New Early Klondike 



THE BEST YELLOW DENT CORN 



FOR NORTHERN LATITUDES 



A magnificent variety of 90-day Corn. The result of many years' careful 

 hybridization. It has given splendid results, particularly throughout- the northern 

 Corn belts, since its introduction. If you want a Corn that matures quickly, this is 

 the Corn to buy. It is good to harvest early in the fall, to enable you to seed the 

 ground with other grain. 



WORLD-BEATING IN ITS CLASS 



You can earn yoiu- money very quicklj'^ by planting this great variety, and you may de- 

 pend upon it to grow more bushels on paor land than any othor early variety known. On 

 ordinarily fair ground it will yield from 90 to 110 bushels ^er acre. It produces a small cob, 

 which dries quickly and leaves the com soun i and sweet. The ears are of excellent size, and an 

 abundance of the finest quaUty of fodder is asstu'ed. It stands drought better than any other va- 

 riety; husks and shells easily. Earliest Com to market, and will prove a veritable money producer
