Silver King (Wisconsin No. 7) Corn. 



CORN. 



During the past few years the Corn Crop in Wisconsin has devel- 

 oped into a very important one, so that now in point of yield we rank 

 with the best in the Corn Belt. This has been brought about in a 

 great measure through the efforts of the Wisconsin Experiment Station 

 in the selection and breeding of large yielding varieties that are suit- 

 able for our climatic conditions. 



By special arrangements we have these Wisconsin varieties grown 

 for us by members of the Wisconsin Experiment Association, who give 

 particular care to the selection of the earliest and best ears, so that 

 our stocks are constantly being improved. 



All our Seed Corn is carefully selected and fire dried, after which 

 it is thoroughly tested for vitality and none is allowed to go out that 

 does not show strong germination. 



Silver King (Wisconsin No. 7) — An excellent white dent variety, ma- 

 turing early, and suited to Wisconsin conditions. It was originally 

 brought from northern Iowa, and developed at the Wisconsin Ex- 

 periment Station. The ears are large and closely set with deep 

 white kernels. It is a remarkable yielder. In 1908 the average 

 yield of this variety at the Wisconsin Experiment Station was 93 

 bushels to the acre, and yields of over 110 bushels per acre have 

 been reported from various parts of the state. We highly recom- 

 mend it for the middle and southern section of Wisconsin. Shelled, 

 per quart, 20c; peck, 85c; bushel, $3.00. On the ear, peck, $1.00; 

 bushel, $3.50.
