The corn is all very carefully resorted before it is shipped. 
REID’S YELLOW DENT CORN 
Reid’s Yellow Dent is a medium earl} 7 variety, a medium size ear with a bright 
yellow color, having a deep grain and very small red cob. It has from 18 to 22 rows 
of kernels, and cobs are nearer filled at both ends than any other variety. This variety 
is adapted to soil and climate conditions as far north as Iowa. And in recent years 
it is one of the most popular varities, noted for its high yield and excellent feeding 
qualities. It has been truthfully said, that three-fourths of the Yellow com planted 
in the co(rn belt was Reid’s Yellow Dent. Price, per bushel, $3.00; per one-half 
bushel, $1.75. 
BOONE COUNTY WHITE 
ALL SOLD 
A standard variety of white corn that has held a high place in the list of white 
ear corn ever since its introduction. 
I have made a specialty of breeding Boone County White seed corn for years and 
have experimented with eight other varieties, but have found the Boone County White 
superior to all others. Why? On account of its fine quality and large yield. It is 
famous because of the large amount of protein it contains, which is so necessary in 
raising young stock and feeding work horses. 
Boone County White has been tested in Ohio, Indiana, Illinois and Kansas with 
splendid results. It makes a strong and vigorous growth, making it valuable for 
ensilage. Under favorable conditions it matures in about one hundred and ten to 
one hundred and fifteen days. No other variety of white corn has shown like results, 
and we most heartily recommend it to the farmer and stock raiser. Price, per bushel, 
$3.00; one-half bushel, $1.75.

BROOM CORN CULTURE 
Broom corn is a tropical plant adapted to hot, dry weather, much as sugar cane or 
sorghum. It is produced with good results on any good corn land. The quality of 
brush depends on the soil and climate and quality of seed used, the best being raised 
in Central Illinois, Central Kansas and Oklahoma.
