Hoffman's 
SEED CORN Good Insurance tor Paying Corn Crops 
"GOLDEN QUEEN" 
Here is a nice yellow corn quite popular 
in southeastern Pennsylvania. Rich color— 
high feed value. Ears good size, the rows 
nice and even. Good show corn. Makes a 
good, tall, leafy fodder. Grain medium size. 
Matures in mid-season. Not good in north. 
"8-ROW YELLOW FLINT" 
In higher and colder sections or where 
seasons are too short to mature the standard 
varieties of corn, Flint Corn can be grown 
with profit. The ears of Hoffman’s "8-Row 
Yellow Flint” are 9 to 11 inches long, often 
two to a stalk. Eight rows to an ear. This 
seed was grown in east-central Pennsylvania. 
“Your 90-day corn is an 
early variety, with good ears 
—one and two on a 12-foot 
stalk.” — Erwin J. Kelley, 
Camden, N. Y. 
"STOWELL'S EVERGREEN" 
SWEET CORN 
(Grown Here in Eastern Pennsylvania) 
Here is sweet corn seed of a good old 
stand-by variety. Properly cured. Shows 
good germination. 
Whether you need a few pounds or a 
few bushels of this seed, we urge early 
orders. Stock is not large. Prices are right! 
Don't Neglect the 
Orchard 
Alfalfa, Sweet Clover, Soy 
Beans, Red Clover, Vetch and 
Alsike can be used to good ad¬ 
vantage in improving orchard 
soils. 
Some of the non-legumes in 
most common use are the Mil¬ 
lets, Sudan Grass, Buckwheat, 
Blue Grass, Red Top and Rye. 
Combinations of these may 
be used to good advantage. For 
example, Millet and Soy Beans 
for a cover crop, or Blue Grass. 
Red Top, and Alsike for a sod. 
In an ORCHARD it is im¬ 
portant that a lime and fertilizer 
program be followed. Lime is 
usually required every five or 
six years. If the sod or cover 
crop is not properly fertilized, 
the trees will be robbed of 
some necessary fertility.
