CORN.-Field Corn. 



The following varieties have all been grown especially for Seed. The Seed is well cured and true to name. 



i G °}? e u^ St is one or " S e ^ ost v « oro J»s growing varieties that we know of. The stalk is of medium height, short-jointed arid has broad 



leaves which help to mature the large crop of Corn which it produces. It is the deepest-rooted Corn that we Know of and therefore not 

 easily injured by hard wind storms nor are the roots so near the surface-as to be broken off and the vitality of the plant sapped and weakened 

 m cultivating the crop. 



The ears have usually eighteen to twenty rows. It is the most attractive 

 appearing Golden Yellow Corn that we know of, just as the Silver Mine is the 

 most attractive and best White Corn. There are many ears which measure eleven 

 inches in length and weigh one and one-half pounds, containing 1200 to 1500grains 

 to the ear. The kernels are of such shape that they wedge in tightly and make a 

 solid ear, not only at the cap, but also down near the point or germ end. It ma- 

 tures in about 100 days, 

 thus making it a safe corn 

 to plant and we claim that 

 it will yield a larger crop 

 than any other Yellow 

 Corn In existence..

 us in from 10U to 110 days, and makes a good crop, even in dr}' seasons, 

 by reason of its earliness in maturing and strong vigorous growth.

 the grains being so deep or long, yield an extra large quantity of shelled 

 corn per bushel of ears. Peck, 30c; bush., $1.00.
