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 conducted in five localities extending from 
the mountains to the Lower Coastal Plain, Stan- 
ton made an average yield of 89.7 bushels per 
acre against an average of 85.6 bushels for the 
next highest yielding variety. 
In the three tests (Southern Piedmont, South- 
ern Coastal Plain and Lower Coastal Plain), in 
which all three oats were included, Stanton pro- 
duced an average yield of 90.8 bushels per acre 
against 79.5 bushels for Lelina and 177.2 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 SE aARS and soil 
conditions of this area.
