MORTGAGE LIFTER YELLOW DENT 
This new and distinct Yellow Dent Field Corn was introduced several years ago and it has given our customers great satisfaction wherever grown. 
A large corn grower in Loraine Co,, <>., says : "While visiting the World’s Fair I procured a few grains from an ear which was a sport found in a field: 
>n Iowa, and pronounced it the most beautiful ear of corn at the fair. That is how this, splendid variety found its way into the east and from these few 
grains wo have bred out this Yellow Field Corn, which we do not think can bo surpa33od. The grains are the largest of any large ear variety in 
cultivation. The stalks grow very quick, rank and green and will stand storms to a remarkable degree. Those who have grown the Mastodon, Chester 
County Mammoth, Klondike, Learning, Iowa Gold Mine, Champion White Pearl, Mills' Golden Superior, Golden Beauty, White Cap Yellow Dent and 
Early Butler say that this corn will out yield any of them. We have records of fiolds producing 107 bushels and 118 bushels of corn per acre. The 
largest grower of seed corn in America says it will mature in from‘85 to 95 days, and has 14 to 24 rows on a cob and the longest and largest of any 
early corn in cutivation.” Describing it he says ; “Mortgage Lifter is the most beautiful Yellow Dent Com ever seen. It will mature in 85 to 95 days 
and it has the largest grains of any early yellow corn in cultivation. It grows from 7 to'11 feet high, strong, rank and quick, and stands storms 
remarkably. The ears are of a very large size and will out yield any other corn grown. It huT.cs and shells easily, brings the highest market price 
as it will sell for seed on sight. It will cure O' . in the shock where large cob varieties will mold and spoil.” 
The above is what the originate said of this variety and while thousands of bushels of this sort has been sold for seed, we are glad to say that 
our customers are much pleased wv i it and we believe it a hard variety to surpass. We have a very fine stock of extra choice seed which we can
