or all your
seed needs
One stop shopping makes sense.
It saves time and money, too.
When you see your Pride dealer
about your seed corn supplies
ask him about
all your other seed requirements.
The most important decision you make
every year is your choice of
seed — spending money
on fertilizer and chemicals
and making a poor choice of seed
is a sure way to failure.
Your local Pride dealer means
more than just corn.
He's a seedsman and can tell you
everything about Thor alfalfa
and Perth barley and Harcor soybeans
and PF 70 forage sorghum.
Be right the first time and everytime
by asking about Pride seed corn
and the King Brand range of seeds.
