HEAVYWEIGHT °* « = 
The Heaviest American Oat Grown 
While in search of new varieties of Oats of value m the Northwest, where the 
best Oats are grown, we found, in Wyoming, several fields of a new variety with 
tall, stiff straw standing shoulder high and the heaviest American Oat grown. 
When these fields were threshed, the yield was over 100 bushels per acre and the 
weight over 45 pounds per measured bushel of pure white, thin-hulled grain. 
We purchased the entire lot, and from this source secured our stock seed of this, 
in our opinion, the heaviest and most productive American Oat. This was some 
twenty years ago. During that time we have distributed over 600,000 bushels to 
our customers, and, wherever grown, it has given wonderful yields in comparison 
with other varieties grown alongside: Around 100 bushels to the acre in New 
Jersey; 117 bushels in New England; im New York, on large areas, 80,82, 87, 89, 
92, and up to 106 bushels, where the average yield is 30 bushels; and in Ohio, 
crops averaging “just twice” the yield of common Oats have been reported to us 
by our customers. 
We were fortunate in having our Oats grown in a locality where weather condi- 
tions were favorable for growth and harvesting. Therefore we have an excellent 
quality to offer our customers. 
Dibble’s Heavyweight Oats have made wonderful yields for a Jarge number of 
our customers In many states. We read of remarkable records and big yields of 
Oats in the western states, under irrigation, but right here, in the East, Dibble’s 
Heavyweight Oats have produced record-breaking crops. Average weight 40 
pounds per measured bushel.

Lenroc is a new variety of Oat introduced by the 
Cornell University Agricultural Experiment Station. 
The plant breeders at Cornell were endeavoring to pro- 
duce white Oats that had the high-yielding ability of the 
Cornellian. This was accomplished by crossing Great 
American with Cornellian in 1918, and for seventeen 
years this Oat was tested in various localities for yield, 
stiffness of straw, and other desirable characteristics 
before it was introduced in 1935. 
Lenroc is midseason in maturing and is the highest 
yielding Oat that has been developed at Cornell. It has a 
large plump white kernel and all the characteristics of a 
desirable Oat, either for feeding or for sale. 

GORNEELIANI 7 < ie 
Cornellian was introduced by the Cornell Agricultural Experiment Station 
about twenty-three years ago. It has proved to be a heavy and consistent yielder 
and is especially well suited to soils of ordinary fertility. The kernels are more 
slender than those of other varieties and Jack awns or beards, but in spite of their 
apparently small size, the meat is actually larger than that of most Oats, for the 
hull is very thin. The normal color of the kernel is gray and will vary from light 
gray to dark gray, depending on the soil and season. As a commercial Oat this 
dark color is somewhat objectionable but for feeding on the farm it is of no Im- 
portance. Cornellian’s high meat percentage gives it a distinct advantage as a 
feed for stock and poultry and its high-yielding ability makes it a favorite with 
those who have planted it.
