BUeKBEE'S GREAT LIBERTY FIELD QORN 



Opens a New Bra of Profitable Corn Growing Throughout the Country, 

 More Good Points Combined in this Corn than any other in Cultivation.

"The Best Corn of the Century." Ro says Mr. C. S. Clark, of Wake- 

 man. Ohio — the largest grower of seed corn in the world — and his word 

 ia HONOR. 



R Veritable Gold Mine for Every Farm. 



Buckbee's Great Liberty Corn has never been known to fail in 



making a good crop. It's of a most remarkable type and color, being 

 very pure in growth and habit, yet of many beautiful colors (red, amber, 

 eol len yellow and golden cast, also dark red, all on one cob) , making 

 it the most beautiful Corn in the crib, on ear, or in the bag shelled. 



This new corn combines more solid merit than any corn in cultiva- 

 tion—more fine and lasting points. Its great merit lies in the fact that 

 it is a natural yielder. Expert Corn growers pronounce it "a Perfect 

 Field Corn as to yield, size of the ears, color, size of cobs, length of 

 grain, size of grain, size of fodder, size of growth of fodder, and the 

 extra fine quality of the fodder.
