MODERN OATS 
The present day plant breeder has stepped up the yield of grain just as the automobile man- 
ufacturer has improved the old model T-Ford up to the present cars. 
If you feel you cannot purchase enough improved seed grain to plant your entire acreage, 
why not get enough to plant that little field out back of the house or a narrow strip along the big 
field. In this way you will have a full supply of improved seed for next year. All varieties of 
grain we list are late developments by the N. Y. State College of Agriculture and are fully adapted 
to use in the northeast.

NEW LENROC OATS 
See Picture Below 
Here are the new heavy yielding White Oats which were developed by the College of Agri- 
culture, Cornell University, Ithaca, N. Y. A grower at Clay, N. Y. reported a yield of 85 bu. 
per acre. 
‘*THE LENROC’”’ is a new white oat of the tree type. While somewhat slimmer than other 
commercial varieties, it is nevertheless exceptionally heavy and possesses a high percentage of 
meats. The grain, as it comes from the thresher, usually weighs 40 to 45 Ibs. per measured 
bushel. 
They are a free grower, well adapted to upland use. The shuck is exceptionally thin. 
Price—Recleaned Seed: 1 to 5 bu. $1.00 per bu. over 5 bu. $.90 — bags free. Orders subject 
to stock unsold.

YTHACAN OATS 
THE ITHACAN is a very heavy yielding, thin-shucked variety with plump white kernels. 
The plant stools freely; maturing in mid-season. It is a tree or branching oat with good stiff 
straw of medium height, standing up well. Year after year the average weight is 40 lbs. or better 
per measured bushel. Originated and recommended by Cornell. When shucked 100 Ibs. will give 
about 70 Ibs. of clear meats. The average strains run from 60 to 65 Ibs. Better adapted for rich 
soilsthan Lenroc. This variety yielded 85 bu. by measure for us in 1940. 
Price—Recleaned Seed. 1 to 5 bu. $1.00 per bu. over 5 bu. $.90—bags free.
