 from flftv-six to sixtv davs. The ears are from five to seven inches long.

EXTRA EARLY EVERGREEN. For many years the Stowell's Evergreen has been the most popular 

 sweet corn. A grower knowing this has repeatedly made selections for earliness, and the result is the 

 "Extra Early Evergreen." It ripens about ten days earlier and produces ears a trifle shorter than the 

 Stowell's, but the quality is equally as good. Pint, 10c; quart, 20c; gal., 55c; peck, 90c; bush., $3.00.

 for use in sixty days from planting. The ears are large, eight to ten inches in length, the majority having 

 twelve rows to a cob. Kernels pure white, very sweet and tender. Pint, 10c; quart, 20c; gal. 55c; peck, 

 90c; bush., 53. 00. 



STOWELL'S EVERGREEN SUGAR. This is not only the most celebrated, but the most popular of all the 

 varieties, although not an early sort. It is, without any exception, the best for table use of the entire lot, 

 although quite late. Some may observe they have tried it and found it not equal to ordinary sugar. To 

 such we say you have not the pure stock, as no variety degenerates so quickly, without the grower is ex- 

 ceedingly careful. We have very frequently observed samples sent out by some seed establishments as 

 Stowell's Evergreen that were composed of several varieties, caused bv being grown in the vicinity. Pint, 

 10c; quart, 20c; gal., 60c; peck, $1.00; bush., $3.00; per doz , 50c. 



LARGE LATE MAMMOTH SUGAR CORN. The largest of all the sugar varieties, producing ears of 

 immense size, having from twelve to sixteen rows. A fine market variety, and follows the New England 

 Eight Rowed Sugar in ripening; sweet and delicious. Pint, 10c; quart, 20c; gal., 60c, peck, $1.00; bush., 

 $3.50; per doz., 50c. 



COUNTRY GENTLEMAN'S SWEET CORN. The deep shoe-peg kernels are placed irregularly, but 

 compactly upon the cob. It is very prolific, generally bearing three to five ears to the stalk, and matures a 

 little before Stowell's Evergreen, being sweeter and more sugarvto the taste even that well-known standard 

 of quality. Pint, 10c; quart, 20c; gal., 60c; peck, 51.00; bush , $3.50.
