CHEROKEE OAT 
_ Formerly Known as Berry's 333 Oat 
| 5 to 7 Days Earlier Than Clinton 
Quite a number of our customers bought Berry’s 333 oats last year 






























{| and were highly satisfied with them. A number have written they did 
| not see it listed in our 1948 catalog. We were attempting to hold our 
|| varieties down to a minimum which is one reason that we did not 
_ catalog it. In some respects the Golden Beauty seems to be somewhat 
superior to our 333. The 333 however, did have a very fine quality of 
grain, plumper than the average oat. The color is slightly darker. 
We received many letters of praise on these oats throughout the past 
few weeks. 
Cherokee—A New Name 
When we offered the 333 oat we were not able to give the exact 
pedigree but it now appears they are the CI 8846. These have recently 
been called the Cherokee Oat, therefore we are listing it under that 
new name. We have obtained a reasonable quantity of these Cherokee 
Oats although they will not go very far if the demand materializes 
like it did for the 333 last year. As far as they go however, we are 
glad to offer them to you. They have the D 69 Bond parentage. They 
mature, 5 to 7 days earlier than the Clinton. They are resistant to 
the helminthosporium blight. The grain is very nice and plump. It 
{| has straw of good strength. We can recommend them to you as a 
“first class oat. I am sure you will be highly satisfied with them be- 
cause, as stated before, we have never gotten a single complaint, and 
only letters of praise on the 338. | Hf 
The price—1l to 15 bushel, $4.15 a bu.; 16 to 45 bushel, $4.10 a 
bu.; 46 to 99 bushel, $4.05 a bu.; and in 100 bushel lots or more, 
$4.00 a bu. . 
These Oats, like the Golden Beauty, are not certified but seed that 
in our opinion, is first class stock in every respect and the type of 
seed oats that will bring our customers back when they want more. 

Berry’s Golden Beauty (¢ 
Guaranteed to Outyield any Variety of Certified Oats 
If you have read page 9 of our General Catalog, you will have a very 
good understanding about this Golden Beauty Oats. It is a specially graded 
selection of Clinton Oats. We have worked on this quite thoroughly in order 
to obtain an Oats that would have all the characteristics of the Clinton and 
have a more uniform maturity. It has the same maturity date as Clintons, 
has just as strong a straw, the straw will grow just as tall. In yield how- 
ever we consider that it will be superior and also that the quality will be ~ 
[: 
superior. When you take the Clinton Oats, they should be allowed to stand 
until they are dead ripe before they are combined, or otherwise should be 
combined out of the windrows. This is due to the fact that it has some | 
later maturing kernels in it. In our grading process we feel that we have 
removed a large percentage of this, and thereby improved the variety very 
materially. We are so confident of this, that we guarantee these Oats to 
outyield any other certified Oats. If Berry’s Golden Beauty Oats do not do 
that, we will refund you the difference between any extra that you paid us 
for the Golden Beauty Oats over the price that you may have paid for your 
certified seed. The price is as follows: 
1 to 15 bu., $3.25 per bu.; 16 to 45 bu., $3.20 per bu.; 46 to 99 
bu., $3.15 per bu.; and 100 bu. or more $3.10 per bu.
