 grown. It is a dwarf, medium early variety of exceptionally 

 good quality. In all respects it is a gem — in size of plant, 

 ear and grain. It is particularly well adapted to small gar- 

 dens on account of its small size; to the more pretentious on 

 account of its excessive cropping ability on a given area, and 

 to all because of its superb quality and luscious satisfying 

 flavor. Pkt. 10 cts.; pt. 35 cts.; qt. 60 els., postpaid; pk. 

 $2.65; bu. $9.50.

 yielder, 3 to 4 ears to the stalk, 6 to 7 inches long. A wonder-
