CORN 



The Corn we offer is shelled from selected ears, carefully tipped and graded. We recommend our Wisconsin grown Corn 

 first of all as the best for planting in Wisconsin, but where silage is wanted we have always found Nebraska grown Seed 

 Corn to give entire satisfaction. Our stocks are as represented and are in every way suitable for seeding purposes.

SILVER KING— (Wis. no. t). 



This Corn •^•as originally obtained by the Wisconsin Experiment Station from Northern 

 Iowa, and bj' a careful selection of the best and earliest ears we now have a White Dent 

 Corn with large ears, small cob and deep kernels, that is suited to our Wisconsin conditions. 



The ears of this Corn average 8 to 9 inches in length, and are always filled out to 

 the tips. As a yielder it has no superior. A few years ago the Wisconsin Experiment 

 Station reported a yield of 75 bushels per acre, and since then yields of over 90 bushels have 

 been reported. These are remarkable yields when taking into consideration that the aver- 

 age crop of Corn in Wisconsin is only about 35 bushels per acre. Wisconsin Grown, 1 lb. 

 15c (by mail 22c); peck 90c; bushel $3.50. Nebraslca Grown, 1 lb. 10c (by mail 17c); 

 peck 65c; bushel $2.35. 



EARLY YELLOW DENT— (wis. no. s). 



This Corn is known in Wisconsin as "Wisconsin No. 8" and in Minnesota as "Minnesota 

 No. 13." It is noted for its early maturity, and can be depended on to ripen anywliere 

 in Wisconsin, or in the same latitude in other states. It has shown its great value as an 

 ideal Northern Wisconsin variety. It makes a fairly large stalk growth, well clothed 

 with leaves. The ears average 7 to 8 inches long. \Visconsin GrowTi, 1 lb. 15c (by mail 22c); 

 peck $1.00; bushel $3.75. Nebraska Growii, 1 lb. 10c (by mail 17c); peck 65c; bushel $2.40. 



GOLDEN GLOW— (Wis. no. 12). 



This variety, a cross between Wisconsin No. 8 and another deeper kerneled, heavier 

 yielding variety, was introduced by Prof. R. A. Moore of the Wisconsin Experiment Station 

 a few years ago, and is especially adapted to the latitude of Central and Southern Wiscon- 

 sin, being somewhat earlier than Wisconsin No. 7. In many extreme northern counties it 

 has matured wonderful yields, and it is therefore one of the best yellow Dent varieties for 

 general use. It is a golden-yellow Dent; ears average 7 to S inches in length, symmetrical 

 and well-filled with closely-set deep kernels. AVisconsin Growno, 1 lb. 15c (by mail 22c); 

 peck 90c; bushel $3.50. Nebraska Grown, 1 lb. 10c (by mail 17c); peck 65c; bushel $2.35. 



MURDOCK YELLOW DENT. 



A pure yellow, heavy yielding Yellow Dent variety maturing in 85 or 90 days. The ears 

 average well over S inches in length, are very uniform in size and shape, and are really 

 very handsome in appearance. It is the earliest yellow Dent next to the Golden Glow 

 and Wisconsin No. 8. yields almost, if not quite as heavily as Silver King, and is a few 

 days earlier in maturing. It produces a strong, vigorous, heavily-leaved stalk, which 

 makes it valuable for silage purposes. >Visconsin Grown, 1 lb. 15c (by mail 22c); peck 90c; 

 bushel $3.50. Nebraska Grown, 1 lb. 10c (by mail 17c); peck 65c; bushel $2.35. 



CURRIE'S EARLIEST OF ALL. 



The Earliest Dent Corn In Existence. Matures in al>out «>0 days from time of planting. 

 Yields f«"o to tbree ears to tlie stalk. Furnishes Fodder in the liot, dry suimner montlis. 



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

 July. The stalks grow about 6 feet in height, well clothed with leaves with rich feeding 

 qualities. It will not take the place of the large-eared, heavy yielding sorts, but where 

 extreme earliness is desired there is no other variety equal to it. A highly profitable 

 variety to grow in sections where even the earliest of the heavier yielding Dent sorts can- 

 not be depended upon to mature a crop. 1 lb. 15c (by mail 22c); peck $1.10; bushel $4.00. 



KING OF THE EARLIES DENT. 



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. 

 The ears are medium in length, cob very small, closely set with long, deep kernels. This 

 Corn is eminently adapted for planting in the northern limits of the Corn Belt, and will 

 mature a crop in 85 to 95 days. 1 lb. 10c (by mail 17c); peck 65c; bushel $2.25. 



WHITE CAP YELLOW DENT. 



The Best Com for the Northwestern Stoclonan. Unexcelled for Silage. It combines 

 more solid merit than any Corn grown, being suitable for all kinds of soils, but especially 

 suited for poor, thin soil, where it has out-yielded the well-known Learning by at least 

 30 per cent. It matures within a few days of Golden Glow and produces much larger ears 

 and a greater bulk of fodder. The grain is deep, flat and closely set together on handsome 

 ears, white at the tip end, balance yellow. Ripens in 90 to 95 days. Fodder strong and 

 stocky, well furnished with leaf stalks; height from 7 to 8 feet. 1 lb. 10c (by mail 17c);
