kernels of any variety—has a rich golden butter color—- 
very fine flavor—crisp and tender. The ears are much

kernels are golden yellow color. It is the most profitable 
variety to grow as it produces more bushels per acre on 
account of its large ears. This Pop Corn is of South 
American origin. We have successfully matured our own 
special seed crop here in Minnesota so that the seed we 
offer will mature earlier. S. A. Yellow Pop Corn can¬

Make More Money 
Grow Better POP CORN Varieties 
Pop corn is a profitable crop and one that is always 
easily disposed of, because of the large demand for corn 
for popping. _ It yields well even in unfavorable corn 
seasons. It is an excellent crop for the boys and girls 
to grow, and yields almost as much good fodder as field 
corn. 
Plant 12 pounds to the acre, in drills, or use 6 pounds 
if planted in hills. Plant in rows 3 feet apart, dropping 
the seed 1(4 feet apart in the rows. We have discarded 
all but the outstanding varieties of Pop Corn and proven 
money-makers. Such old timers as White Rice and White 
Spanish cannot compete in quality and flavor with the 
newer introductions. 
252. NEW HYBRID JAP HULLESS -Here is 
the last word m pop corn—the latest triumph of the 
Minnesota Experiment Station, far surpassing standard 
Jap Hulless in yield and popping expansion. Minn. Sta¬ 
tion records over 3 years show 16% greater yield per 
acre. Its most amazing fea¬ 
ture is apparent when the 
corn is popped, for it expands Stowell’s Evergreen. 
t° a surprising volume One of the Best Late 
(measured at 29% more than Varieties, 
ordinary Jap Hulless). This 
huge popping volume makes 
this the most highly prized 
corn for popping and commercial use. We do not hesi¬ 
tate in recommending it as the finest pop corn obtain¬ 
able from the standpoint of quality, flavor and tender¬ 
ness. _ (See note page 8 on saving seed from Hybrid 
plantings). Seed is exceptionally scarce as this variety 
has just been introduced. Offered in packets and half 
pounds only. Pkt. 15c, (4 lb. 35c, (4 lb. 60c, prepaid. 
249. JAPANESE HULLESS -This dwarf corn is

2 to 3 inches long, but every kernel on the cob will pop, 
so there is no waste. Japanese Hulless Pop Corn is al¬ 
most again as productive as White Rice. The kernels are 
longer and more slender, and have no hulls. 2(4 oz. pkt.
