The Grandest of All Corns 
'Schell’s Big Yellow Seed IT 
PAYS TO CHANGE TO NEW 
SEED AND BETTER SEED 
FLASH! Schell’s Big Yellow Dent Wins Again! In a very expert and exact comparative test carried on in 1936 by the 
Hershey Estate Farms, Schell’s Big Yellow Dent outyielded all of the six standard varieties, producing 175.6 bushels of ear Com 
or 87.8 bushels of shelled Corn per acre, drilled; and 185 bushels of ear Corn or 92.85 bushels of shelled in a check-row test. Those 
it outyielded in the test were Golden Queen, Longs Champion, 90-Day, and Lancaster Sure Crop. It is the Corn for you to in¬ 
crease your profits. 
“Schell’s Big Yellow” Dent was originally bred from Improved Learning and Golden Dent. From these two good standard 
varieties it received its first good points of value. From Improved Learning it inherited the length of grain and the broad rich foliage 
of the fodder. From the Golden Dent it inherited the broadness of its grain, the larger number of rows of grains, and the very 
beautiful rich golden yellow color. It produces a crop of the most perfectly uniform ears and has averaged 81 bushels of shelled 
Corn per acre, which is almost twice as much as the average yield of other varieties as given by the Department of Agriculture, 
which average is but 40.3 bushels per acre. Why not grow twice as many bushels to each acre and double your profits? 
‘‘Schell’s Big Yellow” Dent is a Big Corn, yet Matures in 110 Days. The ears 
are immense, 12 to 14 inches long, with 20 to 24 rows of long, broad grains. It is 
without question one of the most valuable Yellow Dent Corns ever produced because 
of its immense yield—at least 50 per cent and often 100 per cent greater number of 
bushels to the acre than any of the average yields of other varieties. The 
stalks grow from 12 to 15 feet high, giving an immense quantity of fodder 
heavily covered with big, broad leaves. If you want the biggest and best crop 
in the neighborhood, then grow “Schell’s Big Yellow Dent.” Plant it in May 
and it will mature in September. Remember it takes no more seed, no more 
work in preparing the land, planting and cultivating to grow a big crop of 
“Schell’s Big Yellow” Dent than it does to grow a crop of common Corn. 
“Schell’s Big Yellow” will average 98 to 100 per cent germination. Prices:

Schell’s Ninety-Day Seed Corn 
After all, the real purpose in planting Corn is to get COHN, —all we can 
get of it,—not cobs, not fodder, but Corn —those golden rows of Corn which 
surround the cob. With this variety you gain 7 pounds per bushel or 700 
pounds to each 100 bushels, and 50 acres, averaging 100 bushels of ears, would 
mean 35,000 pounds more actual Corn or about 630 bushels gain. Every 70- 
pound bushel of ears makes 63 pounds of shelled Corn while other varieties 
make only 56 pounds shelled Corn to the bushel, so you gain 7 pounds on every 
bushel of ears. Its great value is in its earliness and the tremendous quantity 
of shelled Corn it produces. The fodder grows 8 to 10 feet high. You can plant 
this closer than the average and thus increase the yield. Ears average 10 inches 
long, with 16 rows of rich, dark yellow grains. Much preferred by millers who 
are ready to pay more for it. Do not delay sending your order, for the demand this 
year will be as great as ever. Our tests of this variety will average 98 to 100 per cent.

Mr. W. W. Johns, of Maryland, writes: “I have had wonderful results from your Schell’s Ninety-Day Corn. It helps pay off 
that old mortgage, for it yields more Corn per acre and it always matures a crop in the shortest season. My near-by neighbors 
laughed at me and said I would get nothing, but listen what happened—the next spring I sold them Schell’s Ninety-Day Corn.” 
W. S. Polley, Pennsylvania, writes: ‘‘From 6^ acres of Schell’s Ninety-Day Corn I harvested 1,012 bushels.” 
Schell*S Earlu Smohu Dent ^he ear li est Field Corn, ready to harvest 75 days after planting. A valuable variety for a 
“ “ quick Corn crop, for replanting other Corn crops when necessary, or to allow two crops, or 
for clearing the ground for fall seeding. The stocks grow 7 to 9 feet high, and the ears are 9 inches long, with 12 to 16 rows. It 
will mature also in New York, Vermont, and Maine. It has a distinctive color, a beautiful dark reddish yellow. Our germination 
tests on this variety are 98 to 100 per cent. Lb. 25 cts.; 5 lbs. 90 cts.; 14 lbs. (pk.) $1.60, postpaid. By freight, Pk. $1.25;
