I can now distribute it to any part of 

 the Globe. Figuring increased expense 

 to get perfect seed, principally on ac- 

 count of drought, I am forced to make 

 a uniform price of $1.00 per packet of 

 over 500 seeds, 3 packets $2.50. This is 

 new crop seed, absolutely pure and true, 

 grown upon our premises under my per- 

 sonal supervision, and is backed by my 

 reputation and guarantee. 



STRONGER AND BETTER PLANTS 

 can be had from seed and you are sure 

 of a stock at one-fourth cost of cuttings.

In a letter I received from Dr. Web- 

 ber, of Cornell, within a year, he closed 

 by saying, "You must remember that 

 there is a great deal we do not yet 

 know about corn," and Dr. Webber is 

 good authority. 



The more we study it, the more this 

 truth is impressed upon us, and we must 

 admit it to be a plant of many and great 

 peculiarities. But we shall wisely ad- 

 here to the knowledge gained by previ- 

 ous experience and investigation, and 

 gladly welcome the new truths resulting 

 from the work of such deep thinkers 

 and keen •bservers as Webber, East, 

 ShuU, Hartley and others. Meanwhile 

 we shall always keep in mind, in our 

 practical work, the fact that what has 

 been attained by selection must be pre- 

 served by selection.
