802 Droughtproof 



Yellow Dent 



Resists Drought and Scorching Heat 

 Better Than Any Other Variety 



.Droughtproof Yellow Dent pro- 

 duces handsome ears of good size 

 and symmetrical shape with the 

 largest grains and the smallest 

 cob of any Yellow Dent Corn. 

 In fact, from 70 pounds of corn 

 on the ear, 64 pounds of shelled 

 corn and only 6 pounds of cobs 

 were obtained, which cannot be 

 equalled by any other corn in 

 existence. Grains are deep wedge 

 shaped aud of the brightest color. 

 Fully as early as Learning. Yield 

 not excelled by any other sort. 

 Strong growth of stalk. 



We do not hesitate to say that, 

 all points considered — its beauti- 

 ful color, long yellow grains, 

 small cob, large ears — taking all 

 points combined, it is the finest 

 yellow corn ever introduced, and 

 each customer who gives it a trial 

 will be fully convinced that it is 

 the best 90 to 100 day com he 

 ever planted. 



Droughtproof Corn is phenom- 

 enally excellent, and should be 

 tried by all farmers. It will yield 

 big crops wherever corn can be 

 grown.

307 Johnson County 

 White Dent 



The Most Popular and the Heaviest 

 Cropping White Corn Known 



The high breeding of this vari- 

 ety makes its growth more uni- 

 form. The beautiful large ears 

 are cylindrical in shape up to 

 within about 2 inches of the tip. 

 Both kernel and cob are white. 

 The tips of the ears are well filled, 

 a large percentage being com- 

 pletely covered with grain. The 

 kernels are uniform in size and 

 very long and wedge-shaped; 

 18 to 24 rows on a cob. The ears 

 will average about 10 inches in 

 length and from 1\ to 8 inches in 

 circumference. There is very little 

 space between the rows and this 

 variety yields a very high per- 

 centage of shelled corn. The stalk 

 is good and thrifty, ranging in 

 height from 10 to 12 feet. Ma- 

 tures in about 110 days. This 

 corn has been known to yield 

 from 100 to 125 bushels per acre. 



Packet, 10 cents; pound, 30 cents;
