810 



Maule's 8afe Crop is an ideal early yellow dent corn, and we are glad to 

 say that after a thorough test the past few seasons, is now one of our leading 

 corn specialties. It has done so well with our customers that we feel sure it 

 will be as popular with all corn growers and progressive farmers as our Im- 

 proved Mastodon and Droughtproof. Maule's Safe Crop early yellow dent 

 corn matures its crop under favorable weather conditions in from 90 to 100 

 days. It has a strong root growth, which holds it up well during wind 

 storms. The stalks grow to a height of 9 to 10 feet, and being closely 

 jointed produce an abmidance of fodder. The ears average in length from 9 

 to lOJ inches, cob being very thin, often producing two large ears to a stalk; 

 the grains, which are very long and wide, are of a beautiful bright, golden 

 yellow color. It is a splendid yielder on light, thin soils, while on rich, 

 fertile soils it is a wonderful cropper, producing an average crop of 80 to 90 

 bushels per acre* Maule's Safe Crop early yellow dent corn will grow and 

 produce its crop in any corn growing State in the Union. We have reports 

 where it has been grown and matured in Michigan with perfect results.
