AUNT MARY'S SWEET CORN 



The Sweet Corn Supreme 



This is the most wonderful Sweet Corn we have ever grown. One grower 

 describes it as "the best Sweet Corn in the world." 



Has the most delicious flavor and keeps a long time before becoming too 

 hard to use. In fact, usually requires artificial heat to cure it for seed pur- 

 poses. 



Aunt Mary's Corn, by its excellent quality, sweetness, and flavor makes a 

 stronger appeal to the Corn-loving public than most any other variety and 

 that appeal continues long after you are tired of other Sweet Corns. 



Liberal size packets, 35c each; 3 for $1.00, postpaid. 



$2.00 per pound, postpaid. 



If after growing this wonderful Sweet Corn you are not entirely satisfied, 

 we will refund every cent you paid us for it. 



NANDINA Sinensis Compact growing type. Has a habit of sending up ad- 

 ditional shoots from around the base of the plant making it very bushy in 

 appearance. Leaves are smaller than domestica variety and turn a stronger 

 red color in fall of the year. It is also grown for cut foliage for the florist 

 trade. See page 26.
