 very deep grained. It produces well, even on light land. Peck, 30c.;

Leaniing' Improved Dent. — A very popular and extremely 

 productive variety. On good land the stalks grow tall, producing two 

 good ears to each stalk. The ears are long, with small red cob well filled 

 with grains of medium size but deep, of a rich golden color. It ripens 

 with us in from 100 to 110 days, and makes a good crop, even in dry 

 seasons, by reason of its earliness in maturing and strong, vigorous 

 growth. The stalks are rather slender and leafy, making excellent 

 fodder, while the grains, being so deep or long, yield an extra large 

 quantity of shelled corn per bushel of ears. Peck, 80c.; bush., $1.00.
