ALNEER BROTHERS RELIABLE SEEDS, ROCKFORD, ILL. 35 
RELIABLE FIELD AND FARM SEEDS 
Nothing is more important to the farmer than that the seed he sows is pure and clean. The seed should also be plump, and well ripened, 
so as to insure a good stand. First class, thoroughly recleaned seed, even though considerably more costly in the beginning, is really 
much cheaper in the end than the light chaffy grades generally sold at much lower prices, even if the latter is free from weed seeds, 
Prices subject to change without notice, owing to the fluctuations of the market. Write for prices on large quantities. 
HYBRID CORN 
HYBRID CORN will yield from 10 to 30 per cent over ordinary 
varieties, this is due to practically every stalk producing a large, 
well developed ear, practically no barren stalks or nubbins. 
HYBRID CORN has a wonderfully strong root system. It will 
stand up where ordinary varieties lodge. This feature alone is 
worth many times what,it costs to plant Hybrid Corn; this corn 
is remarkably free from smut and root and ear rot. 
HYBRID CORN grows strong and vigorous even in dry sea- 
sons. The stalks and leaves remain green until the ear is ripe.
