SURE CROP 
A splendid Corn of Pennsylvania origin and a leading va- 
riety in Lancaster County, the most productive agricultural 
county in the State. 
Sure Crop is developed from two well-known old varieties. 
It has long, rather large ears and small cob, is an extremely 
heavy yielder, medium as to time of ripening, with stalks 10 
to 18 feet high. Rich protein content makes it most desirable 
for ensilage. Practically sure to ripen on good Cornland any- 
where in the East in the latitude of Pennsylvania where the 
parent seed-stock was grown.

CORNELL II 
Cornell 11 was developed by ear-to-row 
selection from Pride of the North and differs 
from it mainly in being about two weeks earlier 
in maturity while in stalk it is about 1 foot 
shorter. The ears are characteristically cylin- 
drical 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 Leam- 
ing. 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. Cornell 11 is recom- 
mended as one of the most desirable varieties 
for the hill sections where the seasons are short.
