The Palm champion ear was the
first winner of the w. K. Kellogg
National Corn Trophy, handsome
silver and enamel cup made by 9sfany
of New York at a cost of $1,000. Mr..
Kellogg, as the originator and manu-
facturer of Toasted Corn Flakes, natur-

opment of the higher grades of corn,
for the company of which he is presi-
dent, the Kellogg Toasted Corn Flake
Co., requires ten thousand bushels of
corn a day for the making of its pro-
duct. The Kellogg trophy was offered
to be awarded in annual competition
for the best single ear of corn until
won twice by the same producer. The
fact that the Kellogg product is made
only from selected white corn, while
the winning ear was pronounced
yellow type, was peculiar feature.
The Kellogg trophy was won in
1910 at Columbus, Ohio, by r. A.
James, of Charleston, Illinois, with a
magnificent ear of Reid s Yellow Dent,
but not so perfect an ear as that
which originally won the trophy and
which has become known as "the best
ear of corn ever grown
