We received many letters telling us of large yields of Gopher—we have room for only the one. 
Oct. 10, 1935. 
Dear Sirs; 
About four or five years ago I sent to you for some Gopher Seed Oats. This year I threshed seven 
hundred and fifty bushels off eight acres government measure. About two weeks after crop was cut 
I hauled it in the barn. As a result the oats are light in color and heavy in quality. My oats crop 
was the best yielding of any the neighbors and many as they passed the field said it was the nicest 
looking field of oats they had ever seen.

fine with yield of above 60 bu. per acre. It has a good stiff straw which prevents lodging except in 
extreme cases. The grain is large and plump. Hull is thin and grinds easily. This is a year when every 
effort should be made to insure a heavy crop. We have priced our oats low to give you every advantage 
possible. Your increased yield will pay you many times for having used Wayne seed. Order as soon as 
you know your requirements as our stock of good seed is not large. Price, per bu., $1.00; 10 bu. lots, 90c
