CERTIFIED SEED CORN 
West Branch Sweepstakes - Cornell No. 11 
YOU GET THE CORN DIRECT 
This year we have made arrangements to take orders and have the corn shipped direct 
from the growers’ farm here in New York State C. O. D. to the purchaser. No one touches the 
corn except you and the grower. 
Air Drying Seed Corn 
This is the most excellent method of curing seed corn where conditions are favorable. Here on the shore of one 
of the finger lakes our seed corn is grown until it is fully ripe and then thoroughly air dried, as freezing weather is 
unknown until very late. Proper curing is the secret of good seed corn. 
CORNELL NO. 11 AND WEST BRANCH SWEEPSTAKES ARE BEST ADAPTED TO 
NEW YORK STATE 
Our State College recommends these two varieties for silage purposes in this state. Use 
Cornell No. 11 for sections having an elevation of 1,000 feet or over and a growing season of 100 
to 110 days. Use West Branch for elevations of less than 1,000 feet and growing conditions 
with 110 to 120 days. 
FIRST PRIZE AT NEW YORK STATE FAIR 1933 
Our grower took first prize with both varieties at the STATE FAIR in 1933. We have used 
his seed for six years and always had excellent stands. We believe 9 or 10 quarts per acre ample 
for silage. Such seed is a money saver. 
PRICE—Either Variety 
$2.50 per bushel, F.O.B., Levanna, N. Y. Corn can be shipped C.O.D. by express or by 
freight sight draft any date you wish. If by express give name of your town where express 
office is located and if by freight give name of your bank. 
This seed is field selected from standing stock and all in the driers by October 12, which 
gives ample time to be fully cured before freezing weather.
