COKER’S PEDIGREED 
STANTON OATS 
STRAIN 1 
A Rather Tall Growing, Cold and Leaf Rust Resistant 
Variety Suitable for Grain, Hay or Green Feed. 
Coker’s Stanton oat is of medium late maturity 
and is highly resistant to cold, leaf rust and most 
races of smut. It combines features that make it 
attractive to livestock feeders and dairymen. It 
makes a profuse leaf growth; grows rather tall and 
provides more green feed, more hay or a greater 
tonnage of ensilage per acre. 
Better Yields of Grain and Rust-Free Forage 
Stanton is a heavy yielder of grain, as well as 
hay, and its resistance to rust and smut helps pro- 
duce bigger yields of cleaner grain and rust-free 
forage. An oat which produces plenty of straw, 
as well as good yields of grain, is also desirable 
as livestock feeders have a use for their oat straw 
for bedding. 
The early plant growth is of the low spreading 
winter type, with profuse tillering and long, fine 
blades. Stanton is a week later than Victorgrain 
in maturity (about the same as Red Rust Proof), 
has long, well balanced heads and a medium-stiff 
straw for an oat of its height. The grains are bright 
to rich yellow in color, a few with awns or beard. 
High Yield Record in North Carolina Tests 
Stanton made the highest average yield of any 
variety included in all five of the 1942 official N. C. 
Oat Variety Tests. In these tests, which were con- 
ducted in five localities extending from the moun- 
tains to the Lower Coastal Plain, Stanton made an 
average yield of 89.7 bushels per acre against an 
average of 85.6 bushels for the next highest yield- 
ing variety. 
In the three tests (Southern Piedmont, Southern 
Coastal Plain and Lower Coastal Plain), in which 
all three oats were included, Stanton produced an 
average yield of 90.8 bushels per acre against 79.5 
bushels for Lelina and 77.2 for Letoria. 
Especially Well Suited for Piedmont Section 
Coker’s Stanton oats are showing up especially 
well in the Piedmont areas of North and South 
Carolina and Georgia. Its cold resistance and extra 
vigor enable it to make a satisfactory winter growth 
under the exacting weather and soil conditions of 
this area.
