Open Pollinated Varieties 
COLORADO No. 13—A selection out of Minnesota 
No. 13 by our State Agricultural College, bred 
for earliness and high yielding quality. The 
most widely used yellow dent variety, maturing 
in 100 to 110 days. 
MINNESOTA No. 13—Is one of the most popular 
Yellow Dent Corn for Colorado and the western 
states. It is early maturing, stalks are tall and 
leafy, and is excellent for grain or silage. 
COLORADO YELLOW DENT —\This is a variety of 
Yellow Dent Corn developed in Colorado and is 
especially well adapted for planting in the dry- 
land districts and in the north, as it is very 
drought resisting and matures early. Fine for 
grain, fodder or ensilage. 
COLORADO WHITE DENT—A corn very similar to 
Colorado Yellow Dent except in color. A White 
Dent variety that has been bred for earliness and 
will make a better yield per acre than the Yellow 
Dents, especially on thin soils. 
IOWA SILVERMINE (Coleorade Grown Seed)—A 
pure white variety that has been bred up so it 
will mature in sections that have a longer growing 
season than required for the early Yellow Dent 
varieties. Fine for ensilage in most sections. 
REID’S YELLOW DENT—A variety largely grown 
in the Arkansas Valley of Colorado and matures 
about 10 days later than Minnesota No. 13. Stalks 
very leafy and fine for ensilage. 
EARLY YELLOW FLINT (Gehu Type)—Flint Corns 
are the earliest. varieties, maturing in 80 days 
and are adapted for growing in sections where 
the Dents do not mature. Used mainly where 
early grain is desired or for hogging down as 
the ears are close to the ground. 
WHITE AUSTRALIAN—Is a hard Flint corn, adapted 
for cool climates, short seasons, and dry lands. 
Ears are of medium size; kernels are white, 
smooth, shallow, rounded and flinty. 
BLUE SQUAW—Is extremely early and of very 
dwarf habits. Average length of ears 7% inches, 
grain of dark purple color and sugary. Better 
for hogging down than the White or Yellow Flints 
as the grain is not as hard. Ready to use in 
about 70 days. 
RAINBOW FLINT—This is an early maturing corn 
and is very desirable for dry lands and short sea- 
sons. It is a flint resembling White Australian in 
habit and size of kernels. The grains are varie- 
gated and highly colored.

Broom Corn 
The Broom Corns are distinguished by their dry, pithy 
o 
_stalks and by their long, loose, open heads called brush. 
The heads, which are the important part of the crop, are 
used in making brooms and brushes. Plant about June Ist 
in rows 3% feet apart, using about 8 lb. of seed per acre. 
BLACK SPANISH—This variety is fast supplanting 
all others with growers who market brush. It is 
similar in growth to the Oklahoma Dwarf Ever- 
green with the exception that practically all the 
seed grows in a ball on the top of the brush. This 
characteristic simplifies seeding operations and en- 
hances the value of the brush.
