good many years. Archias’ Improved Golden Beauty produces a big hand- 
some golden yelléw ear, perfect in shape, very small cob with large deep 
grains. It matures in about 110 days and is one of the highest yielding open- 
pollinated varieties available today.

tip to butt with deep, close set grains—Order early!

Early Red Snowcap 
The earliest red Corn of all. Matures in 80 to 85 
days. Kernels are of a bright cherry-red color, with yel- 
lowish cap—the result of a cross between a Red Flint 
and Yellow Dent. This Corn often matures in less than 
80 days. See the farm seed price list for prices. 
Midland 
Yellow Dent 
A medium late maturing Yellow Corn, requiring normally 130 days to 
mature. The stalk is large compared with Reid’s Yellow Dent. The ears av- 
erage 7 to 914 inches long. Medium large in circumference, has a medium 
large cob. This variety is noted for its heavy yield and for its freedom from 
root rot diseases. Very few damaged ears. 
90-Day Yellow 
A quick growing yellow variety, highly desirable and popular with feed- 
ers who want an early feeding Corn. Matures in about 90 days. Archias’ 
90-Day Yellow ears are about 10 inches long, sometimes two to the stalk; 
deep, moderately rough kernels high in protein and oil content make it an 
excellent feeding Corn. 
HICKORY KING 
The white grain is so wide and deep, and the cob so small that often 
a single grain will cover the end of a broken cob. It has been called the 
Poor Man’s Corn because it can be depended upon to produce a crop on 
poor, thin land. On good land it bears 2 ears to the stalk. By mail, postpaid, 
1 Ib., 35c; 3 Ibs., 90c. By express or freight, pk., $1.70; 14 bu., $3.20.
