PETER HENDERSON A CO., NEW YORK-- 



Plant for EXTRA EARLY Sweet Corn 



WHITE COB CORY. 



AX extremely early variety, usually fit to use in 

 from fifty to sixty days from seed sowing. It is 

 not only the earliest of all good sweet corns, but is one 

 of the sweetest and best. It is a sport or selection from 

 the famous "Red Cob Cory," which for years held pop- 

 ular favor as the best first early. "White Cob Cory" 

 retains all of the good qualities of its parent, with the 

 added merits of having a white cob and white kernels, 

 free from the objectionable reddish tinge that some- 

 times occurred in the red cob variety. The plants are 

 dwarf and stocky, enabling them to be closely planted ; 

 usually two ears are borne on a stalk. It is not only 

 the best first early sweet corn, but it is valuable to 

 plant late in summer for autumn use. (See cut.) 

 Price, 10c. pkt., 20c. pt., 30c. qt., $1.75 pk., $6.00 bush. 



Plant for MEDIUM EARLY Sweet Corn 



EARLY CHAMPION. 



\A/HILE this is comparatively a new variety to the 

 general public, yet it has really been grown 

 for two or three years by a few people in many sec- 

 tions of the country, and from them we hear nothing 

 but praise about it. These encomiums, and our own 

 opinions of its merits, formed from our thorough trials, 

 convince us that "Early Champion" is destined to be- 

 come the leader among medium early sweet corns. It 

 is the earliest large variety grown, being but a few 

 days later than small extra earlies. It is as early as 

 "Crosby," yet it is as large, and often larger, than 

 "Concord." "Early Champion" is a 12-rowed variety, 

 with large handsome ears filled with plump, deep 

 white kernels, that retain their milky tenderness for 

 an unusually long period. Quality and flavor sur- 

 passingly fine and sweet. Valuable for either home 

 use or for market. Verv productive. (See cut.) 

 Price, 10c. pkt., 20c. pt., 30c. qt., $1.75 pk., $6.00 bush.

Plant for MIDSEASON Sweet Corn 



THE "HENDERSON." 



THIS is an ideal corn. It follows after the early varieties, and is 

 read)' for the table about ten days to two weeks before the latest 

 sorts. The notable merits of the "Henderson" are uniformly large, 

 thick ears, averaging twelve inches in length, being compactly filled 

 from butt to tip with long milky-white kernels of luscious tenderness 

 and deliriously rich flavor. This toothsome quality is retained for a 

 much longer time than with most corns. The plants are luxuriant, 

 healthy growers, are scarcely affected by drought, and are wonderfully 

 prolific. For the home garden it is peerless, and is one of the most 

 valuable sorts grown for canning and market. (See cut.) Price, 10c. 

 pkt., 15c. pt., 25c. qt., $1.60 pk., $5.75 bush. 



Plant for LATE Sweet Corn 



STOVVELL'S 



EVERGREEN. 



N 



OW recognized everywhere as a standard variety, both for home use 

 and market, and is the general favorite. The ears are of a large 

 size, grains deep, exceptionally tender and sugary, and have the ad 

 tage of remaining longer in the green state than any other. Our s1 

 has been carefully grown and selected to avoid the tendency to a shorter 

 grain and deterioration in the evergreen character of this 1 

 sorts. (See cut.) Price, 10c. } pt,, 15c. pt., 25c. qt., $1.50 pk., $5.50 bush.
