In Spite Of Drouth 
“Dear Mr. Field: I am enclosing a 
_ snapshot of my husband taken with some 
of our United Corn we raised. It was 
planted May 5 and picked Sept. 5. It 
_ made 70 bu. to the acre in spite of the 
_ drouth. We had no rain after July 4th. 
He thinks it is wonderful corn and is 
going to plant more next year’’—Mrs. 
_ Everett L. Ware, Rt. 4, St. Joseph, 
Missouri.» — 
— Clematis Worth Everything 
_. The large-flowered Hybrid Clematis 
_ isn’t the easiest thing to start, but it is 
_ so beautiful, and does so well after 
_ getting started, that it surely is worth 
a little extra effort. 
_ . First off, it likes lime. If your soil 
ds sour, add a little to it. And be care- 
_ ful not to crack the stems. Be sure to 
_ Spread out the brown flesh roots care- 
fully. Work dirt well around them, and 
mound it up just before freezing.

Protect Your Trees 
Rabbits and mice eat the green bark 
of young trees in fall and winter when 
other food is scarce. So protect young 
trees by wrapping their trunks with 
window screen wire, hardware cloth, 
paper or burlap. Old magazines are 
good. Enclose the trunk from about an 
inch below the ground up to 18 to 20 in. 
In case of a deep snow, increase the 
height. Place cinders around the base 
of the tree and set the covering in these. 
If field mice are particularly bad, put 
our Rat Killer or Rodan Rat and Mice 
Killer in their runs. 
Best Corn of All 
“Dear Mr. Field: Received my seed corn 
OK. United Corn is the best I ever planted. 
All around me many other kinds of corn 
did not do well.”,—Joe Halda, Winnebago, 
Nebraska, 
Give Canned Goods for 
Christmas 
When you are canning this fall, can a 
few extras for Christmas presents. Or 
if you have a freeze box, put away a 
few extra boxes. Some fresh straw- 
berties, or a jar of pickled peaches, 
sure will taste good to your friends at 
that Christmas dinner. : 
You Can Can Better with These 
Mrs. Field says you can get a lot of 
good information on canning by writing 
to the Bureau of Home Economics, 
Dept. of Agriculture, Washington, D.C.

100% for UNITED 
by Henry Field 
This United Hybrid makes good common sense. 
Vm for it and Vll tell you why. Most of you 
know Vve been producing hybrids for over 30 
years, In that time I’ve learned a good bit about 
hybrids and developed some of the most valuable 
inbreds in the hybrid world. But one man can’t 
have ALL the BEST ones and I know that, But 
by combining the best ones you have with many 
other hybrid producers and using some of theirs 
that might be best in their line, you can get an 
ALMOST PERFECT HYBRID. 
And that’s just what United has done. And the 
corn is good—much better than anyone could 
have produced alone. I’m 100% for UNITED 
and am proud my inbreds played a part in the 
program, I know youw’re going to be 100% for 
UNITED too.
