FORREST’S HONEST SEEDS. 
FIELD OOELT- 
Being situated in one of the largest dairy districts in the United States, corn is one of the 
most critical seeds we look after in this section. How many farmers right in our own section 
buy cheap seed corn, and then wait for it to come up, but It never comes, and then they have 
an empty silo. If you could only see some of our corn growing the past year from our seed, 
we would have you for a life-long customer. Our corn is selected for seed, planted for seed, 
and harvested for seed ; well matured, cured and carefully selected, and nothing but the 
choicest is sent out. It is all tested, aud if it is not satisfactory on arrival it may be returned 
at our expense, and money refunded. If you are interested in corn, write us, we want to talk 
with you. Prices are as follows, unless otherwise noted : honest pkt. 5c, lb. 20c, postpaid ; 
bu. {1.35, 2 y 2 bu. bag $3 25. Write for special prices in large quantities. 
King of the Earlies. A new, very early maturing dent corn ; maturing with us from 
80 to 90 days. The stalks are slender, about 6 feet high, and about every stalk producing 
two good ears ; ears 8 to 10 inches long, 14 to 16 rowed, with the smallest cob we have ever 
seen, and will consequently shell more corn to the bushel. Very productive, and we recom¬ 
mend it to the northern farmers to try by the side of flint varieties. 
Early Mastodon. Originated in Northern Ohio by Mr. C. S. Clark. This is the largest 
eared and the largest grower of the early dent corn. It is a rank quick grower, and grown 
alongside of Pride of North, Teaming, it is from a foot to eighteen inches taller, and the best 
corn to ear we have ever seen ; one of the leading varieties in this section for silos. While it 
is a little later in maturing, it ears wonderfully, and we earnestly believe it will please you, 
and wish that all that raised corn for silos would give it a trial by the side of the other varie¬ 
ties. 
Learning. Stalks grow to medium size, with few suckers, extremely productive, produ- 
cing two ears on every stalk, which are large and handsome, deep orange color on a medium 
size cob. For a very early corn it is extremely popular in some sections of the country, and 
a great many prefer it to any other variety. 
Iowa Gold Aline. A11 early 90-day corn, gaining ground in large damp sections as a 
silo corn. 
Pride of tlie North. This is one of the best, and more largely grown in the Eastern 
States for ensilage than any other variety. It is a sure 90-day corn, and makes good ears and 
foliage. 
White Cap Yellow Dent. An early 90-day corn, with ears of a very large size, grow¬ 
ing six to eight feet in height, with very abundant foliage. 
Iowa Silver Mine. Similar to Gold Mine, except in color. 
Union Early Dent. This splendid new variety is being put out by as many different 
names as there are seedsmen. It is as its name implies, an extra early dent corn that will 
ripen in northern localities, formerly able to grow only flint varieties ; has a good size stalk 
and ear, bright orange color, deep grain and small red ear.
