FIELD 
We have always made a specialty of Seed Corn, supplying our 
trade with only those varieties that experience has proved are 
most suitable for the climate of Pennsylvania, Ohio, and West 
GOLDEN SURPRISE. An old-time variety maturing in 90 to 
95 days. Because of quality, yield, and color, Golden Surprise 
is one of our most popular Corns. Ears are good size, with 14 
to 18 rows of long, light orange kernels. A crackerjack good 
Corn for the crib, and has a host of friends. 
SCOTT’S SURE-CROP. The tremendous quantity of shelled 
Corn this variety produces to the acre surprises everyone who 
grows it. Generally there are two good ears to a stalk. The 
grain is very long—and the cob very thin. Has a rich, deep 
yellow grain, m^.king it much desired by millers. The fodder 
grows from 8 to 10 feet high. Ripens in 90 to 100 days. 
EARLY ORANGE YELLOW DENT. A 90-day Corn that is 
almost a giant, stalks ranging from 8 to 11 feet high. The ears 
are 8 to 10 inches long, with 16 rows on a red cob. One of the 
earliest maturing and prettiest yellow Dents in cultivation, 
which has made a reputation for yield and quality. 
PRIDE OF THE NORTH. A Yellow Dent variety, maturing in 
90 days. Ears 8 to 10 inches long, si.xteen rows on the ear, cob 
small, grain above medium size and closely set. One of the 
hardiest, and especially adapted to the northern planter; will 
mature farther north than any other Dent Corn. 
IMPROVED TEAMING. Matures in 90 to 100 days. Produces 
a good-sized ear, with deep, broad grains. A large, vigorous, 
and quick-growing sprout makes leafy fodder; one of the best 
varieties for silage. Improved Learning has yielded as high as 
75 bushels of shelled Corn per acre. 
CORN 
Virginia. Our Seed Corn is carefully hand-picked and tipped and 
butted before it is shelled. We aim to have every variety true to 
name and of high germination. 
WHITE-CAP YELLOW DENT. An early sort which grows 
well on light soil; grain is yellow with white tip. Nearly as 
early as Pride of the North, maturing in from 90 to 95 days. 
Ears about 10 inches long, well filled, with 16 Or 18 rows. 
HYBRID FIELD CORN 
The acreage planted to Hybrid Corn has been gradually in¬ 
creasing each year. Experiments have proved that Hybrids have 
more vigor, produce larger yields, and are more drought- and 
storm-resistant than open-pollinated varieties. 
We offer the following Hybrids which, in our opinion, are the 
best adaptable to this section. However, we will endeavor to 
supply any particular Hybrid a customer may wish to try. 
OHIO W17. In trial plantings made in Allegheny Copqty during 
season of 1938, this Hybrid made an aveffege yield of 72.78 
bushels per acre, a record which it continues to hold. Stalks 
are of medium height and leafy, ear about 8 inches in length, 
and kernel is light yellow in color. Medium early 
IOWA 939. Probably the best known Hybrid, and a good 
general-purpose Corn. Has stiff stalk, slightly taller than 
Ohio W17. Ears 9 inches long and the grain is a rich yellow. 
Medium early. 
OHIO K23. An early variety and suitable for territory suscep¬ 
tible to early frost, or on thinner soil. Stalks are short, deep 
green, and very leafy. Ears are low on the stalk, 7^ inches 
in length, and medium thick. 
ENSILAGE CORN 
HYBRID SWEEPSTAKES. Produced by crossing inbreds of 
the tallest Southern ensilage varieties with the highest grain- 
producing early northern Corns. Experiment stations and 
farmers report that it matures more grain and silage in short 
growing seasons than other ensilage varieties. Should be 
heavily fertilized to mature a desirable crop. 
LANCASTER COUNTY SURE-CR 9 P. Lancaster County 
Sure-Crop holds first place in the estimation of many leading 
farmers. It is a yellow Corn; ears 13 inches in length and not 
proportionately thick. It grows quite tall, is very leafy and 
develops ears early. Some farmers claim that for husking 
purposes it is just as valuable a variety as it is for ensilage. 
Write us for special prices and samples of Fiel 
EUREKA. (Virginia-grown.) A vigorous grower, often growing 
16 to 18 feet high; unusually heavy foliage, and produces from 
one to three ears to the stalk, according to the land. The grain

the Blue Ridge Mountains in Virginia, and makes an ideal 
ensilage Corn. Grows 14 to 16 feet high, full of leaves, and
