Field Seeds 
CORN, IMPROVED LEAMING L „ <( E<a cl0 „. 
The strain of Learning we offer is not the tall south¬ 
ern variety, but a strain that is very early, often maturing in 90 days. The stalk is very leafy and stocky, 
often bearing two large ears. Grains yellow, deep, and compactly set on small cob. The Learning has been 
more largely grown and given more general satisfaction than any other Corn ever offered. Its luxuriant 
growth of fodder makes it especially valuable in sections subject to droughts. Our stock is from a grower 
who makes this magnificent variety one of his specialties, and has by careful selection brought it up to a 
very high standard. Bus. $1.25. 
EXTRA-EARLY WATERLOO DENT 
After two years’ trial on a large scale, we have concluded that this is the earliest Dent Corn grown. 
Good-sized stalks and ear, small red cob, long deep grain, very rich in oil and starch, and the only 
smooth, very early Dent Corn known. Ears wonderfully perfect, grained evenly on both ends of cob ; 
has quick, rank, strong growth, and is very productive ; it heads the list of all extra-early varieties. Our 
supply is genuine, and from the originator’s stock, strictly pure and carefully selected. Bus. $2. 
“ PRIDE OF THE NORTH ” 
This famous Corn still retains its popularity as an exceedingly early and prolific variety, always 
maturing in 90 days ; often shelling 62 pounds of grain from 70 pounds of ears. Kernels closely set, 
large, of deep orange color ; cob very small and red ; stalks about 7 feet in height. This is probably the 
best Dent Corn for general cultivation in the North, and is now largely used in the South and West, as it 
matures its crop before the hot winds affect it. We offer pedigree seed grown with care from the original 
stock. This Corn is not fully appreciated until the large yield and small percentage of cob to Corn are 
carefully noted. Bus. $r.25.
