Field Seed[»~9S 



Improved Klondike Field Corn. 



A lihoroughbred that has fulfilled Its promise. Remarkable for eailiness and smallness of cob. 

 MftSrares oae to two weeks earlier than Mastodon. Cob a little thicker than the length of a grain. 

 Tlati H«w Klondike was brought to my attention a few years ago, and after a thorough trial I 

 beosBoi® soavlnced that I had a corn that could be honestly recommended as a rival of the famous 

 MsaaSodoa. To make assurance doubly sure 1 had it grown not merely in a small, experimental 

 way, but oxx a large scale, under ordinary field culture, by one of my seed corn growers, who an- 

 nually produces 1,000 bushels of Alaslodon for my trade. This afforded an excellent comparative 



test. The results surprised everybody connected with 

 the trial. Jlastodon on the farm has yielded for years 

 never less than 90 to 125 bushels of shelled corn per 

 acre. Klondike reached 125 bushels per acre the first 

 year it was tried there. 



'J'he Illustration on this page is an exact reproduc- 

 tion of an average ear. The color is a very deep yel- 

 low. The ear is borne low on the stalk, and there 

 are often two ears and sometimes three. The fodder 

 Is abundant, but not coarse. The grain is deep and 

 the ears are well filled. The corn may be ground 

 almost as soon as husked, as it dries rapidly. 



This year I ofler an improved Klondike that will 

 fully equal in yield-and every other quality the 

 K londike that i have been furnishing my customers 

 for the last five years, but above everything else, is 

 at least a week earlier, this fact making it infinite- 

 ly more valuable than ever before.

MINNESOTA KING FIELD CORN. 



Snow White Dent Corn. 



Has proven the grandest milling corn in the 

 world, and far above all other varieties of white 

 corn in its average yield and germinating power. 



In Snow W hlte Dent we have a corn that 

 combines very white color with large size, com- 

 pactness and smoothness of grain and sure ma- 

 turity. It has a medium ear and grows very 

 large, compact, close set grains well filled out. 

 Cob medium size, very white, and weighing 

 about 7V„ pounds per 70 pounds of ears. 



'J akin g all points into consideration. Snow 

 White Dent is the coming white variety for 

 milling and all other purposes.

Minnesota King. 



A Yellow Half-Dent Northern Field Corn. 



This famous eight-rowed field corn is neither 

 a dent nor aflint variety, but may be described 

 as a half dent. It is widely advertised as the 

 most valuable early field corn ever sent out. 

 The introducers claim that no other sort will 

 produce so largely and do so well, taking poor 

 years with good ones, as Minnesota King. It 

 is able to endure conditions of both flood and 

 drought with remarkable success, but what is 

 even more significant it can withstand changes 

 of temperature, and is but little injured by 

 heat or cold. It seems peculiarly adapted to 

 those locations where short seasons and early 

 autumn frosts make corn an uncertain crop. 



The grain is very broad and of an extremely 

 clear, golden color. The eight-rowed ear is of 

 good size and shape, with a small cob.
