DEWOLF’S EXTRA PROLIFIC 
See Colored Picture TL 
on Front Cover Jf 
This is another production of the late M. J. 
DeWolf. This corn matures well to the central 
part of South Dakota and can be grown in the 
same district as improved Minnesota No. 13, 
but will outyield it. This bright, yellow corn will 
outyield any other early corn and should be plan¬ 
ted in the central half of South Dakota and 
southern Minnesota. We believe that if you will 
try this corn one year you will discard the corn 
you are now growing and plant DeWolf’s Prolific 
exclusively. 1 lb., 20c; 14 lbs., $1.25; 28 lbs., 
§2.25; 1 bu„ $4.00; 5 bu., $19.50; 10 bu., $38.00. 
GURNEY’S AUGUST 15th 
The Earliest Dent Corn Grown 
This corn is of our own origination and is 
nearly identical with Minnesota No. 23. Ours 
was introduced and catalogued by us one year 
previous to the Minnesota stations sending out 
their No. 23. Produces a medium sized ear of 
light yellow corn with a white cap. It is extra 
early. The ears of August 15th are almost per¬ 
fect in shape and it is a very desirable corn 
for early feeding for August, and especially 
valuable for the main crop variety for the extreme 
north, even into central Canada. It has saved 
the pocketbook of the southern farmer by fur¬ 
nishing him feed long before any other varieties. 
Plant it for hogging off. Your hogs will enjoy 
a scrap with a good field of Aug. 15th. Plant it by 
mid-May and you can husk it on the 15th of Aug¬ 
ust. 1 lb., 20c; 14 lbs., $1.40; 28 lbs., $2.50; 
1 bu., $4.50; 5 bu., $22.00; 10 bu., $43.00. 
Wimple’s Yellow Dent 
WIMPLE'S YELLOW DENT 
A famous Dakota variety of corn. It originated 
with Mr. Wimple, a corn specialist of South 
Dakota, and is now largely planted over the corn 
belt throughout the northern states. This 
variety, which has had a lot of careful work put 
on it, is a bright yellow corn, producing kernels 
of unusual depth. It gives good results anywhere 
south of central South Dakota, southern coun¬ 
ties in Minnesota and all points south. The ears 
grow well upon the stalk and the stalks are from 
7 to 9 feet high. 1 lb., 20c; 14 lbs., $1.20; 28 lbs., 
$2.10; 1 bu., $3.75; 5 bu., $18.25; 10 bu., $35.50. 
RED COB ENSILAGE CORN 
Among all the varieties of Ensilage corn, this 
one gives the greatest amount of green forage 
per acre, amounting on rich land and proper 
cultivation to as much as 10 tons. The fodder 
is sweet, tender and juicy, growing to a height 
of 8 to 12 feet. It is easier, and the first cost 
is less, to sow the ordinary field corn for ensilage 
purposes, but the thoughtful farmer will con¬ 
sider quantity and quality of the products as of 
first importance. 28 lbs., $1.85; 1 bu., $3.45; 5 
bu., $16.75; 10 bu., $32.50. 
PRIZE WINNING CORN 
The Wimple’s, Reid’s and DeWolf’s j 
j corn we are offering is all from prize i 
j winning strains. 
REID'S YELLOW DENT 
We have grown and selected a Reid’s Yellow 
Dent that would be satisfactory to the planter 
in the southern tier of counties in South Dakota, 
northern Nebraska and northern Iowa. Reid’s 
Yellow Dent is the ideal corn where it can be 
safely grown. It is too late for any place north 
of the north line of Iowa. Our Reid's corn will 
please you in every way. It is early enough to 
get perfectly ripe in a normal season and large 
enough to produce an immense crop. 1 lb., 20c; 
14 lbs., $1.25; 28 lbs., $2.25; 1 bu., $4.00; 
5 bu., $19.50; 10 bu., $38.00. 
EARLY MURDOCK 
Early Murdock is a high yielding yellow corn, 
slightly larger and rougher than Minnesota No. 
13. Is nearly as early and can be planted in the 
southern two-thirds of South Dakota and the 
southern one-third of Minnesota. 
The stalks are strong, grow from 6 to 8 feet 
tall, and many stalks produce two ears. A very 
good main crop corn for the North. 1 lb., 20c; 
14 lbs., $1.20; 28 lbs., $2.10; 1 bu., $3.75; 
5 bu., $18.25; 10 bu., $35.50. 
GEHU FLINT 
The earliest flint corn grown. Makes good 
yields of both corn and fodder. A small yellow 
flint which produces from 2 to 3 ears on a 
stalk. Fine for late planting or for hogging 
down. 1 lb., 20c; 14 lbs., $1.40; 28 lbs., $2.50; 
1 bu., $4.50; 5 bu., $22.00. 
A 15 Inch Ear of Rainbow Flint 
The largest eared, highest yielding, early 
and catalogued for the first time in 1915. 
This is a variety of corn that we are proud of. It is the corn child that 
we think more of than any other. Several years ago, Professor Hansen was 
visiting us while attending the State Horticulture meeting. As usual, he 
was talking of the production and the method of production of new varieties. 
We finally talked corn, and the Mendel theories of production. Professor 
Hansen made the statement that if we would secure somewhere a variety 
of inbred corn, the longer it had been bred the better; go in another direc¬ 
tion and secure another variety, inbred just as long so that there would 
be no danger of these two lots being related in any way; place each variety 
in separate planters, planting two rows of one variety, then two rows of 
the other; then detassel one of the varieties and save it for seed, then we 
would receive from this seed a remarkable yield of corn, but that we must 
not continue it beyond one year, as the chances were almost 1 to 1,000 that 
the second year it would degenerate and show the bad traits of both parents. 
We planted the seed as directed by him, and produced a wonderful yield 
of remarkable, large ears of early maturing flint corn, of about every color 
you can think of. The yield was so great, and so much better than either 
parent, that we thought we would take that one chance and try it again. 
Time has proven that we struck the one chance in the thousand, and pro¬ 
duced a wonderful flint corn. It is getting to be standard everywhere, as 
the largest producer of corn and fodder, the finest to look at, and one of 
the earliest to mature. It is not unusual to produce a very large percentage 
of 14-inch ears of 14 and 16 rows. 1 lb., 20c; 14 lbs., $1.40; 28 lbs., 
$2.50; 1 bu., $4.50; 5 bu., $22.00; 10 bu., $43.00.
