RUST RESISTANT 
FULGRAIN OATS 
1946 BREEDER FOUNDATION STOCK 
Our 1946 strain of Fulgrain oats combines 
early maturity with stiff, storm resistant straw 
and a high degree of resistance to leaf or crown 
rust. The heads are long and well balanced, and 
the grains are plump, heavy and of high feeding 
value. 
We do not claim any remarkable improvement 
in this oat over strains previously offered. The 
desirable features of this variety have been fully 
maintained through selection and 
testing with some improvement in 
yield. It is one of the best tillering 
oats we know of, is uniform in type, 
and has so far shown resistance to all 
smuts yet discovered. 
DESCRIPTION 
Plant: Semi-erect with dark green 
pointed blades; profuse tillering; 
cold resistant, rust resistant, 
smut resistant. 
Season: 10 to 12 days earlier than 
Appler and Red Rust Proof, 2 to 
3 days later than Fulghum. 
Heads: Long, well balanced, heavily 
fruited. 
Straw: Very stiff, very storm resist- 
ant; ideal for combining. 
Grains: Beautiful, plump, low per 
eent hull, heavy, high feeding 
value. Few with awns or beard. 
Production: Better production record 
than parent strain.

These oats treated with Ceresan. 
NOTE: Although our 1946 strain of Fulgrain 
has been highly resistant to all known races of 
smut, we are nevertheless treating these seed 
with Ceresan because of the possibility that 
there are other races of smut not yet discovered 
to which this oat may be susceptible, and because 
of the advantages of Ceresan treatment in better, 
healthier stands and increased yields. 
Left: Note profuse tillering, stiff storm resistant straw, 
and long well balanced heads on our Fulgrain variety. 

Fulgrain oats average a 
low percent hull, are heavy 
and of high feeding value. 
SUGGESTIONS ON GROWING CERTIFIED 
OATS 
1. Plant your oats or wheat on land you know 
to be free of noxious weeds, foreign seed or yol- 
unteer grain. 
2. Never plant on land which was planted to 
grain the previous year. Intensive cultivation of 
row crops such as beans or peas planted on stub- 
ble will not prevent seed from ger- 
minating and showing up as volunteer 
plants if the land is seeded to grain 
the following season. Also, low lands 
planted to row crops are usually in- 
fested with noxious weeds and should 
not be planted in oats for certifica- 
tion. 
3. Never scatter rough stable 
manure or compost on fields: you ex- 
pect to plant to any of the small 
grains. Seed will go through work 
stock or grazing animals and come 
up as volunteers in such fields. 
4. Be sure every seed is removed 
from the grain drill before going into 
the field to plant. A handful of seed 
left in a grain drill will spoil the ap- 
pearance of an entire plot of grain. 
5. In all gections where small 
grains are grown, seed will be scat- 
tered by birds or other means to the 
adjoining fields in that vicinity, and 
volunteer plants: will result: Volun- 
teer plants are those which are not planted by 
the grain drill and appear at random BETWEEN 
THE GRAIN ROWS. If the plants are not exact- 
ly in the grain row you are safe in assuming 
they are volunteer plants. 
6. Hard seed in vetch often germinate the 
second year and, furnish a troublesome source of 
mixture. Small grain growers must recognize 
this fact and plan their cropping system so as 
to avoid this as far as possible. 
7. Regardless of the quality of your planting 
seed or the condition of your land, it is almost 
certain that some weeds: and a few hybrid or 
off-type plants will appear. It is highly important 
that you check your fields of grain carefully, and 
remove these before harvest. This operation is 
usually simple and inexpensive, and often repre- 
sents the difference between saving seed that 
can or cannot be certified.
