MARETT’S PEDIGREED 
ANDERSON OATS 
1950 BREEDER FOUNDATION STOCK 
The stiff straw of Anderson Oats makes them an outstanding combine 
type of oat of the winter oat region. Its range of adaptability is quite ex- 
tensive covering most of North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, and 
parts of Alabama. The cold resistance of this oat makes it especially well 
suited to the Piedmont and mountain areas while the high type rust re- 
sistance inherited from Victoria is assurance against loss from crown or 
leaf rust. Anderson is consistently a high producer with well filled grains 
which thrash easily and have a low percentage of hull. 
Anderson, while not highly resistant to victoria blight, or foot rot, is 
among the more tolerant varieties of Victoria parentage with resistance 
to crown rust. Treatment with new improved Ceresan and planting on 
clean soil will go far toward keeping this disease under control.
