Book Description

The ears are short, but the cob is very small, and the kernels of extraordinary depth, pearly whiteness, and are irregularly crowded together on the cob, as shown in the illustration. The Ne Plus Ultra is a medium early variety, and while of small size, is of such exquisite quality that for private use it is certain to be in great demand. (see cut.) Price, 40 cts. Per pt. 70 cts.
