THE WONDER OF THE CORN WORLD. 
Since its introdnction more seed of this xariety has been sold than any sort ever Intro- 
duced, and more bushels of it are now used hy the seed trade in filliuK orders than any other 
varitity of field corn. This, in itself, is a great recommendation for the merit of the Masta- 
don com. The Mastadon corn has the longest grains and largest ears of any 100- 
day corn in cultivation and will outyield any corn in the world. In the celebrated Am- 
erican Agiit^ulturist corn contest it far outyielcled every other yellow corn in America. Al- 
fred Rose, of Yate-s County, N. Y., grew on one acre 15,898 jwunds of ears or 213 bushels of 
shelled com, and George Gartner, Pawnee Count j-. Neb., grew from one acre ll,;j80 ix>unds of 
ears or 171 bushels of shelled corn. The largest yield of corn ever known in Ohio was a field 
of Mastadon grown on the Sage farm in 1894. We can produce any amount of testimon- 
ials from reliable farmers of yields of over 100 bushels shelled corn per acre. It is the strong- 
est grower and largest yielding field corn in cultivation. It hu.sks easy for so large a corn 
and shells ea.sy, and luis the longest grains of any kind we know of. Aiy one wishing proof 
of the above yield can obtain same by writing Alfred Rase, of Penn Yan, Yates County, N. Y.

|fv»>a SSIvf^l* niflP The most marvelous variety of corn ever offered and one 
lUWa. *:7iivvl 1 tliit^. which will surprise every one who plants it. If the farmers 
t*Ue hold of this as they should it will revolutionize the corn growing of this country. Just 
think of the wonderful yield. 215 bashels per acre with ordinary culture. We don't blame 
some practical farmers for looking incredulous when this is mentioned. We did not believe 
it ourselves until we had measured the ground and proved conclu-sively that the report' was 
correct. Seetl Corn is our great sw-cialty and we claim to be Corn experts. There are more 
fine points combined in this corn than any other in cultivation. 1st. It is as natural a yielder 
as weeds. 2d. It yields large croi>s on poor thin land. 3d. The ears are large, han<V>ome and 
w^cU filled. 4th. It hu-sks easy and shells easy. 5th. It always commands a high price and
