AS ey 
for Heaviest crops of 
low cost, home-grown feed 
Figure EVERYTHING . .. it's important! Since last 
oats harvest, all kinds of 'seed oats' (of many qualities) 
have been hunting buyers. BUT ... top crops can't 
come from uncertain seed — in oats or any other farm 
crop. To say it's ‘certified’ isn't enough. OTHER 
FACTORS ARE EVEN MORE IMPORTANT. Is it seed 
from a HEAVY crop? (Certified only indicates it is 
true to type.) Is it bright, heavy seed? (Many crops 
certified this year were not.) Has it been cleaned right? 
(Much certified seed was certainly not well cleaned.) 
Will it germinate quick, start fast? How is its vigor? 
Has it been treated with Ceresan, for EXTRA protection 
against soil-borne diseases? 
Only a small percentage of seed oats available car- 
ries the very top rating. HOFFMAN Certified Seed Oats 
do — because they have been carefully selected as the 
BEST Seed from all the many offerings available. With 
so much depending on a good oats crop this year, why 
"shop around"? Here is the quality you need for the 
extra bushels you want next harvest! 



Pasturage is the lowest-cost source 
of good dairy feed you have . . . the 
foundation for those bigger milk 
checks, extra weight on livestock, and 
better poultry returns. The basis for 
better pastures is GOOD SEED... 
clean, vigorous, weed-free seed, of 
the RIGHT STRAINS.

and is a vigorous grower — stiff straw — 
good length. Is a plump grain oat with 
thin hull, high ''meat'’ percentage. An- 
other good point for unfavorable harvest 
weather — its strong stalks will hold up 
its full, ripe heads longer — protection 
when you need it. 
"VICTORY". Many folks again want 
the tried-and-true Hoffman certified Vic- 
tory Oats. It has proven dependable 
for Hoffman customers more than 20

this time of high prices . . . Practically 
all of the light grass seeds—Kentucky

of last year's cost. This is certainly 
the year to get new pastures started 
or to renovate and improve old ones.

Here's further proof that Hoffman hybrid research here 
in the east pays YOU bigger corn dividends. This non- 
stop effort has developed special Funk G Silage hybrids to 
fit every farm condition in this area. These G-silage 
hybrids are specialists, far different from old "Silage" 
corn which was just late-maturing corn with mostly water 
and little feed value. Funk G hybrids are bred to give 
you heavier tonnage of solid feed. To supply greater 
nutrient value in proportion to total green weight. To 
add well-developed grain into your ensilage. 
Bred with great roots and heavy leafiness to develop 
even in dry seasons, to fight off blight, to stand up for 
easy cutting. 
Get your Funk G Hybrid now. Grow better silage 
than you've ever had before — reap the benefits of 
this Hoffman Funk G effort to get better corn production
