The following testimonials are 
from parties who have tried the 
Rockdale Corn last season: 
Mississreri1, August 30, 1893. 
Last Spring you gave me for trial 
a sample of field corn called the 
Georgia Snowflake (Rockdale). I W¥ 
planted it alongside of other varie- \\\\\W4z. 
ties and should say that it did re- \ ee 
markably well. The ears are 
throughout well filled and heavy, 
weighing from 12 to 15 oz. each 
and measuring from 8 to 10 inches 
in length. It was grown on sandy 
piney-woods soil, fertilized with 
stable-manure. I believe it worthy 
of a trial and will continue to 
plant it hereafter.

The sample of Snowflake Corn ( Rockdale ) 
you sent me last Spring turned out splendidly. 
I found it very prolific, makes a heavy stalk, 
does not grow too tall and the ears are of good

think it to be a fine corn for our climate.

Lovistana, September 12, 1893. 
During the month of May I received a small 
package of White Corn from you, which was 
called Snowflake (Rockdale). I gave it a fair 
trial alongside of other kinds and was well 
pleased with the result; it is quite early, prol- 
ific, bearing from two to three ears to a stalk, 
all large, well filled and covered tightly by 
the shuck. On rich soil it grows tall, some 
stalks measuring from 10 to 12 feet. I consider 
it the best White Corn I ever planted in this 
section.

Paragon Pea. (Introduced by W. H. 
Grenell). This is an excellent white wrinkled 
Pea, medium early, long straight pods con- 
taining six to nine peas. Stubbed stocky vine 
with luxuriant foliage, pods light green; 
quality superb, not excelled by any other kind 
and the largest producer known. 
I can substantiate the above statement of 
_ the introducer. I tried this pea the past season 
and found that it stood more heat, without 
being affected by mildew than any other kind. 
_ Those who like a first class tine flavored pea 
| should not fail to give it a trial.
