Protect Your Corn Crop 
with Semesan Jr. 
11/, oz. will treat 1 bushel of seed. 
Semesan Jr. dry treat- 
ment of hybrid Sweet 
Corn helps to reduce 
the loss of seed through 
rotting, which is caused 
by the harmful fungi 
such as Diplodia and 
Gibberella, which are 
often present in the 
soil. Besides preventing 
missing hills due to this 
cause, it also improves stands and sturdi- 
ness of the corn seedlings and generally 
increases the yield. It is safe and easy to 
apply, and the cost per acre is negligible.

CREAM O’GOLD IS THE BERRIES. 
Your naming it Cream of Gold Deluxe is 
the berries. I don’t think you can ever 
improve on it. I call it the Ideal Sweet 
Corn. I wish everybody knew about it. I 
am sure you couldn't supply the demand. 
I just had to write you in appreciation of 
this wonderful corn. Many thanks. We 
will use Cream O’Gold Deluxe from now 
on, 
C, A. GREGORY, 
Binghamton, N. Y. 
First of all, I want to observe that in 
Henderson's Cream O’Gold Corn you have 
something very, very special. It was the 
only sweet corn around Bluffton that 
amounted to a hoot last year. We had a 
bad drought and the Golden Bantam and 
all other breeds just curled up and died. 
But the Cream O’Gold stayed green and 
sturdy and what we considered so sur- 
prising was that we did not find a single 
ear that was worm-infested. 
CHARLES C. MOSES, 
Buffton, S. C. 
I had some Cream O’Gold last year and 
two years ago and consider it the best I 
ever used.
