 excellent quahty. Ears small, but very tender. 

 It is not so extensively planted as it deserves 

 to be. 



Adam's Exira Early, the most 

 popular variety with market gardeners for first 

 planting. It has no fine table qualities, but as 



it grows to a good size, and is matiu-ed in abou 

 forty days from time of planting, it meets witk 

 ready sale in the market, and for these reasons 

 gardeners prefer it.
