Early Canada. Very early, ears medium size, usually 
ripens in August. Ripens well in the Northern States; 
a popular New England variety.

Longfellow. Very largely grown in New England; is 
eight-rowed, yellow kernel and good size. Cob is quite 
small and ears are from 10 to 15 inches long. Ripens 
excellently in Massachusetts.

and broad kernel. Very prolific and excellent quality. 
In some sections grown largely for ensilage Corn on 
account of its foliage. 
Lb. 20c., 7 lbs. 75c., 14 lbs. $1.25, 56 lbs. $4.00. 
Champion Prize at the Corn exhibit in Omaha; the yield 
from a measured acre was 133% bushels of shelled corn 
and a large amount of fodder. 
Lb. 20c., 7 lbs. 85c., 14 lbs. $1.25, 56 lbs. $4.00. 
Pvrolfiinr A variety that will mature 
excelsior unsnage (!llickor in our Xew Eng iand 
climate than any other variety of recent introduction. 
The stalks are tall and sturdy, attaining a height of 12 to 
15 feet, with dense foliage. The yield in some instances 
has been as high as 29 tons of silage per acre, but is 
usually 20 to 25 tons per acre under ordinary cultivation 
after taking from 150 to 175 bushels of ears. It usually 
matures in 80 to 90 days to the glazed state, while in some 
Eastern states seed stock has been produced. Being a 
hybrid, the seed does nor run uniform as to color, some 
showing red and white kernels as well as yellow, which 
predominate. 
Lb. 20c., 7 lbs. 85c., 14 lbs. $1.35, 56 lbs. $5.00. 
Qfri/'Lrr»<*v , e The Prize'Winner Strain. On a measured 
jUCKiicy o field n j ne acres the harvest was 819% 
bushels, an average of over 91 bushels per acre. The ear 
is much thicker than the Longfellow, cob is small, usually 
eight rows of kernels, although sometimes it has 12 rows. 
The stalks grow about as high as the Longfellow, but the 
crop matures earlier. We believe it to be one of the 
largest yielding varieties of Flint Corn. 
Lb. 20c., 7 lbs. 85c., 14 lbs. $1.35, 56 lbs. $5.00. 
SWEET CORN FOR FODDER 
Stowell’s Evergreen. (For Fodder). A Sweet Corn too 
well known to need any description. 
II F6 lbs. 90c., 12 lbs. $1.60, 50 lbs. $5.85. 
Sugar Corn for Green Fodder. We find many of our 
farmers favor this for ensilage purposes owing to the 
large percentage of saccharine matter in the stalks. To 
cut up and use for Corn fodder in the Fall there is nothing 
better. Especially good because of its thick growth 
and early maturity. Usually sown in drills for early 
Summer and Fall Corn at the rate of two bushels pei 
acre in drills 4 feet apart. 
6 lbs. 85c., 12 lbs. $1.40, 50 lbs. $4.00. 
DENT VARIETIES 
In many localities in New England the Dent varieties 
have been grown very successfully. It is a fact that the 
yield is practically double that of the Flint varieties. We 
would recommend a part of your plantings of Field Corn 
to be of the Dent varieties. 
Brewer’s Yellow Dent. Strictly a New England variety, 
that we have no hesitancy in recommending, for it has 
overcome all of the difficulties of ripening this Corn here 
in New England. This Corn was awarded First Grand 
Eureka Ensilage 
The tallest and best ensi¬ 
lage Corn; producing more 
valuable material for the silo than any other, and is also 
very productive of ears. Eureka is a choice selection of 
Southern Corn, and in its native latitude has shelled out 
100 bushels to an acre. Its value is due to its enormous 
growth and great production of leaves and ears. Grows 
12 to 15 ft. tall. Our seed of this popular white Dent 
sort has always given satisfaction. 
Lb. 20c., 7 lbs. 75c., 14 lbs. $1.25, 56 lbs. $4.00. 
I,earning Improved. One of the most popular and pro¬ 
ductive varieties, bearing, as a rule, two good ears on 
each stalk. The ears are long, with small, red cobs, well 
filled with kernels of medium size and rich golden color. 
It will ripen in from 100 to 110 days, and makes a good 
crop even in a dry season. Very strong and vigorous; 
the stalks are very leafy, making an excellent fodder; 
the kernels are so deep that it is an extra large yielder. 
We recommend it highly. 
Lb. 20c., 7 lbs. 75c., 14 lbs. $1.25, 56 lbs. $4.00. 
Minnesota No. 13. A heavy yielding, very early yellow va¬ 
riety, maturing in 90 days of corn growing weather. Grows 
to a height of 8 feet, furnishing a great amount, of fodder. 
The ears are 8 inches long, with 16 rows of fairly deep 
kernels. 
Lb. 20c., 7 lbs. 75c., 14 lb. $1.25, 56 lbs. $4.00. 
Virginia Mammoth White. There is a great variety of 
white Corns from the South sold under various names. 
Our stock is produced in Virginia, and we have had ex¬ 
cellent satisfaction with this variety. It grows large, 
plenty of foliage, excellent for either fodder or ensilage. 
Lb. 20c., 7 lbs. 60c., 14 lbs. $1.00, 56 lbs. $3.50.
