GILLESPIE'S FIRST EARLY NECK CORN. Each year our sales of the same have 

 very materially increased. It has always proven in their hands to be the very first corn that 

 they can bring to market. It is so hardy that it can readily be planted as soon as the ground 

 is in good working order, and will, from the day of its germination, hurry forward to moot 

 the early demand for fresh corn, which is always very keen, and causes this delicious, at 

 tractive and superior corn to bring profitable prices. Ear. 3c; doz. ears, 40c; packet, 5c:

 C'>rti. Matures a few days earlier tlian Crosby. It has a rich, sugar

 dens as well as for home culture. Pint, loc; quart, 20c; peck, $1.00;

BURPEE'S WHITE EVERGREEN CORN. The most valuable 

 sweet corn for main crop. It has the ideal (iiialities of the Stowell's 

 Evergreen corn, only it is pure white, making it the most desirable 

 corn for market and iiome gardeners. Pint, 15c; quart, 25c; gal., $1.00; 

 peck. S2.00; bush.. $7.00. 



EARLY PREMO SUGAR CORN. This new sweet is earlier than 

 either the Adams or Corey; the ears are larger and grain sweeter. It 

 matures in from fifty-six to sixty days. This gain of time is very 

 important, as it catches the very early market prices. The ears arc 

 from five to seven inches long. Pint, loc; quart, 20c; gal., 60c; peck. 

 Si 00: bu>h., $3.;o

 vorite. Two weeks earlier than Late Mammoth. Sweet, delicate flavor, 

 producing a large ear and a small-sized cob, which fills out to the end 

 perfectly. Pint, loc; quart, 20c; gal., 60c; peck, $1.00; bush., $3.50; 

 per doz.. 40c.

 popular with market gar<lcners for early market. Per doz., 50c; pint, 

 loc; quart. 20c; gal.. 6oc; peck, $1.00; bush., $3.50.

 sweeter. Pint. loc: quart, 20c; gal., 60c; peck, $1.00; bush., $3.50; per doz., 50c. 

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

 .\ grower knowing this has repeatedlj- 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. Pt., 

 loc: quart, 20c: gal.. 60c; peck. Si. 00: bush.. $"5.50. 



KENDEL'S EARLY GIANT SWEET CORN. We find it possesses great merit. It is very early, being fit 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. It is also a mostproductive variety and will prove a valuable acquisition to 

 every home or market gardener who plants it. Pint, loc; quart, 20c; gal., 6oc; peck, $1.00; bush., $3.50. 



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

 .ilthough 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 fountl it not equal to the ordinary sugar. To such we say you have not had the pure 

 ~tock, as no variety degenerates so quickly, without the grower is exceedingly careful. We have very frequently observed 

 samples sent out by some seed establishments as Stowell's Evergreen that were composed of several varieties, caused by 

 being grown in the vicinity. Pint, roc; quart. 20c: gal., 60c; peck, $1.00; bush., $3.00; per dozen, 50c. 



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

 -izc, having from twelve to sixteen rows. A fine market variety, and follows the New England Eight-Rowed Sugar in 

 ripenin?: ^weet and delicious. Pint, loc; 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 Ever- 

 erf-en, being sweeter and more sugary to the taste even than that well-known standard of quality. Pint, loc; quart, 20c; 

 gal., 60c: peck. $1.00: hush.. S^.^o. 



RICE POP CORN FOR POPPING OR SEED. A very handsome variety; ears short; kernels long, pointed; very 

 prolific; no variety of pop corn is superior to this for popping. loc per pound.
