OPEN-POLLINATED CORN 
MINNESOTA NO. 13, COLORADO 
YELLOW DENT are three similar 
varieties of high yielding, yel- 
low: dent corn—well adapted to 
regions of the state at elevations 
of 4,800 to 6,000 feet. They 
mature in 90 to 100 days. 
COLORADO 13 was selected and adapted to 
Colorado conditions: from Minnesota 13 for allti- 
tudes from 4,000 to 6,000 feet. This is the leading 
variety of yellow dent, open-pollinated corn. 
The blue tag assures purchasers of high-quality; 
thai the seed in the bag is true to type. 
CRAWFORD’S YELLOW DENT originated in Delta 
County and has been found well adapted in 
Morgan County and similar regions. It is a deep, 
rough kerneled, small cob corn. 
REID’S YELLOW DENT is a selected strain of 
the well known Reid’s Corn. This variety is 
standard for southeastern Colorado, the Arkan- 
sas and Grand Valleys. 100 to 110 days. 
IOWA SILVER MINE is a white dent corn maturing 
in 100 to 110 days. Is often referred to as ‘The 
National Corn.” The cob is small and white. 
The kernels are deep, white, and rather smooth, 
dented but not hackle crowned. It has a deep 
root system which enables it to withstand drought 
and adverse conditions exceedingly well. 
RED COB ENSILAGE is a pure white dent corn 
with a red cob. It matures in 110 to 115 days. 
Ears are large and the stalks grow 10 to 14 feet 
high with many broad, succulent leaves pro- 
ducing an immense tonnage of excellent quality 
silage. Red Cob Ensilage is well adapted for 
silage purposes. 
CALICO is a medium early, mixed dent corn 
maturing in 100 days. Kernels are variegated, 
being speckled or mottled red, white and yellow. 
The stalks are leafy; the ears are carried high. 
Calico corn has a high protein content making it 
a very efficient feed. 
OPEN-POLLINATED CORN 
WHITE AUSTRALIAN is a hard flint corn well 
adapted for cool climates, short seasons and 
dry lands. Ears are of medium size; kernels are 
white, smooth, shallow, rounded and flinty. 85 
to 90 days. 
GEHU FLINT is a yellow dwari, flint corn growing 
4 to 6 feet high. It matures in 80 to 90 days. 
It is not a husking corn as the ears set close 
to the ground, but this makes it very desirable 
for early hogging down. It is the earliest yellow 
corn and its particular use is for short seasons 
and dry land planting. 
SQUAW CORN is a mixture of various sorts once 
grown by North Dakota Indians. It is often called 
Blue Squaw. It is early, maturing in 90 days. 
The ears are small; kernels are shallow, rounded, 
smooth and flinty; yields well. It is selected for 
sections where the growing season is short where 
grain is required. 
SOYBEANS 
SOYBEANS are annual legumes widely adapted to 
various soils and not difficut to grow, are excel- 
lent as a summer catch crop and splendid soil 
builders. Soybean hay is one of the best rough- 
ages, and when mixed with corn they make 
splendid ensilage. When harvested for seed, 
they should not be cut until pods are fully ma- 
tured and the beans hard. They may be har- 
vested by binder or combine. Sow 25 to 100 
pounds per acre depending on the size of seed, 
method of seeding, use of crop, and soil condi- 
tions. Soil should be kept mellow by frequent 
cultivation. Manchu and Illini are well recom- 
mended varieties. 
BANSEI EDIBLE SOYBEANS. A very early type, 
well adapted for short season areas. Ready for 
picking as green shelled beans in 100 to 96 
days. A fine home garden variety. Plants erect
