A white field corn, which has the largest grains, with the small- est cob, of any white corn ever introduced. So large are the grains and so extremely small the cob that on an ear broken in half a single grain will almost completely cover the cob section. Of strong, vigorous growth, and yields splendid crops on light soil, and is a desirable variety where the season is long enough to mature it; but we do not recom- mend it north of Central Ohio. Price, per peck, 50c.: bushel, $ NOTE—Sample of this corn free for in- spection on receipt of 2c. stamp. THE IOWA StLVER MINE. Stalk grows to a height of about seven or eight feet and sets the ears about three and one-half to four feet from the ground, just the right height for easy picking. Ears measuring from ten to twelve inches m length and weighing one and one-half pounds are not uncommon. Just think of it 47 ears make a bushel. It is a very hardy variety, and a great drought resister, and summing it all up, it's the best com ever introduced. The acme of perfection, unsurpassed and unsurpassable. The largest ear 100-day corn in existence. We challenge competition. Don't fail to try it. Send in your orders to us at once before the choicest stock is sold. Price, 50c. per peck; $ per bushel. Evergreen Seed Sweet Corn. For fodder, soiling or ensilage purposes—the finest feed in the world. Our stock which we have to offer is very fine, and was dried in buildings built for the purpose. It has been carefully tested and grows nicely. Every breeder, dairy- man and farmer should sow sweet com for fodder, as its richness, tenderness and sweetness make it very desir- able for feeding stock. We sow in drills or broadcast. When sown broadcast use two to three bushels per acre; when sown in drills use half that quantity. Price
