1125— BUCHANAN’S PAYMASTER (100 Days)—Originated in Middle 
Tennessee, where there are several counties that are noted for their 
heavy yields of corn, due to the fact that the soil of these counties 
contains the elements of potash and phosphate in abundance. These 
elements supplied by nature are the most important factors in pro¬ 
ducing not only heavy yields of com, but seed com of strong vitality. 
Buchanan’s Paymaster is suited for both lowlands and good uplands. 
It will produce a medium stalk with two good ears, broad white grains 
on a bright red cob—fills out well. 
Yz gal., 35c; 1 gal., 60c; 1 pk., $1.00; Yz bu., $1.65 
1126— TENNESSEE WHITE, RED COB (120 Days) — An extra large 
field com; grains long, broad and evenly lined on large red cob. The 
ears of this sort will rim from 9 to 12 inches long and have from 18 
to 20 rows. It is a rather late maturing sort, but for bottom land and 
main crop this corn cannot be excelled. This is one of the largest grain, 
greatest yielding and best milling corns grown in the South. 
Yz gal., 30c; 1 gal., 50c; 1 pk., 85c; Yz bu., $1.50 
1128—BUCHANAN’S CHAMPION WHITE DENT (90 Days)—It is the 
earliest large-eared white field corn known. It is an early White Dent, 
coming in almost as early as the Early Surprise, but much larger; 
sample ears have been shown us 14 inches in length and 3 Yz inches in 
diameter. For stock feeding it is very valuable; coming in as it does 
when all fodder is short, it fills a breach which all stock feeders can 
appreciate. Again, it is a corn that has made itself before the hot, dry 
weather and when other field varieties must make their growth. 
Yz gal., 35c; 1 gal., 60c; 1 pk., $1.00; Yz bu., $1.65 
1132— HICKORY KING (110 Days)—This is an entirely distinct variety 
among the white corns, combining the largest grain with the smallest 
cob. Ears fill out well and will make more shelled com to bulk of 
ears than any other variety. It is good for roasting ears to follow 1 
Early Surprise; makes splendid quality of corn meal. 
Yz gal., 35c; 1 gal., 60c; 1 pk., $1.00; Yz bu., $1.65

TENNESSEE CERTIFIED SEED CORN 
Inspected and Certified by the 
Tennessee Crop Improvement Association 
The certification of seed corn in Tennessee is handled about the same 
way as the certification of alfalfa seed in Kansas. For about five years 
we have handled two varieties of Tennessee Certified Seed Corn, the 
Paymaster and Jarvis Golden Prolific. 
CERTIFIED JARVIS —From two-eared plants or better, 12 rows to 
ear; white cob; grain hard in density, deep in color, slightly to mod¬ 
erately indented; ears 6 to 7 inches long, 1 Yz to 2 inches in diameter; 
cobs 1 inch or less in diameter. 
CERTIFIED NEAL PAYMASTER —From two-eared plants or better; 
12 to 14 rows to ear; medium to hard density; medium to rough (deep) 
indentation; red cob. Ears 6 to 7 inches long, 1% to 2 inches in diam¬ 
eter. Grain is not pure white, but somewhat creamy. 
Either Variety —Yz gal., 50c; 1 gal., 90c; 1 pk., $1.50; Yz bu., $2.50 
ALL SEED CORNS SHOULD BE TREATED 
WITH SEMESAN, JR. 
This treatment hastens and increases germina¬ 
tion, increases the yield, protects corn from rot¬ 
ting, allows earlier planting, produces sturdy 
plants, controls seeding blight and reduces root 
rot which makes the stalk stand up better—see 
page 65. All seed corn is cleaned, tested and 
shipped in our printed new bags. The actual cost 
of seed to plant an acre of corn is so little you 
cannot afford to plant run-out corn of uncertain 
variety and germination.
