SchelTs Storm King Seed Oats

Storm King is “side” Oats. It derives its name from the 
strength of the straw, which often measures 4K to 5M 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 for our Storm King. Price, lowest lor many years:

frost is past and when the ground is thoroughly warm. The
