OATS 
It costs a whole lot less per bushel to raise a big crop of oats than it does 
a small one. The difference most often lies in the seed oats used. The 
oats we offer are pure, clean, high yielding seed of strong germination. 
LENROC. Certified. A New Heavy Yielding White Oat. This new 
variety was introduced by the Cornell University Agriculture Experi¬ 
ment Station in 1935 and originated from a cross made in 1918. Over 
an 11 year period (1924-34 incl.) it gave an average yield per acre of 
62.1 bu. or 1.3 bu. higher than Cornellian the next highest yielding sort. 
Lenroc is slightly taller than Cornellian, with white kernels which 
are similar in shape to Cornellian but somewhat larger and plumper. 
The hull is a little heavier but the percentage of meat nearly the same. 
It has proved equal or better in production than Cornellian and is 
superior in color because of the white kernels. Tests made in six counties 
in New York State from 1931-34 inclusive indicate that under most 
conditions it is superior in yield to all varieties tested. 
Certified Seed. Pk. 75c; Single Bu. (32 Lbs.) $2.00; Sack (3 Bu.) $5.25. 
Purchaser pays transportation. Seed crop very short. 
SWEDISH SELECT. This has for years been considered one of the best 
varieties. The heads are clustered but it is not a side oat. The straw is 
medium length and holds up well, even on rich land. The oats ripen 
early and will make good weight, even when sown late. The kernel is 
plump, pure white and with very thin hulls. 
Pk. 45c; Bu. (32 Lbs.) $1.25; Bag of 3 Bu. (96 Lbs.) $3.45; 5 Sacks or 
more at $3.30 per sack. Purchaser pays transportation. 
ITHACAN. Crop failed. 
SPRING WHEAT 
Spring wheat can be raised anywhere in the northeastern states as well 
as in the West. Sow as early as possible. 
Marquis. A very early beardless wheat that succeeds well in the East, 
producing larger yields than any other kind. This is due to its earliness 
and freedom from rust. 
Pk. 90c; Bu. $3.00; 2 Bu. or more $2.75 per Bu. Purchaser pays 
transportation. 
Harvesting Cornellian Oats on Moreton Farm 
CORNELLIAN. Certified. This is a remarkable heavy yielding 
variety and is very largely grown in New York State. The heads are 
large, branching or tree-shaped, and stand up well. The kernels are 
long, rather slender but have very thin hulls so the “meat” is large. The 
color is gray shading to almost brown or black on some kernels. The 
yield is often 60 bu. per acre, on very ordinary land, which is 20 bu. 
more than common kinds produce under the same conditions. 
Our certified seed of this variety is remarkably pure and free from 
mixture. Sample or analysis sent on request. 
Certified Seed. Pk. 65c; Single Bu. (32 Lbs.) $1.75; Sack (3 Bu.) $4.95; 
5 Sacks or more at $4.50 per sack. Purchaser pays transportation. 
WINTER WHEAT 
YORKWIN. (NEW.) Now considered the best white winter wheat grown 
as it is much more resistant to loose smut than Honor. The heads are of 
good size, smooth chaff, and well fdled with kernels of medium hardness 
and are very plump. The yield is high and the milling qualities are very 
good. The yield is much higher than common kinds. 
We will have certified seed of Yorkwin to offer in August. Lowest 
prices will be quoted after harvest. 
Seeds of FORAGE CROPS, COVER CROPS, Etc. 
There are many plants suitable for forage and soiling that should be Prices quoted here are subject to market changes and to our stocks 
better known and grown more than they are. They are of great value being unsold. Purchaser pays transportation, except where quoted 
both for stock feeding and improving worn-out soil. “Transportation paid.” We will quote lowest prices on any seed 
required. 
CANADA FIELD PEAS 
Grown principally for the vines which make hay, equal to the best 
clover hay. Sow with oats and cut when the oats head out, but before the 
grain is ripe. This makes excellent hay for sheep, horses and cows. It is 
as easily cured as clover and will yield large crops. Sow 1)4 bu. of peas 
and 1 bu. of oats per acre. 
Pk. $1.20; Bu. (60 Lbs.) $4.45; Bag (2 Bu.) $8.70. Price for larger lots 
will be quoted by letter at any time. 
COW PEAS 
WHIPPOORWILL. This is the most popular variety, and is really a 
bean. It is used for both hay and plowing under. It grows very rapidly 
and matures early so is valuable for the North. The upright vines are 
not coarse so make excellent hay. Sow in June and the crop can be cut 
in August. Use about 1 bushel of seed per acre in drills 28 inches apart. 
For hay or plowing under, broadcast 1)4 bushels per acre. 
Qt. (2 Lbs.) 30c transportation paid. Not paid: Pk. $1.00; Bu. (60 
Lbs.) $3.35; 2 Bu. or more at $3.25 per Bu. Subject to market changes. 
Sudan Grass 
MILLET 
JAPANESE. One #f the largest millets. Very large crops can be 
raised with this variety, nearly double that of common millet. The hay 
is relished by horses, cows and sheep. Even when allowed to ripen its 
seed and threshed out, the hay is readily eaten by stock, so that there is 
no waste. 
Sow about the same time corn is planted. It is usually sown broad¬ 
cast. Cut when it heads out, and before the seed ripens. Does best on 
sandy loam or medium light soil. 
Pk. 60c; Bu. (35 Lbs.) $1.85; Sack (2 Bu.) $3.50. 
Golden Millet. Makes a good heavy growth of hay suitable for cattle. 
2)4 feet high, has large yellow and brown seed heads. Sow in July for 
fall crop. 
Pk. $1.00; Bu. (50 Lbs.) $3.60; Sack (2 Bu.) $7.00. 
Hungarian. Matures a week or so earlier than Golden Miller, and 
makes fine quality hay. Grows 2 feet tall. The heads are brown. 
Pk. $1.10; Bu. (48 Lbs.) $3.70; Sack (2 Bu.) $7.50. 
SUDAN GRASS 
A Wonderful Forage Plant. Sudan grass succeeds well on dry soil 
where other millets would not amount to anything. Immense yields of 
excellent hay are obtained, especially when the seed is sown quite early 
and two cuttings are made. If left to mature it grows 5 to 6 ft. tall and 
makes excellent ensilage. Cows, horses and sheep eat it readily and eat 
it up clean. Sow broadcast or drill in rows 20 to 24 inches apart about 
the time corn is planted in your locality and cultivate two or three 
times. 
It can be sown as late as July but it will only give one cutting. 
Lb. 20c; 5 Lbs. 75c transportation paid. Not paid: 25 Lbs. $2.00; 
100 Lbs. $7.50; 50 Lbs. or more will be supplied at the 100 Lb. price.

that tested seeds proved more satisfactory both for home and market gardenring. Mrs.
