New Sweet Corn, Peep o' Day 



The two points of this remarkable corn are 

 its extraordinary earliness and unparalleled 

 sweetness. 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 to- 

 gether, it not only gives an early yield, but it 

 gives one of great productiveness as well, 

 sometimes doubling the yield per acre of other 

 early sorts.

Holmes' Premo 60-Day 

 Sweet Corn 



This is n very fine, very early sugar corn ; hardy and 

 can be planted fully as early as the EnrlyAdanis', and seed 

 does not rot easily when planted early. The stalks grow 

 about five feet high and mostly beiir two Avell-developed 

 ears to the stalk. It is of extra fine quality, very sweet 

 and delicious. A good early market sort. Price, pkt., 

 10c. ; pint, 20c.: qt., 35e., bv mail, postpaid; by express 

 or freight, qt., 30c.; peck, $1.25 ; bush., $4.75. 



New Buck Mountain Corn 



This is the earliest table corn in cultivation. In 

 general appearance it resembles our celebrated Burling- 

 ton Hybrid, the grain being smooth, creamy and of white color. The ears, however, are not quite so large, but it is ready 

 for tlie 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 lender and is ver.v profitable to grow for the first early market.
