FODDER AND FLINT CORN 
Flint Com Varieties 
For Prices See Blue Figure List. 
We feature the outstanding Flint Corn varieties which 
vary from early to medium late maturity and which are 
high yielding, both from the standpoint of ripe corn and 
fodder. Our seed stocks produced here in Minnesota have 
always given the best of satisfaction because of their ex¬ 
treme hardiness and earliness. (See Blue Figure Price 
List.) 
CANADA SMUT NOSE FLINT 
This variety produces stalks averaging 7 ft. in height 
and often bear two to three ears per stalk which are 10 
to 15 in. long. The ears are yellow in color and blazed 
with red at the tips. This variety ripens in 90 to 95 days. 
It is popular for hogging down purposes and in northern 
sections is grown very extensively for silage and fodder. 
(See Blue Figure Price List.) 
LONGFELLOW FLINT 
This yellow Flint variety produces stalks averaging 7 to 
7% ft. in height and often bears two to three ears per stalk, 
averaging 1 10 to 14 in. in length. It matures in 85 to 90 
days. Longfellow Flint is a producer of fine quality fod¬ 
der as well as high yields of ears. (See Blue Figure Price 
List.) 
RAINBOW FLINT 
Rainbow Flint is a larger and later variety than the 
other Flints, maturing in about 100 to 110 days or about 
the same time as the medium early dent varieties. Conse¬ 
quently it will produce a large crop of ripe corn in south¬ 
ern Minnesota, Wisconsin and South Dakota, also northern 
Nebraska, Iowa and similar territories. This variety is so 
named because the kernels exhibit a wide range of color, 
corresponding to the colors of the rainbow. Rainbow Flint 
produces very high yields of high quality fodder and ears 
10 to 12 in. in length. We have some very outstanding 
seed stocks to offer, all Minnesota grown. (See Blue Fig¬ 
ure Price List.) 
Ideal Silo Com 
Registered and State Sealed 
An Origination of the Farmer Seed & Nursery 
Company. Greatest tonnage per acre. 
Ideal Silo Corn is the greatest yielder of corn 
for fodder purposes, for feeding green, for en¬ 
silage, and for curing in the bundle. 
Originated by us, to give the largest tonnage 
in stalks and leaves—and well developed ears, 
that will make a balanced ration ensilage. It 
is not coarse like southern fodder, and does not 
grow all to leaves and water. 
This strong, vigorous variety produces stalks 
8 to 10 feet high, with broad thick leaves, mak¬ 
ing large quantities of high quality succulent 
fodder. Ears 8 to 10 inches long, with medium 
deep yellow kernels. Matures in about 110 days. 
Our farmer friends report Ideal Silo Corn to 
fill silos with half the usual acreage. Many 
have filled silos 12x30 with corn from four 
acres, and 12x3 5 with corn from five acres, 
when with ordinary corn from 10 to 12 acres 
would be required to fill the same silos. 
Demand Always Exceeds Supply 
The demand in previous years has exceeded 
the supply of seed, and although we have a fair 
stock of the finest quality seed this year, and 
the lowest prices in years, we urge our friends 
to order early. 
A down payment of 25% will hold your corn 
order until March 15th, at which time the bal¬ 
ance is due. For Prices See Blue Figure List. 
"HYBRID" SILO CORN 
Because of the outstanding characteristics, hybrids are 
well adapted for silage. Many customers have asked that 
we offer hybrid corn for silage because of its superiority 
to other kinds. 
These qualities which make hybrid suitable for silage 
are— 
1. Produces an increased tonnage of 25%; more than 
enough to pay the extra seed costs. 
2. Does not lodge and is easily cut with a binder. 
3. Grows to a uniform height. 
4. Stalks and leaves stay green longer. 
5. Resists cold, drought and heat. 
6. Produces well-developed, uniform-sized ears. 
We have a limited amount of large type hybrid corn 
in this special lot taken from our regular registered stock. 
For Prices See Blue Figure List.

A very vigorous grower, this variety will produce stalks 
9 to 10 feet high. It increases the production of dairy 
cows. Other livestock thrive on it and make rapid gains. 
The stalks are sweet, tender, juicy and nutritious with ' 
large broad leaves produced in great abundance. The ears 
are large, having 16 to 20 rows of kernels and are white 
in color. There are 48 lbs. per bushel of Sweet Fodder 
Corn. Plant 15 to 20 lbs. per acre. See Blue Figure Price

YELLOW DENT FODDER 
CORN 
Standard varieties that have given our 
customers very good satisfaction for many

curing in shocks to be fed later in the 
bundle.
