gold standard leaming — The Feeder's Corn 
BRED FROM THE ORIGINAL 
J S. LEAMING CORN 
We have increased the size of ears 
and percentage of grain by breeding 
from tapering to cylindrical shape. We 
have also increased depth and roughness 
of kernel and feeding value by increase 
of protein and fat. The ears range from 
9 to 11 inches long, 7 J to 8 inches in 
circumference, weighing 12 to 17 ounces. 
The stalks range from 9 to 12 feet in 
height, are well developed below the ear 
and slender above. They are very valu- 
able for ensilage, and thrive well on all 
soils where many other varieties fail. 
It is an immense yielder, producing, 
under favorable conditions, 100 bushels 
or more to the acre. By mail, postpaid,

Improved GOLDEN B EAUTY 
HAS THE LARGEST GRAIN AND SMALLEST COB OF ANY CORN IN CULTIVATION 
The productiveness of the Golden Beauty Corn is due to the economical shape of the ears and the fact that a large proportion of the stalks 
produce fine ears. It is the largest-grained and handsomest golden yellow Corn we have ever seen. The ears are of perfect shape, with 10 to 14 
straight rows. Cobs are unusually small ; when broken in half the grains will reach across them. The richness of color and fine quality of grain 
make it superior for grinding into meal. We can guarantee this Corn to give good satisfaction wherever grown. Lb. 25 cts., 3 lbs. 60 cts., post= 
paid ; by freight or express, pk. 50 cts., bus. $1.50, 2 bus, sack, $2.85. 
HOLMES' early GOLDEN DENT 
No other Corn has given such general satisfaction as this variety, which was introduced by as. The Corn is light golden in color, very 
characteristic of this variety. The ears are 9 to 11 inches long, 7 to 8 inches in circumference, 18 to 24 rows of kernels, each row containing 56 
to 60 kernels. The ears weigh 11 to 16 ounces and are cylindrical from butt to tip. The cob is completely covered with solid Corn and the ears are 
remarkably uniform. The cob is red in color, medium to small, with small shank, making it very easy to shuck. It matures in from 90 to 100 days.
