Onestop shopping fora!l 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 tight the first time and everytime by asking about Pride seed corn and the King Brand range of seeds. King Grain Limited P.O.
