GOLDEN CREAM SWEET CORN.

270 Golden Cream Sweet Corn 



A Golden Yellow Country Gentleman 



This new yellow grained sweet corn has become 

 very popular on account of its delicious flavor. 

 Its sweetness and tenderness resemble both 

 parents, Golden Bantam and Country Gentleman. 

 It is as early as the former. The stalks grow about 

 four to five feet high, and bear from two to four 

 ears which vary in size but average about five 

 inches in length, rather smaller than the old- 

 fashioned sweet corn, but easily handled in eating. 

 The kernels are long and pointed and are borne o~a 

 a very slender cob in irregular rows. In its green 

 state the kernels are light yellow but they cook to 

 a bright golden yellow. 



Packet, 10 cts.; pint, 30 cts.; quart, 50 cts., 

 postpaid. By express or frelgltt, not prepaid, 

 qt., iO cts.; 4 qts., §1.10; pk., $^2.00; bu., S7.50. 



224 



Premo 



One of the earliest sweet corn, reaching maturity 

 in about 60 days and combines all the merits of 

 the leading early varieties, and is superior to many 

 of them in size, quality and yield. Premo can be 

 planted fully as early as the Ad8.ms, for the young 

 plants wiiLstand slight frosts, whiie the other 

 varieties are tender, "j he stalks grow about 5 feet 

 high, and are very vigorous, generally bearing two 

 well-developed ears to the stalk. 



Packet, 10 cts.; pint, 25 cts.; qnart, 40 cts., 

 postpaid. By express or freight, not prepaid, 

 qt., 30 cts.; 4 qts., 75 cts.; pk., SI. 25; Iju., $4.75. 



225 Maok's Improved Giant Ssigar 



The originator of this grand strain, one of the 

 most successful market gardeners in the jS'orth- 

 west, claims it to be the largest and best sweet 

 corn grown, and any one desiring sugar corn 

 producing ears of immense size, which are at the 

 same time of delicious flavor, will do well to give 

 this Improved Giant a thorough trial. It is late. 

 The stalks are comparatively short, and so thick 

 and strong they stand up well against storms and 

 rains. The ears are frequently 12 inches or more 

 in length, and of proportionate thickness, well 

 formed and exceedingly handsome. In sweetness, 

 succulence, depth of grain and fine table quality 

 Maule's Improved Giant will be found hard to 

 beat. I recommend it to private or market 

 gardeners. 



Packet, 10 cts.; pint, 25 cts.; quart, 40 cts., 

 postpal«l. Bv express or freisilit, not prepaid, 

 qt., 30 cts.; 4 qts., $1.00, pk., $1.75; bu., $6.00. 



226 Mamimoth White Cory 



The ears are very handsome, with no openings 

 between the rows at the base. Grains large and 

 white and of remarkably good quality for such an 

 early sort. The size and beauty of this variety 

 give it ready sale even when the market is over- 

 stocked. Fine for home or market gardeners. 



Packet, 10 cts.; pint, 2.5 cts.; qnart, 40 cts., 

 postpaid. By express or frets;ht, not prepaid, 

 qt., 30 cts.; 4 qts., Sl.OO; pk. ,81.75; bn., $6.00. 



227 Adam's Extra Early 



Not so sweet nor as early as Premo, but decid- 

 edly more hardy. Is welcomed on the table if 

 pulled promptly after reaching maturity. The 

 grains are tender and white, and the ear presents 

 a fair and attractive appearance. In general de- 

 mand by truckers and market gardeners. 



Packet, 10 cts.; pint, 20 cts.; qnart, 35 cts., 

 postpaid. By express or freight, not prepaid, 

 qt., 23 cts.; 4 qts., 55 cts.; pk., $1.00; b«., $3.30. 



Everyone who has seen this Corn remembers 

 it and the delicious sweetness and fine grain 

 lualities in spite of Its dark color, make it 

 nore and more of a favorite every year. Grains 

 rhen first perfected are pure white, and are 

 ;hen at their best for table use. Pkt., 10 cts.; 

 !»t., 20 cts.; qt., 35 cts., postpaid. By ex- 

 ?ress or freight, not prepaid, quart, 25 

 Sts.; 4 qts., 73 cts.; peck, $1.23; bnshel, $4.50. 



221 Stowell's Evergreen 



standard main crop variety. Strong and 



rigorous .stalks, seven to eight feet high; pro- 



iuces ears eight inches long with 16 or more 



'ows of the finest sugary grains. This variety 



las gained and maintained a reputation for pro- 



luctiveness, fine rich flavor and sweetness, deep 



let tender white grains, making it the most 



Jopuiar favorite. In market, home, or cannery 



\ovr^ ^I'^^ays is a success. Packet, 10 cts.; pint, 



imlJOcts.; quart, 33 cts., postpaid. By express 



iik^r freight, not prepaid, quart, 25 cents; 



uttqnarts, 73 cts.; peck, $1.23; bnshel, $4.75. 



217 



Zig Zag Evergreen 



A medium to late Shoe Peg variety. Ma- 

 tures about eight days ahead of Stowell's Ever- 

 green; the kernels are shaped like those of Stow- 

 ell's Evergreen; but the arrangement on the cob 

 is entirely different ; so peculiar, in fact, as to 

 give the corn its name. Two perfect ears to the 

 stalk, Invariably. Pkt., 10 cts.; pt., 25 cts.; 

 qt., 40 cts., postpaid. By express or freight, 

 not prepaid, quart, 30 cts.; 4 quarts, $1.00; 

 peck, $1.75; bnshel, $6.00. 



232 Sugar Corn for Green Forage 



For cutting in the green state, for summer 

 forage, .sweet corn is superior to any of the 

 ordinary field corns. I recommend it especially 

 to dairymen, for use during .July, August and 

 September, when pasturage is affected by dry 

 weather. It forms a cheap and wholesome feed 

 for cows, as every part of the stalk and leaves 

 are relished. Packet, 10 cts.; pint, 20 cts.; 

 quart, 30 cts., postpaid. By express or 

 freight, not prepaid, qnart, 20 cents; 

 4 quarts, 45 cts.; peck, 75 cts;. bnshel, $2.75.
