The Finest Sugar Corn

•e 



The first real rival of the Shoe Peg or 

 Country Gentlemen, as large as StoAvell's 

 Evergreen, and of delicious flavor. 

 Frequently matures fine large 

 ears ten weelcs fror)i ■planting. 



Maule's Colossal has three principal points that 

 especially recommend it : 



First — Earliness. It has matured a crop in from 58 

 to 62 days under extraordinary circumstances, but can 

 generally be depended on to come to maturity inside 

 of 70 days. 



Second — Flavor. It is the most delicious sugary 

 corn 3'ou have ever eaten. 



Third — Size. It is undoubtedly the largest eared 

 early sugar corn in existence, as the ears average 

 from 7 to 9 inches in length, and frequently 2i to 3 

 inches in diameter, with 12 to 14 rows of large sweet 

 kernels that fairly melt in your mouth. 



Two or three ears are generally found on every 

 stalk; it grows from 6 to 7 feet tall, which furnishes a 

 most desirable fodder. 



Mr. C. S. Clark, of Ohio, one of the largest growers 

 of sweet corn in America has this to say : 



"Your Colossal Sweet Corn planted May 14th, 1910, laid in 

 the cold ground one month before it came np. This was 

 due to the fact that May and the fore part of last June hold the 

 record as the coldest months ever known in Ohio at this sea- 

 son of the year. During all those four weeks of cold, this corn 

 stuck and hung to life and grew, and we got a good stand of it, 

 and it came on and made the best crop of sweet corn in North- 

 ern Ohio where hundreds of acres of all sorts are grown. 



"This is a fact, that it is the best field of sweet corn today in 

 all this section. Therefore, we ha^e a right to he more than 

 pleased with this corn. The ears are nearly as large as 8tow- 

 eirs, and it is sweet and tender and of fine quality, with fodder 

 just as large and more ears per stalk on the average. 



'■Market gardeners, canners, hotels and the sweet corn grow- 

 ers will appreciate having this variety to come in just after 

 the early sorts are gone and before the late sorts are ready. It 

 is a very strong grower, and I have never seen a sweet corn 

 which grows the ears so far away from the stalk on a long 

 strong shank, ears up 3 feet from the ground, making it the 

 most convenient corn to pick otrthe stalk I ever saw.' 



Colossal is a Genuine Money-Maker 

 if There Ever Was One 



Read this story. A prominent market gardener of 

 Philadelphia brought his first load of Colossal to mar- 

 ket. It sold like hot cakes. The next time he came 

 to town he had to put it under his stall so as not to 

 disappoint his customers of the week before. It sold 

 as quickly as before. With his second planting peo- 

 ple would not take good Stowell's or Country Gen- 

 tlemen until they found him sold out of Colo.ssal. 

 Last year this market gardener plauted one-half peck. 

 This coming year he will sow a bushel. This is only 

 one case; there were hundreds, similar. Already, Oct. 

 1911, we are promised a large demand, and in conse- 

 quence solicit early orders. 



Packet, 10 cents; pint, 25 cents; quart. 45 cents; 2 quarts, 

 90 cents, postpaid. By express, or freight, not prepaid, 

 quart, 35 cents; peck, 8L75; bushel, 86.00.
