JOHNSON 6r STOKES' NEW QldNT BEAUTY CORN 



In the new Giant Beauty we have a very valuable and long-sought-for variety, viz.: A very large eat 

 and grain, yet a very early Yellow Dent Corn. Giant Beauty is a cross between Cloud's Early Den 

 and Golden Beauty, possessing the earliness and deep grain of the former, with the handsome, deep 

 yellow color and breadth of grain of the latter. It is absolutely the largest grained of all yellow 



corn. Its small red cob and great depth of grain are well shown in our photograph above, made 

 from average ears. Its rich, deep golden color and fine quality of grain make it very superior for 

 grinding into meal, and indicate its strong, nutritive qualities. It is a very vigorous grower, taking 

 strong hold in the ground and averaging eight feet in height, producing two large ears, well filled to the 

 extreme ends of the cob. The most perfect type of Yellow Field Corn ever introduced. Pkt., 10c. ; 

 ear, 25c; lb., 30c; 3 lbs., 75c, postpaid, bv mail; bv express or freight, sacks included, peck, 75c; bush., 

 $2.25 ; sack of 2 bush., $4.25 ; 10 bush, arid over, $2.00 per bush. ; 50 ears, $3.00; 100 ears for $5.00. 



THE lOO-Drir BRISTOL FIELD CORN 



When we first saw this corn growing in the field, with its enormous stalks and fodder, twice the 

 height of an ordinary-sized man, and its magnificent ears, averaging nearly a foot in length, as shown in 

 photograph below, we were inclined to doubt its earliness. But after growing it ourselves and on the 

 farms of hundreds of our customers, the past four seasons, we have found it cut and shocked ready for 

 husking in ninety-five to one hundred days from the time the seed was planted. The grain is a light 

 yellow ; the cob is small considering the size of the ear. It will produce as much fodder and more corn 

 than the famous Chester County Mammoth and other late varieties, which require three to four weeks 

 longer to ripen. In fact, it is a "perfect field corn in all respects. Prices, pkt., 10c; ear, 25c; lb., 30c; 

 3 lbs., 75c, postpaid, by mail ; by express or freight, shelled, peck, 75c; bush., $2.25 ; sack of 2 bush., 

 $4.25 ; 10 bush, and over, $2.00 per bush.; 50 ears, $3.00 ; 100 ears, $5.00, sacks included.
