A glance at the above table will show the decided advantage of sowing the new 29-3 corn. It 
has a wonderful growth—18} tons per acre—equivalent to most commercial varieties of corn, 
besides an inherent ability to give immense yields of dry shelled corn. No other corn can claim so 
high a percentage of dry matter per acre and shelled corn per acre. With labor so short, why not 
fill your silo with a corn containing a low percentage of just plain water. 
CERTIFIED SEED 
This fine corn is beyond the experimental stage and is fast becoming a very popular variety. 
Hybrid corn costs a great deal more to develop and produce than open pollinated varieties, but 
this additional amount is balanced because a bushel of seed goes further (4-5 acres) and yields 
much more dry matter and corn per acre. The germination is very high.
