BURPEE'S GOLDEN BEAUTY CORN. The productiveness of the Golden Beauty is due to the economical shape of the ears and the fact that a large proportion of the stalks produce two fine ears. It is the largest grained and handsomest yellow corn we have ever seen until this year, when we became acquainted icilh the Pedrick Perfected, described below. The ears are of perfect shape, with ten to fourteen straight rows of brightest golden-yellow grains, of remarkable size, and completely filled out to the extreme end of cob. The cobs are un- usually small; when broken in half, the grains will generally reach across. The rich- ness of color and fine quality of grain make it very superior for grinding into meal. The ears are easily shelled, although the kernels are firm on the ear, and in every respect pre- sent as perfect a type as could be desired. The stalks take a strong hold in the ground ; grow vigorously to a height of eight to ten feet. In 1885 C. W. Hol- man's, West Willington, Conn., prize crop was 158% bushels shelled corn on one acre.
