SPECIAL! Another Great Triumph! Schell's Big Yellow Dent Com Wins Again! 
This time it takes First Prize and Second Prize in the Five-Acre Corn Contest carried on by the County 
Farm Agent. It beats all other varieties. 
MR. HARVEY HERSHEY takes First Prize with a yield of 81.79 bushels of sheUed Corn per acre, or 
408.95 bushels on his five acres. 
MR. IRA SHENK takes Second Prize with a yield of 80.72 bushels of shelled Corn per acre, or 403.60 
bushels on his five acres. 
This is the record yield for Dauphin County in 1921, and most remarkable it is when you consider that the 
growing season of that year was the driest and most unfavorable one we have had in many years. 
An Average Yield ol 81.79 Bushels of Shelled Com per Acre should persuade you to at once decide to 
plant Schell's Big Yellow Dent Corn this year and to plant your entire Corn acreage with it. Mr. Weible, the 
official statistician of the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture, officially states that the average yield of all 
the Corn grown in Pennsylvania is only 46.3 bushels to the acre. Why not grow 81.79 Bushels to the acre. If 
Mr. Harvey Hershey and Mr. Ira Shenk can get such enormous yields by planting Schell's Big Yellow Dent Corn, 
so can you. Don't think about the price of the seed — think about your crop — that is where you make or lose.

There are very many varieties of Corn, hundreds of them; many are different only in name and it would be 
very confusing to you to have a list of all these varieties from which to try to choose the best. So I am offering 
here four kinds of Field Corn which I consider the very finest, most valuable of all Corn. Schell's Ninety- 
Day is unequaled as the best ninety-day Corn, Funk's Yellow Dent leads every other kind in the hundred-day 
varieties, Schell's Big Yellow Dent beats everything as a general crop, big ear with big grains, while Eureka 
I consider one of the best White Corns. You make no mistake in ordering any of these valuable Corns. In addition 
to these best four varieties of Corn, I have listed Lancaster County Sure Crop because the County Agent has 
recommended it, and also a new early Corn, Clark's Early Smoky Dent, which is being offered for the first 
time, and whose extreme earliness (it matures in seventy-five days) puts it in a class of its own. 
Seamless bags that hold 2^4 bus. are used in shipping one bushel or more. Send 35 cts. tor each bag. 
My Seed Corn is Sold to You on a Guaranteed Test 
You take no chances on my Seed Corn nor any other seeds you order from me. When I advise you that the 
test is 100 per cent you are privileged to test it yourself when it arrives and if it does not test as I say, you may 
return it and I will refund the price paid, also freight charges. However, I cannot and will not guarantee the 
growth or the crop after the seed is planted in the field for no human being can control the birth of plants. Cold, 
wet soil, too deep planting, lack of rain, crows, maggots, all these can cause failure of the best seed, but when 
conditions are right you'll get a perfect crop from my pure-bred Seed Corn. 
Schell's NinetU-DaU Seed Cofn. t">ly valuable Ninety-Day Corn. The tremendous quantity 
of shelled Corn this variety produces to the acre surprises everyone 
who grows it. Generally two good ears to a stalk. The grain is very long, longer than any other, and the cob 
very thin. It has a rich, deep yellow grain, making it much desired by millers. The fodder grows from 8 to 10 
feet high. Order this Corn upon my recommendation; if not satisfied when you get it, return it at once — I'll 
gladly pay freight both ways and refund the amount paid. Vou are always sure of a magnificent crop in the 
shortest season. Think of it ! A bushel of 70 pounds of ears of Schell's Ninety-Day Corn will make 63 pounds of 
shelled Corn! Do you want it? Certainly you do. Order it now. Bus. $3, Vibus. $1.50, pk.'$l (pk. $1.30, post- 
paid). (Small quantities, pkt. 10 cts., pt. 20 cts., qt. 30 cts., 2 qts. 50 cts., 4 qts. 75 cts., postpaid.) 
Funk's Yellow Dent Cotn. ^ pedigreed com, bred from thoroughbred parentage for years and is 
' positively one of the biggest yielders in cultivation; for almost every stock 
has two perfect, beautiful golden ears loaded with their wealth of rich grains, having from 20 to 24 rows of grains, 
producing three to four times as much Corn to the acre as that worn-out stuff still bearing the name of Corn ■ 
which so many folks continue to plant, not because they want another crop of half "nubbins," but because they 
think it is "pretty good." Pay more attention to the seed you plant. Of course good seed will cost you more, but 
what is the cost of a peck of good Corn for an acre when it will give you 50 bushels more to that acre with the same 
amount of work on it? Funk's Yellow Dent matures in 100 days, ears very uniform, average 9 inches, stalks aver- 
age 10 feet. It is the best hundred-day. Bus. $3, Vjbus. $1.50, V4hus. $1 (Vibus. $1.30, Vabus. $2, postpaid). 
(Small quantities, pkt. 10 cts., pt. 20 cts., qt. 30 cts., 2 qts. 50 cts., 4 qts. 75 cts., postpaid.) 
LonCQStef CoUntU Sute CfOP. variety has been grown by Lancaster County farmers for years. 
: — The ear is long, rather narrow, with medium-sized grains. A very 
hardy grower; medium early; stalks average 9 feet. 
While the County Farm Agent has been recommending this variety, we think that now he will urge every 
farmer to plant Schell's Big Yellow Dent, for the test he made of 5-acre plots of different varieties resulted in our 
Schell's Big Yellow Dent taking First and Second Prizes for the largest yield — the record for Dauphin County 
la.st year. Read the. account of it at the top of this page. Price of Lancaster County Sure Crop, bus. $2.50, 
■^bus. $1.25, pk. 75 cts. (Postpaid, pkt. 10 cts., pt. 20 cts., qt. 30 cts., 2 qts. 50 cts., 4 qts. 75c., pk. $1.30.) 
Clark's EaflU Smoky Dent. ^ extra-early Field Corn offered for the first time. It is not an 
ordinary white or yellow Corn, but has a distinctive color all its own; 
very beautiful when shelled. Its great value is in its extreme earliness, maturing ready for harvesting in seventy- 
five days, about three weeks before the Ninety-Day varieties. Is not this remarkable? Being so very early 
makes it a most valuable Corn for a quick crop, or for replanting other crops when necessary, or to allow two 
crops, or for clearing the ground for fall seeding. The stalks grow 7 feet high and the ears are 9 inches long 
with 12 to 16 rows of kernels. For farms in high altitudes and in very northern locations, this will be found a very 
desirable variety. It will mature in Canada, New York State, Vermont, or Maine and is ten days earlier than 
Early Canada Flint Corn. Trv it out this year and I am sure next year vou will want more of it. Bus. $3, 
Vjbus. $1.50, pk. $1. (Postpaid, pkt. 10 cts., pt. 20 cts., qt. 30 cts., 2 qts. 50 cts., 4 qts. 75 cts., pk. $1.30.) 
Eureka EnSilaae Com. * Great Favorite for Filling Silos. Has a record of 70 tons of Ensilage 
grown on one acre. Eureka is a smooth white Dent Corn with large kernels 
while its fodder grows from 12 to 18 feet high. It grows taller, has more leaf, and will produce more tons of good 
material for the silo than any other kind. The proper time to cut ensilage is when it is in blossom — watch the 
tassel. It is better to cut early than too late. Bus. $3, i^bus. $1.50, pk. $1 (pk. $1.30, postpaid). (Small 
quantities, pkt. 10 cts., pt. 20 cts., qt. 30 cts., 2 qts. 50 cts., 4 qts. 75 cts., postpaid.)
