Clean, Heavy-Yielding Varieties 
Hoffman’s 
SEED OATS 
PLANT ONLY GOOD SEED OATS! 
Be satisfied with nothing but the very 
best; dry, sound, tested seed—from heavy 
crops! Cheap, unknown oats can’t make top 
yields! The small extra cost of real seed 
will soon be forgotten—and at harvest time 
you’ll thank us for urging you to plant this 
fine, heavy-yielding seed! 
"SHADELAND VICTORY" OATS 
This fine variety is making many new 
friends. Many letters of praise came from 
customers last year. Here’s the way they 
read (each line from a different letter) : 
"Your Shod eland Victory Oats did fine 
for me.” ... "I am proud of my crop of 
Victory Oats.” . . . "That Victory Oats was 
the finest I ever saw.” . . . "Your Shadeland 
Victory Oats was fine. We had real storm 
last summer, and it stood up well, and 
yielded a lot better than my other oats.” 
This year’s seed is of extra-fine quality. 
Big, plump, white grains — very heavy . . . 
“This spring I bought 
Shadeland Victory Oats and 
it yielded from 75 to 80 
bushels of measured oats to 
the acre. I like it very 
much.” — Daniel Godfrey, 
York, Pa. 
“I believe your Shadeland 
Victory to be the best oats 
I have sown in the past 25 
years.”— Milton M. Sher¬ 
man, N. Attleboro, Mass. 
“Your Shadeland Victory 
produced one of the best 
fields of oats I have ever 
seen. Well headed out so as 
to make a heavy yield of 
grain with an extraordinarily 
long and heavy straw.”— 
E. W. Hunt, Lambertville, 
N. J.
