R.B. BUCHANAN SEED CQ 
MEMPHIS, TENNESSEE. 
1134—MEXICAN JUNE, NATIVE GROWN (65 to 85 days)—Original 
: was handed down by the American Indian—it is very much like 
| Squaw or Indian Corn grown by Mexicans, Indians and those farmers 
of the very dry farming lands of our Southwest. Forty-two years 
ago, when I began selling this (original) Mexican June, I spoke and 
wrote of it as the last excuse for corn, it would make some corn 
planted in July, followed by severe drouth, when all other corns 
would fail. Realizing that this was a very unprofitable crop for the 
Middle South, I began about 15 years ago to have growers improve 
this variety by crossing it with Tennessee Champion White Dent, in 
an endeavor to retain the drouth-resisting qualities of the original 
Mexican June and producing the larger ear of the White Dent. 
Ears 8 to 9 inches long, grains short to medium, cobs medium in 
size, and while usually white, red cobs are often found. Ears have 
mostly white grains, but dark blue and red grains often appear, some¬ 
times only one to three to the ear. This apparent mixture of color is 
peculiar to many varieties of Mexican corn. Mexican June also makes 
fine “roasting” ears for use right up to frost. 
It is a great drouth resister and usually, if there is enough moisture 
to sprout the seed, a crop is assured. If wanted mostly for forage or 
ensilage, plant in April or May. Early planting makes stalks 12 to 15 
feet high, leaves, 4 to 6 feet long. 
Price Post Paid —Vz gal., 45c; 1 gal., 65c; peck, $1.15; Vi bu., $2.15 
1133—BUCHANAN’S BIG WHITE JUNE (80 to 85 Days)—A white 
corn, medium large ears, prolific two eared type. A little earlier than 
90 day varieties. Planted early it usually matures before dry weather 
sets in. An excellent corn to plant for quick feed crop. 
Vz gal., 45c; 1 gal., 65c; 1 pk., $1.10; Vz bu., $2.00 
1130—WISCONSIN WHITE DENT (75 days)—A Northern grown, very 
early corn, highly recommended where an early feed crop is needed 
or for producing roasting ears for market. It will prove its worth to 
the man who is short of feed and needs a corn to make quickly. 
Price —Vz gal., 45c; 1 gal., 65c; 1 pk., $1.15; Vz bu., $2.15 
1144—BUCHANAN’S (JARVIS) GOLDEN PROLIFIC—A yellow pro¬ 
lific corn with husk covering the ears so completely and tightly that 
it is practically impossible for any bird or weevil to get to the com in 
the field. It is the hardest grained and makes the most solid ear of any 
yellow corn that we know, with the exception of the Cuban Yellow 
Flint. It resists drouth remarkably well, produces two good medium- 
size ears to the stalk and is in great demand on the Memphis market for 
roasting ears. Price —Vz gal., 35c; 1 gal., 50c; peck, 95c; Vz bu. $1.80 
1139—TENNESSEE YELLOW DENT (90 Days)—My most popular vari¬ 
ety of yellow field corn, produces a medium stalk with two good ears 
of uniform size and shape, 8 to 10 inches long, with 14 to 18 straight 
rows of yellow kernels on a medium-sized red cob, and ears are well 
filled out over tip. Tennessee Yellow Dent is often called drouth 
resister, as it will produce more corn on our thin uplands during a 
drouth year than any other known com. 
Price —Vz gal., 35c; 1 gal., 50c; peck, $1.00; Vz bu., $1.90 
ALL SEED CORNS SHOULD BE TREATED 
WITH SEMESAN, JR. 
This treatment hastens and increases germina¬ 
tion, increases the yield, protects corn from rot¬ 
ting, allows earlier planting, produces sturdy 
plants, controls seeding blight and reduces root 
rot which makes the stalk stand up better—see 
Index. All seed corn is cleaned, tested and 
shipped in our printed new bags. The actual cost 
of seed to plant an acre of com is so little you 
cannot afford to plant run-out corn of uncertain 
variety and germination.
