Ohio Grown 
BERGER’S EARLY ORANGE DENT. This 
Corn was originated in northern Ohio, therefore, 
making it one of the earliest Yellow Dent Field 
Corns in cultivation. In a normal season this 
Corn should mature in 90 days. Grows strong, 
hardy fodder, 7 to 10 feet high. Ears contain 
14 to 18 rows of good long grains, on red cob. 
Its beautiful deep Orange color on the ear and 
shelled has a strong appeal, while its earliness 
and size make it one of the most profitable 
varieties to grow. 
MEDINA PRIDE. An early maturing Yellow 
Dent Corn. The Ohio Experiment Station Bulle¬ 
tin recommends this variety for practically the 
whole tier of the eastern counties of Ohio and 
especially the northeastern part of the State 
where high yields of sound Corn have been 
consistently made. The ears average from 10 
to 12 inches in length slightly tapering, with 
twelve rows of good size kernels. We recom¬ 
mend this Corn without hesitation as a very 
desirable early variety well worth a trial.

sorts to raise. Succeeds on almost any kind of

OHIO IMPROVED CLARAGE. This Corn 
originated in Ohio and has scored a wonderful 
success with farmers here. It is medium early, 
maturing in about 100 days. The stalks are of 
medium size, ears from 7 to 9 inches long, grains 
wide and very deep on a small cob, which ac¬ 
counts for its immense yields of shelled Corn 
to the acre, several years ago the world’s record 
was broken with this Corn by an Ohio farmer. 
The color is a beautiful golden yellow, and the 
ears are filled to the very tip. Even when the 
season is late, IMPROVED CLARAGE ma¬ 
tures perfectly. The seed we offer is grown 
from registered seed in the north-central part of 
Ohio, is carefully selected, and true to type.
