 King of the Earlies.— The earliest Deut Corn grown. 



This Corn originated with the originator of the Pride of the North, Corn and 

 is the earliest of all Dent Corn. The originator describes it as follows : 



"This is without doubt the earliest and finest Dent Corn in cultivation 

 — bright orange color. Short, leafy stocks, medium-sized ears, small red cobs; 

 long, deep grains, very rich In oil and starch— the most prolific Corn extant. 

 This Corn is evidently adapted for planting in high latitudes, and will mature 

 a crop farther north than any other known variety, and for threshing there is 

 no other Corn that will compare with it, will shell easier, will make better 

 fodder, can be threshed earlier than any other known variety. It ripens 

 earlier, dries out quicker, makes better fodder, stands the drought better 



and will ivield more No. 1 

 shelled Corn than any 

 other known variety."

RED COB FODDER CORN. 



This variety is now grown in the large dairy regions of Wisconsin so 

 immensely as almost to exclude all of the other so-called Fodder Corns, 

 and the verdict is that it is the best. It is sweet, tender and jnicy ; has short 

 joints, abundance of leaves, and grows to a great height, /urnisAirag more 

 than double the bulk and much more nourishment than any brdinary field Corn. 

 The question has frequently been put at large gatherings of men inter- 

 ested in the growing of forage crops : " What Corn is the best, for Fodder and 

 Ensilage Purposes?" and the universal opinion has always been rendered 

 in favor of the Red Cob. Every lot is tested and recleaned, hence you buy 

 no cobs or dirt. Peck 50 cts. ; bushel 1.25
