 1141. Bolgiano's Prosperity Corn. If you really want to 

 grow a bumper crop of beautiful Yellow Dent Corn this year, 

 just take our advice and plant Bolgiano's New "Prosperity" 

 Com. The fine, large, stately ears are 12 to 14 in. long, 8 to 

 11 in. in circumference and have from 20 to 24 uniform rows 

 of long, large kernels, well developed over tip and but. It is 

 a luxuriant grower from 12 to 15 ft. high, and if planted dur- 

 ing the first half of May will mature before the 20th of Sep- 

 tember. For more than a score of years, "Prosperity" Com 

 has been under the most watchful breeding and selection; the 

 magnifictnt results more than pay for every effort put forth. 

 The yield has been miraculous, 160 bus. or more of shelled 

 com per acre and it has even averaged on a number of acres 

 planted the same year 133 bushels shelled com per acre. Dur- 

 ing a continuous test of ten years on about 100 acres it has 

 averaged 125 bushels shelled com per acre. Is it any wonder 

 we have called such a wonderful com "Prosperity?" — it don't 

 seem possible to call it by any other name. "Prosperity" is 

 undoubtedly the most attractive, the largest, the finest, the 

 greatest yielding Yellow Dent Com ever produced. Pkt. 10c.

 purchased half bushel of Bolgiano's Famous Prosperity Yellow Dent Com from you, and from the com pro- 

 duced fro7n this seed I got from the Lynchburg Fair, Sept. 27, 28, 29 and 30th, out of $1400 prize offered, I got 

 $119. Six counties were represented at this Fair, and there was a great demand to know where and from 

 whom J purchased this seed, and I could have sold every busliel of my crop at $2 JO per bushel, but that would 

 be doing you as well as 7nyself a ?reat injustice, for I fetl that only just and honorable to myself I turned 

 them over to you. Twenty thousand people visited this Fair daily. I have been dealing withyou fortwenty 

 years and if yo7i wish a)iy reference as to the reliability and truthfulness of this statement we refer you to 

 Mr. John Victor, President of The Peoples National Bank of Lynchburg, Va.
