it grows 8 feet high, and from a kernel sends enough stools to produce 100 ears. Its strong points 
are; 1 — Twenty-five barrels of flour can be grown from 1 acre, and this flour is of as fine a grade 
as is made of Dakota hard wheat, which is five times as much as wheat produces per acre. 2 — 
The br" 'd and biscuits baked therefrom are fully as palatable as from any flour known. 3 — When 
boiled in a green state it has no superior among Sweet porn, 
while its yield is thrice that of S%veet Corn. 4 — Matures in all 
latitudes where corn ripens. 5 — Cultivate as you would corn, 
allowing 2 kernels to a hifl. 6 — On our own grounds it yielded 
at the rate of 100 tons per acre of green fodder, of the most
