New Crop Seed Corn Is Economical! 
• FULL VIGOR AND STRONG GERMINATION 
New crop corn gives you the maximum vigor and vitality. It has strong clean sprouts. These things 
are essential for a good uniform stand which is the start of a high yielding crop. In this connection re¬ 
member that old corn is slow to start in the spring. Judge for yourself what will result if slow germinat¬ 
ing corn is in the ground in a cold wet spring. Our experience favors NE.W CROP SEED CORN. 
• SEED PICKED AND STORED BEFORE EXTREME COLD, WET FALL WEATHER 
Our new crop corn was brought to our warehouses and stored before cold wet weather set in. Investi¬ 
gators of the United States Department of Agriculture and the various Experiment Stations have found 
that even dry corn is injured by cold. Not necessarily killed, but sapped of a little of the vigor and 
vitality needed to survive unfavorable spring weather. 
• GERMINATION GUARANTEED 
All our seed is shelled and graded from carefully selected seed ears. The germination is guaranteed to be 
95% or better. If it does not come up to this standard we want you to return it to us at our expense. In 
fact, our actual tests have shown from 97% to 100% germination. We are positive our seed is good. 
We have every confidence that it will make good. 
• BALANCE THE COST AGAINST THE CHANCES 
The cost of new crop seed will probably be 20e to 30c per acre more than old crop seed. Can you afford 
to take the chance of replanting after a cold wet spell or of going through the season with a thin stand 
for 25c per acre seed cost? Cost of labor alone for replynting is more than 25c per acre. At the most 
your total cost for the best quality new crop seed is only 50c to 60c per acre. Less than one bushel per 
acre of the corn you grow. Can you take chances?
