Pop Goro, Did you ever see a youngster that did not enjoy popping corn, and watching the hard ker- nels burst suddenly out into balls of white,light as a feather, and deliciously crisp and toothsome ? Give every boy and girl a row of Pop Corn for his or her own. Then with nuts and apples, games to play and corn to pop our little folks will pass the long winter evenings with mirth and happiness at home. The following sorts are mostly new and of greatly improved quality. California Golden- Beautiful little ears with pointed grains that poo out large,and snowy-white. Pkt., 5c; pint, 40c. Black Beauty—This is a new Pop Corn of wonderful merit, popping exceedingly large, pure white, flaky and very tender. The grain is a rich, blue-black color,good- size, long ear and very early. It is the finest Pop Corn we eve r tried. PUt., 10c; pint, 40c: quart, 75c. Mapledale Prolific— This is a Pop Corn for profit.
