AN EAB OP BUCK MOUNTAIN OOBN 



NEW BUCK MOUNTAIN CORN 



This is the earliest table corn in cultivation. In general appearance it resembles our celebrated 

 Burlington Hybrid, the grain being smooth, creamy and of white color. The ears, however, are not 

 quite so large, but it is ready for the table a week earlier. It is not strictly a sweet corn, and is not 

 recommended for anything save the very earliest market purposes. Its great hardiness enables it to be 

 planted from two to three weeks earlier than sugar corns like the Crosby, Minnesota or Cory. If pulled 

 when young it is very tender and is very profitable to grow for the first early market. 



Price, pkt., 10c; pt., 25c; qt., 40c, by mail, postpaid ; by express or freight, qt., 30c; peck, $1.25; 

 bush., $4.50. 



Mammoth Early Epicure Sugar Corn 



A sterling novelty. See page 5. 



To have the finest sweet corn, it must be 

 picked in just the right condition ; that is, 

 when the skin of the grain breaks at the 

 slightest puncture, and plantings should be 

 made frequently enough to have a supply at 

 this stage. The quality will be inferior if it 

 is either a few days too old or too young. 



"Peep o' Day" Sweet Corn 



A first early novelty. See page 5. 



"Holmes' Premo" Sixty=Day Corn 



See Novelties, page 5.

 ioc. each ; ears, 20c. each, postpaid.
