New Sweet Corn 

 PEEP 0' DAY 



The two points of this remarkable corn are 

 its extraordinary earliness and unparalleled 

 sweetness, surpassing in these particulars any 

 other known variety, early or late, so that with 

 this corn the usual practice of planting several 

 varieties in succession is unnecessary, as you 

 can now plant the PEEP 0' DAY exclusively, 

 arranging the plantings a week or two apart, so 

 as to have this delicious corn throughout the 

 entire season. 



It is also wonderfully productive. The 

 early varieties of sweet corn do not, as a rule, 

 yield as heavily as the later sorts; but owing to 

 the fact that the stalks bear from two to five 

 ears each, and that they are very dwarf, which 

 admits of their being planted close together, it 

 not only gives an early yield, but it gives one 

 of great productiveness as well , sometim es doub- 

 ling the yield per acre of other early sorts.

Mammoth Early Epicure Sugar Corn 



A Large-Eared Delicious Sweet Corn 



At our Floracroft Trial Grounds, we have had under test for two years a very early, large-eared sugar 

 corn which has impressed us each year as being a new sort of sterling worth. It matures several days 

 earlier than Crosby, but with ears measuring 8 to 10 inches long, with 10 to 12 rows of grain to the ear. 

 It has a rich, sugary flavor, which makes it valuable for the home garden, and its large size and well-filled 

 ears command a quick sale in any market where a truly luscious sweet corn ,s in demand. Depending 

 upon the location and character of the soil, it will mature in from sixty to sixty-five days from the time 

 of planting. You will make no mistake in sowing it liberally. Price, pkt., 10c ; pint, 25c. ; quart, 45c, 

 by mail, postpaid; by express or freight, quart, 35c; peck, $1.50; bushel, $5.50. 



Holmes 9 Premo 60-Day Sweet Corn 



Mr. C. S. Clark and several other expert corn growers pronounce this new variety from five to seven 

 days earlier than any other sweet corn in existence. In our own tests the past season it gave us good 

 boiling ears ahead of all other corn planted, with the single exception of the New Buck Mountain. 

 It combines all the merits of the leading early varieties, and is also really superior to many of "them in 

 size, quality and yield. Holmes' Premo can be planted fully as early as the Adams, for the young plants 

 withstand slight frosts, while other varieties are tender and the seed will rot if planted before the soil 

 becomes warm. The stalks grow about 5 feet high and are very vigorous, generally bearing two well- 

 developed ears to a stalk. Pkt., 10c; pint, 25c; quart, 40c, postpaid; by express or freight, qt., 30c; 

 peck, $1.75 ; bush., $6.00.
