"ANYONE MAY BUY FROM FARM BUREAU"
Wentink Elected Lancaster Farming, Saturday, October 3, 1964—3
Hendrik Wentink, sales man
ager for the Rohi erstown
based Miller & Bushong, Inc,
has been named to the Exe
cutive Committee of the 300-
man Sales Executives Council
sponsored by the Ameucan
Feed Manufacturers Associa
tion.
The Council engages itself
in many aieas of woik that is
of benefit to the feed manu
factunng industry Most dis-
When you buy seed corn by the bushel you
get, by actual count, anywhere from 62,440 to
102,420 kernels. This spread in kernel count rep
resents as much as 2 acres of planted seed bed per
bushel. You can’t buy economically with this kind
of guess-work.
For peak yield and profits, you should plant
12,000 to 20,000 kernels per acre depending on
your type of soil. With Farm Bureau’s Kernel
Count Packaging, you know exactly how much
seed to buy for the acreage you plan to plant.
Now you don’t overbuy . . . you don’t run
short. Farm Bureau’s Kernel Count Packaging
takes the “guess and hope for the best” out of
seed corn buying.
From the chart notice that an 80,000 kernel
bag plants just about the same acres as a bushel,
but the figures for the 80,000 kernel bags are
EXACT while the others are approximate.
