In recent years we have introduced several new varieties of sweet corn, all of which have now become 

 leading standard sorts. From ovir trials and experience with the New Champion, however, we predict 

 that when fully introduced it will become the leader of them all. Mr. E. B. Clark, of Connecticut, is one 

 of the largest growers of Seed Sweet Corn in this country, and we know of no one who is a better author- 

 ity on the subject; he writes us as follows: " New Champion is the largest and best early com we know 

 of. It ripens a little earlier than Crosby's Extra Early, with an ear larger than Concord ; in fact, many 

 of the ears grow fully as large as Evergreen. It is lo and 12 rowed and pure white in color. Its earli- 

 ness and large size will certainly make it one of the most desirable for market or home use." Per pkt., 

 loc; pint, 25c.; qt., 45c., post-paid; qt., 30c.; peck, I1.25; bush., I4.00, by freight or express. 



NEW ZIG-ZAG EVERGREEN 

 SWEET CORN ******** 



THE 



WEETEST OF ALL 

 >UGAR CORNS 



This new sweet corn came to us so highly recommended that we gave it an exhaustive trial at Plora- 

 croft Trial Grounds last season, and are glad to say that the high recommendation given it was not the 

 least overdrawn; we found it one of the sweetest and best late S'weet Corns we have ever grown, not 

 even excepting the celebrated Country Gentleman and Shoe Peg. The ears resemble Stowell's Ever- 

 green in size and shape, except that the kernels are placed irregularly or zig-zag upon the cob, which is 

 always an indication of great sweetness in any variety of sugar corn. Per pkt., loc; pint, 20c.; qt., 40c., 

 post-paid ; qt., 25c.; peck, ;gi.oo ; bush., I3.50, by freight or express.
