EARLY GOLDEN ORANGE (Henderson's) DIAMOND JUBILEE (Henderson's) 



A 90 to 100 Day Variety. Long Desired by the Northern 

 Farmer. Ears 8 to 11 inches long. 14 to 18 rows of Kernels 



For a number of years past there has been an insistent demand in 

 the North and East for a really early variety of Golden Dent Field 

 Corn; one that would mature in from 90 to 100 days of corn-growing 

 weather. 



It is at least ten to fifteen days earlier than any other Dent variety, 

 maturing in about ninety to one hundred normal corn days and 

 specially adapted for short seasons of the Northern latitudes. 



The statks are about 10 to 12 feet high, very strong and rank. 

 The ears grow eight to eleven inches long and contain 14 to 18 rows 

 of ker/ysls on a red cob. The grains are deep and solid making it 

 very heavy in grain and a wonderful sheller. 



Henderson's Early Golden Orange Dent Corn also produces good 

 fodder, and we are sure we will make a firm friend of every Northern 

 Farmer we ship it to. 



The ears for shelling were all selected by hand. We advise early 

 orders as the stock this year is limited. 



Price, SOc per qt.; $1.00 per half-peck; $1.75 per peck; $5.00 per 

 bushel. 



EUREKA, YELLOW (Henderson's) 



A tremendous yielder. 150 bushels of shelled corn per acre,is not 

 unusual. 



Gives unqualified satisfaction from New Jersey to Ohio and South. 

 Price, SOc per qt.; $1.10 per peck; $3.75 per bushel. 



LEAMING Improved

 ard sort. 



Price, 50c per qt.; $1.10 per peck; $3.75 per bushel. 



LONG'S CHAMPION, YELLOW 



In the last 15 years on a section of 90 acres this Corn has 



yielded an average of 133 bushels of Shelled Corn per 



acre and has yielded as high as 160 bushels 



'This King of Corns is without doubt the most productive Yellow 

 Dent Corn ever produced, and will be found to be of great value to 

 the farmer, especially in the Middle and Eastern States, where from 

 120 to 130 days of good corn-growing weather can be relied upon: on 

 account of its immense yield, at least 25 per cent, and often 50 per 

 cent, more than can be obtained from the old-type varieties. 



The ears are of immense size, 12 to 14 inches in length, 8 to 11 

 inches in circumference, carrying 20 to 24 uniform rows of long, large 

 kernels well developed over tip and butt. 



It is a luxuriant grower, about 12 to 15 feet high, and in Lebanon 

 County, Pa., where it originated, has never failed to mature by Sep- 

 tember 20th. when planted during the first half of May. 



Long's Champion is the result of years of breeding and selection by 

 Mr. I. S. Long, of the Pennsylvania Corn Belt. 



Price, 50c per qt.; $1.50 per peck; $4.50 per bushel. 



Matures in 110 Days. Small Cob. 70 Pounds of 



£ars Produces 62 Pounds of Corn 



The ears average ten to fourteen inches in length, are of a beautiful 

 golden-yellow color, and are produced low down on the stalk. The cob 

 is red, small and firm, and covered with eighteen to twenty-two rows 

 of deep, heavy grain. Seventy pounds of the ears will, when dry, 

 shell sixty to sixty-two pounds of Corn. The ears are of surpassing 

 uniformity, which accounts for the extra good yield of over one hun- 

 dred bushels per acre when planted on good corn land. 



The stalks are about twelve feet in height, standing up well. The 

 foliage is luxuriant, the stalks being furnished to the bottom, making 

 the fodder of exceptional feeding value. 



It is from ten to fourteen days earlier than Long's Champion, and 

 can be planted further North, with every chance of fully maturing. 



We recommend planting it in hills, three and one-half feet apart 

 each way, allowing three plants to the hill. When planted in rows, 



allow the same distance 



between the drills and 

 about sixteen inches be- 

 tween the plants. {See 

 illustration.)

 mond Jubilee cannot

FLINT VARIETIES ^"""i'L?"- 



EXTRA EARLY YELLOW 



This is the earliest variety in existence and especially adapted to 

 Northern conditions (cool nights and short summers). The ears are 

 eight- rowed, frequently measuring 15 inches and over, of a rich 

 amber color, thickly set with large broad kernels. The stalks are of 

 medium height. In ordinary seasons it will mature in ninety days, 

 and can be shelled and ground for feed earlier than any other large- 

 yielding variety. It is especially valuable in sections where Corn 

 can not be planted before the middle of June. With good cultivation 

 it will yield 90 bushels of shelled Corn per acre. Specially recom- 

 mended for planting in northern New York, Connecticut and Mas- 

 sachusetts.
