Shumway’s Goliath Silo or Ensilage Seed Cai 
The World’s Greatest Yielder—-Many Report 50 to 75 Tons Per Acre. 
For many years I have worked on this World’s Famous Ensilage Corn, Selecting and Reselecting 
Pure Bred Seed and today I feel safe in saying it leads all others in growth of fodder-producing 
stalks 18 to 22 feet high. The leaves are broad and long, they start forming at the lower 
: AN end of the stalk and continue to the very top. It has a strong root system thereby not 
nN _ affected by wind or drought. I produce this seed South of the Ohio River and do not 
> Gan recommend it to ripen as far North as Rockford. It is solely a silo filler and one 
Ba _ acre will produce more tons of feed than 5 acres of ordinary corn. If you de-
