IMPROVED DENT 
This is a wonderful variety of. heavy producing yellow corn. 
Maturity about 110-115 days^ A heavy cropper. Illinois Spe¬ 
cial has been grown. throughout Central Illinois for many 
years. In recent years it has brought its astonishing yields to 
farmers in widely spread territory. We do not hesitate to rec¬ 
ommend it as the heaviest yielding variety we have.

Ears 10 to 12 inches in length and 7% to 8% inches in 
circumference. They are well shaped, well filled with 16 to 
18 rows. Fairly large cob. Kernels are rather dark yellow. 
Large germ making it a strong grower. This is a large type 
of corn that leads in production even under unfavorable con¬ 
ditions. 
Pride of the North 
Krug’s Dent has made a name for itself in the corn 
belt. Wherever grown it has proven an extraordinary 
producer. It ranks right along with our Illinois Special 
and is a little earlier in maturing.. This waS developed 
by crossing Reid’s Dent (smooth type) with the Gold 
Mine. We have records of a test of dozens of varieties 
that was conducted over a four-year period. Krugs proved 
the best yielder of all. 
Rich Color—Solid Ears 
The ears are a little smaller than our Illinois Special 
but they are very solid and are produced in great abun¬ 
dance. The deep yellow color speaks for its superior feed¬ 
ing value. Krug’s Dent gives you earliness plus heavy 
yields. This variety meets the needs of many corn belt 
farmers better than any other we know of. 
Our Pride of the North is a very popular variety. This va¬ 
riety is sometimes sold under different names. It ranks as a 
favorite with all who want a good producing early yellow 
variety. We have seen it outyield later varieties. 
Characteristics—The ears are medium size, about 8 or 9 
inches long. The Kernels are quite deep and of a rich yellow 
color. It has a pinched dent. Usually matures in 90 to 95 
days.
