Excellent Sweet Corns. 



FIRST OF ALL. 



For years, as my friends well know, I have boomed the Cory Corn to 

 the exclusion of all other sorts as the earliest variety in cultivation. I 

 DOW take pleasure, however, in offering them a variety that is even 

 ejtrlier than the Cory. This a bold statement, but it is made with due 

 deliberation, after careful test by several thousand of my customers. 

 First of All has proven itself, in this test, two days, and in some cases, a 

 week earlier than the Cory, and at the same time produces not only lar- 

 ger ears, but more of them to the stalk. It will be found an especial 

 boon to all market gardeners who desire to have the lirst sweet corn in 

 market and thereby receive the top notch prices. I need not say more. 

 Packet, 10 cents; pint, 25 cents; quart, 40 cents. 



This variety well deserves its name— None Such. Introduced first by 

 me in 1892, it has turned out to be one of the best second early varieties 

 ever put on uhe market. In quality it is simply delicious; while I have 

 reports from many customers stating that numbers of stalks contained 

 two ears at least 12 inches long, compactly filled from end to end. None 

 Such is not a white cob, but a red cob variety, and on this account alone 

 is preferred by many. I am sure all my customers will be delighted with 

 it. \Vith First of All for early. None Such to follow, and then Zig Zag 

 Evergreen for general crop there is no reason why you should not have 

 delicious sweet corn from the first of July until October.

ZIG 2AQ EVERGREEN. 



This grand new sweet corn is without doubt the most tender and 

 sweetest medium late variety ever introduced. It comes in about eight 

 days ahead of Stowell's Evergreen; the kernels very much resemble this 

 variety, but grow on the cob in zig zag fashion — hence its name. The 

 illustration below gives a good idea of an ear in a dried state. It inva- 

 riably produces two perfect ears on every stalk, and of svieh presentable 

 appearance as to readily command high prices wherever ottered. It is 

 a most excellent variety for the family garden, market gardener 

 or the canner, and I heartily recommend it to all wishing a tender and 

 delicious sweet corn. Excellent for a rotation of crops, as it can be 

 planted at any time during the season, and can always be depended 

 upon to give an abundant yield. In my trials the past summer, while 

 many varieties did not product a perfect ear on account of the long dry 

 spell in this section, almost every stalk of Zig Zag Evergreen produced 

 one or more ears of as fine corn as one could wish for. 



Packet, 10 cents; pint, 25 cents; quart, 40 cents.
