“West Branch 
Sweepstakes” 
Seed Corn 
This is a silage variety, widely used in several Northern 
States. Originated in northern-central Pennsylvania. Is not 
a corn that would take prizes at a beauty show—for its 
grains represent quite a mixture of color. Red to yellow, 
with many in-between shades of both running through it. 
In spite of any undesirable color or other traits present in 
this strain, it has one main feature that makes it so popular. 
. . . It is a good practical variety—that grows a dependable 
stand of fodder season after season. Great numbers of 
northern dairymen use it and always get a lot of feed. 
Maybe as with people—it isn’t always the best-looking 
fellow who makes the best farmer . . . other traits often 
have more value than good looks. That’s the way many 
folks regard "West Branch Sweepstakes’’ Corn. Suggest 
early orders for any amount wanted. See Price List. 
“White Cap 
Yellow Dent” 
Seed Corn 
A fine husking corn . . . one of the most successful on 
this whole list. Ears are white, but when shelled the sides 
of the grains show a good healthy yellow. A big yielder. 
Lots of shelled corn. Compact ears. Cob not large. Rows 
closely set on cob. Fairly large grains . . . long and wide. 
Does well on poor soils. Good on rich soils of course, but 
will do better than most corns on soils of average fertility. 
Medium early corn. 
Matures nicely in Southern 
Pennsylvania, New Jersey 
and Ohio, except in high¬ 
est altitudes. Good ears 
come from stalk after stalk 
—that’s where its good 
yields come from. Famous 
prize-winning strain. In¬ 
deed one of our most val¬ 
uable corns. Makes many 
new friends each year. 
“White Cap Yellow Dent 
Corn—surpassed any other 
corn we have ever 
had, both as to 
quality and yield.”
