Berry, Clarinda, Iowa.—Dear Sir: Last spring I purchased two bushels of your Legal Tend- er seedcorn and am well pleased with it. Our banker ottered a SI prize for the best ear of corn raised in Adair county. I took one ear down to him and carried oft" the prize. If this will do you any good use it. S. H Moftit, President of Adair county (Iowa) Fair Association. EARLY Originated with C. S. Clark, ol Wakeman, Ohio, at one time the largest grower of sweet and field corn for seed in America. He says, "I claim for this corn that it is the largest eared and the largest grain early dent corn ever seen in this ;' We have grown it in this state for ten years, obtaining the seed from the originator, and our seed is thoroughly acclima- mated. We have greatly improved it in several ways and now have a better corn than Mr. Clark. One of the most prominent seed men in the U. S. was examining our seed corn this fall and said that we had the best Mastodon he ever saw, and much superior to Clark's. We have bred that rough, sharp pointed thin grain off and substituted a nice smooth grain. We have bred off to a great extent t he heavy large shank, so difficult to break off in husking. We have improved in the shape and size of grain, size of ear, and now have it much ear- lier than when we obtained it.
