Scheirs Big Yellow Dent Corn 
Tlic ears are immense, 12 to 14 inches long with 20 to 24 rows of long, large grains. It is without question one 
of the most valuable Yellow Dent Corns ever produced because of its immense yield, at least a 25 per cent and 
often a 50 per cent greater number of bushels to the acre than any of the average yields of other varieties. The 
stalks grow from 12 to 15 feet high, giving an immense quantity of fodder heavily covered with big broad leaves. 
If you want the biggest and best crop in the neighborhood, tlien grow Schell's Big Yellow Dent. Plant it in May 
and it will mature in September. Remember it takes no more seed, no more work in preparing the land, planting 
and cultivating to grow a hig crop of SclicW s Big Yellow Dent than it does to grow an ordinary crop of common Corn. 
It costs $$.$0 per bushel, which equals 70 cents as the cost of seed for each acre you plant, which should produce 
for you a magnificent crop of perhaps so to 75 bushels more Corn off every acre by spending that amount on each 
acre, — then which is the business thing for you to do? Sell your Corn and order Schell's Big Yellow Dent, and 
you'll have a crop of Corn that will look just like this picture. It is some pleasure indeed to husk a field of this 
Corn and see the large piles of big. rich, golden yellow ears. Put out a big acreage of it. Read these letters from 
mv customers, they tell you what wonderful crops Schell's Big Yellow Dent has produced for them.

Dear Sir: I got one peck of your Big Yellow Dent Corn the last of April and planted it on 
the second dav of May. I had 2 acres in a Blue Grass valley on my farm in Fayette Co.. Pa. 
which had not been plowed for 20 years, and my 100 head of sheep had been wintered on that 
Iiatch. It became very rich, hence I put this big Corn in it and raised the finest field of Corn 
that was ever raised on the farm. Many stalks had 2 large ears. It measured 348 bushels 
(ears) to the acre, or 6<;6 bushels on the two acres; good square measure. It yielded more than 
my other Corn did on any 4 acres. Every farmer that passed by the road said they never saw 
such heavy Corn. Am greatly obliged to you for sending me such good seed. — W. S. Arm- 
strong, Clifton Mills, 'W. Va.
