New Seed Stock Increases Yields 21 
CERTIFIED MINDO OATS 
Early Heavy Yielders 
DISEASE RESISTANT 
Supplies of Certified Mindos are very short, this being the first season that 
seed has been available for sale commercially. The Mindo was developed at 
the Minnesota station and is a selection from a cross of Bond x [(Minota x 
White Russian) x Black Mesdag.] Bond is one of the Clinton lines, while 
Black Mesdag is resistant to stem rust. With these blood lines this selection 
is bound to be outstanding. Mindos are also resistant to Helminthosporium 
Blight, Race 8 stem rust and crown rust. 
VERY EARLY MATURING 
The Mindos are several days earlier than the Clinton and Benton, are 
somewhat shorter in height and stand up well for combining. The are adapted 
to all the Mid-western Corn Belt area. The grain is plump, thin-hulled and 
light yeHow in color. Yields are comparable to Clinton and Benton. Ina 
four year test in Minnesota, Mindo averaged 98.1 bu. per acre. 
There are many years when an early maturing oat is very desirable. If 
hot dry weather prevails early in the season Mindos will far surpass the 
larger late varieties. Grow Mindo this year for big profits by selling your 
crop for seed.

American’s Gold Bond Oats 
Carefully Graded 
Gold Bond is our own selection of Clinton which has been given a special 
cleaning and grading process. We remove a much larger percentage of grain 
in this process than is taken out by ordinary cleaning methods. The small 
light weight seed is removed leaving only the heavy weight uniform kernels. 
We feel that greater yields and better quality grain will be obtained from 
seed of this type. More uniform ripening is another feature of Gold Bond 
which we believe you will like. Besides these advantages you get all of the 
other desirable characteristics of Clinton: Resistance to disease, stiff straw, 
thin hulls, resistance to lodging and wide adaptability. 
GOLD BOND IS GUARANTEED 
We will actually guarantee our GOLD BOND to outyield any other Clinton 
Oats when planted side by side. If they don’t we will refund the difference 
in purchase price between the two varieties. Although the cost is slightly 
higher than other varieties, we feel that you will be repaid many times in 
higher yields and better quality grain. Plant a few acres of GOLD BOND 
this year and see the difference. 
Prices: 1-9 bu. $3.10; 10-24 bu. $3.05; 24-45 bu. $3.00 
AJAX 
Heavy Northern Variety 
Ajax are a tall growing variety of Northern Oats. They are early in 
maturing—ripening several days before the Vanguard. The kernel is light in 
color and very heavy. The straw is very stiff and about 4 inches taller than 
the Clinton. The Ajax is resistant to blight and rust rot in the same degree 
as the D69X Bond selections. It is a cross between Victory and Hajiro.

Many of our customers who have bought the Victory Oats the past few 
years will be more than pleased with the Ajax. It has all the desirable char-. 
acteristics of the Victory, plus many new advantages. Many dealers and agents
