Certified Seed Oats 
VICTORY. A tall growing white-kerneled variety 
which is recommended as a heavy yielder. The 
straw is stiff and strong enough not to lodge. It was 
developed at the Svalof Station in Sweden and out- 
yields the Swedish Select type. It should not be 
confused with that variety. Pk., 75c; bu., $2.40. 
MOHAWK. The Mohawk is a selection from a Bond 
and D67 cross. It derives its rust and smut resist- 
ance from its Bond parent and is also resistant to 
blight. The straw is about 36 inches in height and 
the grain matures early. Cornell highly recommends 
Mohawk over Vicland. Pk., 75c; bu., $2.40.
