Michell’s Seed Corn produces extra bushels per acre 

MICHELL'S SELECTED HAND-PICKED 
FIELD CORN 
Plant 8 to 10 quarts per acre in hills for shelled Corn or for silo, or sow 114 to 2 bushels 
broadcast for fodder 
Our strains of Corn are not the common kinds usually found in abundance on the market. 
We give very careful attention to selected stock in all lines of farm seeds. This is particularly 
true of Field Corn where re-selection means the limit of crop with little or no increase in cost. 
Our stock is selected for size of ear and fodder, uniformity of kernel, and the careful finish of 
the tip and butt, all of which means a considerable increase in production. Field Corn weighs 
56 pounds per bushel.

Maturity 100-105 days 
Approx. ten days earlier than Lancaster 
County Sure Crop. Adapted to a wide range 
of conditions. Ears are cylindrical shaped;

with cattle feeders because of non-flinty 
kernel. Excellent results reported from many 
Pennsylvania counties.

caster County Sure Crop. A _ high-yielding

of grain. Thin cob, grain very hard and of a 
deep golden color. 
Eureka Ensilage 
Silage 115 days 
While this variety will not mature ears in 
northern localities, it is considered as one of 
the best ensilage varieties. Grows very tall 
and leafy, giving heavy tonnage. 
Our Eureka is of an extra heavy yielding 
strain and should not be confused with the 
ordinary type of this variety.

climatic and soil conditions and will with- 
stand drought. A favorite among large 
dairymen because it provides plenty of silage 
with rich feed value. Grows tall, leafy stalks; 
long ear with thin cob—high in protein, husks 
easily, shells well, rich yellow. 
Reist’s Sweepstakes 
(Improved West Branch) 
Silage 90 days—Grain 95 days 
This variety of Sweepstakes is of our 
grower’s own origination and so popular that 
we have never been able to fill the demand 
for it. A mixed color corn, some grains are 
yellow with touches of red, while others are 
red with pale caps. Large ear with wide 
grains. More tons per acre for the silo.

most of the Dent varieties.

broad heavy ears—an extra good sheller.

SOY BEANS 
(Inoculate with LEGUME-AID) 
This valuable plant enriches the ground in 
which it is planted by the free nitrogen 
gathered from the air which is deposited in 
the ground by the roots. Fodder is relished 
in either green or dry form by cattle. Sow 
11% bushels per acre alone, or 50 pounds, in 
drills 214 feet apart, during May or June. If 
wanted for silo it will be ready for harvest 
about the first of September, when the pods 
will be well filled. Yields as high as 20 tons of 
green feed per acre. 60 pounds per bushel.

excellent variety for milling. Qt. 15c. 

BARLEY

cured as hay, and the grain in the hull is ex- 
cellent poultry-feed. If wanted for hay it 
should be cut while the grain-head is in a 
soft or milky condition. Sow broadcast, 14% 
to 2 bushels per acre, from April to July 1. 
48 pounds per bushel. Makes an ideal nurse 
crop for spring-sown alfalfa. Frequently 
yields 50 bushels per acre. Qt. 15c.
