Heavyweight Sure Crop 

Heavyweight Sure Crop. Attention, farmers! Here is 
just the type of Corn you’ve been wanting for years, 
a type which combines all the good qualities of both 
our Yellow Dent and Sure Crop varieties, and 
eliminates the poor qualities of each. This Corn, 
developed in the eastern section of our rich Garden- 
Spot County, has increased rapidly in demand among 
local farmers, and now, after several very successful 
years of growth, we are assured it is. just the type a 
great many farmers are seeking. It matures about 
as early as our famous Lancaster County Sure Crop 
and grows just about as tall. The ears are borne 
very close to the ground, a factor which holds it 
erect throughout the season, and frequently one stalk 
will produce two large ears. It produces a very close- 
grained, compact, full ear, ofttimes reaching 12 inches 
in length and from 2 to 2% inches in diameter, with 
a very thin cob. The grains are deep and broad and 
have a light cap, giving the ear a light yellow color. 
With these qualities combined there Is not another 
variety grown that will give you as much good, solid 
Corn as this newest of all varieties. Be sure to try 
several acres this year and you will never want any- 
thing else. See Price-List. 
Bountiful Yellow Dent. One of the most profitable 
varieties to grow, and very popular in this part of 
Pennsylvania. It matures in 105 days, about 10 days 
later than Improved Leaming. Because of its great 
root-development it will withstand more drought 
throughout the season than any other variety. It is 
an exceptionally strong, robust grower, and con- 
sidered one of the best varieties in cultivation where 
the season is not too short. We do not recommend 
it in the extreme northern part of Pennsylvania and 
New York State. The ears attain an immense size, 
and because of its medium-sized cob it is a 
profitable Corn to shell. One bushel shelled Corn 
will plant 8 acres. See Price-List. 

Grow Your Own Protein. Many have found it profitable 
to grow Soy Beans to put in the silo with corn.

CORN 
Rohrer’s 90-Day Yellow Dent. The earliest variety 
listed. It is a splendid, beautifully colored golden 
yellow Dent Corn. The ears grow to a fairly good 
size, 7 to 9 inches Iong, with 16 to 18 rows on a beau- 
tiful red cob. Its grains are of good length and the 
fodder grows 8 to 11 feet high. Where the season 
is short you will find this variety profitable to grow. 
See Price-List. 
Lancaster County Sure Crop. One of the best va- 
rieties for cribbing as well as a silage Corn. It is 
recommended very highly by many farm bureau 
agents, and some of the best dairy farmers grow it 
exclusively for ensilage. The fodder is very tall and 
leafy. It withstands drought and develops ears 
early. The ears are very long, but not very thick. 
Grains are filled out well at both ends; cob ts very 
thin and therefore shells very easily. Lancaster 
County Sure Crop contains more protein than any 
other Corn we know. It is a sure cropper and will 
mature in any part of Pennsylvania and Ohio. See 
Price-List. 
Red-Cob Ensilage. Has a long, narrow, white grain 
and is sold as a special Ensilage Corn. Grows tall 
and is prolific in leaves. In the North where the 
season Is short, the Corn will not fully mature. We 
can recommend this variety where the season Is not 
too short. We furnish fine-quality seed. AII our 
Seed Corn germinates 90 per cent or better. See 
Price-List. 
Eureka Ensilage. The largest-growing ensilage Corn 
in existence Is grown in Virginia. This is a white 
Corn and has very large, flat, square kernels. Ma- 
tures late. Believe Eureka Ensilage will grow more 
tonnage per acre than any other variety grown. 
See Price-List.
