610 LEE: 81 days. 160 kernels per oz. A midseason 
hybrid developed at the Connecticut Experiment Sta- 
tion. Under favorable conditions Lee will give a 
larger ear than Lincoln but has a more limited range 
of conditions in which it will do well. The ears are 
almost cylindrical with 12 to 14 rows of rather broad 
yellow kernels. Quality only fair. We can only 
recommend Lee where a larger ear is desired and 
quality is not an important factor. Pkt. 15c; % lb.

SPECIAL LARGE KERNEL SWEET CORN SEED 
We grade all of our corn seed for size and remove the small and very large kernels. 
These large kernels 
are mostly round and where a corn planter is used require a “Round kernel plate’; but all tests have proven 
that they produce just as uniform a crop as the No. | flat kernels. 
but many of our growers have taken advantage of the lower price and used them for years.
