Tait’s Virginia Mammoth Corn. 
Trucker’s Fuvorite We Relieve the early white corn is of much value to 
- all farmers. It often happens that some disaster to 
the regular corn crop necessitates replanting with some very early kind, and 
for such purpose we are sure Trucker’s Favorite will be found a very good sort, 
as its fine ears will mature in seventy-five days. It is sometimes used for 
“roasting ears.” Lb. 25 cts., 2 lbs. 40 cts., 5 lbs. 85 cts., 10 lbs. $1.50. Postpaid. 
Bushel 56 lbs., Freight or Express collect $5.60. 
Snowflake ^ popular selection from White Dent which matures about the 
- same time as Trucker’s Favorite, but with larger ear and deeper 
grain. A splendid sort for meal, and often used for “roasting ears.” Also good 
for thin land. Lb. 25 cts., 2 lbs. 40 cts., 5 lbs. 75 cts., 10 lbs. $1.35. Postpaid. 
Bushel 56 lbs., Freight or Express collect $4.48. 
Tait’s Thoroughbred Hickory King. ^ ell a kn ^ n ar lS e e fi |x- 
ample of the possibilities of plant breeding, since in a typical ear the end of a 
broken cob may be entirely hidden by a single kernel. It is of medium earliness, 
and if the soil be really good, there will be an average of two eight-inch ears to 
the stalk. It is a good sort for land which is rather thin. Lb. 25 cts., 2 lbs. 40 
cts., 5 lbs. 65 cts., 10 lbs. $1.20. Postpaid. Bushel, 56 lbs., Freight or Express 
collect, $2.50. 
Tait’s Thoroughbred Virginia Mammoth. ™* n spIe h d j d % 
from the well-known Horsetooth, always finds a more ready sale than any field 
corn on our list, and never disappoints the farmer who puts it on good soil. In 
earliness it does not compare with the early yellow varieties, but where this is 
not an important point it may be unreservedly commended as the most perfect 
white corn in existence for the tidewater section of Virginia and North Carolina. 
Lb. 25 cts., 2 lbs. 40 cts., 5 lbs. 65 cts., 10 lbs. $1.20. Postpaid. Bushel, 56 lbs., 
Freight or Express collect, $2.50. 
Virginia Horsetooth There can be no question of the usefulness of 
--- this famous corn on any land in high cultivation. 
We do not recommend it for thin soils, but under suitable conditions it will give 
a splendid yield. The ears, which are often twelve inches long, average fourteen 
rows, the grain being of extra length. Lb. 25 cts., 2 lbs. 40 cts., 5 lbs. 65 cts., 
10 lbs. $1.20. Postpaid. Bushel, 56 lbs., Freight or Express Collect, $2.25. 
Boone County Mammoth. 0ne of the best white field corns for s en - 
- eral use, and has taken many prizes at 
corn shows for perfect ears and enormous yields, the rows running from eighteen 
to twenty-four, and the cob is rather large; but the grain is deep, and the ears 
generally filled quite over the tips. On rich soil, both stalk and foliage make a 
strong, heavy growth, making it very desirable for ensilage. Lb. 25 cts., 2 lbs. 
40 cts., 5 lbs. 65 cts., 10 lbs. $1.20. Postpaid. Bushel, 56 lbs., Freight or Ex¬ 
press Collect, $2.25. 
Tait’s Thoroughbred Prolific. Now that prolific corns have become 
---so popular, we take pleasure in offer¬ 
ing this new sort. On land of good fertility it may be relied upon to produce 
from three to five ears to the stalk, although in our trials we have seen as many 
as six well developed ears on a single stalk. The cob and ear are of medium size 
and will mature in less than a hundred days. Every one interested in prolific 
corn should plant a portion of their crop in this variety. Lb. 25 cts., 2 lbs. 40 
cts., 5 lbs. 65 cts., 10 lbs. $1.20. Postpaid. Bushel, 56 lbs., Freight or Express 
Collect, $2.50. 
Bigff’s SgV 611 Enr Another prolific corn much liked in many sections of 
^ r? ^ _• Virginia and North Carolina, but we think less desir¬ 
able than Tait’s Thoroughbred Prolific. Lb. 25 cts., 2 lbs. 40 cts., 5 lbs. 65 cts., 
10 lbs. $1.20. Postpaid. Bushel, 66 lbs., Freight or Express Collect, $2.25.
