FIELD CORN 



56 lbs. io the bushel 

 One bushel plants 5 to 6 acres 

 Our Field Com is especially grown for seed 

 purposes. It is all hand selected, tipped, and 

 butted. We have exercised the greatest care 

 in selecting strains for their high yields and 

 their adaptabOity to this cUmate and location. 



HYBRID FIELD CORN 



Last year it was estimated that 25 per cent 

 of the Corn planted in the Com Belt was 

 Hybrid Com. There would have been more 

 if there had been sufficient seed. Hybrid 

 Corn yields 10 to 30 bushels more to the acre, 

 has a larger stalk and a better root-system, 

 and is more disease-, storm-, and drought- 

 resistant. The strains we offer have made 

 the highest yields at nearly every experi- 

 mental station in the East. 

 Hybrid White Dent. Matm-es in 124 days, 

 roasting ears in 93 days; 9 feet tall. Ears 

 10 to 11 inches long, with 16 rows of large, 

 deep_ grains, closely wedged together on 

 medium small white cob. With its strong 

 stalk, deep root-system, and resistance to 

 smut and other diseases, it has outj-ielded 

 all other white varieties 15 to 20 per cent. 

 Hybrid Yellow Dent. Matures in 112 days, 

 roasting ears in 83 days; 8 feet tall. Every 

 stalk bears uniform, large, solid ears, with 

 16 straight rows of deep grains, tightly 

 wedged on a small cob. It is disease- and 

 drought-resisting. The stalk is stocky vrith 

 strong root-system, and it outjdelds leading 

 yellow varieties 15 to 20 per cent.

 Our strain outjdelds local Boone Countj' 

 5 bushels per acre. Heayj^ ears, 10 to 11
