MINNESOTA GROWN. One of the best extra early yellow 
varieties in our entire list. It matures its crop in 80 
days, which is of special interest to the farmers of the North- 
west. The ears (borne two on a stalk) are large, long, 12 to 
i6 rowed. The kernels are extra long and the cob small.

great essentials to all growers. Peck 75c., bushel $2.50.
