BUCKBEE'S GREAT WESTERN YELLOW DENT 



Has Given Great Satisfaction to Every 

 Grower for Many Years 



Stalks grow to a height of seven or eight feet, 

 and set the ears about three and one-half to four feet 

 from the ground — just the right height for easy pick- 

 ing. A wonderful peculiarity of this Corn is that it 

 never produces a barren stalk — every one has an ear, 

 and generally two, sometimes three. The type is 

 very even, ears measuring ten to twelve inches in 

 length, often weighing one and one-half pounds or 

 more. Very uniform in size and shape, with six- 

 teen to eighteen rows of deep, pure golden yellow 

 kernels set on small-sized cob, which is well filled 

 out over the tip and butt. The grains are of good 

 size, long, flat, and closely set together, deeply dented, 

 and solidly fill the entire surface of the ear. We call 

 this a one-hundred-day Corn, but 



IT OFTEN RIPENS IN NINETY-FIVE DAYS 



of average Corn weather. In its yield it will surpass 

 all other yellow varieties — seventy pounds in the ear 

 will make more than sixty pounds of shelled Corn. 

 Buckbee's Great Western Yellow Dent is ex- 

 tremely hardy and a determined drought re- 

 sister. It is adapted to a wider range of soil and 

 variety of climate than any yellow Corn ever offered. 

 No yellow Corn outshells or outyields it. After the 

 Corn is husked the stalks generally remain in fine 

 growing condition and make an exceptionally valu- 

 able forage crop. 



Hon. A. J. Lovejoy, 

 Roscoe, HI. 



The eminent Berkshire 

 Hog Breeder, writes: I 

 am greatly pleased with 

 tlie results that I liave ob- 

 tained by planting Buck- 

 bee's Great Western Yellow 

 Dent Corn for tlte past 

 number of years." 



BUCKBEE'S GREAT WESTERN WHITE DENT 



A most marvelous variety of White Corn which will, in 

 yield and quality, surprise everyone who plants it. Thousands of 

 my customers from every part of the country are more than pleased 

 with the wonderful results obtained by planting this grand, good, 

 reliable White Dent Corn. It is, indeed, a fitting companion to 

 Buckbee's Great Yellow Dent, the one being all 

 . : . that a White Dent ought to be, the other a Yellow 



y&iiSy&i* Dent of surpassing merit. The stalks generally 



bear two good ears each, and frequently three 

 are found. It yields splendid crops even on light 

 soil. All ears are uniform and well filled out, 

 and will easily make sixty pounds of shelled Corn 

 to the bushel. So general has the demand for 

 this great Corn become that I have found 

 it impossible to supply all calls for it the 

 past two years. My crop the past season 

 was a splendid one; but, 

 while we expect to fill all or- 

 ders, I cannot too strongly 

 urge you to place your or- 

 ders early.
