SUGAR CORN 



1 quart to 200 hills; 10 quarts, 1 acre. 

 For the convenience of our customers we have arranged the following; list in order of the earliuess. 



The Sugar or Sweet varieties should not be planted 

 until May, or v/hen the ground has become warm, and for 

 a succession every ten days or two weeks, until the last 

 of July, in hills — for early varieties, 2x3 feet, and for the 

 late, large kinds, 3x3 feet. Give frequent and thorough 

 cultivation. Allow five to six grains to each hill, but 

 never allow more than three plants to stand. 



First Early Neck. — This variety can be planted earlier 

 than any other sort; ear short, grain white. It is not a 

 Sugar Corn, but, on account of its being largely sold for 

 table use, we class it among the Sugar Corns. Ear 3c; 

 doz. 25c; qt. 15c; pk. 60c; bush. $2.00. 



Adams' Extra Early. — Similar to the First Early Neck, 

 larger, but a fraction later; a favorite variety for early 

 markets. Ear 3c; doz. 25c; qt. 15c; pk. 60c; bush. $2.00. 



Adams' Early.— A splendid early variety and safe crop- 

 per. Doz. 25c; qt. 15c; pk. 60c; bush. $2.00. 



Premo. — "World's earliest Sweet Corn. It not only com- 

 bines all the merits of the leading early varieties, but it 

 is also really superior to them all in size, quality and 

 yield. Premo can be planted as early as the Adams, for 

 the young plants withstand slight frosts, while other va- 

 rieties are tender and the seeds will rot if planted before 

 the soil becomes warm. The stalks grow about five feet 

 high, and are very vigorous, generally bearing two well 

 developed ears to a stalk. These ears measure one to two 

 inches longer than those of Cory or Adams, and matures 

 sixty days after planting. Qt. 20c; pk. 90c; bush. $3.25. 



(New) Peep o' Day. — Is of recent introduction, and is 

 credited by many as being exceptionally early, comparing 

 favorably with the Premo of unparalleled sweetness. The 

 stalks bear from two to five ears each and are very 

 dwarf, which admits of their being planted close to- 

 gether. Qt. 20c; peck $1.25; bushel $4.00. 



Earliest Sheffield. — This new extra early Corn is the re- 

 sult of a cross between the Cory and Extra Early Adams. 

 It combines the robust growth and extreme hardiness of 

 the Extra Early Adams with the finer sugary quality of 

 the Cory. Ears average six inches in length and are well 

 filled with grains of medium size, arranged in ten or 

 twelve regular rows. The grains are juicy and of fine, 

 sweet flavor, if gathered at the proper stage. It is as 

 hardy as the Adams, ready for use earlier, and of much 

 finer quality. One of its strongest recommendations as a 

 market variety is the entire freedom from smut, which 

 destroys so much of the extra early Corn. Qt. 20c; pk. 

 $1.00; bush. $3.50. 



Kendel's Early Giant Sweet Corn. — This is not a mere 

 novelty, but is of real merit. Ears large, measuring 8 to 

 10 in. long, having 10 to 12 rows on each cob; kernels 

 pure white, sweet and tender. Qt. 20c; pk. 80c; bush. 

 $3.00. 



Perry Hybrid. — A very early 12 rowed variety, growing 

 only 4% to 5 ft. high, with ears set low on the stalk; 

 large ears, well filled; very sweet and tender. Qt. 20c; 

 pk. 80c; bush. $3.00. 



Top Notch (New).— This new extra early variety pos- 

 sesses unusual merit, produces fine large ears three days 

 later than Early Sheffield. Size of ears compare favorably 

 with the large later maturing varieties, both in quality 

 and yield. Is sure to delight all lovers of choice Sugar 

 Corn. Qt. 20c; peck 80c; bush. $3.00. 



Cory. — The popular extra early Sweet Corn. Ears are 

 fair-sized and of very fine quality. Qt. 20c; pk. 70c; 

 bush. $2.50. 



Country Gentleman. — Very deep grains, small cob and 

 exceedingly rich flavor. Often produces three to four 

 ears to the stalk. The grains are "staggered" on the cob, 

 leaving no signs of rows. Qt. 20c; pk. 90c; bush. $3.50 



Dobbin's Early Evergreen. — The ears of this new Corn 

 grow 8 in. long; are mostly 14 to 16 rows. It ripens 10 to 

 12 days in advance of Stowell's Evergreen and is equally 

 as good for all purposes. The kernels are very sweet and 

 tender. The cob is small, with irregular rows. Qt. 20c; 

 pk. 80c; bush. $3.00. 



Shaker's Early. — This is a superb early variety, with 

 large, well-filled ears; the kernels are of pearly whiteness 

 and most delicious sweet flavor. It is ready to market 

 one week after Cory Corn, while the ears are very much 

 larg-er, and it completely fills the interval between Cory 

 and Stowell's Evergreen. It is very prolific, generally 

 bearing three to four ears to the stalk. Qt. 20c; peck 

 80c; bush. $3.00. 



Trucker's Favorite Sugar Corn. — Is a very desirable sec- 

 ond early variety, of sweet and delicious flavor, produc- 

 ing a large ear well filled to the end. Qt. 20c; pk. 80c; 

 bush. $3.00. 



Early Mammoth. — Resembles very much the late Mam- 

 moth; the ears are fully as long, but more tapering, and 

 ripens two weeks earlier. Qt. 20c; pk. 80c; bush. $3.00. 



Stowell's Evergreen. — Grown more extensively than any 

 other; a favorite with canners and market gardeners for 

 late use. The ears are of large size, kernels very deep, 

 tender and sugary; very productive and remains for a 

 long time in fit condition for table use. Our stock is 

 absolutely pure and true to name. Qt. 20c; pk. 80c; 

 bush. $3.00. 



White Evergreen. — This valuable Sweet Corn possesses 

 all the good points of our Eastern-grown strain of Stow- 

 ell's Evergreen, with the additional advantage that in 

 the green state both cob and grains are pure white. The 

 quality is of the very best. There is nothing in late Corn 

 that can equal it. The stalks are strong and vigorous, 

 the ears are very large and uniformly well filled to the 

 tip with long slender grains of the most delicious flavor. 

 Our stock being grown from the originator's, is abso- 

 lutely pure and as good as can be had. Qt. 20c; peck 

 80c; bush. $3.00. 



Late Mammoth. — This variety produces larger ears, than 

 any other Sweet Corn; very weighty and profitable for 

 growers selling by the ton. Qt. 20c; pk. 80c; bush. $3.0'0.
