CULTURE. Seed of the sweetest varieties is liable to rot if planted in wet or cold ground- 

 Yet if we have an early warm spell in .Spring, it may pay us to take some risks. Often the 

 plants, when once up, will escape injury by a belated light frost. Plant in warm soil .S or 6 

 kernels to a hill making the rows 3 feet apart for the dwarf er early sorts and 4 feet apart for the 

 taller late sorts. Hills to be 2 to 3 feet apart in the rows, thin out to three plants in a hill. Hoe 

 often and draw soil up to the stem, break off side shoots. 



To have the finest Sweet Com, it must be picked in just the right condition: that is when the 

 skin of the grain breaks at the slightest pressure, and plantings should be made frequently 

 enough to have a supply at this stage. The quality will be inferior if it is either a few days 

 too old or too young.

 demand for fresh Corn, which is alwa.vs very keen and causes this delicious, attractive and 

 superior Corn to bring profitable prices. Per Ear 5c. Doz. Ears 35c. 100 Ears $2.50. Pt. 10c.

 market sales; makes a first-class Crop Corn for feeding stock. The ear is large, handsome,

 profitable crop. Per Ear 5c. Doz. 35c. Pt. 10c. Qt. ISc. 4 Qts. 30c. Pk. SOc. Bus. $1.50.

SECOND EARLY OR INTERMEDIATE 



1068. Peep-o-Day. The two points to this remarkable Corn are its extraordinary earli- 

 ness and unparalleled sweetness. ,So marked is its sweetness and delicacy of flavor, that many 

 of our customers now plant PEEP-O-DAY exclusively, arranging the plantings a few days 

 apart so as to have this delicious Com throughout the season. It is wonderfully productive. 

 Our crops for three years almost double the yield per acre of any other variety we have grown, 

 early or late. Incredible as this may seem, it is readily accounted for by the fact that the stalks 

 bear from 2 to 5 ears each and the growth being dwarf — about 4 feet — admits of a ver\' close 

 planting. Prices: Pkt. 5c. Pt. 10c. Qt. 20c. 2 Qts. 35c. 4 Qts. 60c. Pk. $1.10. Bus. $4.00.

A Splendid Word of Encouragement 



Gentlemen: — I want to tell you that I have been buying 

 your seed 12 years, and they are the best I got anywhere. 

 Last spring I bought numerous seed from you, and tho' 

 the weather was distressingly dry, I don't believe a seed 

 failed to germinate. I tell you this because I kyiozv a word 

 of praise encourages one.
