 F. W. Bolgiano & Co., 



Dear Sir: I must say that 

 I had the finest crops from 

 your seed any one ever saw. 

 The Ensilage Com could not 

 be better, 18 acres made over 

 300-ton of ensilage, besides I 

 had fed some before cutting.

YELLOW CORN 



Bolgiano's Prosperity 



p If you really want tc 



LjOrn. grow a bumper crop oi 



beautiful Yellow Dent Corn this 



year, just take our advice and 



plant Bolffiano's "Prosperity" Corn. 



The fine, large, stately ears are 12 



to 14 inches long, 8 to 11 inches 



in circumference and have from 



20 to 24 uniform rows of long, 



large kernels, well developed over 



tip and butt. It is a luxuriant 



grower, from 12 to 15 feet high, 



and if planted during the first half of May, will mature before the 



20th of September. For more than a score of years "Prosperity Corn" 



has been under the most watchful breeding and selection. 



This is a splendid Yellow Dent va- 

 riety with 18 to 24 rows of kernels 

 on an ear. The cob Is small and red and the grains are very close 

 together, so there is scarcely any room between the rows. Reid's Yellow 

 Dent has been awarded more prizes at Corn shows than any other variety 

 except "Prosperity." The ears average 8 to 10 Inches long. Matures 90 

 to 100 days.

 and make you a sure crop. Our stock is all hand shelled and gi-aded. 

 Only good sound ears are taken from healthy stalks. 



White Kaffir Corn 



Makes nutritious food for stock and poul- 

 try. Kaffir Corn in the last few years 



has been generally sown with Cow Peas, broadcast, at the rate of a peck 



of Kaffir Corn to a bushel of Cow Peas per acre. 



WHITE CORN 



Boone County White 

 (Pedigreed Stock) ^hu" 



corn on a white cob. Very deep 

 grain, not overly wide. Rows 

 generally 20, sometimes 22 to 24. 

 A perfect shape. That is the strik- 

 ing thing about it — big, long ears, 

 beautiful shape, perfect butts and 

 tips, and deep grains. We believe 

 this to be the best all-around White 

 Corn in existence. It is a heavy 

 yielder ; has small cob and pro- 

 duces good-sized fodder, free from 

 barren stalks. Matures in 110 days. 



"Hickory King" White ( 



Com ^° large are the grains 



and so small the cob that 



on an ear broken in half a single 



grain will almost cover the cob 



section. Of a strong growth, the 



stalks take a firm hold in the 



ground and stand upright. It 



yields splendid crops on light soils, 



and is undoubtedly the best and most productive White Field Com for 



. the South. 



Eureka Ensilage Com ^he very best Silo Com on the mar- 

 ° ket. For many years we have used 



great care in the selection of our seed, which will give a large amount 

 of fodder, 3 or 4 long, slender ears of Corn to the stalk. Grows to a 

 height of 15 feet. Can be sown in hills or planted in checked rows. 

 It is a very rapid grower and can be grown throughout the United States 

 with wonderful success. Growers should not miss planting this Ei>ecial 

 variety of ours for their Silo Corn.
