FOR SPRING SOWING. 
A few years ago a customer in New Zealand sent us a 
small sample of an exceptionally handsome and heavy Oat. 
We have grown it for several years, and in point of yield 
and beauty it certainly surpasses any American Oat, It is 
also extremely early in ripening. We have now a stock 
sufficient for offering it. It is of stout, rather short growth, 
not subject to “lodging,” and so early that it escapes severe 
droughts, therefore assuring a large crop every year. The 
grain is plump, heavy and exceedingly handsome. We are 
satisfied that it is by all odds the most valuable Oat ever 
brought into the country. Pkt., 10c.; lb., 40c.; 3 lbs., $ 1 . 00 , 
postpaid. By express or freight, peck, $1.50; bushel, $4.00; 
2 bushels for $7.00. 
Winter Tnrf Oat- 
FOR FALL SOWING. 
The greatest of all forage for winter pasture and for 
heavy crops of grain. 
A hardy, robust winter Oat for fall sowing is indeed a 
novelty worthy the attention of every farmer in the land. 
Itlis exceedingly heavy and enormously productive, as many 
as 150 strong stems having been counted growing from one 
stool and bearing 6,342 grains, all from one seed. Sow as you 
would winter wheat or rye, the latter part of August or in 
September, and it will afford the finest winter pasture which 
it is possible to have, and yet give an enormous crop of 
grain, which ripens early, before- it can be injured by dry 
weather. The straw grows to the height of four or five feet, 
with enormous heads of grain a foot in length. Grain large, 
plump, and exceedingly heavy. We believe it will yield 
twice as much to the acre as any other Oat, and that it will 
supersede all other kinds. Introduced by us a few years ago 
and has become famous. Price, per pkt., 10c.; lb., 30c.; 3 lbs., 
75c., by mail, postpaid; $1.00 per pk. ; $ 3.00 per bus., by ex¬ 
press or freight.
