Buckbw'g Qrcai Liberty Com bas nevar been knowo to fail in maklog a 

 good crap. It's of a most remarkable type and color, being very 

 p ire in growth and habit, yet of many beautiful colors (red, am-

 a Perfect Field Com 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.
