SUGAR CORN. 
Have you ever eaten the real Sugar Corn right out of your own garden? 
No? Then 
you cannot truthfully say you have really tasted corn! : 
For your own enjoyment, then, don’t let this season go by without planting a 
succession (19 davs to 2 weeks apart) of the luscious Golden Bantam, Country Gentle- 
man or Stowells’ Evergréen. 
When the first crop is ready, your reward begins. 
If possible, gather the ears within an hour of meal time, husk them and put them 
on to boil just before you sit down to the table, let them boil not over 8 to 10 minutes, 
smear them with butter (add salt and pepper, if you like) and pitch in! 
Now—vou know the real taste of real corn! and your only regret will be that you 
didn’t plant more of it! 
CAUTION.—If your space is limited, 
rather than one or two long rows, 
let each planting be in several short rows 
This will greatly increase the yield. 
Country Gentleman. 
GOLDEN BANTAM.—For sweetness and 
COUNTRY GENTLEMAN.—A delicious 
corn for family use. The ears are good 
sized and produce in great abundance, 
many stalks bearing three to five plump 
ears. Its long, small, milky kernels are 
full of sweetness, and as the cob is small, 
and the corn white and tender, it is sure 
to please. Recommended by the Louisiana 
Agricultural Experiment Station for can- 
ning. Packet, 10c.; 1 Ib., 40c.; 2 ibs., 75c, - 
postpaid; 11-lb. peck, $2.25, not prepaid. 
EXTRA EARLY ADAMS (50 DAYS).— 
A splendid Garden Corn, with small grains 
and ears, maturing early and bringing the 
highest prices in the market. This is a 
sweet Corn, produces ears well filled with 
tender, white grains. On account of its 
hardiness and hard, round grain, it can 
be planted very early. Packet, 10c.; 1 Ih., 
40c.; 2 Ibs., 75c, postpaid; 14-lb. peck, 
$2.00; 56-lb. bu., $7.00, not prepaid. 
STOWELL’S EVERGREEN SUGAR.— 
This is the best of all Sugar Corn. It is 
early, the ears of large size and are well 
filled. It remains green longer than any 
other variety, and is quite productive. The 
cultivation of this excellent cereal, as well 
as all other Sugar Corn, is much neglected. 
Why people will plant common field corn 
for table use, we cannot understand. Rec- 
ommended by the Louisiana Agricultural 
Experiment Station for canning. Packet, 
10c.; 1 1b., 40c.; 2 lbs., 75c., postpaid; 11-lb. 
peck, $2.25, not prepaid. 
GOLDEN EVERGREEN. Late, very 
sweet round grains; beautiful variety of 
most excellent quality. Packet, 10c.; 1 Ib., 
40c.; 2 ibs., 75c., postpaid; 11-lb. peck, 82.50, 
not prepaid. 
richness of flavor it has no equal. It isa 
hardy, early maturing variety of very 
dwarf growth and can therefore be planted 
closer than other sorts and through a long- 
er range of season. The cob is small, but 
fills out nicely with large, deep, cream- 
colored kernels, which turn to yellow when 
entirely ripe. No family garden should 
be without a plot of this excellent Corn. 
Packet, 10c.; 1 1b., 40c.; 2 Ibs., 75c., post- 
paid; 11-lb. peck, $2.25, not prepaid. 
BARDEN’S WONDER BANTAM SUGAR 
CORN.—This sugar corn has the good 
qualities of Golden Bantam, together with 
a larger ear, very productive. Stalks grow 
5 to 6 feet high and ears 8 to 10 inches 
in length filled with eight rows of rich 
gzolden-colored kernels. Very fine quality 
for market and home gardeners. Packet, 
10c.; 1 Ib., 50c.; 2 lbs., 90c., postpaid; 11-lb. 
peck, $3.25, not prepaid.

BLACK MEXICAN SUGAR CORN.—This 
corn, when very young, cooks remarkably 
white, but the ripe grain is bluish black. 
For home use, we consider it the best 
second early sort where tenderness and 
sweetness are the qualities most desired. 
It does especially well as a second early 
variety in the South. The stalks are about 
six and one-half feet high, ears about eight 
inches long and are usually eight rowed.
