ROHRER’S GRASS SEEDS ARE DEPENDABLE 
OATS, Certified Beaver 
_A medium white, early variety with much 
disease resistance. Was introduced in 1939 
and is a cross between Vanguard and Erban. 
In three years’ test at Ottawa Experimental 
Farms, Beaver Oats outyielded all other 
varieties. Grains large and plump; straw stiff, 
34 to 36 inches in Iength. The Oats we are 
offering were grown in Canada and are Cer- 
tified No. 1 seed. We suggest you sow a few 
acres of Beaver Oats this year. These Oats 
weigh 42 pounds per measured bushel. Sow 
we bushels by measure per acre. See Price- 
Ist. 
OATS, Victory 
Grains are very plump, large, heavy and 
white. Ripens early. We believe this is one 
of the heaviest Oats grown. The straw is tall, 
stronger and stiffer than any other sorts, and 
does not lodge. 
This is a tree-type Oats, densely branched, 
which contains a large number of heavy ker- 
nels. Anyone who wantsa large yield of plump 
Oats that cannot be equaled for feeding quali- 
ties should plant Victory Oats. Be sure to 
plant some Victory Oats this year. See Price- 
List. 
OATS, Certified Clinton 
This new variety is available to eastern farmers 
for the first time this year. Will sell at a higher 
price than other types and the price can only be 
justified if the Oats are better. 
Clinton Oats Is a new variety developed through 
the U. S. Department of Agriculture and State 
Experiment Stations. This variety was bred es- 
pecially for resistance to the more hazardous strains 
of rust, smut, and blight. Early maturity. 
Clinton Oats are medium early and produce high 
yields in the Oat-growing sections. They have out- 
yielded the older susceptible varieties. Clinton Oats 
are resistant to Helminthosporium and show heay- 
ier weight per bushel than the older varieties, less 
hull, and higher “‘meat”’ percentage. Highly recom- 
mended by local State Experiment Stations for 
spring Oat-producing sections. 
An excellent combine Oats. They usually stand 
well for a period of seven to ten days after grain is 
first dry enough for safe storage,- resulting in less 
shattering in the field. See price-list. 
“The Beaver Oats, I bought from you gave 55 bushels per 
acre. Stood up well, was light colored and good quality. The 
straw averages 3 to 4 feet in height.””—Union Co., Pa. 
“We seeded the Beaver Oats we received from you at the rate 
of 3 bushels per acre along side of several acres of Certified 
Vicland Oats the same day. We have never seen anything like 
the growth of the Beaver Oats. They grew fast, got shoulder 
high, developed a long, well filled head and had a very heavy 
stiff stalk. The wet weather at ripening time caused a complete 
loss of the Vicland Oats. They rusted badly and lodged so that 
it was impossible to harvest them., The Beaver Oats were prac- 
tically free from rust and while they lodged in the low spots we 
were still able to combine over 300 bushels from the 5-acre field.”’ 
—Miles Fry, Route 3, Ephrata, Pa. 




Beaver Certified Oats 
Canada Field Peas 
Used both as a green feed and as a fertilizer. The 
amount of feed produced per acre is very large. 
Ranks very high as a fertilizer, either when plowed 
under or pastured off. Canada Field Peas are most 
profitable when sown with oats. The oats will 
support the vines and Jessen the trouble of harvest- 
ing. Sow 114 bushels of Peas per acre, and about the 
same amount of oats. It will pay you to moculate 
your Peas with Legume-Aid. See Price-List. 
Bearded Barley 
Barley culture is similar to that of spring wheat 
or oats. To produce large crops of Barley the soil 
should be well prepared to receive the seed. It is 
heavier than oats and will yield more bushels per 
acre. Barley should be sown as early as oats, if 
possible, but will stand late planting better than 
oats. Sow 2 bushels per acre. See Price-List. 
New Improved Ceresan 
Increase your profits with New Improved Ceresan. 
Use this dust treatment on seed to reduce seed-borne 
diseases, step up your yield, increase your profit. 
May be applied as long as three months before 
sowing. Easy to use. Recommended for Wheat, 
Barley, and Oats. One pound will treat 32 bushels.
