“PATTERSON” OATS 
Since we first offered ‘‘Patterson’’—after its development at 
Penn State—it has been very successfully tried throughout the 
state. And now we find many farmers won’t grow any other 
kind. Some experimental plantings back up their opinion by 
showing it to be a yield leader. One 14-year test placed it first 
with an average of 63.9 bushels per acre. This oats is a mid-sea- 
son ripener. Straw is tall and stiff. Grain is light yellow, and 
though not extra heavy it is almost all inside kernel. If you 
want a reliable oats, pick this and count on us for really good 
seed. 
*““SHADELAND ECLIPSE”? OATS 
(Certified ) 
There’s 25 years of performance behind this oats—big crops, 
often over 90 bushels per acre. Exactly what you want if you 
like “side-type”’ oats. It grows vigorously, matures early, grows 
large heads that fill out evenly. Stands up well. Straw is stiff 
and of good length. This year’s seed is heavy, plump, thin- 
hulled, free from any great admixture of other oats. Very 
clean. Order at once; supply extremely limited. 
SILVER MINE TYPE OATS 
For those who want planting oats at a little above the cost 
of feed oats. Fine for feeding in the sheaf, or grown with 
Canada Peas for early green feed. Branching type, medium 
early, clean, sound, free from weeds. Strong growth. 
Here are some tips on keeping hens comfortable during hot 
weather: 
1. Sprinkle the litter with cool water. 
2. Remove the windows from the south wall and open up 
as many air vents as possible on the back wall. 
3. Give the roof a coat of white paint. Dark hues absorb 
heat while light colors reflect it. 
4. Provide more roosts if there is any possibility of 
crowding. 
5. Keep a constant check on the water supply. A few hours 
without water may cause all sorts of trouble.

“IT had very good success 
with your Ceresan last year. 
Your Shadeland oats did bet- 
ter for me than my other 
oats.’"—John W. Helmuth, 
Beach City, Ohio. 
“Had a splendid yield of 
Swedish Select oats. 68 bush- 
els per acre.’—Raymond M. 
Jackson, Cochranville, Pa. 
“Here is my order for ‘G 7’ 
round grains. The corn I got 
from you last spring yielded 
better than any corn I ever 
planted. I got twice as much 
corn from the same piece 
with the “G 7’ than I ever got 
with our own corn.”—Harold 
Shaffer, Boswell, Pa. 
WARM WATER 
COWS 
time I eat dry 
I am _ reminded 
of how much a cow on dry 
alfalfa needs frequent 
drinks,” said Elmer 
Wheeler of Indiana Co. So 
he put more drinking cups 
in his dairy barn, so his 
cows could drink as often 
as they pleased. Then he 
piped warmed water from 
his basement to the barn. 
He said he knows it takes 
feed to warm cold water. 
and that a cow will drink 
a larger amount if the 
chill is removed.
