SUGAR CORN 



Culture. Plant in hills 3 feet apart each way and 5 or 6 kernels in 

 a hill. The ground should be made rich with well-rotted manure. Hoe 

 well. 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 slight- 

 est 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. 



Floracroft Beauty Sugar Corn 



In "Floracroft Beauty" we have a Corn for earliness, size of ear 

 and quality, that has no equal on the market. It has a strong-growing stalk from 5 to 6 feet in heio-ht 

 with ample foliage and quite long blades, generally with two and ° 

 sometimes three good ears to a stalk, the ears being well set up 

 from the ground. The ears are from 6 to 7 inches in length and 

 have ten to twelve rows of good-sized deep grains, which are ex- 

 ceptionally tender and juicy, possessing a rich sweet flavor that 

 will please all lovers of this popular and delicious vegetable. Pkt. 

 10 cts., %pt. 20 cts., pt. 30 cts., my mail, postpaid ; by express, pt. 

 20 cts., qt. 30 cts., 4 qts., 85 cts., pk. $1.50. 



Surlington Hybrid. While not strictly a sweet Corn, 



this is a verj' profitable Corn to 

 grow for early market. The grains not being shriveled are hardy 

 and can be planted very early. Makes an ear 6 to 8 inches long, and 

 fills the basket quickly, and is exceedingly attractive for market. 

 Comes ill with Adams Early, and is much the same type, but with 

 ears more than double the length ; recommended for market, but 

 not sweet for home use. By mail, po.stpaid, pkt. 10 cts., pt. 20 cts., 

 qt. JO cts.; by express, qt. 20 cts., 'Apk. 50 cts., pk. 85c., bus. $3.25. 



This is a very fine, very 

 early Sugar Corn ; hardy 

 and can be planted fully as early as the Early Adams, and st td 

 does not rot easily when planted early. The stalks grow about 5 

 feet high, and mostly bear two well-developed ears to the stalk. It 

 is of extra-fine quality, very sweet and delicious. A good early 

 market sort. By mail, postpaid, pkt. 10 cts., pt. 20 cts., qt. 35 cts.; 

 by e.xpress or freight, qt. 25 cts., Hpk. 75 cts , pk. $1.25. 



Holmes* Premo 60-Day. 



Golden Bantam. 



This Corn is extra-early, very sweet 

 and of a delicious flavor. As indicated 



in its name, the grain when ready for use is a rich creamj' yellow 

 deepening to an orange-yellow as it ripens. I do not recommend 

 it as a market sort, as its color gives it the appearance of beii g 

 old, but when once used it will be popular on account of its ritli 

 llavor. By mail, postpaid, pt. 30 cts., qt. 45 cts., by express, qt. 

 30 cts., J^pk. 85 cts., pk. $1.50.
