SOME FORMS OF CORN 



In the direct-color photograph print 

 shown here the central ear is one form 

 of the "pod" corn, in which each kernel 

 is incased in a separate sheath. The ear 

 at the left is another form of teosinte 

 with larger kernels than those in the 

 preceding print; from this latter the 

 process by which the kernels crowded 

 each other until the cob increased in size 

 may be readily imagined. The ear 

 shown at the right is an improved pop- 

 ping corn.
