DIBBLE’S 
Heavyweight Oats 
The Heaviest American Oat Grown 
While in search of new varieties of Oats of value in the 
Northwest, where the best Oats are grown, we found, in 
Wyoming, several fields of a new variety with tall, stiff 
straw standing shoulder high and the heaviest American 
Oat grown. When these fields were threshed, the yield 
was over 100 bushels per acre and the weight over 45 
pounds per measured bushel of pure white, thin-hulled 
grain. We purchased the entire lot, and from this source 
secured our stock seed of this, in our opinion, the heaviest 
and most productive American Oat. This was some twenty 
years ago. During that time we have distributed over 
600,000 bushels to our customers, and, wherever grown, 
it has given wonderful yields in comparison with other 
varieties grown alongside: Around 100 bushels to the 
acre in New Jersey; 117 bushels in New' England; in New 
York, on large areas, 80, 82, 87, 89, 92, and up to 106 
bushels, where the average yield is 30 bushels; and in 
Ohio, crops averaging “just twice” the yield of common 
Oats have been reported to us by our customers. 
We were fortunate in having our Oats grown in a locality 
w'here weather conditions were favorable for growth and 
harvesting. Therefore we have an excellent quality to 
offer our customers. In many sections of the country 
unfavorable weather conditions caused small yields of very 
light Oats that are not fit for seed. 
Dibble’s Heavyweight Oats have made wonderful yields 
for a large number of our customers in many states. We 
read of remarkable records and big yields of Oats in the 
western states, under irrigation, but right here, in the 
East, Dibble’s Heavyweight Oats have produced record- 
breaking crops. Average weight 40 lbs. per measured 
bushel. 
At Harvest-time 
Free 
DIBBLE’S HEAVYWEIGHT OATS 
are sold subject to the following guarantee 
We guarantee our Seed Oats thoroughly recleaned by the best mills known to 
the trade, and in first-class condition for sowing. Keep our Seed Oats ten days, 
test them, and if not entirely satisfactory in every way, return them at once and 
get your money back. 
We use all reasonable care in packing and sending out our Seed Oats, but as 
so many circumstances may arise after they leave our possession, over which we 
have no control, we do not guarantee, nor will we be responsible for the crop 
grown from any of our seeds. 
Owing to the extra-heavy weight of these Oats, not less than 3 bushels should 
be sown per acre. For prices, see special Price-List. 
I am so well pleased with the quality 
of the Seed Oats, I am sending you an 
order for 10 more bushels.—L. B. 
Chappee, Angelica, N. Y., April 16, 1934. 
Kindly send me 40 bushels Heavy¬ 
weight Seed Oats. I have had these Oats 
from you several times and they have 
always given satisfaction.—E. C. Buzzell, 
Fryeburg, Maine, April 15, 1934. 
I planted your Heavyweight Oats 2 
years ago and had the best turn-out I ever 
had. It was great.—A. A. Bartels, 
Wilmington, Del., February 27, 1935. 
The Heavyweight Oats I had from you 
outyielded mine 3 to 1 last year. I have 
bought Potatoes from you for 40 years 
and have always been pleased with re¬ 
sults. —L. M. Sulinbarger, Howard, Pa. 
Last spring I bought 15 bushels of 
Heavyweight Oats from you. We got 325 
bushels from 5 acres. We lost a lot of 
Oats during the hailstorm but we got a 
fine crop, better than other farmers.— 
Richard C. Friend, Volant, Pa., Feb¬ 
ruary 14, 1935. 
Last year I ordered 40 bushels of 
Heavyweight Seed Oats from you and 
was very well pleased with them, so am 
ordering all my grass seed from you this 
year.— George H. Davis, Le Raysville, 
Pa., April 16, 1935.
