We Are Gambling With These Prices 
With the cool, late, wet spring we had and the prospects of an early, wet fall that will be hard on corn, these 
prices may be WAY TOO LOW. But I believe in giving the early buyer the best possible price so HERE’S 
YOUR CHANCE TO RESERVE YOUR CORN AT A REALLY LOW PRICE. 
I have no doubt that corn is going to be higher in the spring. It may even be, there won’t be enough high- 
germinating seed to go around. So here’s your chance, not only to get a real saving in price, but also to MAKE 
SURE YOU HAVE GOOD SEED FOR NEXT SPRING. BOOK YOUR CORN NOW. 
Buy Your Hybrid DIRECT . . . Save the Difference for Yourself 
Most of you know the agent who sells you corn makes from $1 to $3 per bu. commission for himself. That’s 
all right if you have plenty of money. 
But there’s really no sense in your having to pay from $10 to $30 extra when you buy 10 bushels of corn. 
You can BUY THAT CORN DIRECT FROM THE GROWER and SAVE THAT DIFFERENCE FOR YOURSELF. 
I always did believe in selling DIRECT TO YOU an‘ cutting out the middleman’s profit. That way you get 
the best seed possible and the best price, too. No reason why you shouldn’t get the same on hybrid corn.—H. F. 
Only od toe Per Bu. Down Payment 
This time of the year, most of us farmers are a little short of cash. That’s why I’m asking only $1.00 per 
bushel down payment to hold your corn for you at these very low opening prices. 
; Send your reservation now, WITH ONLY $1.00 per bu. just to bind the bargain on both of us, so I’ll stay 
hitched. Pay the balance just before the corn is shipped. That’s fair, isn’t it? 
FREIGHT PAID! 
Don’t let anyone tell you freight on corn is expensive. It isn’t. Just to prove it, for only 30c per bushel on 
my Mule-Hybrid corn, I’ll pay the freight anywhere in Iowa, Missouri, Kansas, Illinois, Minnesota, and Ne- 
braska. And for only 60c per bushel, I’ll pay the freight into any other state. Just add that amount per bu. to 
your order and say, send freight paid. : 
eee ee ere 
If for any reason you fail to get a stand on acreage planted with Mule Hybrid and you ‘dise up 
and replant to corn, we will furnish free, F.O0.B. growing station, seed to duplicate the amount of 
Mule Hybrid disced under—but only where the cause was reasonably traceable to the seed. In 
case of stand failure notify us immediately and in time to permit inspection of the field before it 
is disced. Notification must be in writing and at least two or more rows of the first planting must 
be left to permit fall inspection. 

.If after notification, it is found that no adapted seed is available for replacement, similar seed to 
replace acreage disced under will be furnished free for the next season’s planting. 
(Signed) Henry Field.
