FIELD CORNS—BEST FOR THE SOUTH 
Sentell White Dent. The leading white 
dent variety of Louisiana. Bred in Caddo 
parish and has made largest yield of North 
Louisiana Experiment Station many 
years. Has large ears 8 to 10 inches long, 
medium stalk, white cob, white grain, 
well covered with heavy shuck protecting 
well from weevil. A hard Dent Corn 
suited for feed and meal. 
Calhoun Red Cob. White Dent with 
kernels shading yellow toward cob; ears 
large; sure yielder. Most largely planted 
of all varieties and wonderfully popular 
with farmers. Ears are 8 to 10 inches long; 
deep kernels; red cob. Ears are uniform, 
well covered with shuck and fill out well 
even to the nubbins. 
Hastings Prolific. Requires a fairly long 
season to develop hard Corn—110 to 120 
days. Stalk is large, 8 to 12 feet tall, 
according to soil and season, rooting 
deeply. Stalk and blades are large and 
vigorous. Ears of medium size, 2 or more 
to the stalk, depending on the distance 
given and the growing conditions. On 
good strong land, where Corn has distance 
of 2 to 21% feet in the row, it often makes 
4 to 6 ears to a stalk. Consistently pro- 
duces high yields and is adapted to hitls 
and bottoms. Ears small but shell out 
90 per cent grain. 
Mosbys Prolific. Similar to Hastings 
but larger ears, with the same type small 
cob and deep kernel. If you do not like 
the many small ears of Hastings, plant 
Mosby and get fewer and bigger ears. 
Improved Surecropper. Most exten- 
sively planted white variety In Texas. The

farmer knows that it makes, wet or dry, 
and that it Is the safest Corn to grow as 
dry weather is sure to come. They call it 
Big Cobbed and Light, yet a part of the 
crop In Surecropper is good insurance 
against dry-weather failures. Popular for 
May and June planting. 
Dwarf Mexican June. Large white ears. 
Best for late planting as it 1s drought- 
resistant. 
White Tuxpan. 
Vigorous; drought-resistant. 
mended especially for hill soils. 
Originated in Texas. 
Recom- 
We in America have practically the 
world to feed, besides ourselves. Dur- | 
ing and immediately after this war, we 
will have food shortages, high prices 
and rationing. Home-grown food, 
poultry and livestock are not Tete: 
Surplus vegetables, feeds and meats 
bring higher and higher prices, just as 
they cost more if we must buy them. 
Let’s grow them, for America, for our 
allies, for our own preservation. 
Corn is the feed crop for our hogs, 
cattle and poultry. We need much 
more of all of them. Too long have we ] 
paid for freight instead of just for Corn 
and meat. Now America needs the 
transportation for war materials. We 
must live at home, grow our Corn, and 
raise our meat. Try some Yellow Corn | 
this year! 

Plant Our Southern Yellow Dent Corn—Sure-Cropping, Weevil- and 
Drought-Resisting 

Yellow Corn is recognized as superior 
feed. It has been rapidly bred into greater 
production, and _weevil- and drought- 
resistance. With Vitamin A, not found in 
white Corn, our stock will do better on it, 
and rich yellow roasting ears will add a 
lot to our own meals. Farmers who know, 
buy yellow Corn. Farmers who_know 
more, grow yellow Corn. Yellow Corn Is 
the South’s big new crop. 
Southwestern Yellow Dent. Another 
drought - resistant, large-eared, large - 
grained, yellow Corn from dry Texas and 
Oklahoma. It has been popular with our 
trade for many years and we predict will 
remain so. Until White Sure Cropper was 
bred yellow, 1t has been appropriately 
called a Yellow Surecropper Corn. Ask 
anyone who plants this variety about It 
and then pay us a visit for seed. 
Hills Yellow Dent. Outstanding as one- 
and two-eared variety of deep rich golden 
yellow Corn. Check experiment station 
results and you will find It producing 
around the top record every year. Bred in 
Louisiana. It covers securely with a heavy 
shuck and is practically free from weevil 
damage. Everyone knows that yellow 
Corn has more food-value, so why not 
plant a tested variety and produce better 
yellow Corn than you buy from the West 
and North. 
Yellow Surecropper. The Texas Exper- 
iment Station recognizing the drought- 
resistance and high productivity of White 
Surecropper, yet Its poor feed-value, bred 
It Into a firm yellow Corn. Planted both 
early and late, it shows outstanding merit 
from Louisiana to the dry Panhandle of 
Texas and Oklahoma. Hill farmers will 
find this to be the yellow Corn they have 
waited and wished for. 
Jarvis Golden Prolific. A yellow prolific 
Corn, well adapted to this section and 
growing rapidly in popularity. Originat- 
Ing in Tennessee, it is earlier than native 
varieties, yet Its origin in the South, 
makes it cover well with a full shuck, pro- 
tecting it from bird and weevil damage. 
Its earliness allows it to make before the 
dry period comes. 
Planted for early feed and roasting ears, 
there will always be a place for some 
extra-early Corn. Northern varieties were 
bred for short seasons and do not make the 
heavier yields of our Southern Corns. 
They come in handy to feed when our 
bins run low in late summer but our 
main crops are planted with prolific 
Southern varieties. 
White Silvermine. Most popular large 
White Dent and used extensively by mar- 
ket gardeners. Ears are large, fill out well, 
and make beautiful roasting ears. 
White Pearl. Similar to Silvermine but a 
softer Corn when matured. Also grown 
extensively for feed and roasting ears. 
White St. Charles Red Cob. Most pop- 
ular northern Corn for feed, being very 
solid and a good producer. 
Reids Yellow Dent. Most popular 
northern yellow and possibly more exten- 
sively planted than any variety in the 
United States. We usually secure our 
stock from Missouri, hence it is semi- 
southern. 
St. Charles Yellow. A strain of Yellow 
Dent, very popular and recognized as the 
best northern yellow for Louisiana. 
Tennessee Red Cob. Another semi- 
southern Corn that produces well and is 
very popular when an earlier White Dent 
Corn ts desired.
