FORREST’S HONEST SEEDS 
FODDER and ENSILAGE CORN 
Sent on Approval 
Corn is one of the most critical seeds we look after in this section. How many farmers right in 
our own section buy cheap seed corn, and then wait for it to come up, but it never comes, and 
then they have an empty silo. If you could only see some of our corn growing the past year 
from our seeds, we would have you for a life-long customer. Our corn is selected for seed, planted 
for seed, and harvested for seed; well matured, cured, and carefully selected, and nothing but the 
choicest is sent out. 11 is all tested, and if it is not satisfactory on arrival, it may be returned at 
our expense, and money refunded. If you are interested in corn write us; we want to talk with 
you. 
Minnesota King—A yellow half-dent northern field corn. This new corn is widely advertised 
as the most valuable early field corn ever sent out. We have reports from its ripening as far north 
as Vermont, in the poor corn years of 1903, 1904. The introducers claim that no other sort will 
produce so largely and do so well one year with another as Minnesota King. It is able to endure 
conditions of both wet and drouth with remarkable success. It seems particularly adapted to 
locations where short seasons and early frosts make corn an uncertain crop. Honest pkt. 5c, lb 
20c, postpaid. Pk. 50c, bu. SI.50, 23^ bu. bag, $3.50. 
Forrest’s Improved Early Mastodon—For height of stalk, amount of foliage, and amount 
and size of ears, we believe this is the best corn in existence, and will give more fodder to the acre 
than any other corn. It grows quick, strong, rank, and makes the finest looking shelled corn of 
them all. For ensilage it is one of the best, if not the best, but can not be relied upon for ripening 
in this climate. Honest pkt. 5c, lb. 20c, postpaid. Pk. 50c, bu. SI.60, 2^ bu. bag, $3.75. 
Huron Early Dent, Early Golden Dent, Eighty-day Golden Dent, Waterloo Extra 
Early, Etc.—This splendid new variety is being put out by as many different names as there are 
seedsmen. It is as its name implies, an extra early dent corn that will ripen in northern localities, 
formerly able to grow only flint varieties; has a good sized stalk and ear, bright orange color, 
deep grain, and small red cob. Honest pkt. 5c, lb. 20c, postpaid. Pk. 50c, bu. $1.60, 2¥ z bu. 
bag, $3.75. 
King of the Earlies—A new, very early maturing, dent corn; maturing with us from 80 to 
90 days. The stalks are slender, about 6 feet high, and about every stalk producing two good 
ears; ears 8 to 10 inches long, 14 to 16 rowed, with the smallest cob we have ever seen, and will 
consequently shell more corn to the bushel. Very productive, and we recommend it to the north¬ 
ern farmers to try by the side of flint varieties. Honest pkt. 5c, lb. 20, postpaid. Bu. $1.60, 
2}/2 bu. bag, $3.75.
