LILLY The Chas. H. Lilly Co. are tluTThly seedsmen in the United States growing- seed corn north of the 47th meridian. It is now an acknowledged fact that corn—good old-fashioned suculent corn with juicy stalks and plump, well matured ears—will grow on the Pa- cific Coast. In fact the further north corn is grown the better the grade. It is hardy and matures in a short time besides permitting planting close to- gether, which means a bigger harvest per acre. In fact, there is no doubt that corn will be to the farmer of the Pacific Coast as valuable a crop as it is to the farmer of Illinois. If cut green and packed in silos is makes a very fine winter green feed, particularly adapted for milch cows. However, it is essential that the right seed be used and ni this respect you do not have to experiment with a lot of eastern and southern grown varieties—we have done this for you. Our original stocks were the result of years of selection in the corn-growing section of the East. We have taken this stock, acclimated it to the Pacific Coast, selected four va- rieties that suit our conditions and have grown them on the Pacific Coast. We supply you with pedigreed corn that will grow anywhere on the Pacific Coast and yield abundant harvest. Our North of 47 varieties of Field Corn are grown north of the 47th meridian and are positively worth five times as much as Eastern grown corn. Read what some of the leading agriculturists and greatest au- thorities say of Corn grown north of 47 degrees: "I consider such seed corn worth more than double any imported corn for planters in the Inland Empire. As a fodder crop in the Pacific Northwest the corn plant will produce a larger measure of feed per acre of land and labor involved than any other plant kno
