SILVERMINE (w) 
A popular variety in the Rio Grande Valley often used for roasting ears and 
also for silage. Well adapted to river soils in Texas, responds to irrigation. 
Plants relatively tall, stalks somewhat slender but strong, sturdy and quite uni- 
form, ears long and cylindrical, with tight fitting husks; kernels white, medium 
in size, tight set, slightly hard (vitreous), rough to dimple dent, in 16-18 straight 
rows; cob white, medium size. Shellout percentage high, and a good milling 
variety. 120 days

WHITE JUNE (w) 
Our improved strain, introduced in 1942. Popular as a roasting ear variety for 
early and late planting, chiefly in the Rio Grande Valley. Possesses the drought- 
resistance of June corn and the milling qualities of the best Surcropper types. 
Plants medium, vigorous, strong, sturdy; ears slightly tapered, medium to large, 
with 12-14 straight rows, well filled at the ends, with 5-7 layers of coarse, thick, 
long husks, affording resistance to ear worm in roasting ear stage, and pro- 
tection from weevils, bird damage and weather damage at maturity. Kernels 
white, thick, smooth to dimple dent, not hard, with large germ; cob white, 
medium sized. Holds well in roasting ear stage, and is of exceptionally good 
flavor. 115 days 

White June: the improved Asgrow strain 
WHITE SURCROPPER (w) 
The most widely adapted variety for early and late planting in Texas and the 
Southwest. Originated and introduced in 1909 by A. M. Ferguson, pioneer Texas 
plant breeder and grower. More esteemed for its very excellent milling quali- 
ties than its average yields. Used also for roasting ears. Plants stout, strong, 
with vigorous root system, drought resistant; husk coverage ample for protec- 
tion against weather, worm and weevil. Ears medium to large, 12-14 rowed; 
kernels large and of good depth, white, broad, flat, with large germ, hardness 
varies from slightly chalky to somewhat hard or vitreous, smooth to slightly 
rough dent; cob white, medium to large. 115 days
