MINNESOTA KING CORN (Half Dent.) 



For the North we coiisider this the most valuable Corn grown. Matures a week earlier 



than any of the Dent Sorts. 



This' is an exceedingly valuable Corn for the Northwest, where the pent sorts cannot 

 be depended upon to mature a crop in seasons like the past two. The ears are a fair 

 size, with eight rows of broad yellow kernels, half way between flint and dent. 

 The stalks average 7 feet in height, the ears being set about 3 feet from the 

 ground. It possesses a remarkably healthy and vigorous constitution, thereby 

 enabling it to withstand all extremes in the weather much better than 

 any other, so that it continues to grow and mature under conditions 

 that would render any other sort a failure. "Whatever the reason 

 is it appears to possess the faculty of growing under adverse 

 circumstances, and is just the Corn for wet, cold seasons 

 like last. 



Our stock of this variety is rather limited this sea- 

 son. We would therefore urge intending pur- 

 chasers to secure their supply as soon as pos- 

 sible. 



Quart 15c (by mail 30c per quart); 

 peck 65c; bushel $2.00; 2y 2 bush- ^ 



els $4.75. 



Our Seed Corn is 

 all Fire Dried so 



as to avoid all 

 danger of im- 

 paired vitality by 

 a tmospheric 

 changes. 

 This precaution 

 alone is worth 

 much more to the 

 planter than the 

 price of the corn. 



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

 sively as almost to exclude all of the other so-called Fodder Corns, and the ver- 

 dict is that It is the best. It is sweet, tender and juicy; has short joints, abun- 

 dance of leaves, and grows to a great height, furnishing,- more than double the 

 bulk and much more nourishment than ordinary neld Corn. .Every lot is tested 

 and recleaned, hence you buy no cobs or dirt. Peck 30c; bushel $1.00. 



EARLY WISCONSIN WHITE DENT CORN. 



The Earliest and Best White Dent Corn. 



This is by far the best White Corn for the Northern latitudes. The stalks grow 

 to an average height of 8 feet, and are thickly furnished with foliage close to the 

 ground. The ears are large, with 16 to 20 rows of large deep kernels, which are 

 closely set on a small white cob. It occupies the same place among White Dent 

 sorts that King of the Earlies does in the yellow. 



Last season in sections of Wisconsin where other varieties of Corn were almost 

 an entire failure immense crops of this handsome White Dent Corn were secured. 

 A customer in Waukesha County who planted a large acreage of this variety tells 

 us that his corn matured ahead of any of his neighbors, and he estimates his yield 

 at about double that of any of them. He shipped us a quantity of as handsome 

 corn as we have ever seen (all of this variety) for exhibition at the World's Fair, 

 St. Louis (the Agricultural Exhibit for the State of Wisconsin being in our 

 charge). Give it a trial.
