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 Jength. 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 
two bushels by measure per acre. See Price- 
List. 
OATS, Certified Clinton 
Clinton Oats is a new variety developed 
through the U. S. Department of Agriculture 
and State Experiment Stations. This variety 
was bred especially for resistance to the more 
hazardous strains of rust, smut, and blight. 
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 heavier weight per bushel than the 
older varieties, less hull, and higher ‘‘meat’”’ 
percentage. Highly recommended 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 shat- 
tering in the field. See Price-List. 
Certified Clinton Oats 
Domestic Rye Grass 
One of the best grasses for a cover-crop. Among the 
most important characteristics of Rye Grass is its deep 
rooting system. Roots well distributed through the 
soil are a much more desirable form of organic matter 
than top, which, if large when plowed down, may be 
actually detrimental. A good Rye Grass, cover-crop 
turns over in a mass like a real sod when plowed. Can 
be sown before or immediately after last cultivation. 
For a cover-crop, sow 15 pounds per acre. 
When sown alone for pasture, use 20 pounds per acre. 
In mixtures with other grasses, reduce the Rye Grass 
accordingly. See Price-List.

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 lessen the trouble of harvest- 
ing. Sow 114 bushels of Peas per acre, and about the 
same amount of oats. It will pay you to inoculate 
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 Iate planting better than 
oats. Sow 2 bushels per acre. See Price-List.
