urney’s Trial Grounds 
“Hello Folks:-This is ‘D. B.’ at WNAX” 
Almost from the beginning, I have been closely associated with 
agriculture in the Prairie States. I have seen it develop from its 
simplest form, through various stages of expansion. I have seen the 
Corn Belt pushed three hundred miles north by the introduction of NEW short season varieties, 
and fruits have grown and flourished where no fruits had ever grown before. 
I am glad to have had some part in this expansion by trying out NEW plants and then growing 
and selling them throughout the Middle West. 
Each year we have offered SOMETHING NEW that has proved its value in our Trial Grounds and 
this year—1938—we have some things that are as good as The Hansen Hybrid Plums were twenty- 
five years ago. 
THE SUPPLY IS LIMITED, so it will have to be "first come, first served." This is a BANNER 
YEAR for New Varieties.

NEW VARIETIES FROM GURNEY'S 
THE NEW HANSEN APRICOTS 
For mqny years our South Dakota Plant 
Wizard, Prof. N. E. Hansen, has been 
working on the production of apricots. We 
>jiave twelve of his best. They are of very 
•jood sire and quality, are excel lent canned 
and, are hardy. We have the trees for the 
first time this year. PRICES: Each 85c; 6 for 
$4.50. One Ea. of 1 2 for $7.80. (See page 
57 for descriptions.) 
A NEW PEACH 
WAGONER—This is from a Seedling 
growing here in Yankton. Large in size. 
Excellent in quality and its yellow base 
almost entirely covered with red. The 
Wagoner has proved of unusual hardi¬ 
ness and surely is a leader in quality. 
Only a few available. While they last— 
75c each. (See page 51.) 
HYBRID CORN 
We are satisfied that HYBRID CORN 
has come to stay. Farmers of the Corn 
Belt have tried it out. It has produced 
better and more profitable crops. The 
returns have much more than covered the 
little extra cost per acre. 
Money spent for good Hybrid seed 
corn is an investment that will repay you 
many times the cost of the seed. We han¬ 
dle only good Hybrid corn. 
Good Hybrid Corn is drought resistant. 
It has shown its greatest superiority over 
other corn in dry, unfavorable seasons. 
Hybrid Corn would have increased the 
1937 South Dakota corn yield many 
million bushels. For complete description 
see page 40.

EARLY KALO 
EARLY KALO 
THE BEST GRAIN 
SORGHUM 
The 1937 corn crop in western Nebraska 
and the Dakotas was generally very poor 
— in many places a total failure. Grain 
sorghums, planted next to these dried up, 
barren corn fields, were green and thrifty, 
producing an abundance of grain and 
fodder. 
Early Kalo is the best grain sorghum for 
the North. It is an immense producer of 
grain. Yields of 75 bushels per acre have 
been reported. Matures a seed crop in 
about 90 days, and in a normal season 
will ripen in any part of South Dakota. 
This is one of the new better grain sor¬ 
ghums. The supply is limited. Order early 
before our stock is exhausted.
