Open Pollinated Varieties 
Golden Mortgage Lifter 
King of All Open-Pollinated Corn 
ARCHIAS’ GOLDEN MORTGAGE LIFTER has been our leading open- 
pollinated variety for 60 years. Being early, as well as prolific, Mortgage 
Lifter is planted as an early Corn for early feeding and for planting late to 
follow small grain. It has a very stiff stalk, stands up well, and it will out- 
yield any other early Corn. It has a very small cob with a good, large grain, 
rich in oil, making it a Corn that will feed out and fatten faster than any 
other Corn grown. Maturity 100 days. 
See price list that came with your catalog for prices. 
Reid’s Yellow Dent 
This is Missouri’s best known variety of open-pollinated Corn. Average 
maturity 110 days. Ears 9 to 13 inches long, well filled from tip to butt. 
Deep close set grains. Heavy producer on good ground, 
See price list that came with your catalog for prices. 
LEAMING, Improved Yellow Dent. (110 days.) Fine silage corn. 
long ears. Large grain, excellent soft feeding quality. 
90-Day Yellow 
A quick growing yellow variety, highly desirable and popular with feed- 
ers who want an early feeding Corn. Matures in about 90 days. Archias’ 
90-Day Yellow ears are about 10 inches long, sometimes two to the stalk; 
deep, moderately rough kernels high in protein and oil content make it an 
excellent feeding Corn. 
HICKORY KING 
The white grain is so wide and deep, and the cob so small that often 
a single grain will cover the end of a broken cob. It has been called the 
Poor Man's Corn because it can be depended upon to produce a crop on 
poor, thin land. On good land it bears 2 ears to the stalk. By mail, 
postpaid, 1 Ib., 50c; 3 Ibs., $1.25; 5 Ibs., $1.75; 10 Ibs., $2.95.

pollinated variety. Fine for ensilage.
