THBILMANN SEED CO.’S CATALOGUE 
YELLOW DENT CORN—Continued 
Cut on page 29 shows a variety of corn that is adapted 
to about any latitude or locality where corn is grown for 
either grain or fodder; a good yellow corn, ears 10 to 12 
inches long, usually about 10 inches, 16 to 20 rows, grains 
solidly set on small red cob, is a strong grower with abun¬ 
dant foliage; combines the early qualities of Pride of North. 
It is an excellent all around variety of corn for all general 
purposes. Matures safely in 90 days with any decent 
weather, as we have the above corn grown here in Erie 
County. You will make no mistake in planting same for 
general crop. Ask for prices. 
EARLY WHITE CAP DENT— This excellent variety of 
early corn combines the earliness and hardiness of Pride of 
the North but ears larger than Pride of the North; it is a 
very dependable and highly yielding early corn and a great 
favorite with all who have grown it on account of its good 
yields and certainty of a good crop even where other sorts 
fail, or make weaker yields. The stalks are rather short 
but istout and robust, growing height 6 to 8 feet, dependent 
upon the land. Ears are of rather handsome appearance, 8 
to 10 inches long, well filled, small cob. The outer end of 
the grain or cap is white, deeply dented, while the inner 
portion is a clear amber yellow; it is a variety once tried 
will remain a favorite. Ask for prices. 
SEED CORN 
We are glad to say Corn was fully matured this season 
and our stock is fine; will test up to 90 per cent, and better 
for our locality through here. We would advise home¬ 
grown for ripening, as one season will not work with an¬ 
other. Our Silo Corn is grown in Ohio, except Sweepstakes 
and Sure Crop, which is grown in the south-eastern part 
of Pennsylvania; Eureka in Virginia. We can assure you 
the varieties are true to name and have given the best of 
satisfaction. Corn is the cheapest seed a man can cover 
an acre with. In the mean time if he loses a crop of corn 
he has lost one-third to one half of his entire crop—so buy 
the BEST SEEDS—WE HAVE THEM. 
Eight-Row Yellow. Our famous eight-rowed yellow flint, 
with ears from 12 to 15 inches long, cannot be equalled; 
small cob; beautiful bright golden yellow grains. Ripening 
very early, and good yielder. Ask for prices. 
Improved Learning. This is an improvement of the old 
Learning, mostly grown for silos in this section of the coun¬ 
try; in any kind of a section it will ripen. Ask for prices. 
Pride of the North. An early Dent variety, introduced 
several years ago, and as popular today as ever. We have 
the genuine variety. Ask for prices.

growth and rankness of the Red Cob Ensilage Corn. Ask 
for prices. 
Eureka Ensilage Corn. Grows the tallest and is the most leafy; will produce more good ma¬ 
terial for the silo than any other variety. Ask for prices. 
Sweepstakes. This corn has been tried out through this section for a number of years with very 
good results; it comes earlier than Learning and earn up well. This last season there were several 
farmers who saved their own seed; of course you are aware it was a good year for corn to ripen. 
The fodder is large, ears up well. We think it will take place of Learning. Ask for prices.
