NOTICE — The most serious question entering our minds today (our catalog ready to go to press) whether or 

 not we may offer Field Corn. We were in hopes, in spite of the most unfavorable conditions that prevailed in the 

 large corn growing sections, that we would be able to secure seed enough to cover our usual requirements. But the 

 conditions seem worse today, and very little if any good germinable seed will be obtainable; therefore we beg to have 

 you write in due time for planting, as to price and quantity desired. 



EARLY YELLOW DENT 



This corn is known in Wisconsin as "Wisconsin No. 8" and in Minnesota as "Minnesota No. 13," the parent 

 stock of what is now known as "Wis. No. 8" having been secured by the Wisconsin Experiment Station from Prof. 

 Hays of the Minnesota Experiment Station in 1902, as Minnesota No. 13. It is noted for its early maturity, and 

 can be depended on to ripen anywhere in Wisconsin, or in the same latitude in other states. It has shown its great 

 value as an ideal Northern Wisconsin variety. It makes a fairly large stalk growth, well clothed with leaves. The 

 ears average 7 to 8 inches long. 



WHITE CAP YELLOW DENT 



The Best Corn for the Northwestern Stockman. Yields More First-Class Fodder than Any Other. 

 Unexcelled for Silage. The grain is deep, flat and closely set together on handsome ears, white at the tip end, bal- 

 ance yellow. Ripens in 90 to 95 days and is a sure variety to use in Wisconsin. Fodder strong and stocky, well 

 furnished with leaf stalks; height from 7 to 8 feet. 



MINNESOTA KING— HALF DENT 



For the North we consider this one of the most valuable Corns grown. Matures a week earlier than 

 any of the Dent sorts. The ears are a fair size, with eight rows of broad, yellow kernels, half way between Flint 

 and Dent. Possessing a remarkably vigorous constitution, it continues to grow and mature under conditions that 

 would render any other sort a failure. It is just the Corn for wet, cold seasons. 



KING OF EARLIES DENT 



Color, bright golden yellow. The stalks grow from 6 to 8 feet in height, and are thickly covered with leaves 

 close to the ground, yielding a'large amount of excellent fodder. The ears are medium in length, cob very small, 

 closely set with long, deep kernels. This Corn is eminently adapted for planting in the northern limits of the Corn 

 Belt, and will mature a crop in 85 to 95 days. 



CURRIES EARLIEST OF ALL 



The Earliest Dent Corn in Existence. Matures in about 60 days from time of planting. Yields two to 

 three ears to the Stalk. Furnishes Fodder in the hot, dry summer months. 



Planted at the same time as other Corn, Ciirrie's Earliest of All will be ready for use in July. The stalks grow 

 about 6 feet in height, well clothed with leaves with rich feeding qualities. It will not take the place of King of the 

 Earlies or other large-eared, heavy yielding sorts, but where extreme earliness is desired there is no other variety equal 

 to it. A highly profitable variety to grow in sections where even the earliest of the heavier yielding Dent sorts cannot 

 be depended upon to mature a crop. 



PRIDE OF THE NORTH — Extensively grown in the Northwestern States. It is very much the same in general 

 characteristics as King of the Earlies, maturing in about the same length of time and yielding an equal quantity of 

 fodder and grain. 

 Early Wisconsin White Dent — The stalks average 8 feet, and are thickly furnished with foliage close to the ground. 



The ears are large, with 16 to 20 rows in large, deep kernels, which are closely set on a small white cob. It occupies 



the same place amojig White Dent sorts that King of the Earlies does in the yellow. 



EARLY FLINT CORN 



Angel of Midnight Flint — An extra early yellow Flint, 8-rowed variety. Ear 10 to 13 inches; stalks of medium size. 

 Canada Smut Nose Flint — A favorite extra early, golden-yellow sort. Ears 8-rowed and very long. 



Extra Early, Canada Flint — For the North is an exceedingly valuable variety. The ears are long with eight rows 



of bright golden-yellow Corn. 

 Longfellow Flint — A prolific early-8-rowed yellow variety of very handsome appearance. The ears are close, with 



large, broad kernels. 

 Wisconsin White Flint (Sanford's) — An excellent variety of good size; grain a dusky white color. The best and 



earliest of all Flint sorts. Price of Flint Corns, subject to market changes. 



CURRIES PEDIGREE RED COB FODDER 



CORN 



This variety is now grown in great quantities in the large dairy regions of Wisconsin, 

 for early use. It is sweet, tender and juicy, has short joints, abundance of leaves, and grows 

 to a great height, furnishing more than double the bulk of ordinary field Corn. Not 

 recommended_for silo. Peck $1.00; bushel $3.00. Subject to market changes.
