HIGHLY YIELDING—DEPENDABLE SELECTED—HARDY GOOD GERMINATION 
ADAPTED STRAINS NONE BETTER 00% OR BETTER 
We have taken special care and have spared neither time nor effort in the selection of our Seed 
Corn stocks. Our representative makes personal inspection and investigations and obtains the coopera¬ 
tion of the county agent for recommendations and history of approved Seed Corn stocks. 
We pay particular attention to selecting the earliest strains of each variety offered. Especial em¬ 
phasis is given to type, yield and germination. 
We thus reduce your risk, increase your yields and for ourselves obtain a booster and a customer 
for years to follow. The benefit becomes mutual.

Dent Corn 
NORTHWESTERN DENT— Northwestern Dent is gen¬ 
erally conceded to be the most popular variety in 
the semi-dent class. It is not only early maturing 
but is an excellent yielder in grain production or 
from a silage standpoint in tonnage per acre; under 
average conditions it will mature in from 85 to 
100 days. 
MINNESOTA 23—Minnesota 23 is a white capped yel¬ 
low dent. Our stocks have been produced from the 
popular certified Coleman early and Typy strain. 
It is one of the very earliest of the semi-dent group, 
maturing in from 85 to 95 days. It is non-sucker- 
ing, carries ears at a convenient height for the har¬ 
vesting and is a good yielder. Fast gaining over 
the other semi-dents in popularity. 
PIONEER WHITE DENT, or RUSTLERS WHITE 
DENT —This is now recognized under the general 
name of Pioneer White Dent and is the earliest of 
the true dent varieties, maturing in from 85 to 95 
days under average Montana conditions. It is not 
only a dependable grain producer but also a fair 
silage producer if desired for that purpose. 
MINNESOTA 13—Minnesota 13 has rightfully earned 
its high rank as a Montana Corn. It yields well 
and matures early, although not quite as early as 
the other dents or semi-dents mentioned, its average 
being from 90 to 105 days, which makes it safe as 
a Montana Corn under anything like normal years. 
The strain we offer has been a remarkable yielder 
and for the past seven years has matured at an 
altitude over 3,400 feet. 
FALCONER — Every year this wonderful semi-dent 
proves more and more its very great value to the 
Northwest. Acclimated by nearly forty years of 
growing, and carefully selected, it improves each 
year. It is earlier than any of the dents, and heav¬ 
ier, being a descendant from the original native 
. Indian Corn, and it has consistently outyielded all 
other sorts year in and year out with us. The color 
is a somewhat uneven yellow, rows eight to twelve, 
and ears very large. It grows tall enough on the 
stalk to be handled with a corn binder. 
Early Flint Corn 
GEHU —The best known of our native early flints; 
might well be called the Universal Corn. It has 
been carefully bred by us for nearly forty years 
and shows the effect of this breeding. Its feeding 
qualities are the highest of any variety of Corn; 
it is leafy and produces a tremendous amount of 
excellent fodder, since there is no heavy stalk and 
every part of the plant is utilized. It is drought, 
frost and hail resistant to a wonderful extent in 
addition to its great earliness. In good soil and 
under favorable conditions it may be cut with a 
corn binder. 
NORTH DAKOTA WHITE FLINT— North Dakota 
White Flint is one of the earliest of the standard 
varieties of flint Corn. It is a low-growing type 
from 4 to 5 feet and matures in about 80 days. It 
is especially adapted to early hogging down as the 
ears grow close to the ground. 
THE ORIGINAL DAKOTA SQUAW OR RAINBOW 
FLINT— This is a mixed form of the early flint. It 
has reatined its popularity through many years, on 
account of its extreme earliness and unusual hardi¬ 
ness. It is very resistant to both drought and 
frost and fully as heavy a yielder as any variety 
of early flint. It is a flint Corn of mixed colors, 
yellow, white, blue and red predominating; ears 
long and slender, mostly eight rowed. 
SEMESAN JR. — This modified form of the patent 
product, Semesan, is exclusively a dust disinfectant 
used principally for the ear, root and stalk rots 
of field and sweet Corn but also for the treatment 
of cereal infections. Under Government-conducted 
field tests, Semesan Jr. increased the crop yields 
from diseased field Corn seeds by approximately 
twenty bushels to the acre and from similarly dis¬ 
eased Sweet Corn by as much as 47.7% with an 
average of pracitcally 12%.
