460 Bushels from a 2-Acre Field 
We have just finished husking a 2-acre lot of 
Corn raised from your Mammoth Yellow Flint 
Seed Corn, and the yield has been so good that 
1 cannot keep it to myself. We put into our 
crib, out of this 2-acre lot, 460 bushels of very 
fine Corn.—H. A. Medlong, Oswego, N. Y. 
DIBBLE’S Improved Early 
Leaming Corn 
Just 109 years ago (1826) a variety of 
Yellow Dent Corn was introduced to 
American farmers and named for the 
originator, Mr. J. B. Leaming. Soon 
“Leaming Corn,” through sheer merit, 
became the most popular of the Dent Corns. 
Dibble’s Improved Leaming is at least ten 
days earlier than the common Leaming of 
commerce. We recommend it as the most 
popular variety for ensilage purposes for 
the Middle and New England States. 
Our Improved Leaming matures here in 
western New York in from 100 to 110 days 
of good Corn weather; the stalks average 
from 10 to 15 feet in height, and we have 
put into our silos, many a time, 30 tons of 
ensilage per acre that would have husked 
100 to 125 bushels of ears. 
One of the professors of Cornell Uni¬ 
versity recommends Leaming as one of the 
best varieties of ensilage Corn. We our¬ 
selves have proved this in field-culture on 
our own seed farms, and it is a source of 
pleasure to have Cornell University advo¬ 
cate the very doctrine we have been trying 
to impress on the farmers of this state for 
thirty years. Dibble’s Improved Leaming 
is strictly high-grade, pedigree seed, from 
carefully selected, hand-picked ears, and 
sold to you subject to your own test. Keep 
it ten days and, if not right, return it and 
get your money back as per terms of our 
guarantee. You run absolutely no chance 
of using poor Seed Corn if you buy Dibble’s 
Improved Early Leaming. We shall be 
glad to send you samples free; so test them 
to your entire satisfaction. For prices, see 
special Price-List. 
DIBBLE’S MAMMOTH 
YELLOW FLINT CORN 
Is the best Flint Corn in cultivation either for crop or silo. It is the largest- 
growing Flint variety, and one of the earliest, maturing here in the Genesee Valley 
in around 100 days. The stalks average 8 to 10 feet in height (under good cultiva¬ 
tion sometimes 12 to 14 feet), from 1 to 3 feet taller than other Flint varieties we 
have grown alongside. The stalks leaf profusely nearly to the ground, and the 
stalks and leaves are sweet, making it the most desirable ensilage variety for those 
sections of our country known as “Flint Corn Land.” 
Dibble’s Mammoth Yellow Flint is, without doubt, the most productive Flint 
Corn known. As a cropper for husking, it is unexcelled. The ears average 10 to 
15 inches in length, and frequently there are two or three mammoth ears to a stalk. 
Throughout New York, the higher sections of New Jersey and Pennsylvania, 
and all of New England, Dibble’s Mammoth Yellow Flint is the best and the surest 
cropper. Every farmer should grow Corn and cut down on the feed-bills. A crib 
full of good, sound ear Corn will keep the stock fat and husky, and you do not have 
to plant all of your farm to fill a 1000-bushel crib, either. 
Our stock seed consisted of several bushels, every ear of which was over 12 
inches long, and many of them exceeded 15 inches.
