“HUMCO” Appier 294-60 
STRAlN-2 
A FINE STRAIN OF APPLER OATS 
This strain of oats just six years from its parent 
plant and a very high yielder. 
ITS CHARACTERS: 
1. Very uniform. 
2. Heavy production (will average 10 bus. per acre 
more than best Fulghum). 
3. Eight days later than regular Fulghum. 
4. High per cent grain to straw (45-50%). 
5. Smut resistant. 
6. Cold resistant. 
This oat in test with other smut resistant varieties, 
though heavily inoculated with smut spores, developed 
no smut at all. Appier oats have always been highly 
resistant to oat smut. 
We believe this to be one of the finest strain of 
Pedigreed Appier Oats being offered. It is very 
much superior to any strain we have offered in the 
past. 
In spite of severe cold winter of 1934, this oat stood 
up 90% good, better than any other oat tested. This 
record made in spite of planting first week in De¬ 
cember, 1933, which is late planting for Appier oats. 
Mr. John H. Devine, of Tallulah, La., in letter to 
us of July 2, 1936, says: “The Appier oats purchased 
from you the past year had an average yield of 95 
bushels per acre, where we used 150 lbs. nitrate per 
acre. Where no nitrate was used 55 bushels per acre.” 
He used our Appier 294-60—Strain 2.
