COKER 8Il EXCELLENT 
FOR GRITS 
Coker’s Pedigreed Seed Company

Gentlemen: 
When using real good corn, such as Coker’s 811, we 
make about 20,000 pounds grits per day. This type corn 
will turn out about a 50 per cent production; that is, for 
each bushel of corn, we get about a half bushel grits. 
Some of the other corns that are not particularly adapted 
for the manufacture of grits, turn out around 40 per cent 
or in some cases, even as low as 30 per cent. Coker’s 811 
is especially adapted for the manufacture of grits and is 
the best corn we have used for this purpose until the pres- 
ent time. We find it easy to manufacture; we get the great- 
est percentage production from it; and above all, it pro- 
duces the finest quality grits that we have made. We have 
not been able to secure this corn in large quantities, but 
have used enough of it to recognize its fine quality. 
You will understand that when the price of yellow 
~ corn and white corn is about the same, and the by-product 
is readily usable, then your percentage of production is 
not too important; however, when white corn is higher 
than yellow, which it has been for the last year or two, 
then the matter of production is very important. 
Knowing you to be interested in the merits of Coker’s 
811, we are indeed glad to pass this information along to 
you. 
Very truly yours,
