DIBBLE’S Cornell 11 
Cornell 11 is a variety developed by 
ear-to-row selection from Pride of the 
North and differs from Pride of the North 
mainly in that it is about two weeks earlier 
in maturity while in stalk it is about 1 foot 
shorter. The ears are characteristically 
cylindrical in shape, 6 to 8 inches long, 
usually not well filled at tips and of 14 to 
18 rows, with cob rather large. The kernels 
are medium broad and thick and rather 
shallow as compared with Corns of the 
Corn-belt such as Leaming or Early Yellow 
Dent. The color is yellow but some reddish 
ears appear. The selection was designed 
not for producing a “show” Corn but for 
high yield of grain and early maturity. 
During the past few seasons this variety 
has proved very popular with many of our 
customers. Cornell 11 is recommended by 
the New York State Department of Plant- 
breeding as one of the most desirable varie- 
ties for the hill sections where the seasons 
are short,

Was introduced by us thirty-six years ago as the earliest large Yellow 
Dent in existence. During that time we have tried out, tested, and in- 
spected ftelds of other Early Dents and, as a result, we still say to our 
customers that Dibble’s Early Yellow Dent is the most desirable of the 
Early Dents for the eastern farmer. 
We do not advise its growth at high altitudes, such as the hill lands 
of New York, for a husking crop, but we do recommend it as the best 
early Yellow Dent for ensilage now grown. 
Dibble’s Early Yellow Dent planted here in the Genesee Valley 
country, May 15, to June 1, is usually ready for the silo by early Sep- 
tember, but many of our customers report that it matures earlier with 
them. The foliage is very leafy and the stalks average 10 to 12 feet in 
height. One field of 12 acres on one of our own farms measured 14 feet 
on the level for the entire field. The ears, 8 to 10 inches in Iength, are 
closely set with bright yellow grains on a small cob. Hundreds of our 
customers, In a dozen different states, plant Dibble’s Early Yellow Dent 
year after year.

Dibble’s Lancaster County 
Sure Crop 
DIBBLE’S Lancaster County Sure Crop 
A splendid Corn of Pennsylvania origin, and the leading variety 
grown in Lancaster County, the best and most productive agricultural 
county in the state. 
Sure Crop is a hybrid developed from two well-known old varieties. 
It has Jong, rather large ears and small cob, is an extremely heavy yielder, 
medium as to time of ripening, and grows a wonderful mass of foliage, 
with stalks 10 to 18 feet high. Being extremely rich in protem makes it 
most desirable for ensilage. It is practically sure to ripen on good Corn- 
Jand anywhere in the East in the latitude of Pennsylvania where the 
parent seed-stock was grown. Our 1945 crop averaged over 40 bushels 
per acre of recleaned, screened, and graded Corn, germinating nearly 
100 per cent. Can you beat it?

seeds for 25 years and tells 
me there are none as good.
