Acme Fodder- A Natural Cross
Almost perfect as a silage corn. This is a mixture of off type early dents and semi-dents with a previous year's cross. This sort of combination means heavy growth and yield combined with the natural earliness of its components. Easily handled with a binder. Lb., 30c; postpaid. F.O.B. Here; 10lbs., $1.25; ½ bu., $2.25; bu., $4.00
Alta Dent
90 days. As early as the early strains of Minnesota 13, bred in western South Dakota and consequently especially adapted to drier conditions and higher altitude. A handsome and valuable pure yellow dent. Matures in 90 to 95 days. Lb., 35c, postpaid. F.O.B. Here; 10lbs., $1.30; ½ bu., $2.75; bu., $5.00
Assiniboine Flint
60 days. From the Canadian Indians, earliest type of corn grown. Ripens 10 days before the Gehu and Dakota, so has an especially useful place in hogging off. Lb., 40c, postpaid. F.O.B. Here; 10lbs., $1.50; ½ bu., $3.50; bu., $6.50
Burleigh Co. Mixed or Dakota Squaw
70 days. Hardy, early, heavy yielding. This is a mixed form of the early flint and is the first variety listed by us after our business was started. It is very resistant to both drought and frost, and fully as heavy a yielder as any variety of early flint. It is of mixed colors, yellow, white, blue and red predominating, ears long and slender, mostly eight-rowed. This corn shells out heavier than any other variety. Lb., 35c, postpaid; F.O.B. Here; 10lbs., $1.35; ½ bu., $3.25; bu., $6.00
Commando Sweet
A cross from our seed plots. Golden Gem crossed with the very early but taller growing Russian Yellow Flint. Good size combined with extreme earliness, good habit and good quality. Pkt., 10c; ¼ lb., 16c; lb., 45c
Dakota White Flint
70 days. The first variety produced by Oscar H. Will in the early eighties. A pure, pearly white flint, 8 to 12 rowed, long slender ears with small cob and a great deal of grain. Many ears to a hill, and yields of 50 bu. Per acre have been reported. Stalks are leafy and bushy, a wonderful variety to feed off in the field. Height from 3 ½ to 5 ½ ft. Lb., 35c, postpaid; F.O.B. Here; 10lbs., $1.30; ½ bu., $3.00; bu., $5.25

Hybrid A (The Falconer Hybrid)
Bred and produced through our own breeding plots. A distinct improvement over standard Falconer. 1lb., 50c; F.O.B. Here, 7lbs., $1.40; bu., $10.50
Hybrid D. (Falconer Alta)
One of our best yielding hybrids. Falconer blood gives hardiness and high yield. Atla blood gives dent habit. 1lb., 50c; F.O.B. Here, 7 lbs., $1.40; bu., $10.50
Mercer Flint
90 days. A fine silage variety with stalks 6 to 8 ft. high, leafy, with slender stalks, ears long and slim, several to a hill, color orange-yellow. A second early sort that does not always mature in short seasons. Fine to feed in the bundle as well as for silage. We have an extra good acclimated strain. Lb., 35c, postpaid; F.O.B. Here; 10lbs., $1.30; ½ bu., $2.75; bu., $5.15
Pioneer White Dent
85 days. The earliest and hardiest white dent in cultivation. Also the most drouth resistant dent that can be grown. Easy to pick, even in maturing. Ears average 6 to 8 inches long, nearly cylindrical, 14 to 16 rows, white with occasional pink shading. Stalks 5 to 7 ft., ears 2 ft. up. Lb., 35c, postpaid. F.O.B. Here, 10lbs., $1.30; ½ bu., $2.75; bu., $5.00
Rainbow Flint
Drouth resistant- a tremendous yielder. We have two strains. The Great Plains Strain was developed at the U.S. Great Plains Station at Mandan, is earlier and better adapted to Great Plains Conditions. The South Dakota Strain is somewhat taller and later. Lb., 35c, postpaid. F.O.B. Here; 10lbs., $1.30; ½ bu., $2.75; bu., $5.00
Red Star- The New Semi-Dent
We believe that we have an outstanding new variety here. A cross of Falconer, Atla Yellow Dent and Siberian Flint. The latter is very early but does not go down after ripening and carries its ears high on the stalk. This is an 80 day corn. A very heavy yielder and ear and stalk resemble the Siberian parent. Lb., postpaid, 40c. F.O.B. Here, 10lbs., $1.35; ½ bu., $3.50; bu., $6.50
Russian Extra Early
Corns from Siberia and the colder parts of Russia, very remarkable for earliness and height of stalks for such early corn. lb., postpaid, 50c; F.O.B. Bismark, 5lbs., $1.00
Rustler White Dent
90 day Crimmins Strain. This especially adapted strain of the rather late Rustler for central and western North Dakota has been bred by Mr. D.C. Crimmins. He is a corn breeder of note, winner of many premiums at the State Corn Show, and in this strain of Rustler has given us a very valuable corn. Lb., 35c, postpaid. F.O.B. Here, 10lbs., $1.35; ½ bu., $3.00; bu., $5.10
Square Deal Yellow Dent
An Oscar H. Will introduction some thirty-five years ago, Square Deal is still the earliest of all yellow dents.

Will's Gehu Yellow Flint
75 days. The best known of our native early flints. We have shipped it to every continent. It has been carefully bred by us for years and shows the effect of its breeding. Its feeding qualities are the highest of any variety of corn, it is leafy and produces a tremendous amount of excellent fodder, since there is no heavy stalk, and every part of the plant is utilized. It is drought, frost, and hail resistant to a wonderful extent in addition to its great earliness. In good soil and under favorable conditions it may be cut with a corn binder. Gehu is of a lemon-yellow color, ears mostly twelve-rowed, 7 to 10 inches in length. Stalks 4 to 6 ft. Ears 10 to 18 inches from the ground. Lb., 35c, postpaid; F.O. B. here; 10lbs., $1.30; ½ bu., $2.75; bu., $5.15.
Will's Original Northwestern Dent
The original Northwestern Dent corn, a history of which is given in Bulletin No. 107 of the Montana Experiment Station, was introduced by Oscar H. Will in 1896, and almost immediately attained great popularity over the whole Northwest. It is extremely hardy and will produce a crop when all other dents fail, owing to its frost and drought resistance. It ripens in 80 to 85 days. Lb. Postpaid, 35c; F.O.B. Here, 10lbs., $1.30; ½ bu., $3.00; bu., $5.00
