bulletin, said of this variety: "It has been shown that the ten-year 
average yield of this oats at the Wisconsin Experiment Station was 
eight and one-half bushels per acre greater than other varieties.” 
One characteristic of the "Swedish Select” is its great root 
development. This gives it power to go through with big yields 
on almost any kind of soil or under varied conditions. Customers 
having high, dry situations or clay loam soils on which other 
varieties did not succeed will do well to sow this one. 
"Swedish Select” is grown with success in almost every section 
where oats is grown on a commercial scale. Farmers who want a 
branching variety of a well tried, reliable kind can safely put their 
trust in "Swedish Select” regardless of the acreage they want to 
put out. We advise sowing 3 bushels per acre. Quality is good— 
germination tests almost perfect. This year’s crop is not quite as 
bright in color as usual, but has good weight, is thoroughly clear, 
and is strictly sound tested seed that will give a good account of 
itself for you. See Price List. 
“30 acres averaged 70 bu. per acre of your Swedish 
Select Oats.”

“The Victory Oats I received from you this spring 
produced 93 bu. per acre. A very unusual yield for 
this locality.”

“SILVER MINE” SEED OATS 
A Good old standby. Early, hardy and prolific. Plant "Silver 
Mine.” Mix with Canada Peas and get an early crop of feed. If 
you feed oats in the sheaf (straw included) you will like "Silver 
Mine” because of its soft hull, large grains and clean straw. 
Heads are of the tree or "Sprangle” type, growing long and start¬ 
ing low down on the stalk. 
“I sowed your Victory Oats last year and had the 
best yield I ever had. They were great.” 
A. H. Jordan, 
Driftwood, Pa.
