The Shoe Peg Corn, introduced by vis someyears 

 since, has become very popular and well known. 

 The Country Gentleman, which was originated for 

 the express purpose of excelling the Shoe Peg, pos- 

 sesses all its superior qualities, viz : the deepest 

 grain, smallest cob, and richest flavor of all sweet 

 corns, and resembles Shoe Peg in every other re- 

 spect, except that the ears are nearly t'wice as large, 

 as shown in the photograph above, which is of an 

 average ear, eight inches in length. Notwith- 

 standing the greater size of the ear, it is fully as 

 productive, producing three to four good ears to 

 the stalk. We recommend it as the best sweet corn 

 now before the public for the private garden. Pkt.^

BURBANH EARLY MAINE SWEET CORN. 



When Mr. E. W. Burbank, of Maine, wrote us 

 three years ago that he had originated a pure white 

 Sweet Corn earlier than Cory, we were at first in- 

 clined to doubt his statement, but his claim has now 

 been confirmed by our own trials, as well as by many 

 of our Market Garden customers, who write they find 

 it to be fully three to five da}\s earlier, with many- 

 other decided advantages over the famous Cory 

 Corn. The ear is much longer and larger, with a 

 pure white cob, kernels rich cream white, sweet and. 

 juicy. Stalk grows to medium height, and on good 

 soil will average two ears. For large, white ears, 

 sweetness, and the length of time it remains fit for 

 use, Burbank's Early Maine; takes first place as 

 the finest extra early Sweet Corn for both the market 

 gardener and private planter. Pkt., loc; pt., 20c.; 

 qt., 40c., postpaid. Qt., 25c.; peck, I1.15 ; bush.,

NEW WHITE CORY SWEET CORN. 



We were the finst seedsmen to introduce the 

 now popular Cory Corn, eight years ago, otir supply 

 having been first obtained from Mr. Joseph Cory, the 

 originator, while on a visit to his farm in Rhode 

 Island. For several years selections have been 

 made of the few white grains that always appeared 

 in the Cory until we now have a thoroughbred 

 White Cory Corn, entirely free from the objection- 

 able red color, making it look much nicer for the 

 table. In earliness, dwarf habit and other respects, 

 it is exactly the same as the well-known Cory, 

 which it will undoubtedly entirely supplant when 

 generally introduced. Pkt., ioc.;pt., 20c.; qt., 40c., 

 post-paid. Qt.,25c.; peck, $[.15; bush., $4.00.
