Big Crop Ensilage Corn 
Farmers and dairymen are depending more and more on ensilage and fodder 
corn for feeding their stock. To meet the demand for a first class variety the 
BIG CROP has been bred up with the object of developing to the highest degree 
these qualities: 
HEAVY TONNAGE OF STALKS 
CHOICE FEEDING PROPERTIES 
DESCRIPTION— The BIG CROP is a Medium Early Yellow Dent variety. Has a leafy, juicy 
stalk, from 10 to 14 feet high and usually two to three ears on a stalk when corn is not sown 
too thickly. In this latitude the corn starts to glaze in about 90 days from time of planting. 
GROW the BIG CROP and keep your stock in prime 
condition with fodder and ensilage from it 
With the BIG CROP, we believe it will be nothing unusual to obtain a crop of 
14 to 20 Tons Per Acre 
Waterloo Co., Ont. “The BIG CROP corn is coming on fine.” 
Jacob B. Snider 
Halton Co., Ont. “This is to certify that I have been growing 
all varieties of com for 12 years for Silo purposes, and 1 will say 
that the BIG CROP is the best that I have grown yet for Ensilage 
purposes, both for stalk and ear. I don’t think that there is any 
corn introduced yet to equal the BIG CROP for Ensilage.” 
James Murray. 
Lewis Co., N. Y. “Your Big Crop Corn which I sold last winter 
is doing fine, and is ahead of any other corn so far. 1 shall be 
able to sell it against anything else this year.” 
M. G. Robson 
Cayuga Co., N. Y. “The corn which you shipped came in good 
condition. My neighbors say the BIG CROP corn was the best 
they ever bought.” Fred H. Chapman 
N. B. Stalks for ensilage or fodder should not be cut too green, as they do not contain as much 
food value as those that are more mature, and ensilage from them is apt to be acid and watery.
