PRIDE of MINNESOTA 
A Brand New Extra Early Yellow Dent Corn 
that is destined to displace all others for car! iness, productiveness and adaptability to 
various soils and climates. It is the one corn for Minnesota. Iowa, South Dakota, 
Wisconsin and Illinois. Originated by Mr. P. Wchlander of Washington Co. 
Minn., after years of carefully sclcciine seed stock and growing. Pride of 
Minnesota took First Prize at theWashiiieton Co, Fair, last year in competition 
with Minnesota No. U. Pride of the North and Sure Crop. The Ears are of 
splendid appearance averagine 8}4 inches in length and arc borne two or 
three to a stalk. The Kernels are a rich yellow in color, smooth and 
packed closely on the Cob from Butt to Tip. The most important 
feature of tliis Corn is the smallncss of the Cob and depth of Kernels 
and it is indeed a rival in that respect to the Famous iowa Silver 
Mine. We have obtained the total stock of this new corn hut 
owing to it being the introducers first sea-

In selling you 
seed stock of Pride i 
nesota, I can tnithfu 
your statements madei 
to same. I have been w^pg^ „ . 
in agricultural pursuits for the past! 
twenty years and in th:it time I liavc 
/ tested nearly every vari ^of Seeu 
Com recommended to our ' iwge onli 
to find without exception it to. - JlespcJ 
ially good season to fully mature 4 cro ] 
This caused me to think, to study cortdition 
and finally to experiment in the development 
seeds. It took considerable time and labor, bu | 
was fully convinced that I could produce a variety f 
would adapt itself especially to our climate and also t- 
greater variety of soils and conditions. When Pride ot Mini.., 
took first premium at the Washington Co. Exhibit .ngalnst s\u*l 
high standard of varieties as Minnesota No. 13, and Sure Crop, I fell 
that my expectations w ere realized. Minnesota has now a Large Ear. L 
Yetloiu Dent Corn to be proud of. A variety which will produce results oil 
almost any soil or conditions and I firmly believe it to be the best Corn yeJ 
developed for Iowa, WisconsiiL 
Minnesota, South Dakota ZM\ 
Illinois.
