SEED OATS FOR SPRING PLANTING 
Sow Early for Best Results 
Wood's Columbia Spring Oats 
The Earliest Maturing and Heavy Yielding Spring Oat 
An outstanding variety for spring planting for both grain and 
hay. One of the earliest maturing varieties, whether the compari- 
son is made in early or’late sown plots. In an official test for an 
average of 6 years it outyielded 12 other leading oats in spring test. 
It is far superior to the Burt Oat for both grain and hay produc- 
toe and on this account we have discontinued offering the Burt 
ats. 
Wood's Pedigree Fulgrain Oats 
Readily Salable as a Cash Grain Crop 
Cold and Smut-Resistant. One of the best oats for spring plant- 
ing in the South. It yielded 94 bushels per acre in a 1939 Southern 
experiment station test to 50 bushels for Fulghums, is more 
disease resistant, has larger, heavier grain, and matures earlier, 
before hot weather and rust damage, Stools well; vigorous growth; 
superior for grazing; tough straw; large well-balanced heads; 
beautiful large heavy grains with a rich reddish yellow color; thin 
hull; high per cent of meat, and weighs 40 lbs. per bushel. Owing 
to the fact that the Fulgrain Oat can also be planted in the fall, 
it is readily salable for seed purposes at harvest, 
> 
Alfalfa, Red Clover, permanent Grass and Clover Mixtures 
and Dwarf Essex Rape can all be satisfactorily sown with 
either fall or spring sown Oats. They furnish a fine nurse crop. 
Sow Spring Oats during February and March. In the moun- 
tain section as late as early April, at the rate of 2 bushels per 
acre, and use 300 to 400 lbs. 4-12-4 Fertilizer. 
Wood's Swedish Select Oats 
A Fine Heavy Oat for the Mountains 
The heavier yielding, extra heavy plump, white oat for which 
cattlemen and horse breeders always pay a substantial premium. 
Its tall stalks and tremendous heads yield heavy crops of both 
grain and hay in the cooler mountain sections and northern states. 
Our seed stock this year is the finest we have ever handled, having 
a test weight of over 38% lbs. to the measured bushel, which is 
exceptionally heavy for natural oats. 
WHITE SPRING A good strain of white oats that makes good 
yields of feed and grain in higher altitudes 
and in the North. It makes big heads, large grain of excellent 
quality, and tall straw. 
WINTER TURF OATS 0vr tests have shown the Lee Cold 
‘ ¢ Proof so superior for both fall and 
spring planting that we are not offering the Turf Oats this 
season, 
Wood's Improved Lee 
Cold Proof Oats 
Strain 5, Grown from Certified Seed 
Its extreme winter resistance allows earlier 
planting than other oats. It produced more hay 
than any other spring sown oat in a North Caro- 
lina test, a fourth more than Fulghum, and grows 
a foot taller. Its tremendous heads are laden with 
extra heavy grain weighing 40 lbs. per bushel. Our 
strain yielded 95 bushels per acre in one test to 
51 for Fulghum.

WOOD’S SEED GRAINS ARE TREATED 
WITH NEW IMPROVED CEREASAN. Treated 
seeds produce healthier plants, stronger stalks, 
larger heads, more resistance to disease and 
larger yields of better quality grain. When you 
puy Wood’s Seed Grains, they are treated and 
ready to plant for better crops. Seed treatment 
with New Improved Ceresan frequently in- 
creases yields from 6 to 18 per cent, adding a 
real profit to your crops. :

Bearded Spring Barley orcrest ore ine 
spring grain. Can be cut in about two months, 
making very nutritious and paltable hay. Can 
be grown on a greater variety of soils under a 
wider range of climatic conditions than almost 
any other grain crop. It yields 25 to 40 bushels 
per acre of grain equal to corn in feeding value. 
Sow 2 bushels per acre in February or March.

Canada Field Peas hay or grazing to fatten or 
produce milk. Stock eat it greedily and thrive 
on it. Grows 4 to 6 feet, but can be grazed when 
6 to 10 inches high. If not grazed too closely it 

GROW MORE OATS 
More farmers should grow oats to avoid feeding horses corn all the time. It is 
much better to change the diet. The high value of oats for feeding to horses and 
mules is generally understood. Oats are particularly valuable for feeding to colts 
and other young and growing stock. Its value for feeding to young animals is due 
to its high proportion of bone-forming and muscle-forming material.
