Plant 7 pounds per acre.

For Roasting 
Kilgore’s field corn seed is grown in isolated 
fields from the highest yielding pedigreed 
strains. The most perfect ears are selected, 
carefully dried and run over a long conveyor 
table, where expert corn pickers throw out 
every ear that is unsound, diseased or off-type. 
Only large ears with deep grain, straight rows 
and good tip and butt are saved. Each ear is 
hand tipped and butted, shelled and carefully 
graded to remove cracked or oversized grains. 
Corn is a very economical crop to grow. It 
fits splendidly as a follow crop, sufficient fer¬ 
tilizer being left from previous vegetable crops 
to produce a good Corn crop. When the Corn is 
being laid by, sow cowpeas, beggarweed, soy 
beans, velvet beans, etc., between the rows, 
which may be plowed under after the corn is 
harvested thus greatly improving the soil for 
succeeding vegetable crops. 
Treat corn seed with Pyrox and keep the 
birds away. Pyrox also aids germination and 
helps secure a better stand. (See page 56.) 
FLORIDENT WHITE No. 686. (New) (95 days.) This is a 
new field corn, developed by the Florida Agricultural Ex¬ 
periment Station by selection from their pedigreed Florida 
686 . Florident White is considered to be one of the best pro¬ 
lific field corns for Florida. The stock seed is selected each 
year from the most prolific plants, which produce two or 
three ears per plant, making this variety a very heavy yielder. 
The large ears are covered with hard, white, semi-flint kernels 
on a red cob, protected by a long, tight, tough husk.

Flint). (92 days.) The small white cob is covered with long, 
deep, white, semi-flint grains. It is a heavy yielder and the 
husk grows well down over the end of the ear, which fur¬ 
nishes protection against weevils, worms and birds. This va¬ 
riety is very highly recommended as one of the best, medium¬ 
sized ear, white corns for general farm planting in Florida.
