KING OF THE EARLIES. 



KING OF THE EARLIES 

 DENT CORN. 



One of the Earliest True Dent Corns in Culti- 

 vation. Yields an Immense crop of No. 1 

 shelled Corn.. Ears medium in size. Cohs 

 small. 



The importance of planting only the ear- 

 liest varieties of Corn has been demonstrated 

 to the farmers of the Northwest during the 

 past few years. In King of the Earlies we 

 have 'without doubt one of the earliest and 

 best Dent Corns in existence. Color bright 

 golden yellow. The stalks grow from 6 to 8 

 feet in height, and are thickly covered with 

 leaves close to the ground, yielding a large 

 amount of excellent fodder, unsurpassed in 

 feeding qualities. 



The ears are medium in length, cob very 

 small, closely set with long deep kernels very 

 rich in oil and starch. 



This Corn is eminently adapted for planting 

 in high latitudes, and will mature a crop in 

 80 to 90 days. It can be husked earlier, will 

 shell easier and makes better fodder than any 

 other known sort. It ripens earlier, dries out 

 quicker, stands drought better and will yield 

 more No. 1 Shelled Corn than any other early 

 variety. 



King of the Earlies can be depended upon 

 to mature a very heavy crop of first-class 

 Corn in Wisconsin and Minnesota. Our stock 

 of it is carefully selected every year from the 

 earliest and best ears, making it as nearly 

 perfect as possible, and is unsurpassed in uni- 

 formity of type. 



Quart 15c (by mail 30c per quart); peck 50c; bushel $1.50; 2% bushels $3.50. 



CURRIE'S EARLIEST OF ALL CORN. 



The Earliest Corn in Existence. Matures in about 60 days from time of planting. 



Yields two to three ears to the stalk. Furnishes Fodder in the 



hot, dry summer months. 



Planted at the same time as other Corn, Currie's Earliest of All will be ready 

 for use in July, coming in at a time when fodder is generally short, and filling in a 

 gap until the main crop of corn can be used. The stalks grow about 6 feet in height, 

 well clothed with leaves with rich feeding qualities. We do not advise growing this 

 Corn for main crop in this section. It will not take the place of King of the Earlies 

 for that purpose, the yield of Corn being much 

 less, but where extreme earliness is desired there 

 is no other variety equal to it. 



Quart 20c (by mail 35c per quart) ; peck 

 $1.00; bushel $3.00. 

 PRIDE OF THE NORTH — No variety of 

 Corn has been more extensively grown in the 

 Northwestern States than this. It is early, 

 with a fairly large ear and small cob, closely 

 set with deep kernels; color bright yellow. 



Quart, 15c (by mail 30c per quart); peck 

 50c; bushel $1.50; 2% bushels $3.50. 



EARLIEST OP ALL CORN. 



Brazilian Flour Corn — In this section grown mainly for fodder. It is a wonderful 

 producer, stalks growing about 8 feet in height, stooling out so much that one kernel 

 frequently produces as many as eight stalks, each stalk yielding two to three ears 

 of beautiful white Corn. The Corn contains a greater percentage of starch than any 

 other, and if ground and bolted the same as wheat, makes a fine flour, much esteemed 

 by many for making bread and pastry. 



It is a splendid variety for ensilage, producing about four times as much fodder 

 as the ordinary Corn. Plant two kernels in each hill, and cultivate the same as any 

 other corn. 



Quart 20c (by mail 35c per quart); peck 85c; bushel $3.00.
