LATE SUGAR CORN 



Howling Mob. Height, 4 to 5 feet, usually 

 producing two good ears to the stalk, measur- 

 ing 7 to 9 inches in length, with 12 to 14 rows 

 of grains. Ready for market 4 to 6 days after 

 White Cory. An excellent sort. Pkt. 5 and 10 cts.; 

 pint25cts.; quart 40 cts.; peck $2.15; bus. $7.50. 



Stowell's Evergreen. This is not only the 

 most celebrated, but the most popular of all the 

 varieties, although not an early sort. It is, 

 without any exception, the best for table use of 

 the entire lot, although quite late. Some may 

 observe they have tried it and found it not 

 equal to the ordinary sugar. To such we say 

 you have not had the pure stock, as no variety 

 degenerates so quickly, unless the grower is ex- 

 ceedingly careful. Pkts. 5 and 10 cts.; pint 

 25 cts.; quart 40 cts.; gallon $1.35; peck 

 $2.25; bushel $8.00. Ears, $1.00 per dozen. 



Country Gentleman. The deep shoe -peg 



kernels are placed irregularly, but compactly, 

 upon the cob. It is very prolific, generally 

 bearing 3 to 5 ears to the stalk, and matures 

 a little before Stowell's Evergreen, being 

 sweeter and more sugary to the taste even than 

 that well-known standard of quality. Pkts. 5 

 and 10 cts.; pint 25 cts.; quart 40 cts.; gal- 

 lon, $1.35; peck $2.25; bushel, $8.00. Ears, 

 $1.25 per dozen. 



Black Mexican Sugar. Very sweet and ten- 

 der when ready for table ; grain is black. Pkts. 

 5 and 10 cts.; pint 25 cts.; quart 40 cts.; 

 gallon, $1.35; peck, $2.25; bushel $8 00. 

 Late Mammoth. A late sort on account of 

 its immense size, producing the largest ears of 

 any variety. These measure up to 14 inches in 

 length, and are well filled with large, broad 

 white kernels, which are sweet, tender and de- 

 licious. Usually there are 16 to 18 rows to 

 the ear. The stalks are very large, about 8 

 feet high and productive. Pkts. 5 and 10 cts.; 

 pint 25 cts.; quart 40 cts.; 4 quarts $1.35; 

 peck $2.25; bushel $8.00. Ears, $1.00 per dozen. 



Rice Pop Corn for Popping or Seed. 



short ; kernels long, pointed ; very prolific 

 perior to this for popping. 15 cts. per lb.; 



Howling Mob. 

 A very handsome variety; ears 



no variety of pop corn is su- 

 it by mail, 25 cts. per lb. 



Country Gentlemen. 



Boone County White (Pedigreed Stock). A 



pure white corn on a white cob. Very deep grain 

 not overly wide. Rows generally 20, sometimes 22 

 to 24. A perfect shape. That is the striking thing 

 about it— big long ears, beautiful shape, perfect 

 butts and tips, and deep grains. Grains fit very 

 tightly together, showing a square rather than a 

 rounded top. Stalks very strong and of medium 

 height. Ears always lop over, but shanks are not 

 long enough to blow off easily. Season about 110 

 days. Ripens in plenty of time in this latitude and 

 100 miles north. Pint 15 cts.; quart 20 cts.; peck 

 $1.00; bushel (56 lbs.) $3.50. 



Improved Learning. This matures in from 100 

 to 110 days and is very produtive — on good land the 

 stalks grow tall and frequently carry two ears. The 

 ears are long, with small red cob filled with golden 

 yellow kernels. Pint 15 cts.; quart 20 cts.; peck 

 $1X)0; bushel $3.50. 



SELECTED VARIETIES OF FIELD CORN 



Too much care cannot be given to the growing of field corn, which 

 has been acclimated to the locality, and that care has been used in selection 

 of the seed stock. Why produce SO bushels to the acre when with the same 

 work and same fertilizers you can grow from 70 to 100 bushels to the acre? 

 Hickory King. Broad, large, white grain, spe- 

 cially adapted to poor ground ; grows 2 to 3 ears to 

 the stalk. Pint 15 cts.; quart 20 cts; gallon 60 

 cts.; peck $1.00; bushel $3.50. 



Mammoth Golden Beauty. Large yellow grain ; 

 fine size ears; very small cobs. Pint 15 cts.; quart 

 20 cts.; peck $1.00; bushel $3.50. 



Choice White Dent. Long narrow grain; large 

 fodder; very prolific; large ears, small cob. Pint 

 15 cts.; quart 20 cts.; peck $1.00; bushel $3 50. 

 Eureka Ensilage. This is a remarkable corn, 

 producing an immense amount of fodder and a 

 heavy crop of long, slender ears with grain f 

 high quality. We do not know of anything finer 

 for ensilage than this variety, and every farmer 

 should pHnt it freely. Do not fail to try it this 

 year. Pint 15 cts.; quart 20 cts.; peck $1.00; 

 bushel $3.50.
