Bolgiano's Wonderful Prosperity Yellow Dent Corn 



Will Out Yield Any Other Variety of Yellow Corn 



Bolgiano's Prosperity Yellow Dent Corn is the most attraccive, 

 largest, finest, and greatest 3'lelding corn ever introduced. 



When we brought out this corn over twenty years ago, it was the best 

 yellow corn we had ever seen, and today it is "far better, than when we 

 introduced it, as we have improved it year by year by very careful selection 

 and breeding, by these painstaking efforts adding three more rows to the cob 

 and increasing the depth of the grain, besides adding to its beautiful deep 

 golden color. 



We know of no yellow corn today that will equal Prosperity in appear- 

 ance and yield. The grains are large and deen and cover the cob over the tip. 

 It is a luxuriant grower, the fodder attaining a height of twelve to fifteen 

 feet in good soil. 



When grown in the vicinity of Baltimore it is ready to cut in from 110 

 to 120 days from time of planting. 



If you want to grow- the biggest and best crop of corn, you have ever 

 raised, let us persuade vou to use Bolgiano's Prosperity, we cannot afford to 

 mislead you. Pk. $1.00. Bu. $3.50. 



Mammoth Golden Beauty Corn. A very good yielding variety, ears 

 averaging 9 to 12 incnes in length, with grains somewhat broader than 

 Reid's Yellow Dent, and of attractive color. Pk. 9.5c. Bu. $3.00. 



Mr. J. B. Harner, of Watjnesboro, Va., writes under date of October 2.5, 

 197.3. 



The Prosperity Seed Corn u-hich'I ordered from you m ifte Spring, has 

 proven to be great corn. 



The germination was good, and we had a good stand from the first ■ 

 planting. I cut the corn 10 by 12 making 120 hills to the shock. 



Th€ peck of corn I pui-chased from you made over GO barrels of good 

 sound corn. 



1140. Reid's Yellow Dent. This is a splendid Yellow Dent variety 

 with 18 to 24 rows of kernels on an ear. The cob is small and red and the 

 grains are very close together. The ears average 8 1o 10 inches long. The 

 stalk is ver3' heavy and is not easily blown down. It matures in 100 days 

 and is a heavy yielder in the Middle and Southern States. Pk. 85c. Bu. $2.75. 



1143. Improved Learning Corn. Its extreme earliness and fine 

 quality has made it very popular with the farmers, and especially with 

 those in the localities where the seasons are short. It produces from 65 to 

 90 bushels to the acre, in accordance with the quality of the soil. The 

 ears and grains are of medium size. Pk. 85c. Bu. $2.75. 



White Varieties of Seed Corn 



1299. Eureka Ensilage Corn. The very best Silo Corn 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 plant- 

 ing this special variety of ours for their Silo Corn. Pk. 85c. Bu. $2.75. 



114S. " Hickory King " White Corn. So 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, resisting severe storms. It yields splendid 

 crops on light soils, and is undoubtedly the best and most productive White 

 Field Com for the South. Pk. 85c. Bu. $2.75. 



1148. Bolgiano's Cuban Giant Ensilage Corn, We have thoroughly 

 tested the Cuban Giant beside all large white grain ensilage varieties. 

 Grains are pure white, very large, broad and long. Of stronger vitalit.v than 

 any other variety. It is the best milk producer of all ensilage Corns, being 

 ag sweet as Sugar Corn. Out yields the Red Cob Ensilage and is 10 to 12 

 days earlier. Pk. 85c. Bu. $2.75. 



1214. Evergreen Broom Corn. Improved, An excellent variety : is 

 a good length, fine, straight and has a green appearance when ripe, and sells 

 at the highest market price. Sow in drills three feet apart and thin out to 

 three inches. Sow 5 pounds per acre. Lb. 15c. 



1215. Collier's Excelsior White Corn. We believe this to be the 

 best all around AVhite Corn in existence. It is a heavy yielder ; has large 

 ears, deep grain, small cob and produces good-sized fodder, free from barren 

 stalks. Matures in 110 to 115 days. Pk. 85c. Bu. $2.75. 



1054. Red Cob 90-Day Corn, This Corn meets a long felt want, 

 because it can be used as a roasting ear Corn and when fully matured makes 

 a first-class Crop Corn for feeding stock. The ear is large, handsome, suits 

 for an early crop or for a late crop, because it matures in 90 days. This 

 makes it always a safe and profitable crop. Pk. 85c. Bu. $2.75. 



1142. Maryland White Corn. This very handsome Corn is the 

 favorite of old farmers who like a big grain on a small cob. The grain is 

 pure white, with good-sized ear, having ten rows to the cob. Used for gen- 

 eral crop. Pk. 85c. Bu. $2.75.

 extensively and profitably in cornfield. Lb. 50c. 



Sorghum 



1146. Early Amber Sorghum. Furnishes a large yield of most 

 nutritious forage, which can be fed either green or cured, and will yield 

 2 or 3 cuttings a year, stooling out thicker each time it is cut. It grows 

 10 to 12 feet high. Sow broadcast for forage at the rate of 1 to 1% bushels 

 per acre. When sown in drills, sow at the rate of 1 peck per acre in drills 

 3% to 4 feet apart. Please write for prices. 



1158. Early Orange Sorghum. This variety is rapidly growing in 

 favor wherever it is grown. Similar in growth to Early Amber, but it is 

 claimed that it produces a heavier crop. Please write for lowest prices.
