Oolcleii Beauty, This variety is the handsomest of all yellow 

 corn : the ears arej^f a perfect shape, long, and filled out to the ex- 

 treme end of the cob. The grains are not of a flinty type, neither are 

 They so soft as to be greatly shriveled, as in the Golden Dent. Golden

 stalk it can be planted much thicker than a large Corn, and. at the

?lo$by*s Prolific Corn. This is a Southern Corn, and is re- 

 commended for general crop. The originator of this variety says : 

 ■' This corn is a cross between two widely different varieties. It is 

 purely white, small cob, deep, full grain, neither too hard nor too 

 soft. It will stand crowding in the drill as close again as any other 

 variety. Ears of medium size, but long. It stands the drought better 

 than ordinary corn." 



I sold a large quantity of this corn for seed the past year, and 

 have found it to do better than any other White Corn I ever saw planted 

 in Louisiana. Eecommend it very highly.
