CARFFS SEED CORN 



We paid $350.00 for the 10 ears winning 

 the Grand Champion Sweepstakes prize 

 at the National Corn Show. This is a 

 record-beating price. We planted every 

 kernel of these 10 ears on our own farm. 

 Every corn grower will want to know the 

 result, so we have a booklet, nicely illus- 

 trated with actual photographs of our growing corn 

 fields, seed barns, residence, pile of ear corn harvested 

 from 10 seed ears, etc. As long as they last you may 

 have one without cost if you are an actual corn grower 

 or directly interested in corn crops. If you would like 

 some of the seed grown from these 10 ears, we will 

 tell you how to get it without cost. Seed and Fruit 

 Catalog Free.
