“SWEDISH SELECT” OATS 
Year in and year out a favorite of thousands of farmers—because 
it is a proved money-maker. We sell more bushels of this variety 
than any other kind. It can be grown successfully in almost every 
section where oats can be grown commercially. If you want a 
branching variety, a well-tried reliable oats, get Swedish Select re¬ 
gardless of the acreage that you want to put it on. 
Swedish Select was introduced to this country from Russia by the 
U. S. Department of Agriculture in 1899. It was an instant favor¬ 
ite because of its extra heavy yields and many desirable characteris¬ 
tics. It is early. It has a stiff straw and is branching. This is an 
improved variety and under rigid tests at the Wisconsin Experiment 
Station it showed 8y 2 bushels per acre greater yield than other 
varieties over a 10-year average. 
Sow Swedish Select three bushels to the acre. The quality is as 
good as was made this year. Germination tests almost perfect.

SOY BEANS 
This is going to be a Soy Bean year. Last year’s great drought 
greatly cut down the production of the regular forage crop seeds, 
such as the Millets, Sudan, Sorghum, etc. With these crops so 
short and so many sections so short of hay as they are, we prophesy 
there will be a great swing to Soy Beans. They will take care of 
most any such emergency. 
Inoculate your Soy Beans properly and they will build up your 
soil for you . . . because they will then put into the soil more than 
they take out. They are great gatherers of nitrogen and nitrogen 
increases the fertility of your soil. Successful farmers have proven 
that it pays to inoculate their Soy Beans seed in order to get best 
results. 
PLANT THEM ANYWHERE 
Plant Soy Beans on any kind of soil, sweet or sour. If your soil 
is sweet the inoculating bacteria will work rapidly for you. If your 
soil is sour, however, add lime in order to get the best results. 
THEY FIGHT WEEDS—GROW FAST 
Soy Beans are disease free . . . exceptionally hardy. Stand dry 
weather or wet weather. Plant them when the ground is good and 
warm . . . not until after corn planting time.

28 “ The ‘Wilson Black’ soy beans were very satisfac¬ 
tory. They grew tall and free from weeds and 
gave no undue trouble in curing. In my opinion they 
return more roughage than most other seeds I have tried. 
The cattle relish them and there is little or no waste of 
stems. They also leave the soil in fine shape.” 
Martin Z. Miller, 
Bainbridge, Pa. 
★ 29 “i never grew soy beans before last year. The 
Black Wilson I bought of you last year did very 
well. I found one plant that was 9 ft. 2 in. long includ¬ 
ing the top leaves. The average height was about 40 in. 
and produced a nice lot of hay. Expect to seed some 
again this year as they certainly laid the Canada thistle 
low.”

Shadeland Victory Oats from 
you last spring and threshed 389 
bushels from 6 acres. We consider 
this a good yield.” (Fall, 1934.)

★ 32 “The seed oats that I got from 
you were splendid. They aver¬ 
aged about 50 bushels to the acre. I 
was more than pleased with results.” 
(Sept., 1934.)
