Clinton 59 Certified Seed Oats 
Clinton 59 Write for prices 
Clinton 59 has all the good qualities of the original Clinton Oats and in addition has slightly 
greater yielding ability, is about one day earlier and is more uniform in growth and maturity than 
the original Clinton. We believe that the Clinton 59 will probably replace the original Clinton 
in a few years. 
We recommend treating all seed Oats with Improved Ceresan for smut whether or not certified 
seed is used. 1 lb. treats 32 bushels. See page 62. 
Soy Beans 
Soy Beans planted in warm soil up to July 15th can be most valuable crop for livestock feed. 
They will produce either grain or roughage high in protein, minerals, and vitamins. When prop- 
erly inoculated, Soy Beans will gather abundant nitrogen from the air. 
Holmes can supply top quality seed of high germination, free of weeds. 
When grown for hay, 90 lbs. per acre solid; for silage, 4 to 6 lbs. per acre when sown with Corn; 
for silo, plant 60 Ibs. Soys to 15 Ibs. Sudan; for seed drill 40 lbs. or 90 lbs. sown solid. (60 lbs. 
per bushel.) 
Hawkeye Write for prices 
Hawkeye Soy Beans are best answer yet found for a variety that will mature as early as Richland 
and with equal ability to stand up for the combine and in addition carry as much oil as does 
Lincoln. We believe it worth your while and to your advantage to try Hawkeye this year.

A New Improved Variety 
Sweet Sudan Write for Price List 
Its disease-resistant qualities make it a valuable pasture or hay crop. Stalks are taller, 
heavier and produce a finer and more palatable feed for livestock because of the sweet and 
juicy stalklike Sorghums. Sweet Sudan is the best emergency pasture for mid and late 
summer grazing. Good results are obtained when seeded in late May (if weather is 
favorable) or early June, and can also be sown during July at the rate of 20 to 30 
pounds per acre. Produces abundant material for grazing in about six weeks. Plants 
stool out much heavier, are more leafy, and produce richer yields of forage than 
common Sudan. 

Dwarf Essex Rape 
For Quick Pasture for Sheep and Hogs 
It should be sown from late March to the middle of July. It is ordinarily ready to 
graze in 7 to 10 weeks or when 12 inches high. The seed may be broadcast and covered
