No. 1601— White Cap Yellow Dent 



(100 Day Bristol Strain) 



The 100 Day Bristol strain has been developed in the neighborhood of Penn's 

 Manor, near Bristol, Pennsylvania. It is somewhat smaller and earlier than the 

 White Cap Yellow Dent and accordingly matures farther north than the old 

 standard. The kernel is light yellow with a white cap, giving the ears an almost 

 pure white appearance. The cob is small and varies from white to red in color. 

 The stalk attains a height of 8 feet or more and is splendid for fodder. When 

 husked it is uniform in size and shape and in yield is up to standard. Price, not 

 including transportation, y 2 pk. 65c, 1 pk. $1.15, y 2 bu. $2.00, 1 bu. $3.50, 

 5 bu. $16.00.

An early dent corn which originated in Ohio. It matures in about 110 days. 

 The ears average 12 to 15 inches in length, with an average of 16 to 20 rows. The 

 kernels are wedge shaped, light yellow on the cap, shading reddish yellow. The 

 cob is small. The stalks will average 8 feet in height and are sufficiently heavy 

 to withstand high winds and storms. In the flint corn country it is valuable as 

 a silage corn. The corn we offer is grown in New Jersey. Price, not including 

 transportation, y 2 pk. 65c, 1 pk. $1.15, y 2 bu. $2.00, 1 bu. $3.50, 5 bu. $16.00. 



No. 1603— Reid's Yellow Dent 



This is one of the widely grown corns in the northern part of the corn belt. 

 Our experience has shown that it matures well in the latitude of Philadelphia. 

 Locally it is often confused with Learning, but is a much larger corn. It matures 

 in 115 days. The ear averages 12 to 14 inches long, usually with 18 rows. The cob 

 is very small. The kernels are a bright golden yellow and differ from Learning in 

 that the caps are rougher and the kernel more square in shape. The stalk grows 

 to a height of 8 feet or more and furnishes excellent fodder. In northern latitudes 

 it is used for silage corn. Price, not including transportation, y 2 pk. 65c, 1 pk. 

 $1.15, y 2 bu. $2.00, 1 bu. $3.50, 5 bu. $16.00. 



No. 1604— Eureka Ensilage 



This variety is one of the standard ensilage corns for the North. It surpasses 

 others in the great growth of foliage and the fact that in favorable seasons it bears 

 ears on the stalk. In the South it grows from 12 to 15 feet in height and produces 

 ears measuring 12 inches or more in length, with a small cob. The kernels are 

 pure white, almost square and exceptionally deep. The stock we offer has been 

 grown in the Central Virginia Plateau, which is conceded to be the best source for 

 seed corn of this variety. Price, not including transportation, y 2 pk. 65c, 1 pk. 

 $1.15, y 2 bu. $2.00, 1 bu. $3.50, 5 bu. $16.00.
