G Minnesota No. 13 In 1892 when Professor Hayes of the Minnesota Experi- ment Station first took up the improvement of corn for the North, there were very few, if any, good varieties of corn. He started with quite a number of stalks from commercial sources, among which was one given the numbe}' of 18. In breeding this corn Professor Hayes looked solely to the ylgld and earliness, almost wholly disregarding the fancy points which are considered so much by Southern corn breeders. By this method the No. 13 corn has been improved and developed as a wonderful pro- ducer_for an early dent. Since its first introduction by the Minne- sota Experiment Station in 1896 it has been distributed across the United States and into some portions of Canada, and has found home in a number of localities beyond the boundaries of Minnesota. Hand sorted, shelled and graded. One-fourth bushel, $1.45; one- half bushel, $2.65; one bushel, $4.75; five bushels, $22.50. Jones Wimple Yellow Dent As the name implies it is a yellow dent corn.
