J. STECKLER SEED CO., LTD., ALMANAC AND 
a 
IMPROVED INDIAN SQUAW CORN. 
Is a soft corn, it is greatly relished by all kinds of stock. The ears 
grow from 10 to 12 inches long and carry from ten to twenty-four rows 
of plump grains. The grains present a combination of colors; some are 
red, others yellow, some blue, and some white. It is really a most 
attractive Corn, either on the cob or shelled, in the crib or in the bag. 
The Improved Indian Squaw Corn is, to our knowledge, the quickest- 
maturing Corn. It is ready to gather eighty-five days after the seed is 
planted. Planted after wheat was harvested in July, it made a fine 
crop. We cannot too strongly recommend this Corn, which opens a 
new era of profitable Corn-growing, particularly for the Southwest. 
Price quart, 30c.; gallon, 75c.; peck, $1.00; bushel, $3.00.

flesh, fine color, increased size, better constitution and productiveness.
