WHERE IS YOUR 1913 SEED CORN TONIGHT? Out In the crib, or hung In the barn or shed, untested and underglng sudden and severe chang es of temperature, or, worse, still, exposed to moisture? Even the ordi nary variable atmosphere injures seed corn which must be kept abso lutely dry to prevent the swelling and contraction of the germ, thereby Injuring the embrialic plant. This is only one thought as to your seed upon which, to a great extent, depends your success in 1913. Let us help you to a better way; permit us to point out some facts, which, when understood, will send you to us for seed which is bred right, picked, selected, dried, and then stored cor rectly corn which averaged in 1,600 tests, 15 more bushels per acre than "home grown seed. The matter is interesting and instructive as told in our 1913 illustrated book, just out. It is free to all those who write promptly. Address Funk Bros. Seed Co., 1500 w. Washington St., Bloom ington, Illinois. SOME COMING FEATURES Next week's issue will be our big Poultry Special. The week after that we expect to have a Farm Experience' ' number, made up largely of little letters of farm experience from our readers. We publish some such letters every week, but we can't possibly publish all the good ones we get. We have a fine lot to select from, and we believe they will be found both interesting and helpful. Then, March 1, will come the Corn Special for which you should send in your letters at once. SPEAKING OF THE CURVES OF BEAUTY, HOW'S THIS? mum m. n mm - K-w VJMV'n.
