HENDERSON’S FARMERS MANUAL 
FIELD CORN 
Early Golden Orange Dent 
Introduced by us in 1928 
A 90 to 100 Day Variety. 
Farmer. 
Long Desired by the Northern 
Ears 8 to 11 Inches Long. 14 to 18 Rows of Kernels. 
For a number of years past there has been an insistent demand in the 
North and East for a really early variety of Golden Dent Field Corn; one 
that would mature in from. 90 to 100 days of corn growing weather. 
We are glad to offer again this year this wonderful variety from the 
middle west which fulfills exactly the requirements of the northern farmer 
and we feel sure we will make a firm friend of everyone we ship it to. 
Early Golden Dent Corn is the most desirably 
colored corn we have ever seen, and when shelled it makes the prettiest 
picture ever presented to the eye of the farmer. It

to one hundred normal corn days and specially adapted for 
the northern latitudes. 
The stalks are about 10 to 12 feet high, very strong and rank. The ears 
grow eight to eleven inches long and contain 14 to 18 rows of kernels on a 
red cob. The grains are deep and solid, making it very heavy in grain and 
a wonderful sheller. The ears for shelling were all selected by hand and the 
seed is in first-class merchantable condition. 
Sow 8 to 10 qts. per acre.

EUREKA YELLOW DENT 
Large, Handsome Ears, 12 to 15 Inches Long, 
Weighing 1 to 2 Pounds Each. Heavy Yielder; 
100 Bushels Shelled Corn per acre Not Unusual 
This is one of the finest and most productive field Corns grown; it is a 
tremendous yielder—100 of shelled Corn per acre not unusual. 
The plants grow 12 to 15 feet high, a large proportion of them bearing two 
immense ears to the stalk; the ears are very handsome, averaging 12 to 15 
inches long, with small red cob covered full, and over both butt and tip ends, 
with 18 to 22 even rows of large, deep grain of a rich orange-yellow color. 
It is fairly early for so large a Dent Corn, but, of course, does not mature 
as quickly as the small early Dent and Flint varieties, but where 105 to 
110 days of “Corn weather” are assured, it is an excellent Corn to grow.

HENDERSON’S SEED CORN is grown from pedigreed strains 
carefully selected in the field, consideration being given to the 
plant, as well as the ears, trueness to types, and uniform maturity. 
Diamond Jubilee Golden Dent 
110 Days. Small Cob. 70 Pounds of Ears Produce 
62 Pounds of Shelled Corn. 
The ears average ten to fourteen inches in length, are of a beautiful golden- 
yellow color, and are produced low down on the stalk, the average distance 
being three and one-half feet from the base of the ear to the ground. The 
cob is red, small, and firm, and covered with eighteen to twenty-two rows of 
deep, heavy grain. Seventy pounds of ears will, when dry, shell sixty to 
sixty-two pounds of corn. The ears are of surpassing uniformity, which 
accounts for the extra good yield of over one hundred bushels per acre when 
planted on fairly good corn land. 
The stalks grow to a height of from twelve to fourteen feet, but are not 
massive, although of good resisting quality, standing up well. The foliage 
is luxuriant, the stalks being furnished to the bottom, making the fodder 
of exceptional feeding value.

Long’s Champion Yellow Dent Corn is the climax of 25 years of Corn 
breeding and selection by one of the most successful farmers in the Penn- 
sylvania Corn belt. 
Will mature in the latitude of New York if planted during 
of May. Early planting is essential, even though there may 
of injury by the frost, which could be overcome on emergency by replanting. 
This King of Corns is without doubt the finest, the largest and the most 
productive Yellow Dent Corn ever produced, and will be found to be of great 
value to the farmer, especially in the Corn belt of the Middle and Eastern 
States, on account of its immense yield, at least 25% and often 50% more 
than can be obtained from the average old-type Corns generally planted.

It will ripen in Connecticut, New York State (except in that portion north
