tree” Oats; the straw is very strong, practically 
lodge-proof and averages 4 to 5 feet in height. A 
measured bushel will weigh from 42 to 45 pounds. Sow 
2K bushels to the acre. A 20-acre field may give you 
many more dollars than ordinary Oats by increasing 
your yield 20 to 40 bushels more per acre. Good Seed 
Oats of high germination is very important always in 
order to produce the largest crop of the best quality for 
you. Take no chance—order Schell’s “Big Yielder” 
which is sold to you on a positive guarantee that the 
seed will meet with your approval when received and 
you may keep it a week and test it if you wish. If it is 
not all we say, you may return it at our expense and 
we will refund the amount you have paid. 1 to 9 bus., 
$1.10 per bus.; 10 to 24 bus., $1.05 per bus.; 
25 to 50 bus. or more, $1 per bus. here, freight not 
prepaid. 
Schell’s Storm King Seed Oats 
The Big Side Oats 
Storm King is “side” Oats. It derives its name from 
the strength of the straw, which often measures 4K to 
S l /2 feet in height. It stands the most severe winds 
without lodging. The heads are enormous and the 
grains are very large. We have had record yields from 
Storm King. I urge all who desire a larger crop of 
largest Oats and who prefer “side” Oats, to send now 
while prices are so low. Price, lowest for many 
years: 1 to 9 bus., $1.10 per bus.; 10 to 24 bus., $1.05 
per bus.; 25 to 50 bus. or more, $1 per bus. here, 
freight not prepaid. 
Government report gives Oats crop, 1933, smallest on 
record. Better order your supply of good seed at once. 
Mr. George R. Helman, Pa., says: “Seven acres of 
home-grown Oats averaged 2 '/* loads, while your seed 
gave me 3K loads on only 4 acres. It certainly pays to 
sow good seed.” 
ALFALFA

This valuable crop is now so generally raised and 
every farmer is so thoroughly acquainted with its
