Field Seed Corn 
Ross’ Genuine 
Eureka Ensilage Corn 
Has a Record of Producing More Tons Per Acre Than 
Any Other Ensilage Variety 
The Eureka is a large kernel white corn introduced by 
Ross Bros. fifty years ago and we still offer the genuine 
Eureka, which is superior to many varieties sold under 
this same name. 
For the protection of the planter, Eureka comes put 
up in trade-marked bags and our suggestion is that you 
accept your Eureka Seed Corn in no other package. 
Hardy and rugged characteristics; Eureka Corn germi- 
nates surprisingly well in cold, wet springs, and today 
farmers everywhere heartily approve planting the Ross

Longfellow Flint

ern New England. Ears are 8-rowed and of remarkable 
length—12 to 14 inches, with occasionally one 15 inches.

but not so large but that they make excellent and easily 
handled dry stover. % pk., 45c; pk., 80c; bu., $3.00. 
One pound of seed will plant 200 hills or 300 feet 
of row; 10 to 12 pounds will plant an acre. 
Best Yellow Varieties 
(Yellow). A yellow variety matur- 
Bantam Evergreen ing about 10 days after the Golden 
Bantam and a week earlier than the Stowell’s Evergreen 
white. It has an ear three times the size of Golden Ban- 
tam and runs 12, 14 and 16 rows to the ear. The stalk 
is about 6 feet tall and is perhaps 1 foot shorter than 
Stowell’s Evergreen and 2 feet taller than Golden Bantam. 
The Bantam Evergreen has the. tender and sweet quali- 
ties of the Golden Bantam and combines the quality of 
the Golden Bantam with the productiveness of Stowell’s 
Evergreen. As a table variety it is unexcelled. Pkt., 15c; 
Ib., 30c; 2 Ibs., 55c; 10 Ibs. or over, 22¢ per Ib. 
Outstanding variety, very heavy pro- 
Improved Bancross ducer, aioe eared and about five 
days earlier than Golden Cross Bantam, having all of the 
qualities of the Bantam and in addition, earliness and 
larger size. We are inclined to think that this variety 
will soon be a rival of Golden Cross Bantam. Pkt., 15c; 
Ib., 40c; 2 lbs., 75c; 10 Ibs. or over, 30c per Ib.
