Square Deal 
Yellow Dent 
Square Deal Yellow Dent 
Earliest and Hardiest of Yellow Dents 
Square Deal was the first pure dent Corn introduced by 
us and still holds first place for earliness and hardiness 
in the Yellow Dent group. It was selected by Oscar H. 
Will and first grown in 1904. It is partial to a heavy, well 
watered soil and is not well adapted to light and dry 
locations. 
Square Deal is a true yellow dent with a red cob. The 
ears grow six to eight inches in length and contain from 
12 to 16 rows, the 12 row ears predominating. Stalks 
grow about seven feet, with the ears about two and one- 
half to three feet from the ground. It has the 
tleepest kernel of any of the acclimated varie¬ 
ties, and although the ears are smaller than 
the Northwestern Dent, it shells at least 10 per 
cent more. Lb., 30c, postpaid. F. O. B. Bis¬ 
marck, 10 lbs., 50c; Yz fou., $1.25; bu., $2.15; 5 
bu. @ $2.00. 
Rainbow Flint 
for Fodder and Silage 
RAINBOW FLINT (late S. D. strain). Rainbow seems to be definitely the best silage corn for the North¬ 
west. Even this year, though it produced few ears, still it did make a wonderful lot of feed and silage. 
Good seed is very scarce this fall and we feel that we were fortunate to secure a supply. Postpaid, 1 lb., 
30c. F. O. B. Bismarck, 10 lbs., 60c; % bu., $1.25; bu., $2.25; 5 bu. @ $2.10. 
SARVIS STRAIN RAINBOW. We are 
more convinced than last year 
when we first introduced this 
strain of RAINBOW that it is the 
outstanding type for North Da¬ 
kota, Montana and Canada. It has 
been selected by Mr. John Sarvis 
of the U. S. Great Plains Experi¬ 
ment Station at Mandan. It retains 
the tallness, leafiness and tremendous 
size of ears and possesses an earliness 
which makes sure a high quality of 
feed, although still late enough to be 
uncertain as a ripe ear producer. 
Most drouth resistant of all silage va¬ 
rieties. Lb., 30c, postpaid. F. O. B. 
Bismarck, 10 lbs., 60c; Yz bu., $1.40; 
bu., $2,50; 5 bu. @ $2.40. 
Rainbow Flint 
4X FODDER CORN—TALL, LEAFY 
The 4X is, we consider, the very best procurable 
fodder Corn for Northwestern conditions. We get 
this grown just far enough south so that the maxi¬ 
mum quantity of fodder is produced and at the 
same time the stalks come near enough to maturity 
so that they are not ail water. The best time to 
cut Corn for fodder is when the kernels are just 
past the roasting ear stage. Sow or drill ten pounds 
to one-half bushel per acre, if planted in rows 3 to 
4 feet apart; if broadcast, use about 2 y 2 bushels.

5 bu. @ $1.30. 
ACME FODDER CORN 
The Best Silage Corn for the Northwest 
Acme fodder is a mixture of off type dent corn 
or of the local mixed strains or other early dents 
of which we may have an extra amount. Being a 
mixture it is ranker and more luxuriant in growth 
and a heavier producer. For this reason it is espe¬ 
cially valuable for silage. It is easily handled with 
a binder and gives just about the right degree of 
maturity early enough for silo filling. F. O. B. Bis¬ 
marck, 10 lbs., 30c; Yz bu., 85c; bu., $1.60; 5 bu. @ 
$1.50. 
SWEET FODDER CORN 
Wonderful Feed for Milch Cows 
Sweet Fodder is coming to occupy a place of very 
high esteem as a feed for milch cows. Owing to the 
fact that its sugar content is so high it is a more 
concentrated feed than the ordinary Corn. It is 
likewise a heavy yielder as it is so bushy, and there 
are no heavy, coarse stalks which are usually waste. 
Prices are very reasonable this year. Lb., 30c, post¬ 
paid. F. O. B. Bismarck. 10 lbs., $1.00; 25 lbs., $2.25; 
50 lbs., $4.00; 100 lbs.. $7.00. 
INTERESTING AND UNUSUAL CORN VARIETIES FOR TRIAL 
We know that many of our customers are interested in experimental work with Corn and in the obser¬ 
vation of novel and little known sorts. We have therefore listed here a few of the many unusual types 
that we are constantly growing and observing, and we hope to present others each year. 
Price, lb,, postpaid, 40c, f. o. b. Bismarck, 5 lbs., 60c; 10 lbs., $1.00. 
ZUNI-PERUVIAN RED HYBRID. This is an inter¬ 
esting Corn, particularly on account of the very 
dark reddish purple color which in many of the 
plants dominates ear, cob, stalk and leaves. It 
has possibilities as an ornamental. 
DAKOTA GOLD. A cross between Mandan yellow 
flour corn and Wisconsin Golden Glow. 
MANDAN BLACK or PURPLE. One of the most 
interesting of the flour corn types from the Ft. 
Berthold Indians. 
MANDAN YELLOW FLOUR. The “Mother” corn 
of the Mandan tribe and an excellent sort for 
hogging off, a good yielder. 
WILD G'OOSE CORN. This is a type of squaw corn 
which we have grown for trial and which seems 
to possess a great deal of vigor. Supposed to 
have originated from corn found in the crop of a 
wild goose, the source of which is of course un¬ 
known. 
HOPI WHITE FLOUR. This is one of the distinc¬ 
tive sorts from the Pueblo Indians of the South¬ 
west, which are the most drouth resistant varie¬ 
ties of which we know. 
PAWNEE SWEET CORN. The original sweet va¬ 
riety grown by the Pawnee Indians in prehistoric 
times. A tall, late yellow variety with very leafy 
habit. 
MANDAN YELLOW FLINT. Said by the Ft. Ber¬ 
thold Indians to be their very earliest and most 
cold resistant sort. 
DAUPHIN FLINT. This is an extra early yellow 
flint developed Northwest of Winnipeg and espe¬ 
cially cold resistant. 
BEAR ISLAND. A large eared Squaw corn from 
the Chippewa of Northern Minnesota. Adapted 
to cool, moist conditions and very prolific. 
SANTEE MIXED. This is a late corn, very tall and 
with perfectly tremendous sized ears. Probably 
the source type for Rainbow.
