Our strains of Winter Resistant oats as released from time to time 
continue in the esteem of those growers who demand the very highest 
quality obtainable in kernel character along with good production ability. 
Winter Resistant oats combine many of the features most desired by 
Southern growers. This variety is a good early-grower, producing an 
abundance of fall, winter, and early spring grazing. It is early, and comes 
off in time to give lespedeza a good chance to make seeds and hay. Feeding 
value of these oats is high, owing to thin hulls and relatively large pro- 
portion of groat, and thus reducing the percentage of fiber. 
Yield performance has been quite satisfactory for this variety. In 
1946 it was top yielder at the Pee Dee Experiment Station.
