No. IIG. ''Queen's Golden.''' J. & S. This was somewhat smaller than the 

 hist and the ear more tapering, with the grains of a darker yellow. 

 A very handsome corn and presumably eastern grown, which may 

 account for the smaller size of plant and earlier maturity. 



'• 117. "Queen's Golden." Vau. As to plant this was the same as the 

 last, but the ears are sharper pointed and the grains much larger, 

 with a pointed end, suggesting the "rice" form. Many grains 

 failed to mature and the ears were all with irregular rows. 



" lis. "Queen's. Golden." Y. & H. In plant this was nearly like the last 

 two, but the seed did not give a good stand. The eai's are long 

 and slender, with the grains smaller than any other of the 

 "Queen's Golden" group and in twisted rows upon the cob. 



*■ 119. "Amher Pearl." Hend. This gave a set of stout plants of medium 

 size and productiveness. The ears are long and slender, rows 

 straight and grains flat topped and rectangular and in color 

 approaching amber. 



•■ 120. '"Yelloio." U. S. D. A. India. This is a stout, medium small and 

 medium early corn, with the husks very stiff upon the short, 

 pointed ears. The straw-colored grains are large, of the pearl 

 type and somewhat in-egularly disposed on the cob. It is differ- 

 ent from any other in the list. 



" 121. "Eight-Rowed." A. D. Co. This is a small and early corn with 

 the ears very slender and usually eight-rowed. The one in the 

 pictui'e, however, is ten-rowed. The grains are large and rec- 

 tangular and of the plain "white" color. 



" 122. "White Pearl." Brk. This is a tall, late-maturing sort, averaging 

 nine feet high and with the ears still green upon the first of 

 October. The ears are cylindrical and fourteen to sixteen-rowed, 

 with the grains small and of good length. 



" 123. "White Pearl." A. D. Co. This is practically the same as the last, 

 but with us it was far less productive and the ears much smaller. 



'• 124. "White Pearl." U. S. D. A. This does not differ from the last 

 two and gave one of the most prolific rows of shapely ears. 



" 12.5. "Mapledale Prolific'' J. & S. This is medium early sort, with 

 slender stalks. The ears are rather stout, with a tinge of rose 

 in the small shining grains. 



■" 126. "Mapledale Prolific." Vau. This is quite like the last with the 

 slender stalks not able to remain upright after maturity. The 

 ears are stout and the rows many of small, hard, white grains. 



" 127. ''Silver Lace." Burp. This is nearly the same as the last in form 

 of plant, but the ears are smaller, more tapering, and the husks 

 are remarkably soft when mature. 



" 128. "Rice." U. S. D. A. Brazil. This sort was one of the largest of 

 the list, with very tall, leafy plants, just coming into silk upon 

 October 1st. The immature ear, gathered upon the tenth of that 

 month, is shown in Plate III. 



" 129. "Rice." A. D. Co. This is a medium-sized sort, red throughout, 

 that stood up well. The ears medium early, and are not large, 

 with the large, sharp-pointed, "white" grains, often irregularly 

 placed. 



" 130. "Rice." A. D. Co. (No. 2). This is somewhat larger and later than 

 the last, with the grains quite uniformly in rows.
