FARM SEED PRICE LIST 
Farm Seed prices are steady with little change expected, duality in most 
all cases very good. 
Hybrid Seed Corn 
Our Hybrid Seed Corn is moving now. Ship¬ 
ments are being made daily. The new thickness 
and length grading machines, which we installed 
this year, have made a remarkable improvement 
in our grades. Our Seed matured fine and is of 
excellent quality. Other Companies claim to have 
better Hybrids but Ohio Official tests show Ohio 
Hybrids are best. We have the following to offer; 
Ohio K 23 
Ohio K 35 
Iowa 939 
Ohio W 17 
Ills. 172 
U. S. 65 
U. S. 52 
Ohio C 14 
U. S. 13 
Ind. 614 
Ill. 960 
U. S. 44 
Ohio L 31 
Price are firm with growers finding they do not 
have as much seed as was first thot. We are 
making a fancy Buckeye Grade for those want¬ 
ing double extra quality. Our commercial grade 
corresponds very favorably to the average first 
grade of seed sold by most growers. Our Smadl 
Flats are graded even and a regular stand can 
be had by using them. A special grader is used 
to improve the grading of Rounds. Prices are 
as follows for all Hybrids; 
Buckeye Flats, per bu.$6.00 
Commercial Flats, per bu. 6.00 
Small Flats, per bu... 4.00 
Round Grains, per bu. 4.00 
Hybrid Sweet Corn 
Hybrid Sweet Corn is increasing in use each 
year. Its more vigorous growth, bigger yield of 
better flavored corn is demonstrating its value 
both for the home garden and commercially. 
Our early Sweet Corns are produced in the east 
and the drouth last summer decreased the yields 
materially. We received only a small part of our 
Span Cross C. 2 order and we are already out of 
this Hybrid. We, however, still have Marcross 
C 13.6 which is equally good and just as early. 
We recommend this early Hybrid to you. Prices 
are firm and higher because of the shortage. 
Our quotations, however, are the same as our 
Catalog. 1

Marcross C 13.6 Golden Cross Bantam 
Spancross P 39 Purgold
