 est corns grown. It is a dwarf, medium early variety of ex- 

 ceptionally good quality. In all respects it is a gem — in size 

 of plant, ear and grain. It is particularly well adapted to 

 small gardens on account of its small size; to the more pre- 

 tentious on account of its excessive cropping ability on a 

 given area, and to all because of its superb quality and lus- 

 cious satisfying flavor. Pkt. 10 cts.; pt, 30 cts.; qt. 55 cts., 

 postpaid; pk. $1.85; bu. $6.50.

 "Golden Bantam," sweeter flavor, ears larger and pure white

 3 to 4 ears to the stalk, 6 to 7 inches long. A wonderful corn 

 for early home use. Pkt. 10 cts.; pt. 30 cts.; qt. 55 cts., post- 

 paid; pk. $1.75; bu. $6.50.
