RAISE WHITE CORN AND GET HIGHEST MARKET PRICES 
SOUTH DAKOTA WHITE DENT 
Gurney's South Dakota White Dent Corn 
originated in the Rosebud Section of South 
Dakota. It is a medium early, large white corn 
. . . early enough so that it gets ripe in the com¬ 
parative short season of the Rosebud Country, 
and still it is large enough so that in a good year, 
it will yield from 60 to 65 bushels per acre. 
The ears are from 8 to 10 inches long. The ker¬ 
nels are of medium depth and are not mixed with 
yellow in any way. Gurney’s South Dakota White 
Dent Corn will stand more drought than any 
corn we have ever raised. We firmly believe that 
this variety, over a period of years, will outyield 
any of the larger corns, because its early matur¬ 
ity assures a crop every year. 
During the last two or three years, White 
Corn in car lots has been worth from 5c to 15c 
more per bushel on the market than yellow 
varieties. It is used for White Corn Meal, 
Hominy, and for many other food purposes 
where yellow corn is not suitable. 
Our South Dakota White Dent Corn will give 
wonderful satisfaction anywhere in Nebraska, 
Southern South Dakota, Southern Minnesota, 
and Northern Iowa. 
Although our supply is limited and good seed 
is scarce, our prices are at the lowest level: 
1 lb., 20c; 14 lbs., $1.20;28 lbs., $2.10; 1 bu., 
$3.75; 5 bu., $18.25; 10 bu., $35.50. 
For the last four or five years, white corn 
has brought from 5c to 15c more per bushel 
on the market than yellow corn. 
NORTH DAKOTA 
WHITE DENT 
This extremely early White Dent Corn has 
been thoroughly tried out in the extreme north 
and has made good, maturing in North Dakota 
in any ordinary season. 
In size like Minnesota No. 13, Yellow Dent, 
and, like the No. 13, stands up well even in the 
extreme north. Stalks grow to a height of seven 
feet, ears are up three feet from the ground, 
making it easily harvested with the Corn Binder. 
It has been bred for yield and earliness, and 
will withstand more extremes of weather than 
any other Corn grown, with reasonably good 
farming, will yield 40 bushels to the acre.

NORTHWESTERN DENT 
Our supply of Northwestern Dent Corn is 
grown from Yankton to as far north as corn 
matured. We place this and August 15th at the 
head of the list of the earliest varieties of dent 
corn, suitable in most sections for the early 
hogging off. The very best in northern sections 
for the main crop variety. In the southern sec¬ 
tions, where on account of drought you failed to 
get a good crop last year, you should plant at 
least an acreage enough to supply your wants 
until the later varieties mature. 
Northwestern Dent is a red corn with a lighter 
colored cap. Stalks 6 to 7 feet tall, ears 7 to 10 
inches in length, and has produced 50 bushels 
of corn per acre at Yankton. 1 lb., 20c; 14 lbs., 
$1.40; 28 lbs., $2.50; 1 bu., $4.50; 5 bu.,

GURNEY’S PEDIGREED SEED GRAIN 
Many acres of land go to waste each year because seed grains are sown without much thought as to purity and quality. Fields infested with Mustard 
represent the result obtained from careless handling and purchase of poor quality seed. When uncleaned or impure seed grain is used for seed, noxious 
weeds are planted in a few hours which it takes years of effort to get rid of. Assure yourself of greater production by buying Gurney’s Pedigreed Seed.

RYE (Fall or Winter) 
For Pasture 
If planted in the spring, Winter Rye will make 
very few if any heads, but will continue to pro¬ 
duce leaves and make good pasture until late in 
the summer. Sweet clover can be planted with 
the rye at the rate of about 5 pounds per acre. 
This will make good pasture in the fall after the 
rye is gone. 14 lbs., 55c; 28 lbs., 85c; 1 bu.,

Bijou Hills, S. Dak. 
Gentlemen: 
In spite of the drouth last summer and 
the hot weather, I had the best garden 
around here. Of course, they were Gurney’s 
garden seeds. Every seed g r ew and produced 
enough vegetables for all winter’s use. This 
year it’s Gurney’s seeds again for me.

WHEAT 
© THATCHER 
This new wheat from the Minnesota Experi¬ 
ment Station has proved to be the highest 
yielding and most rust resistant of any wheat 
ever put out. 
During the rust epidemic of 1935 at Fargo, 
North Dakota, Thatcher yielded 33 bushels per 
acre, Ceres 22 bushels, and Marquis 13 bushels. 
In Yankton County the one small field of 
Thatcher wheat yielded 26 bushels per acre; 
other wheat made from nothing to 5 bushels 
of very poor quality wheat. 
Thatcher is a good milling wheat, grows on 
strong, stiff straw, and will stand up very well. 
Get started in this wonderful new wheat this 
year. Don’t take chances on losing your entire 
wheat crop from rust. 1 bu., $2.25; 2 bu.,$4.30;
