Michels’ Seed Corn 
Good seed corn is more scarce this year than it has been any year since 1918. Most of the seed saved will 
not germinate over 80%. Such com lacks the vigor necessary to produce a full crop. Thicker planting will not 
make up for weak sprouts. 
MICHELS’ seed corn has earned a wide reputation for high germination and big crops regardless of how 
poor the quality of the average seed on the market. Look back over the bad years when farmers had so much 
grief getting good stands and you will recall that those who used Michels’ seed corn had no worries and harvest¬ 
ed big crops. We point with pride to the quality of our seed corn in 1910, in 1914, in 1918, in 1924, in 1926 
and our stock in 1936 is as good as any we have ever had. 
MICHELS’ seed corn is produced under most careful management. It is dried in a plant that is not excelled 
in efficiency anywhere in the world. The few cents per acre which this high grade seed costs you will yield you 
many dollars in a better com crop. 
Everyone knows MICHELS’ SEED CORN always grows! 
Our home grown stocks of seed corn germinate better than 
95% as do also most of our present stocks of later varieties.
