Bars o/ Corn-Teosinte Hybrid 



These ears, as will be seen, have departed very radlcallu 



from the snake-rattle type of the original Teosinte. On the 



other hand they quite as obviously lack a good deal of conforming to 



the accepted standards of the developed corn. They have 



peculiar Interest as representing another stage of the 



evolution through which the plant doubtless passed 



in the course of its development, under 



guidance of the aborigines of 



southweatefn America.
