TESTIMONIALS OF FARMERS WHO HAVE GROWN" IT : 
I consider it a superior variety, yielding more to the acre, 
weighing more to the bushel, and furnishing better etalks for 
fodder, than any of the kinds heretofore cultivated in this 
section.— S. TERRV HUDSON, Success, Suffolk Co., N. V. 
My experience with the Corn von sent me is highly satis- 
factory.— M. J. WHEELER, Great BABBEKGTOK, Mass. 
Far superior to any other variety that I have ever culti- 
vated.-! liOS. A. HALLOCK, Matfituck, Suffolk Co.,L. I. 
Superior In all respects to any other I have ever planted.—
