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 fortu¬ 
nate to secure a supply. Post¬ 
paid. 1 lb., 30c. F. O. B. Bismarck, 
10 lbs., $1.25; Ms bu., $3.25; 1 bu. 
or more @ $0.00. 
SARVIS STRAIN RAINBOW. 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., 40c, postpaid. F. O. B. 
Bismarck, 10 lbs., $1.30; *4 bu., $3.50; 
1 bu. or more @ $6.50.

4X Fodder Corn, 
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 maximum quan¬ 
tity of fodder is produced and at the same 
time the stalks come near enough to ma¬ 
turity so that they are not all 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% bushels. F. O. B. Bismarck, 10 lbs., 
75c; */ 2 bu., $1.50; 1 bu., $2.75; 5 bu. or 
more @ $2.50. 
O TT\ 1 "\7 11 Earliest and Hardiest 
square Deal Yellow Dent C f Yeiiow Dents 
Square Deal was the first pure dent Corn intro¬ 
duced 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 con¬ 
tain from 12 to 16 rows, the 12 row ears predominat¬ 
ing. Stalks grow about seven feet, with the ears 
about two and one-half to three feet from the 
ground. It has the deepest kernel of any of the ac¬ 
climated varieties, and although the ears are 
smaller than the Northwestern Dent, it shells at 
least 10 per cent more. Lb., 30c, postpaid. F. O. B. 
Bismarck, 10 lbs., $1.30; % bu., $3.25; 1 bu. or more 
@ $ 0 . 00 . 
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., $1.25; 100 lbs., 
$ 11 . 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., $1.00. 
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. 
SANTEE MIXED. This is a late corn, very tall and 
with perfectly tremendous sized ears. Probably 
the source type for Rainbow. 
ZUNT-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. 
MAN DAN BLACK or PURPLE. One of the most 
interesting of the flour corn types from the Ft. 
Berthold Indians. 
WILD GOOSE 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. 
HOWE’S ALBERTA FLINT. A very small, orange 
yellow flint, about 3 ft. high and maturing in 50 
to 60 days. Originated at the experiment sta. of 
the Province of Alberta. 
MANDAN CLAY RED. Another of the several Man- 
dan varieties of flour corn, being distinct only as 
to color, which is most unusual. 
ZUNI BLUE. Another of the peculiar varieties from 
the Pueblo peoples of the Southwest desert coun¬ 
try. The most drought resistant varieties known. 
Of the small kernel flour corn type.
