WISCONSIN OPEN POLLINATED SEED CORN 
Murdock Yell ow Dent 
(WISCONSIN NO. 13.) 
Murdock Yellow Dent. 
SWEEPSTAKES CORN OF THE NORTH¬ 
ERN ZONE. 
Description: Murdock Yellow Dent - is of a 
deep yellow color, ears 8 y 2 to 9% inches in 
length, hard and solid, just slightly rough and 
very uniform in type. It makes a large heavy 
growth of stalk and leaf and so is a good silage 
variety. Murdock is not a lot different from 
Golden Glow but it grows a trifle larger both in 
stalk and ear and yields a trifle more. Not quite 
as early. Better for silage than Golden Glow. 
BRUECKNER MURDOCK. We handled Mr. 
Brueckner’s Murdock Yellow Dent for 13 con¬ 
secutive years up to the time of his death in 
1922, and he was selecting and further improv¬ 
ing the corn each year during all that time. 
Since his death his son, Leo Brueckner, has 
continued the work of developing and improv¬ 
ing, using his father’s methods. All the Brueck¬ 
ner Murdock we offer was grown by him. 
Certified (Brueckner Stock)— Prices: y 2 pk., 
50c; pk., 85c; bu., $3.00; 3 bus. at $2.95; 10 
bus. at $2.90. 
NORTHWESTERN DENT 
Another early variety, very popular in the 
Northwest. Reddish in color, with a fairly good 
sized ear, maturing ordinarily in 80 to 85 days. 
We recommend it for extreme northern Wiscon¬ 
sin and Minnesota and for North Dakota as a 
silo corn and in favorable seasons for husking.

$2.75; 3 bus. at $2.70; 10 bus. at $2.65.

No. 8 
(Early Yellow Dent) 
Best Husking Variety for Northern 
Wisconsin. 
Wisconsin No. 8 is probably the earliest of 
all dent varieties except Wisconsin No. 25. It 
came originally from Minnesota but has been 
developed and improved at the Wisconsin Ex¬ 
periment Station, the ears being materially 
lengthened without sacrificing the extreme earli¬ 
ness. Ears average 7 to 8 inches in length. 
Our stock is Northern Wisconsin grown. We 
recommend it as good a husking variety as 
there is for north-central Wisconsin.

HERO CORN GRADER 
A Corn Grader that is a real 
grader. You should plant ker- DbBTW# r'v.V-I'M I 
nels that are all alike in size 8sa| | I 
and shape if you want a per- '"SSSsT 
feet stand. 
Leading farmers and corn 
growers everywhere testify to 
the perfect work done by this 
grader. It will pav for itself 
in one season. Price, $17.00. 
Shipping wt., 70 lbs. 
(Plant 7 to 12 lbs. to the acre.) 
OUR CORN GROWN BY SPECIAL¬ 
ISTS. We have our corn grown, se¬ 
lected, sorted, dried and graded by a 
group of expert corn men in different 
parts of the state who grow the dif¬ 
ferent Wisconsin varieties on a large 
scale. All our Wisconsin corn is fire- 
dried and it is all from select ears. 
Most of our growers use the new 
Wright Corn Dryers. The corn is 
either tipped before shelling or thor¬ 
oughly graded after shelling with 
much of it graded with Hero Corn 
Graders. See below. 
CERTIFIED CORN. The Wisconsin 
Experiment Association certifies stocks 
of seed corn of the approved Wiscon¬ 
sin varieties grown by careful growers 
in accordance with their requirements. 
The corn must he grown at least 40 
rods from any other variety, must be 
true to type, practically free from 
mixture and show at least 95 per cent 
germination. 
WISCONSIN. This is all Wisconsin 
Grown Corn but is not State Sealed 
or Certified. 
HIGH YIELDING STRAINS. Olds’ 
seed corn will not only grow but it 
will produce high yields. Do not be 
careless about the seed you plant. 
Plant the best seed corn you can get 
as the cost an acre for good seed is 
slight. 
Cold Resistant Golden Glow. 
COLD RESISTANT GOLDEN 
GLOW 
EARLIER THAN GOLDEN GLOW AND THE 
BEST GOOD-SIZED CORN FOR CENTRAL 
AND UPPER WISCONSIN. 
Cold Resistant Golden Glow is a genuine 
Golden Glow with all the good qualities of that 
variety and in addition with the cold resistant 
features bred into it so it will stand unfavorable 
weather. 
It is just what its name indicates, a strain of 
Golden Glow that will resist the cold, unfavor¬ 
able weather we are so apt to have at corn plant¬ 
ing time and a little later on and permit earlier 
planting. 
Owing to the cool weather 'which frequently 
prevails during the early part of the growing 
season and retards the growth of corn, a strain 
was bred which will continue to grow under 
conditions too cool for ordinary varieties. This 
work was begun in 1914 by germinating six 
kernels from each of a large number of ears, 
in an ice box kept at a temperature of 42 to 45 
degrees F. After six years of selection, a strain 
of Golden Glow Corn was produced which will 
grow at a soil temperature several de¬ 
grees lower than that required for the 
standard Golden Glow strains. 
Our Wisconsin Cold Resistant is 
from Pierce County, northwestern Wis¬ 
consin. A lot of selection work has 
been put on it making it earlier. It 
runs a full week earlier in maturity 
than Golden Glow.

GOLDEN GLOW 
(Wisconsin No. 12) 
MOST POPULAR VARIETY OF CORN IN 
WISCONSIN. 
Golden Glow is the most popular variety of 
Wisconsin corn. It is grown more largely by far 
than any other. In fact, the statement has been 
made by our agronomists at the Wisconsin Col¬ 
lege of Agriculture that probably at least half of 
all the corn grown. in Wisconsin now is Golden 
Glow. It certainly is well adapted to all sections 
of the state as far north as north-central Wis¬ 
consin. It is a little earlier than either Murdock 
or Silver King, hence safer in an unfavorable 
season. 
Description. Golden Glow is a pure golden 
yellow corn, ears fairly large, the standard offi¬ 
cial length being 814 to 9 % inches. It is strictly 
a Wisconsin corn developed at the Wisconsin 
Experiment Station.

SEMESfiN, JR. 
MAKE SURE OF A BETTER CORN YIELD BY 
TREATING SEED WITH SEMESAN JR. 
Seed corn treatment with Semesan Jr. amounts 
to real crop insurance. At the extremely low 
cost of l%c an acre, it reduces seed rotting, 
checks seedling blight and certain seed-borne 
rots of root and stalk—gives corn the healthy 
start necessary for a big yield. Circular 444, 
Illinois, where the average yield increase has 
been about three bushels an acre, says Semesan 
Jr. is “one of the best disinfectants for seed 
corn now on the market.’ ’ Treats both seed field 
and sweet corn by the quick, easy dusting 
method. Only two ounces needed per bushel. 
Prices: 4-oz. size, 30c; by mail, 35c; 1-lb. size, 
75c; by mail, 85c; 5-lb. size, $3.25; by mail, 
$3.50; 25-lb. size, $14.00.
