Plant Tait’s Thoroughbred Seeds 
YELLOW FIELD CORNS 
This Spring treat your corn 
seed before planting. Prevent 
seedling blight, root rot and other 
diseases that cause losses of mil¬ 
lions of dollars to corn growers 
annually. 
Three years of practical use 
have proved the value of this new 
treatment. Increases in crop yield 
ranging from 10 per cent to 25 per 
cent have been reported from 
farmers throughout the entire 
country. 
Extensive tests on Dent and 
Sugar Corns show that treatment 
with SEMESAN JR. on nearly dis¬ 
ease-free corn seed gave an increase of 8.5 bushels per acre; on Diplodia infected 
seed 15.8 bushels, and on Gibberella infected seed 28.9 bushels. 
No special equipment is needed for this new seed treatment. No tiresome or 
lengthy procedure is involved. And the cost is less than 3c per acre. 
Corn treated with SEMESAN JR. permits Earlier planting, reduced Seed Decay, 
increases Germination, prevents Seedling Blight, Root and Stalk Rot, reduces the 
amount of “Down” Corn, and increases the Yield. 1 Pound Treats 6 Bushels of Corn.

Treated 
The piles of corn are yields from representative 50-hill 
sections of treated and untreated rows. In this case, an in¬ 
crease of 34.5% was obtained. 
Tait’s Thoroughbred Golden Make Quick. Fo 7; some tim ?.. we have been anxious to introduce an early 
_2_ — _yellow corn with a small cob that would produce two ears to 
the stalk, and we believe in “Golden Make Quick” we offer a corn that is nearly 
ideal. The ear is of good size. The cob is red and small. The grain is fairly 
deep and the right shape. The color is a beautiful deep yellow. The stalk is 
of medium size and makes sufficient fodder, and will mature a crop in less than a 
hundred days. It has been bred to produce two ears, and more of the stalks will bear 
two ears than any other yellow variety of which we know. A splendid sort to plant 
after the Irish potato crop has been harvested. Lb. 25 cts., 2 lbs. 40 cts., 5 lbs. 
65 cts., 10 lbs. $1.20. Postpaid. Bushel, 56 lbs., Freight or Express Collect, $2.50. 
Tait’s Thoroughbred Golden Wedge. The best yellow variety for 
_____— those who like a deep gram. 
The grain of this bright yellow corn approaches the ideal size and proportions more 
nearly than any other variety of corn that we have ever seen, and we find that the 
same impression has been made upon all the farmers who have seen it on the ear. 
The grain, being a real wedge—very long and tapering—is packed around the 
medium-sized cob in such a way as to secure the maximum amount of grain to 
the ear, while in weight and attractiveness of color it holds its own with any of the 
standard field varieties. Lb. 25 cts., 2 lbs. 45 cts., 5 lbs. 65 cts., 10 lbs. $1.20. 
Postpaid. Bushel, 56 lbs., Freight or Express Collect, $2.50.
